Philharmonic Audio BMR Towers
Its been almost a year since I purchased the Towers. They are not as impressive as the monitors. You kinda expect to get deep bass out of a speaker this size. You do not expect to get the bass you get our of the monitors. If you close your eyes wh... 
Gershman Grande Avant Garde
I have the Luxman 507 ux and am also looking at the Gershman GAG speakers. I think if it is not enough power I can use the Luxman for the top and power the bass with one of the Crown amps which is where they do best.   
Philharmonic Audio BMR Towers
I have not heard the Philharmonic BMR Towers. However I have owned the BMR Monitors for a couple months now. Based on how much I like and enjoy these Monitors I have also ordered a pair of the Towers. The monitors are among the best speakers I hav... 
KLH Model 5 question
I have the new KLH model 5's and am using a Luxman L-509au with them. It is 110 watts per channel and it is more than enough. My room is only 10' 8" X 16' 6". I have had these speakers for a while and thought they were pretty good. But once I pos... 
Does anyone own the new KLH model 5 speakers?
I have owned Vandersteens in the past. I know you can always do better but these KLH model 5's are pretty good. My VMPS RM30 had the most natural over all sound of any speakers I have ever owned. Once the midrange drivers started going bad though,... 
Does anyone own the new KLH model 5 speakers?
Okay I have had the KLH for a while now and jonuiuc1 is correct. The KLH do voices and midrange very clearly. They are not the most accurate speakers I have ever heard in this area but they are very good. ( I think my Rogers LS3/5A and VMPS RM30's... 
What capacitor would you use to upgrade Wharfedale Linton 85th Anniversary?
I just purchased a set of these speakers as well. I am also thinking of upgrading the 6.8 uf cap on the tweeter. The Guy in Germany (Mike) from HEADquarter audio used a Jantzen Standard Z and you can hear the difference between the modified and un... 
Mcintosh MA6600 vs Luxman 507u
I also went through a similar process with the Luxman L-507ux  and the McIntosh MAC 6600 receiver. (They no longer sell the integrated amp in the US market.)  I kinda wanted the Mac but I have a nice turntable set up and I was disappointed with th... 
Luxman Taking a Different Direction
I recently purchased a Luxman L-507ux and don't know how I could be more pleased. I did not want the class A amps because I was afraid of the heat as I use my amp with my tv and entertainment system as well as with my turntable and CD player. So i... 
Integrated Amplifier with the Good Bass and Extended Highs
Just wondering how long you listened to the 505 ux?  I have read a rave review of it in one of the audio rags. I recently purchased a l-507 ux and thought it was terrible when I first hooked it up. I could not believe how bad this thing sounded. (...
