| What's a good beginner turntable at $2500+- range? Thanks guys. I think I'm trying to shoot a bit higher here than the modified Technics suggestion while I'm sure it's an excellent product. I just want a table that can keep up with the rest of my system. Keep 'em coming. Specifically can anyone co... | |
| What's a good beginner turntable at $2500+- range? Thanks for the good tips. I'm thinking $2500 before cartridge and accessories so I should have clarified. Does anyone have experience with Wilson Benesch tables? | |
| How particluar are Dynaudio C-4's to room placement? The rest of my current set up is Ayre V-1xe amp Ayre K-1xe Pre and Wadia 861se CD. Wiring is mostly Cardas Golden Reference but the speaker wiring is still active Synergistic Research X-2left over from my old set up. | |
| How particluar are Dynaudio C-4's to room placement? pdreher-I think the room is about 18x25. It's pretty open to the rear of the listening position (opens to LR and kitchen). The side walls are glass on one side (they have cloth chairs and curtains to help, and Brick and Sandstone on the other. No ... | |
| How particluar are Dynaudio C-4's to room placement? Pdreher-I have a large open room just not too much leeway in the rear. I can swing as much as 30-35 inches from the rear of the speaker but no more. Plenty of room (at least 6 feet) on the sides. Otherwise they're in the middle of the living room ... | |
| Former Revel Salon Owners: What Did You Switch To? What kind of price range are the evolution acoustics at? | |
| Best Speakers to match Ayre V-1xe and K-1xe Thanks Kthomas! Happy listening. | |
| Former Revel Salon Owners: What Did You Switch To? ttowntony- The Avalon Isis are $65k new! I don't think that's in the ball park for Jeff, and certainly out of the league for this comparison. Maybe you meant a lesser Avalon model? However I agree they are excellent (they had better be at $65k!!).... | |
| Best Speakers to match Ayre V-1xe and K-1xe Yes. I'm about to move in to Vinyl as we speak. If you know is a VPI Scoutmaster a good table to try? I thought the Sapphires are more than the C-4's? Keeping the wife happy is not draining the bank account to feed my heroin/stereo equipment addic... | |
| Best amp for N803 +htm1? ? Try a used Levinson No. 334. | |
| Best Speakers to match Ayre V-1xe and K-1xe Kthomas- Thanks for your response. My listening room is very large and I listen to Rock and Jazz at fairly high levels. My favorite speaker I've heard is the Avalon Isis. They are really amazing. However at $62k they had better be. The next best i... | |
| Best Speakers to match Ayre V-1xe and K-1xe Thanks Matt. That's actually very helpful. I really like the C-2's which I have heard, but the C-4's are not in stock locally. I saw a review where the reviewer had a V-1x and he said it did not have enough power to drive the C-4's. From your comm... | |
| Best amp for N803 +htm1? ? I have Nautilus 802's and I think they go really well with Mark Levinson. I have been using a no. 335 with mine for about 6 years. I'' be selling my no. 335 before too long as I'm going to upgrade my entire system. | |
| Ayre amps - cool running? I have a V-1xe and it is cool in standby and runs warm but not hot while in use. I used to have Levinson which ran very warm at idle, and hot during use. | |
| What do you think of Vandersteen 5a's? Thanks for all the comments. Ive been running B&W Nautilus 802's for the last 5 years. I like them, but I find some of the top end resolution to be lacking, and the soundstage is not particularly impressive. I used to run Levinson gear, but re... |
