Putting together a system...looking for some suggestions I just attended RMAF in Denver and heard the new integrated amp from Elac and their floor standers. The amp and speakers only cost $2,250. This leaves plenty of cash for a respectable CD player/turntable or whatever you want for sources. The integ... | |
Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used I checked out the classic audios, very nice but I didn't have the emotional connection as with the Voxativ. I pulled the trigger and bought the Voxativ 9.87 system along with the Voxativ 211 integrated amp. Can't wait to hear it in my room. The ow... | |
Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used I neglected to mention the others so here are my impressions:-Focal Sopra 2 - I did an extensive session when they first came out and didn't care for them. Too bright and unnatural for my tastes-Harbeth - I did listen to these yesterday and found... | |
Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used I spent the day at RMAF listening to a number of speakers suggested where I could find them. Not all are listed in the guide so it is a bit of hit or miss.I found the Voxativ room and was blown away. I went back three separate times. The music ... | |
RMAF Etiquette I have used RMAF to narrow the search, however, many of the products I like are not sold in Colorado so I cannot go listen to them at a local showroom. My only opportunity is at the show. Since this industry is apparently struggling I would thin... | |
RMAF Etiquette Scheduling a session late is a good idea. Maybe people don't attend RMAF to buy products as much as they are there to socialize. I just found it very odd that the majority of people would speak loudly during auditions of equipment. I found it i... | |

I will seek out listening sessions in October at RMAF and make a decision.inna, I am sure you didn't intend to make me out to be an A$$ by buying my amp and preamp in advance of my speakers.

Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used inna, as I stated in my original post I heard Raidho with Constellation at RMAF and that was what I was planning to buy and still may do so unless I hear something else that wows me more in October at RMAF. I delayed the speaker purchase because ... | |
Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used I am definitely planning on room treatments due to the low ceilings. I am open to monitors or full range. I cannot use a sub with my Constellation setup. I considered a REL but after looking through my manuals and calling REL they don’t recommend ... | |
Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used I contacted Rives many months ago. Unfortunately they are out of business. | |
Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used Infection, I understand how you may have taken my comment about how much I spent on the renovation. It was intended as a commentary on how ridiculous costs have risen for construction, nothing more. I will edit my original and remove the reference... | |
Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used I listened to the Raidho's three different days with different music playing and in different locations in the room. Denver sadly doesn't have too many choices for listening to the brands I am considering. I agree the brands I mentioned above ar... | |
Berkeley Dac 2 or PS audio DSD or Schiit Yggs? PS Audio is the schiit IMO. | |
Am I the only one to opt-out on the Sopra 2's? I auditioned the Sopras at Apex in Denver. I was very disappointed in their sound. I found them very bright and not enjoyable with a broad range of music. Initially they were played with SS Aestethix gear. I complained about the brightness and ... | |
Researching Preamps I picked up a Parasound JC3+ and am really happy with the sound. I am using Constellation amp and line-stage. I wanted a good quality phono preamp and was looking at Constellation. While researching the history of the design I discovered that ... |
