| Pure Class A SS vs Tube Amp Lordrootman,Your decision of the Aleph First Watt is a good one. Too bad about no xlr input. I had a Pass Labs Aleph 30 and it had balance inputs and was a very good sounding class A amp. But I have to say that the tube amps I’ve had since then so... | |
| Audio Furniture has its own sound! Too bad about the Salamander Cameleon. I have a Salamander Synergy rack w/ individual shelves for each component and the sound is superior to a Sanus rack w/ 3/4" veneered shelves. | |
| Linear Power supplies for DACs...? Has anyone experience w/ linear power supply with Schiit Modi3 DAC?According to one reviewer who gave a very positive review of the DAC said he tried other wall wart types and linear power supply with it and there was no difference in sound with t... | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? I can’t get past the look of Tektons. Looks way to busy to me drawing your attention to the speakers. I like a more subdued look. Not only does a $3k speaker have to sound good, it has to appeal to my visual senses too. | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? Thanks Meiaflask. Your story of your journey has good information for me. Looks like my initial choice of the ProAc Model 10 or upgrade to the Model 10 Anniversary is still a solid choice for me. Its 10 ohm rating is easy on tube amps and slightly... | |
| Acoustic Suspension sound in 2020? Agreed - Human and AudioNote for modern speakers. Human may have more the vintage sound.Also Seas A26 kit from Madisound. Modern version of classic Dynaco A25 of the '70s, though not a sealed cabinet.https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/2-way-spe... | |
| Best Buy Speakers at Best Buy under $1500pr From Best Buy, B&W is always a safe bet for blues and rock. As well as the more efficient Klipsch rp600 with lower powered amps. | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? Buchardt’s look quite nice. I was ready to add to my list until I watched Zero Fidelity’s review. His description has my puzzled about it's slightly forward sound, use w/ my tube amp, and for off axis listening too.Interesting you mention the JA’s... | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? Mesch, I'm using narrow floor speakers and my wife's not happy with them being so prominent.Gsm, AudioNote looks good but over my budget unless preowned.I'm concerned about resale and Watkins speakers may be difficult for me if they don't work so ... | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? Lots of options recommended here for monitor speakers.Of the suggestion here for $3k, these are the ones that initially intrigue me as a step up from the ProAc Table 10 I've been considering at $2k.They would look nice in our place too, w/o taking... | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? Thanks Grinnell, I forgot about the Ref 3a. Yes I would like wood veneer.I'll look into Fritz too. Lots of options too from others.BTW, I only listen to medium volumes and our lively room projects the sound well. | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? LSA10 is another option. Boy did I open a can of worms. How to decide on any of them w/o a place to audition. Wonder what is a safe choice w/good resale if its not right for me. | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? Thanks for your recommendations. The Nola Boxer3 looks enticing as well as the Omega. Other than musicality what other difference can I expect, like bass, highs/brightness, soundstage and projection of sound into to room? | |
| Why are Trolls not blocked Thanks Akg/ca for posting the definition. I’ve alway wondered what an internet troll exactly was. If it’s a rude and disagreeable person, it’s a reminder to me to be kind and understanding of the poster. On the other hand I’ve read many of inflamm... |
