| Reference 3A choices? Chazz,I'm leaning toward the Veena, actually. Though I'm still flirting with the idea of smaller monitors. I've considered the Zu Druids also, and the Devores have just recently crossed my radar. I live in Tucson, so unfortunately most of these br... | |
| Reference 3a mm de capo vs. ProAc Response 2 Very interesting, Dopogue. I've encountered another strange twist. John Ruttan, suggested I try out a Vandersteen X2 50k high pass filter capacitor. It plugs directly into my amp's input between it and the CDP, and will limit bass output some, but... | |
| Reference 3a mm de capo vs. ProAc Response 2 Marty and Dave,Very interesting. I must say I would LOVE the Merlin VSM's or the Gallo Ref. 3's. Marty, you're right in thinking that the Merlins are out of my budget. But as you suggested, I have looked seriously at the TSM monitors. Still a bit ... | |
| Reference 3a mm de capo vs. ProAc Response 2 I'm beginning to lean toward the ProAc R2's myself, but I am a bit leery about appropriate stands for them too. All reviewers strongly recommend $700 Target stands that are no longer in production. Does anyone know of a modern day substitute that ... | |
| Ascend Acoustics Sierra-1s VS ACI Sapphire XLs Thanks Newbie! I was aware of ACI's closure, but have heard so many great things about the Sapphire XLs. But I will try to get in touch with Dave at Ascend. Thank you for the info! | |

| speakers to mate with Fisher 500c receiver? Great feedback so far. I appreciate all of your thoughts and I'm nowing researching your suggestions. BTW, I'm hoping to possibly sell the Vandy's and then spend around $1500 or less on replacement speakers. Monitors or floorstanders are both a po... | |
| The Hub: Okay. It's all my fault. All your points are very well taken. As an audiophile and former ad industry account exec., I do believe careful crafting of ad copy and marketing can go a very long way in accelerating the sale of whatever a person might be selling for the price ... | |
| Suggested power tubes for Onix SP3 integrated amp? Sfar-Thanks so much for the input. I'll have to do more investigating and will likely try the 6p3s-3's just for fun. And I have heard many good things about vintage Tung Sols. Happy listening! | |
| recommended 6922 tubes for a moderate price? Thanks so much gentlemen! I plan on heeding all advice given and checking with several of the websites recommended! And I appreciate the caveat emptor for ebay. Once I make a purchase I'll update this thread and let you all know the results.Hope y... | |
| best biwire speaker cables for under $300?? Thanks for the responses! I actually have anti-cables that I tried in a biwire configuration with my Vandys and they did improve bass response somewhat, but the highs were rolled off noticeably and decay on notes seemed to be missing. I've tried t... |
