| any experience with Polymer Audio Research speaker How many advertising dollars does Polymer spend with The Absolute Sound?Just saying....Plus, a few of these responders gushing over the speakers seem more than a little suspicious to me. Check their join date (when this thread started), their othe... | |
| any experience with Polymer Audio Research speaker Based on the response above, I would venture to guess that Dweinstein is Daniel Khesin, the owner of Polymer. Dweinstein/Daniel, whatever your name is, you need to realize that not everyone will love the Polymer speakers. Some may, and that's grea... | |
| any experience with Polymer Audio Research speaker A friend of mine owns a pair of the MKS-X's. I've heard them 6 or 7 times. For their $60,000 retail price, I can think of a million speakers I would rather own. They aren't my cup of tea at all. That being said, the tweeter is very smooth, but the... | |
| Speaker decision $3000-3500...help I really like what Clayton is doing over at Spatial Audio. Check them out. His Lumina series looks excellent. I've heard his earlier works at Emerald Physics and these are supposed to be better. | |
| C2300 preamp First, keep the 2300.Second, replace the stock 12AX7 tubes with Tesla E83CC's or Psvane T2. These tubes (especially the Tesla) take the 2300 to new heights.Enjoy! | |
| Help me find WARM speakers a la Sonus Faber Marten Django XL (used)Sonus Faber Eclipse/Eclipse SE (used)Good luck in your search. | |
| Poor man's Rockport Atrias? I think you should audition more speakers just to be sure. This is a significant investment. Magico, Wilson, Vivid, Sonus Faber and many others - just to be sure.IMHO - the Magico S5 is a better speaker and the new Magico S3 might be a better foot... | |
| PASS - comparison X 350 to XA 60.5 Wait for the new Pass .8's. | |
| To Tube or not to Tube...... IMHO - a modestly priced tube amp can often give many of the top SS Class AB amps a run for their money. Tubes offer a tonality quality and roundness and naturalness that a lot of SS amps cannot. On the other hand, SS offers speed, dynamics, bass ... | |
| Speakers for VAC sigma 160i -- need inputs Magico S1 | |
| Accuphase E-560 versus VAC Sigma 160i Guys - great thread. I'm wondering if the 160i could drive my Magico S5's in a big room (45 x 15 with 12 foot ceilings). I love VAC gear. My friend brought his VAC 100/100 over (he paid $1500 for it) and I was beyond impressed. I'm sorry to say, i... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? I have one. It's great. For the money, it's crazy good. | |
| Best Speakers You Have Ever Heard In Your Home Raidho D3. No contest. And I've owned Sonus Faber Stradivari, Aida's, Revel, Magnepan, and many many many others. | |
| Best Integrated, period. VAC 160iDevialet 170 | |
| Magico S5 vs Tannoy Westminster Royal SE I find the tweeter on the Tannoy's not to my liking. Too forward. To me, the S5 is a better speaker and very SOTA. The tweeter on the S5 - despite being beryllium - is as smooth as silk. Very well integrated and the S5's bass is outstanding. Tight... |
