Looking for a narrow baffle small footprint speaker
Devore Super Nines  
Building my 1st real system. Need advice. Hoping to pair Luxman507uxii/Dyaudio Evoke20.
I have the Luxman LX-380 and a 550axII and love the Dynaudio Heritage Specials with both of them. Lux and Dynaudio are a great match.  
Speakers for Luxman LX-380
I have this fantastic amp and have the following speakers: Devore Super Nines, Harbeth 30.2XD, Dynaudio Heritage Specials and Magnapan LRS. The Maggie’s sound terrible with this amp but the other three sound great. I probably play the Super Nines ... 
Recommendations for a phono stage: Gold Note turntable w/ MC cartridge to ARi50.
Thanks for everyone’s suggestions. I’ll most likely increase my budget up to 1K.  
what amplification are you running with your Dynaudio Heritage Specials?
I've used my HS's with a Luxman 550axMarkII, a Luxman LX-380 integrated tube amp, the Cronus Magnum III and a Musical Fidelity 6si. To my tastes the 550 and the MF6si sound fantastic although the LX-380 is close. I sold the CMIII and just acquired... 
Using two Luxman integrated amplifiers together
@bobheinatz  I think you're right about the HS's and am currently trying a Musical Fidelity 6si with them. 😀 I just went back to a single Luxman because I couldn't tell any difference.  
Using two Luxman integrated amplifiers together
@ryder  Finishing up a long week, relaxing, listening to Ice Cream Man by Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters via Qobuz on the Dynaudio HS's  and it's like "damn that sounds nice".  
Using two Luxman integrated amplifiers together
@ryder  im trying to find the time to do a comparison between the two amps and the two speakers but I’m working too much. actually the Harbeth sounds the best to me paired with a  musical fidelity 6si amp I have but the Luxmans tone controls let... 
Anyone else order Caladans from Clayton Shaw?
I had to cancel my order due to unforeseen circumstances. So whoever is in line for the cherry you just moved up a notch. I’m still probably 2 years out for a Decware having ordered in April 2023. I’m sticking with my Devore’s, Harbeth and Dynaudi... 
Streamers under $1500
Eversolo or the Cambridge are both within your budget and get overall good review. I personally like the Eversolo DMP-A6 interface over the Cambridge   
If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments?
I’m curious about this. I think my system sounds pretty good but am wondering with room treatment would it sound better. Without spending a bunch of money how does one evaluate this?    
Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line
Have you looked at the Eversolo DMP8?  1/3 the price.  
Looking for... Integrated tube amp with phono
Try a Luxman integrated 505   
Anyone else order Caladans from Clayton Shaw?
@middlemass  I feel ya. Agree about the customer service. It took 2 online inquiry, an email and a phone call before I got a call back from Clayton. Compare this to the Eversolo I bought online and the owner called me the same day to thank me for... 
The Psychology of Constant (Equipment) Change
I myself wonder about my gear fetish; 3 amplifiers and 4 sets of speakers, soon to be 5. I just like to mix things up a bit.. matching amps and speakers. I wonder though if I sold everything and bought just one system would I like the sound qualit...
