Speakers for Yamaha AS2100 I’ve looked at those cantons a few times. Tried to find reviews but couldn’t find too many. Can you describe the sound characteristics of them if possible? I know everyone’s taste is different but what is it you like about them? They look very wel... | |
Speakers for Yamaha AS2100 Thanks everyone for the input! I was doing some research and found a pair of Dali rubicon 2 speakers for about $1500 used on us audio mart. Anyone have experience with the brand? From what I’ve read they seem to have a sound signature that I would... | |
Speakers for Yamaha AS2100 for me I don’t like anything too dry or clinical sounding. I do however value tonal accuracy. I want a piano to sound like a piano, a violin to sound like a violin, and voices to me are a big priority. I’ve heard so many speakers get a lot of thin... | |
Faint speaker hiss Sorry for a late response but I appreciate all the feedback! I thought I should mention too based off some responses that no, the hiss does not get worse with more volume. It is a minor constant sound that goes away once music is played. The speak... | |
Rega/Totem combo wow! Sorry, I didn't mean to make it sound like you said the naim was better. I listen at low volume levels mostly. Never really push past the 9 o'clock position. Unfortunately the dealer doesn't have the 5si on display to demo. As far as low volume co... | |
Rega/Totem combo wow! I have heard the same as well about their players. I plan on going back there in a week or so and make a decision. The elex r and and naim nait 5si are closely priced. I think the naim is maybe $300 more? If the naim is that much better I will pro... | |
Rega/Totem combo wow! I've heard mixed reviews on the naim with totem. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to listen to the naim. Have you heard them both with the totem? If so what we're your thoughts as far as sonic differences? I've heard people refer to rega as a p... | |
Rega/Totem combo wow! They had both vinyl and the matching rega cd player. Not much streaming but I based all my listening through the cd player and elex r since I don't have vinyl at home. Something just seemed to blend really well with all the sources and speakers. S... | |
Amp for Harbeth p3esr Sorry, my music taste is very broad and I listen to pretty much everything. I have no need for a turntable or anything like that. Most of my listening is thru my Marantz NA8005 which I either stream to or use as a standalone DAC from my MacBook P... | |
NAIM 5si I've heard alot of people refer to the PrAT features of naim gear. I guess I'm having a tough time understanding that sonic difference vs any other amp..ive heard it's very fast but in what way? Do all the instruments compete for an "in your face"... | |
NAIM 5si Thanks for the response! I will definitely check it out. | |
Amp recommendation for KEF LS50 this might sound like a dumb question, but I have never owned a tube amp..what do they do to the sound in comparison to solid state integrateds? (which is all I've ever owned)..Also, do tube amps only perform well with certain genres of music? I l... |
