| Bagpipes anyone? Cruz: I know what you mean. I guess I 'm wonderinhg if there's an equivalent of a YoYo Ma in the world of bagpipes. | |
| best small room 2 channel set up for under $2ooo I just put together a small system for my (super senior) father's room for about $1300: Music Hall Trio($700 used), 60WPC all in-in-one unit; Triangle Stellas, front ported, 91db sensitive ($329 new, a close out); Kef PSW 10002 sub ($150 new, a cl... | |
| Stewart Copeland, Incredible Check out Stewart's work with the group Animal Logic...both CDs. Stanley Clarke plays bass. | |
| VSA 4- jrs When I had 4-jrs I used the supplied spikes on marble tiles I purchased from Home Depot. I looked at granite but had a hard time pulling the trigger due to the price. I now have Seniors and use outriggers similar to Arkio. Won't be changing any ti... | |
| Usher Be - 718's for Home Theater and 2 Channel I am not familiar with your amplification, but I own both the Studio 100V3s (for about 4 years...my first serious speakers) and the Usher BE 718s (1 month). My listening is strictly 2 channel. I did find placement w/ the Paradigms was much trickie... | |
| Add a subwoofer to Von Schweikert 4Srs? Mancuso: I know what you mean about break-in time with Von Schweikerts...can't be stressed enough. Sounds like your floor construction is similar to mine. I'm going to guess your Sound Anchor bases (versus my outriggers NOT coupled to the floor) a... | |
| Paradigm Studio 100 v.3 + Marantz sr5001 I had a pair of 100 V3's in my system for a couple of years. Sounded better with 500WPC Bryston than 200WPC Conrad Johnson (FET) or 100WPC Cary tube power. I can't tell you how many times I heard people say something to the effect "...those multi-... | |
| Belles 28A pre-amp From my limited experience with pre amps, for the money (and it has balanced connections) I think it is a great value in the SS category. I put it in my system between a Cambridge Audio 840C, Spectron Musician 3SE MKII amp and Von Schweikert 4Sr s... | |
| Monitors for a Music Hall Trio? We're talking a generic...not home theatre specs...small reasonably priced sub. Maybe a small KEF? | |
| Monitors for a Music Hall Trio? Search is over. I went with the Triangle Stellas. At 90db I thought I better grab them. Thanks for your input! Off to find a sub... Best, Steve | |
| Monitors for a Music Hall Trio? Celtic66: I am familiar with Dynaudio speakers and their sonics are amongst the best of the bunch out there. My concern is having enough power to drive them. With the MH Trio's power at 50WPC and the Dynaudio 42 sensitivity at 86db...would they ha... | |
| Monitors for a Music Hall Trio? Grinnell and Mechans: Thanks, off to a good start. This system is for my 80+ (Super Senior) father. Trying to keep it simple but a few notches above the RCA fold-down turntable of his I trashed in the 60s. I see a pair Triangle Stella ES, 90db eff... | |
| Amp for VR4SR Takeone: I have had both Nuforce 9SE and Channels Islands (D-200) in my system in the last couple of years. Without going into an extended assessment, my experience would be: Nuforce-Excellent and deep bass control, RFI can be problematic, especia... | |
| Using a REL Storm with a Spectrum Amp? Bdgregory: Thanks for the perspective with your experience. Regarding the wiring scheme..you are correct...I misread the manual. Third (yellow) wire to the +. There's a reason I sought a reality check before hooking up components. I guess the carp... | |
| Using a REL Storm with a Spectrum Amp? Rwwear: I share your not-quite-understanding the arrangement of connecting the extra wire to the negative terminal. The Storm III manual in conjuction with use of the Neutrik cable has that instruction (only 3 wires on the amp end)...and intuitive... |
