| KT120 Tube compatibility w/ Jadis Defy 7 Amp MK 1 Not owning a Defy 7 in some time due to upkeep and retubing cost,two things I can say without hesitation.Dont substitute those tubes and forget about any customer sevice!!! | |
| dynuaudio c-1s in a small 10x12 room?/amppower? IMO,your room size is tough for the C1s to shine(small and almost square)Been there done that in a similar room.Room treatment will be a must.If you dont already own Parasound walk away from the table..I would suggest Pass labs X150.5,with the ext... | |
| Pass Labs x150.5 question Absolutely..Ive run that amp through C1s and C4s.Yes I agree that the 250.5 would be even better as Ive done that as well but the 150.5 can hold its own with those speakers(300 watts into that 4 ohm load I believe)..Pass labs and Dynaudio are a su... | |
| Dynaudio Confidence or Sonus Faber monitors I acutaly think the C2 is a great spot in the confidence line. C1 is great monitor but short on bass and C4 only is really good for very large rooms. the C2 gives me, at leat, monitor like accuracy with very nice bass. Adding the pair of JL's made... | |
| Dynaudio Confidence or Sonus Faber monitors IMO, both are a good choice for monitors C1s/Mementos..The C2s are the laim duck in the Dyn lineup..large cabinets lacking in many areas,C1s and a real nice sub will out perform the C2s so I would never suggest them | |
| Has anyone switched from Dynaudio to Harbeth IMO ,I would move up the Dynaudio line.The 3.4s are not that great to begin with,lacking alot so maybe check out the C1s.I think you will love them if you like the 3.4.The comparison Dyn/Harbeth is really not a fair fight.Again this is just my opi... | |
| Wilson Watt Puppy, which version? Wilson Watt Puppy, which version? IMO ,none.The Sophia 2 and 3 is where I would go if buying Wilson..again thats a big IF! | |
| Best amps to pair with dynaudio C2 To be honest I dont like your short list at all.Why limit yourself to monos??As a Confidence owner I would suggest a Pass X250.5 or Mac 402. | |
| Can the Harbeth 40.1's boggie ????? Ive never understood the Harbeth following but thats just me.I ran old Tannoys and late 50s JBL 3 ways with tube gear for a long time.Both seem to be real nice for 70s/80s rock even if you dont run them full bore.Not the greatest if detail detail ... | |
| to SACD or not I recently did what your doing and bought an Esoteric X03SE.Love it.I could have bought an Ayre at dealer cost and passed after hearing several including the Marantz line...and that Sony all are hyping,forgetaboutit,not even in the same conversati... | |
| Can the Harbeth 40.1's boggie ????? IMO, you would be better of with vintage speakers given the list of artist you listen to..Tannoys/JBLs/Altecs rather than Harbeths..Cheaper as well..Avalons over Harbeths /no brainer again my opinion | |
| Avalon Acoustics vs Wilson Audio Kazman..I wasnt trying to get your panties all in a bunch by "attacking"your fast 802s so freakin chill.They are slow,most would agree.You dont think so listen to more speakers as another suggested and if you are still in that mind set buy them..N... | |
| Avalon Acoustics vs Wilson Audio 802d is a really fast speaker. Ive heard tons of remarks about the 802D but never ever that it was fast.If anything one of the major slaps about that speaker is its way too slow and bloated in the bass,extremely "lush" with that famous Brit sound... | |
| Avalon Acoustics vs Wilson Audio IMO, I have to agree with the above poster.Ive listened to Wilson and Avalon alot.I could easily live with the Sasha or Sophia3(both excellent speakers)but if I was dropping cash, Avalon would go home with me. | |
| JL Audio F113 or F112 For Dynaudio Confidence 5 IMO, I have to diagree with the above posters.Its pretty common knowledge (assuming you just read threads on this site and havent had both at home like myself) that JL subs are better for HT and Rel for 2 channel.Im not really sure why you would n... |
