| Levinson 432/436 turn on 'pop' IMO, its MLs.My bro was a dealer for them and dropped the line due to constant returns,repairs and unhappy customers.Its somewhat common knowledge or should be ML has had build issues over the years.Just my 2 cents | |
| JM Labs original utopia speakers Ive owned both and between the two I would buy the B series...just depends on what you have to pay really | |
| Preference - Sonus Faber, Dynaudio or Focal A few years ago I actually addition all 3.IMO the the SF were not true to the recording.Some call it warm or darkish.The Focal 1038B was better(I did own utopias the year before) but my knock on that speaker was the tweeter was bright and un-natur... | |
| DAC for Esoteric XO3-SE CDP IMO ,being a X03SE owner I totally agree w/Stehno..could not have stated it any better. | |
| Adding a sub - what will I loose? 10 Grand for a sub,lol......more power 2 ya | |
| Magico V3 IMO, having heard both the V2/V3 and the Q3/Q5 I would wait until funds allow for the purchase of the Qs.If not I would move to the Avalons.The V series Magico prices seem to be falling weekly,my guess is potential buyers hear the Qs | |
| Magico V2 / Dynaudio C4 IMO I disagree..The C4s are not limited to large rooms ,mine worked great in medium room so thats nonsense.The C2s are not even close to C4s so you cant compare them at all..and again IMO if your looking at Magico forget the V versions and buy the... | |
| Solid state warm up? Call Glenn Poors in Champaingn IL..he is a Dyn dealer and part owner of BAT..he can get to the truth for you. | |
| world's best preamp closest to real sound stage Seems an odd question if your concerns are to buy the "the best pre made" running Von schweikert vr-4 jr speakers..IMO get better speakers, then build around them.The BEST pre wont matter until ya do | |
| Best Solid State Amp w/ Avalon Eidolon Diamonds IMO ,I completely agree with Rtn1(Avalon and Pass).....and on a side note he has an amazing system,congrats! | |
| REL G1 vs JL Fathom F113 subwoofer IMO,I think the Rel is an excellent choice.For someone to say "JL113 cleaner faster better" is just foolish at best. | |
| Does Mcintosh MC75 drive B&W 802D well? Ive owned several pairs of MC 75s over the years and never thought they did anything very well(no detail at all),and of course my dislike of the 802D is documented on this forum.If the Mac are a must keep I would venture into vintage Tannoys or si... | |
| Seeking advice on how to improve my system IMO, if we are just looking at the components and not at setup or treatment I would dump that Sony 5400 followed by the Theils | |
| Amp for Focal Scala Utopia C2300mc275 When I had Focal utopias I ran Pass Labs,sounded amazing!You may have to rethink your pre amp as well. | |
| Amp for Focal Scala Utopia Lapierre ..Nice system I like your setup,try borrowing a SS amp like Pass labs,Boulder etc etc on those ribbons and then tell us what your thoughts are on the 275..just a suggestion. |
