Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Rebbi,I didn't realize you are using the Unico with your Ohms.Great amp! I really, REALLY wish I would not have sold mine. That amp is amazingly subtle; it doesn't 'wow' the listener in the first five minutes, but after listening for extended peri... 
Audio Research AR 5600 MkII
well, i went to have a closer look and although the inside was clean and it ran a set of cheap speakers that were lying around for a short while, it developed very bad distortion within a few minutes of playing. ...decided it wasn't worth any battle. 
Audio Research AR 5600 MkII
for some reason, i also seem to recall seeing such a product when i was younger... It's all very vague, though...wish i could find ANY information on it.I guess i'm just going to have to try it out and see how it performs. 
Audio Research AR 5600 MkII
i'm going to have to take a closer look at it. It seemed to be fairly hefty and robust. Rgurney.. are you certain they never did? Do you have a link to an archive perhaps? 
Audio Research AR 5600 MkII
i'm positive.It's an 'audio research ar5600 mkII limited edition receiver'

Arcam A80 Owners - Please Help
if your arcam is as i remember arcam being (slightly warm, laid back), then I suspect the monitor audio gs10 would be a nice combo. Just a few hours ago, i auditioned a pair of Quad 12l w/ my sugden amp (a48b). The quads were not broken in, but i ... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Rebbi - KEEP YOUR IMPRESSIONS COMING, man! This thread is invaluable to me, as both your speakers in question are models i'm looking into purchasing myself. Great to hear first-hand impressions 
Good speakers for a low budget
Soix - oh no you didn't! hahahah (if she's into...)Too funny 
Sugden A48B
Genkides -Thanks for the tip! I will definitely look into chatting w/ him.Magnumpi - I'm glad to hear you like the Quads. I have read that the active quads are quite a bit better, even, than the standard 12L. Know anything about that?So far, every... 
Sugden A48B
Macrojack- thanks for your recommendation of the Reference 3A, but when I last auditioned these 'wonder speakers', i was underwhelmed. At that time, I ended up w/ a pair of StudioLab Reference 1's which i later swapped for a pair of Neat Mystiques... 
Sugden A48B
the nht's are rated at 86db/ w/m, but are still relatively easy to drive speaker load. The room is 9x 14-ish, source is Rotel rcd971 (old and sterile, but sounded pretty good when paired w/ my old Unico and Neat Mystiques).Cables = variety of cabl... 
Sugden A48B

Dolan amps and preamps

Hi End rack really deliver?
Haven't read all the posts here, but I'll chime in for a quick second to say that racks definitely influence sound.I've never owned a nice rack, but I used to have my system on a cheapo tv unit... Moved it to another cheapo Ikea tv stand...the thi...
