| Subwoofer for music, how low? Get a pair of REL S2 SHO's. The T9's are too small. | |
| Luxman 509X, 590AXII, or Gryphon Diablo 300 for B&W 802d3 It's funny because if I were to dream of adding a 2 channel amp to my system I would pick the Luxman LX Integrated amp. It is supposed to be exceptional. If you need the name of the dealer to buy this from let me know. He can save you $ thousan... | |
| Magico A5 or KEF blade 2? I think the Rockport's sound much better than the Magico. Magico sounded sterile and thee Rockports like an instrumeent. | |
| Devore or Audio Note or other sensitive speakers: wanting to listen in Denver I would recommend Soundings off Belleview in the Denver Tech Center. While you are there have Jess demo their Master Set. I am going to have them do this with my system in January. Their Chario bookshelf speakers image well. | |
| How long do you or should you keep your gear. Out of curiosity, I visited one of the high end retail shops in Denver to listen to Magico speakers. I am not sure why people in this group brag about them. They sounded pretty sterile. They had a pair of Rockports sitting in the same room and ... | |

| How do you get Happy as an Audiophile? bjesien My room measures 12.2' x 18'. I have hardwood floors with a 9 x 12 Persian rug. Systems consists of ARCAM AVR550, Paradigm Prestige 85F towers, two Rell S2 SHO subwoofers, BlueSound Node 2i and OPPO 105 blue ray player. I just spent abo... | |
| Bluesound Node 2i vs Upscale streamers I wonder if I added a Luxman 905 Amp to my ARCAM AVR550 and used my ARCAM as a surround processor for TV and movies if I would hear a noticeable difference? I have always heard you get more for your money by upgrading speakers first then amp. | |
| Advice regarding streaming please. I inserted a CD in my OPPO 105 the first time in the past 2 years and I was surprised how good my system sounded. Maybe playing a CD sounds better than my BlueSound Node 2i? | |
| Magico A5, Wilson SabrinaX, or PS Audio FR30? Is your system located in an unfinished basement or garage? I would imagine concrete floor would reflect sound and create echos. | |
| How do you get Happy as an Audiophile? So far, I think this hobby is for the obsessive compulsive. Right now I like the sound of my Harman Kardon in my car the best. The sound surrounds me. I may not get a sound stage but it sounds better than my home system. I am beginning to thin... | |
| Two of the most powerful words ever I think we all ask these questions. Do you set up a BlueSound using RCA's to get complete unfold of MQA or do you connect it using digital cable to use a higher quality DAC in your amplifier? Can you really hear a difference in MQA? Who do you ... | |
| HOW CRITICAL ARE JUMPER CABLES When I used jumpers I used the same as my speaker wires. However, I upgraded my speaker wires to bi-wire. | |
| Is Pretty Good Good Enough? Listening Habits In The World Of Streaming Services. I must be deaf because I stream Tidal on my BlueSound Node 2i and I am able to listen to hi-res music (higher than CD quality). Since I purchased my BlueSound, I have not played a CD in my OPPO 105. Since when does a 16 bit CD have better qualit... | |
| When choosing new Speakers, what matters most to you? To me, I think it is very important to look for very efficient speakers. This not only allows to drive them with less power and as a result might help to reduce the overall cost of the system. If you drive these with amplifiers that have plenty ... |
