| Dynaudio C4 vs B&W 802D IMO, 2 totally different speakers so the choise should be easier than if they were similar.Ive listened to the 802D numerous times at different dealers over the past few years.To me they are slow and bloated in the bass with a very unnatural tweet... | |
| Anyone using McIntosh with Vandersteen Quatros Ive never had your speakers but own a Mac amp.I borrowed some anti-cables once just out of curiousity ,IMO straight wire from Lowes worked out about the same.So I would suggest dumping those and going with a better quality cable for starters..As f... | |
| Cary SLP05 vs. Audio Research LS-26 IMO, The Cary SLP-05 is a great preamp. Thats coming from an ex-owner of 2 different Cary amps that I had issues with,both repaired but still a drag to ship and down time etc.Ive never heard the LS-26 but really like the Ref3.If you like the AR so... | |
| Best speakers for about $3500 IMO ,If your thinking monitors skip the Wilson cub IIs and buy the Dynaudio C1s..3500 should buy a pair or close to it | |
| Amplifier suggestion for Dynaudio Sapphire I auditioned the saphires at lenght a few times..sounded more like the Contour line(5.4) to me than the Confidence line so I passed on those and bought the C4s..Have you heard them? | |
| Best Match for Dynaudio Contour S3.4? IMO I would wait for the right deal on a X150.5..there is a reason why "It is fairly easy to pick up a used X250" | |
| Amplifier suggestion for Dynaudio Sapphire Im just curious ,what are your first impressions of the Saphires now that you own them | |
| Best Match for Dynaudio Contour S3.4? IMO,Too old and not on par with the new X series pass amps | |
| Amplifier suggestion for Dynaudio Sapphire IMO, for that cash there are better options.I would also consider upgrading cables. | |
| Amplifier suggestion for Dynaudio Sapphire Pass labs and BAT would be my choice | |
| Best Match for Dynaudio Contour S3.4? You shouldnt have to pay more than $2500 for a dead mint one with low hours..I wouldnt spend more than say 2200 and Ive seen them as low as 1800.I would buy from private owner and not a store.Make sure you get the serial number and call Pass in CA... | |
| Best Match for Dynaudio Contour S3.4? Fredorama For heaven sakes!..Why dont you audition a Pass labs X150.5 and be done with it.Its in your budget, mates extremely well with those speakers,great resale,great service,detail,musical,doesnt run hot,smaller size..comeon get in the game.IM... | |
| BAT VK 300 SE Vs. CJ CA200 For Dyn Contour S3.4 Ive heard BAT Tube gear into the Saphires and the C1s,wasnt really that impressed.I suggest Pass Labs | |
| Wilson Sophia 3 Bigpond That makes no sense.If owners complain about finish cracks on this site time and time again I dont need to see it,I beleive them.Really makes no diff as Im not interested in buying speakers at this time and I would think long and hard befo... | |
| Wilson Sophia 3 If you follow threads on this site, Wilson has finish issues.period!,,I really like the new Sasha speaker so im not bashing the line.I almost pulled the trigger on a pair of sophia 2s but the saleman let it slip that the new 3 would be shipped in ... |
