| Did the Old Receivers Sound Good? Well listening to my 50 year old Sansui now and it sounds really really good and involving. It’s had service and completely checked out from the previous owner 10 or so years ago with a few things replaced. I have the receipts of 300 or so. I thin... | |
| Did the Old Receivers Sound Good? I’ve been putting back together my basement system. For the past 2 weeks I’ve been swapping out between a Musical Fidelity A1008, upgraded Jolida 302CRC, and my Sansui AU9500 on my Focal vinyl only system. That damn Sansui just sounds more alive t... | |
| Best €2500 sub purely for music? Wow the OP seems like a tool. People are trying to help you why be such a Dick! | |
| JM Reynaud Magic Stands V1 versus V2 Yup slightly more magic in the v.2s! sorry couldn’t resist. I just demoed some JM Offrande V2 yesterday! They were on the Magic stands V.1 likely. Really great speakers for sure. That treble is just something special along with the midran... | |
| The problem with PLC @secretguy ”The fool sure pulls a lot of you in.“ like just did you? haha right. wooops!! Me too | |
| Sleeper preamps: $500 new/used Prob get a Jolida Tube Preamp for around that. Really good. Not the quietest but really fruity and awesome! | |
| Sonus Faber Olympica nova 2 VS Sonus Faber Cremona M Loudspeaker vs If rock/metal and the like is a heavy staple of what you are listening to I don’t think really anyone would recommend Sonus Faber. Focal, B&W, JBL etc. Tektons are completely badass playing metal if wanna save some money. | |
| Used vs. new Might change weekly what my favorite system is but currently street MSRP would be 12k. I have under 2k into it. Love it! All great condition and could make money on it any day. I’ve never bought a piece Ive had a big issue with. Speakers are e... | |
| Ascend Acoustics Sierra 2 vs. Dynaudio Focus 140/160 FYI guy local to me had to lower his 140s to 600 before they sold. Just FYI. | |
| Ascend Acoustics Sierra 2 vs. Dynaudio Focus 140/160 The Focus 140 is a fun speaker. Got a mid/upper bass boost that makes it really fun for more modern rock, pop, country. I enjoyed mine a lot. They will not play bass heavy music extremely loud nor are they the most detailed or refined. They are ve... | |
| Older subwoofers better than newer subwoofers! @toro3 , Thanks for that! I have a Rythmic sub I bought used some months ago and while sounds good it just does not seem tight enough. With all the talk about how articulate the Rythmic subs are I have been diss appointed. I didn’t know about the... | |
| Fee for home audition If it’s been said and I missed it sorry but… I don’t think the idea of the 5% is ridiculous but for one hour is crazy. If it was for a weekend or week or 2 weeks. Yeah I could get that and it comes off the purchase price that you obviously can’t ... | |
| How old is too old (for SS gear)? My 1975 ish Sansui is awesome. I have the paperwork from some work done about 10 years ago but it is not extensive. All big caps etc look original with no obvious signs of failure. Perfect channel match as far as my ear can tell. I debated but dec... | |
| Streamers made in America? I am absolutely all in for buying local and buying USA. That said I won’t pay multiples for the same performance. If I was super wealthy would I? Maybe, not sure. | |
| We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often Great examples of each but I will say I’ve never really liked any super efficient speakers. I heard some Cornwall 4 when I was buying a sub for a guy and they sounded great for the little bit I heard them but playing music I don’t listen to at not... |
