Upgrade rainmakers to hawks,clues,tekton or fritz?
Jkontuly,Question for you - have you listened to the Rainmakers with a good quality amp rather than the receiver you have? I am assuming that the Hawks and the other speakers you have listened to, must have been paired with a good quality integrat... 
Recommendations/thoughts on power for Quad 12L2s
I upgraded from a NAD integrated in steps. The Quads love power. I suggest that you find a used Parasound A21 used on audiogon.com and use the pre-out from the integrated to connect the A21. What I mean is - use the NAD as preamplifier and A21 as ... 
Are Quad 22L2 's considered highly colored?
One thing I did notice that Quad has come out with the 23L and 25L. They look awesome. The Quad 23L may suit your needs. Here are some links:http://www.quad-hifi.co.uk/Product.aspx?lang=En&Tab=33http://www.everestaudio.com/products/Quad-25L-Cl... 
Room treatments - GIK Vs Acoustimac
I do not have windows on the front wall. But they are on the rear wall, about 3 feet from where I sit. I have taken care of them with the Monster traps. There is that french door, but I will put some felt on them sometimes later. I will update my ... 
3 footers...which one?
Ebm,Thank You for the suggestions. They are expensive.I have Herbie Audio Lab's Extra Thick Hush Puckies on order now. They have the vibration blocking dBNeutralizer bonded to the base. I read a thread that even Jim Smith (from Get Better Sound) r... 
Room treatments - GIK Vs Acoustimac
Kevinzoe,Thanks much for the detailed explanation. Very helpful indeed.Yes, I am for sure getting the panels for the first absorption points. They would be the 244 from GIK.I am undecided on the front wall panels. I can confidently say that there ... 
3 footers...which one?
Tpreaves,I am in touch with them. Their products indeed have good reviews. I am wondering if I should get the regular Hush Puckies and place them on the Waipuna Myrtlefeet (regular size), with the speakers sitting on the Hush Puckies. 
Are Quad 22L2 's considered highly colored?
Can't speak of 22L. I have the 21L. If they have color...then I say, I love them that way. My experience with Quad dynamic speakers has been absolutely positive. For me they image well and are non-fatiguing. They reveal what you feed them with. An... 
Room treatments - GIK Vs Acoustimac
As an update, I received 2 tri-traps and 2 monster panels from GIK. They cleared up the sound stage while tightening the bass response. I do not have any panels on the first reflection points yet and that may be the reason why the imaging is not a... 
Hegel Amplifiers
Sabai,Will wait to read your review. Not that I am looking to change, but just curious. I was at one point interested in H20. But I could not audition it before buying. 
Hegel Amplifiers
Talk2me,You are the only person on the forum, that I know of, who uses Hegel's higher end amps. You should check out the H30 with yourself...he he he. Just kidding. Here is a forum where you might get your answer:http://avforum.nohttp://translate.... 
Clear Day Cables Speaker Cables
Has anyone compared Clear Day to Signal Cable's Silver Resolution? I have read opinions on how the Clear Day bested the lower end of Signal Cable's cables. But how about Silver Resolution? 
Room treatment made me cry.......a little........
Amen to that. I did that last week and every word you say is correct...even more.I have "started off" with 2 tri-traps and 2 monster-traps. I have a small room and the bass actually has definition. I used to hear this all over the forum, but was n...
