| Integrated amp for 2500-3000 I had a Lyngdorf integrated with my DX9 for a while. It’s got amazing room correction and did wonders for those Vegas. Could probably find a used 2170 for well under 3k or even a new 1120 although I’ve never heard it. Those old Vegas despite being... | |
| Solid State preamp Brands IMO I wouldn’t use a digital preamp unless you want to also use the included dac or you want to use room correction if it has that. | |
| Integrated Tube Amp approx. $2,500 +1 on the Octave 40SE. | |
| Solid State preamp Brands I've been very impressed with the Naim preamp I picked up. Much better than the tube pre I was using before and dead quiet. | |
| Speaker Suggestions for Next Move When I got my Cornwalls they were completely lined inside with No Rez from GR Research. I removed the No Rez from 1 speaker and compared to the other one. I much preferred the non No Rezzed cabinet. The No Rez sucked the life and mid bass out of t... | |
| Speaker Suggestions for Next Move I had the Cornwall IV for some months last year. They did some things very well and were always a fun listen. I had to have them pretty close to the walls to get what I’d call respectable bass out of them. I picked up a pair of Paradigm Founde... | |
| Speakers low pitch humming, is it normal, or real issue with preamp? If you can only hear it from a few inches away I wouldn’t worry about it. The only setup I ever had that was Completely silent was a Lyngdorf integrated. If you sit in the quiet room and really listen and can hear something then that’s a different... | |
| Looking to upgrade my Goldenear Triton ones. Need help @avanti1960 , there is a certain level of adjustability in Arc after you run it. I put a small extra bump at 80hz. That’s as far as I went with it. Not sure the full capabilities. | |
| Looking to upgrade my Goldenear Triton ones. Need help Paradigm Founder 120H. Very complete speaker. I had the Triton 1 for around a year and a half. They were pretty goodish. Tekton DIs knocked them off the shelf. Had several speakers after that and always missed the Tektons. The Paradigms I can conf... | |
| Micromega M-100/150 I had an M100 for a while. I don’t recall any weird clicks or noises when turning on. | |

| Streamer, Dac,with Pre Amp Just got a Naim NAC N272 on a trade. Running it into a Pass XA30.5. It’s very very good IMO. Just being phased out but has been a 6k model since 2016. Can pick one up for $1500 or so now used. Steal for that price. | |
| Amp for Persona B Speakers @jaybe , im surprised the 30.5 is not damn near the perfect amp for those speakers. You might be disappointed as that amp is killer especially to tone down a wily speaker. | |
| JL Audio Fathom V3 Sub in development??? Maybe they will match the build quality of components with the sound this time! Too many failures in the field. Sent my V1 in for the $400 fix and worked fine for about a month or 2.Hum is back off and on and auto cal doesn’t work now. It’s not 40... | |
| speakers that are a little laid back in the mids If you list what you have had in the past it would give some kind of reference. |
