| Magico compared to Tannoy Yes, I also have the Sterling GRs. I agree that they are wonderful with Jazz and vocal driven music. Maybe not the best for hard rock. Why we can have two speakers for different sessions. My main system gets most use for last evening sessions, Jaz... | |
| Looking for my Final Pair!! It is raining outside, have time on my hands, followed this thread, bypassing one poster.Dave, Glad to hear you are happy with your speakers and the improvements you have made (tweeters). Enjoy! | |
| Well, user error isn't over just yet *sigh* So you fixed the hum problem and my no longer be looking for another sub? | |
| Audiogon Friday Feel Good Story of the Week I had the B&K ST-140. Purchased in 1985. Sold it on AG in 2011 for 1/2 what I paid for it. Great amplifier! | |
| System Dissatisfaction - My Own Fault I am surprised that I missed your thread back in 2018. I owned the Pathos Classic One MKII at that time. Sold it about a year ago. Since then I purchased a pair of Tannoy Sterlings. That Pathos would have served me well with those speakers. | |

| A decent preamp to complete my setup? Wonder what becom15 chose to do? | |
| Magico compared to Tannoy @cantorgale I heard the Autograph Mini driven by a Luxman 150 tube integrated amplifier. Yes wonderful sound and looks. I own the Tannoy Sterlings. @jond I agree that excessive detail can get exhausting with many (most?) recordings. | |
| Spendor A1 vs Tannoy Autograph Mini's I heard the Autograph Mini driven by a 10 wpc Luxman tube integrated. Great sound and looks. | |
| Law of Diminishing Returns; where does it kick in? I believe it starts with 'I have an audio system that I enjoy but...'. | |
| Pure analog system with high power Is your stated budget just for the amplification? | |
| Pathos Classic One MkIII vs. Krell S-300i I once owned the Pathos Classic One MK II. Lovely amplifier when paired to right speakers. Not the most powerful 70WPC amp on the planet. The instruction manual shows how to use a pair in mono mode. | |
| Looking to Try a Passive Preamp I have always known the output impedance of the Jolida Fusion to be 600ohms. One reason I paired it with the BEL. | |
| Adjusting the sonic fingerprint of a system. I have no problem believing that alteration of the distribution of the gain in a system would modify the sonic signature of that system. | |
| Upgrading entry level system Well, within budget and, sans streaming, having the required features, you might look into the Yamaha A-Sxxx line of integrated amplifiers. They all have internal DACs, phonostage, and subwoofer output.The audioengine device for streaming may work... |
