| Exchange Krell KAV-250a for a Pass Labs X-350? Mg123, I do not think that your statement about the NAD Silverline preamp not being in the same level as the Krell, Pass, or Dynaudio is in fact. The S-500 is a different animal than the regular NAD equipment. The Silverline is NAD's bid at the hi... | |
| Best speakers for 2000-USED Say811, that is not true. Although we speak of compromise the distance is not that great. Music played on Cerwin Vega's may have visceral impact but the quality will make your ears bleed. There are some speakers that are made for what you want. Le... | |
| Exchange Krell KAV-250a for a Pass Labs X-350? Yes, that is the pendulum Gregm. I do not know yet. But the general consensus is that the Krell may be a bit sterile or have a sound. I am just looking for my next upgrade path if I need one. I have tried a number of preamps, tubes and SS, and I h... | |
| Best speakers for 2000-USED I am going to suggest a monitor, the Dynaudio 1.3 MkII. They have all of the qualities that you are requiring plus a very smooth high frequency response and excellent driver integration. If you really like to ROCK a decent sub may also be required... | |
| what speakers do the best "disappearing act"?? I have the Dynaudio 1.3Se's and I am constanly amazed at how the speakers seem to just not be the source of the music. The sound is so smooth and integrated to the music that I need to close my eyes so that I don't stare at the speakers and try to... | |
| Most musical high-efficient 3-way bi-ampable spkr? Mighty nice! You are going to have a great weekend. Maybe even take Monday off. Dale | |
| How long did you wait for your next upgrade? I have selected my system with this mind, I am going to get the best that I can without spending ridiculous. I am very satisfied at this point although I am certain that everything could certainly be improved. I have called a moratorium on purchas... | |
| Most musical high-efficient 3-way bi-ampable spkr? I really, really like the SR-11. Although it's sensitivity is not quite as high as the rest of the line you have more than enough power for these. But I will bet you that the Sonatina will be hard to beat. I find that I prefer low sensitivity spea... | |
| Ray Lynch and similar? I don't know that there is another Ray Lynch. Someone else may know better. But he has a number of albums out. I think that his best was his first commercial release "Deep Breakfast". Dale | |
| Most musical high-efficient 3-way bi-ampable spkr? Silverline! Dale | |
| Superior sound from newer CD players? I have owned the NAD S-500 for the past 2 years and I will tell you now that it is not the same animal as the past NAD products. Just open it up and you will see a very highend product.( not all the esoteric namey parts but more than suffucient fo... | |
| Are Audiophiles Obsessive Nuts? What does equipment have to do with music? Yea, it's a bit out of context for this forum. We are talking about cable here. It was not an excuse for neo-maxi-wiggedout cable design. My point was, you can't see the forest for the trees. It's all abo... | |
| Who R U? I find great peaceful refuge in Jesus. The GOD sent him to fill that big hole in you heart. The same GOD that gave you the ability to enjoy music. God gave man the great gift of free will so crazy things happen in life. But GOD wants to know you p... | |
| White cloudy film on inside groove of an LP Thank you all for the replies to this issue. Mr. Porter, if you are willing to send me a sample of this fluid, I would like to try it first before I try the more radical suggestions.I am a little concerned that both of these LP's are from Simply V... | |
| Go balanced or unblanced that is the question Using a balanced connector from my preamp to my amp gave a welcome 6 db and gave a sharp punchiness to the amp, very tight. It was definitely happier. Then the same cable but with s/e sounds betters from the CD to the pre. It was much smoother and... |
