| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Most likely I will sell my current ls50s here on audiogon unless I decide to keep them and maybe shed something else in a different room. I will be more likely to keep them if the sub is not needed with the metas. Going used prices appear to be as... | |
| Tweaks you got rid of because they were not effective (enough)? Describing the potential problems or issues that require tweaking is not so hard. Nor is coming up with generic terms for it.What often is hard though is not only recommending specific tweaks because "they work" but explaining how they work and wh... | |
| Tweaks you got rid of because they were not effective (enough)? Can't think of any. Some required further tweaking to get right, like IC changes, I don't tweak unless needed. But when I do....... | |
| Poor Fritz No they are not. Oh yes they are! Go figure! | |
| Poor Fritz They are close enough for me. | |
| $1500 to spend... It’s a good amp. 50 w/ch should do well up to moderate volume. | |
| Speakers which always sound good I'm checking them out!I'm checking them out!I got it figured out!I got it figured out!There's good points and bad points.....Find a speaker!Find myself a speaker that always sounds good...... | |
| Once Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson And The Band Will check that out. thanks. | |

| Proud Harbeth p3esr owner - need help tweaking/troubleshooting Yes c5i is Class D ( as is Rogue Sphinx) but also all digital, all in 1. There is phono and line level analog inputs though so external DAC could be used but frankly it has everything one might need save perhaps a MC phono input and it all sound... | |
| Proud Harbeth p3esr owner - need help tweaking/troubleshooting Another good one that ones up for about $1k used on occasion is Bel Canto c5i. I have one and like it very much. If it did not work out Rogue was going to be my next choice but am happy with the smooth liquid sound of the c5i sans tubes. Never eve... | |
| Proud Harbeth p3esr owner - need help tweaking/troubleshooting Just at a glance the unusual thing with that amps specs is it makes virtually no more power into 4 ohm than into 8. Looking at stereophile phase/impedance curve for the P3ESR, that is not the first amp I would choose for those speakers on paper. I... | |
| Poor Fritz Toss Ohm speakers into the pot of exceptional- value hand made "boutique" speakers. Especially for something completely different. | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way @deetch sounds similar to the sample I heard at the dealer.MEtas will not be first time I went with upgraded/refined versions of an older design. I started with original V1 Ohm Walsh in 1982, and upgraded to V3 ~ 2008, around the time I started he... | |
| Review: Fritz Heiler’s Carrera BE Bookshelf Speakers Yes the devil IS always in the details in this case not a single number across all frequencies but what is happening at specific frequencies is likely quite different. Low impedance and or phase issues at a particular frequency can result in a dro... |
