| Ideas for Pre/Power $9000? @tunefuldude +1, my upstairs system would be considered overkill by most normies opinions. Probably 13k if bought new at the time it was new which it is VERY far from. Anyway it’s very descent stuff and I paid probably 15% of that. At 100db it’s ... | |
| Ideas for Pre/Power $9000? I’m sure the Elacs are descent speakers and a better amp should make them sound their best. Just be careful what you choose so that it doesn’t limit your speaker choice down the road. Not knowing what speakers you would consider I would stick with... | |
| Ideas for Pre/Power $9000? I'm a metal guy as well. I currently have a Lyngdorf TDIA 3400 and had the smaller 2170 a few years ago. Amazing sound quality IMO and the Room correction is a must have for me. Music especially metal sounds much better after room correction. Ther... | |
| Ideas for Pre/Power $9000? Also would you consider used? | |
| Ideas for Pre/Power $9000? Do you have speakers in mind you want to upgrade to? For example a Klipsch and a Dynaudio likely would want very different amplification to sound their best. If going to spend up to 9k I would think you would want something that would work well wi... | |
| Ideas for Pre/Power $9000? Is this a real post? If so my apologies. 9k for power to a $500 Elac monitor does not make much sense. Also Elac monitor and a metal head does not make a lot of sense either. | |
| What is meant exactly by the description 'more musical'? When I think musical I think bouncy and good mid bass. Not necessarily accurate. | |
| Subwoofer Basics Help Yes the record out is full volume. As others mentioned your best bet is sub with high level connections like the REL. You could use the volume control route out of the record out but you would be doing a lot of fiddling with it every time you ... | |
| Big speakers, are they really the best way to get great sound? Small room= monitors or small floor standers and subs properly eq-ed. larger room= bigger floor standers and subs properly eq-ed. I do however prefer a 3 way design even if in the monitor class. | |
| Which Would You Choose? Neither. I would take the JC 5 over either one. Not sure why you think either of these would be an improvement. | |
| Best pairing subwoofer with B & W 805D4 10 grand will buy some kickass subs! couple JL Fathoms would be nice. Very musical and easy to blend with Monitors IMO. | |
| Which is better, a fussy speaker or a versatile one? Does the fussy one have a higher top floor or it’s just fussy? | |
| W4S DAC Have you looked at any R2R dacs? Best digital I’ve had was a Musician Aquarius. It was just different. Can’t explain it but it was plenty detailed and just made every damn thing sound awesome any very analog sounding. No idea how it measured. Lis... | |
| Electronics for Harbeths -- $5-10K No digital sources needed because you play nothing digital or you have a good DAC? | |
| Integrated Amp ideas for a very young audiophile If you’re seriously thinking of spending that much maybe break up the budget and spend on an integrated and better speakers. |
