| "One Box Solutions" - Suggestions ? I have both the NuPrime IDA-16 and the Devialet 200. Both are excellent but Devialet is my goto amp between the two. I actually added a 2nd Devialet to my mix so impressed I am | |
| Speakers for Devialet I am running Vivid Audio B1 (Upgraded recently to the Decades) and it seems to me like 'hand-in-glove'. Highly recommended. | |
| New Vivid Audio B1D : Superb Took the leap on the Decades. Love them, but will not get rif of my original B1's Move to another room. | |
| Will Changing my 100 Watt Tube Amp to a 200 Watt SS Amp Solve My Problem? I am a SS man. I have the Devialet 200 (and the nuPrime IDA-8 and IDA-16) and it is really the quietest amps I have owned. The devialet has a very nice phonostage. The Devialet is my exit amp. | |
| Pop/crack on power up, followed by audible tweeter hiss I have a NuPrime IDA-8 and yes it has a pop on startup and that I live with but does not hiss at all. It is dead quiet even at full volume with no source playing of course. It has a problem have it seen to. | |
| Subwoofer Highly recommended as long as you do the management properly. Look at the MiniDSP 2 x 4 | |
| Second audio system in your house? 4 different dedicated systems excluding Home Theater and smaller systems in bedrooms, outside, poolroom, kitchen. Part of life and agree the opportunity to experience different nuances without changing when you have a single system. | |
| What used speaker would you buy with $20,000-$35,000 and why? As high up in the Vivid Audio G series as I can get G3 or G2, G1 will be out of that range. | |
| Thoughts on system change VTL to NuPrime ? The IDA-16 and IDA-8 has different sound presentations. The IDA-16 controls the V1.5 with force and have total control over the complete spectrum. No hint of metal drivers and it seems to be a perfect fit for the Vivid Audio speakers. In a ’speake... | |
| Room size and electronics Vivid Audio Giya G1 NVP, from where in EU? If I may ask as I will be moving to PT in a two years and will be bringing my Vivid Audio (all of them with). I know Philip at Vivid and have discussed my options an who is the rep in my future country. | |
| Thoughts on system change VTL to NuPrime ? I bought the NuPrime IDA-8 and got rid of my Bryston 4B and my Emotiva XPA-2 Gen 2. I am blown away by the sound and image coming from this tiny unit. I then bought the IDA-16 which I drive my Vivid Audio V1.5 with. The IDA-8 drive a pair of So... | |
| New floor stand speakers I would suggest looking at the Vivid Audio range depending on your budget and room size. Amazed by the V1.5, ordered the B1 and will definitely get the G1 when the wallet permits. | |
| Speaker cable for amp.Coda and Vivid Audio I am very happy with the Nordost Heimdall speaker cable to my V1.5.Source is a Logitech Transporter into a NuPrime IDA-16. Some of the best sound I have owned, | |
| VIVID AUDIO SPEAKERS I have the V1.5 and agree better than my Wilson Audio Puppy 5.1, my Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors as well as (now sold) B&W 802N. As many say lacks bottom end on some material but added 2 x B&W PV1 subwoofers which complement them due to '... |
