| MHDT Labs DAC: Havana or Paradisea+ ? I too have a LM Ericcson gold pins for my Havana and really love it. It was not until I found the United Eletron 5760 and fall in love to the warm and soothing sound of this little gem. I found that this tube is often forgotten since people are mo... | |
| Bel Canto Ref1000 MkII or Accuphase A-20 Wow thanks for the informative reply. What I am really curious about is should I upgrade to mark 2 or try something like a basic accuphase amp like the a20. I really like the mark 1 but I don't know if the mark 2 will make a huge difference in my ... | |
| Bel Canto Ref1000 MkII or Accuphase A-20 Thanks for the reply. It looks like Threshold s500 is Class A/AB and so I guess it leans more towards the Accuphase side as far as topology is concerned.I wonder how is the MkII in comparison to Class A amps... | |
| Bel Canto Ref1000 MkII or Accuphase A-20 Right, the speakers are 8ohms Totem Forests and the living room is around 10x10 meters. I recently found that running amp-direct from Havana to Bel Canto sounds really amazing where volume control can be done on the Squeezebox (though it need to b... | |
| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? I have read about the HiVi driver before. In Fact I even saw a screen shot of a member pulled out the Totem driver with Hi Vi logo on it. (I forgot the model though...)The HiVi Swan D2 looks like Totem clone!http://www.swanspeaker.com/product/htm/... | |

| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? I just want to keep the options open so let me ask you experts out there who is familiar with the Icepower class d amps. Will the class d work well with the 4ohm speakers like the Mani-2 vs. the 8 ohm speakers like the Forest?As far as I know the ... | |
| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? Zieman, thanks for the pricing info.What are the Dynaudio driver models? I read that some of the drivers Totem made are by Hi-xx audio (forgot the name) in China? and some of them are the same as Dynaudio? Thanks. | |
| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? Wow Rumadian, I'm very impressed with your experience on the Totem speaker line ups. My experience with the Staff is actually very similar to yours. I actually like the Staff a lot in I haven't heard the Forest.Thank you very much for your advice.... | |
| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? Zieman, I thought the MSRP for Mani-2 is $3995/pair?Perhaps you mean with the R-2 stands $720/pair plus Tax and shipping? Thanks. | |
| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? Mimberman, I see that you have a Mhdt Havana. That's also what I use currently. I once had an opportunity to have the Havana DAC hooked up to a Forest with an Integrated Accuphase. I really enjoyed it.I wonder what Tube do you use? United Electron... | |
| MHDT Labs DAC: Havana or Paradisea+ ? I am currently an owner of the Paradisea (non-USB version) and I absolutely love it. It's musical performance is just spectacular with my Accuphase.From people who have upgraded to the Havana, so far I have heard nothing but positive feedback. Her... |
