| What's your profession? Age? I own a calibration laboratory as well as a refurbished/rental test equipment company. 45 years old for two more weeks!!! With my first paycheck from the lumberyard when I was 16, I bought a Panasonic quad 8 track player, had 4 speakers in a 6x8 r... | |
| MBL 101E and tubes? see all my threads... I think you amps would work well with those speakers, just get speaker cables that would speed up the sound like maybe nordost tyres. I had vt100mkii on my mbl's, and if I wasn't trying to assault state of the art, or ran out... | |
| Best amps for MBL101e's? to all.. thanks for your great posts, as I mentioned earlier, I bought the 9011's and right now am trying to search for best speaker cables. Curriemt11... that is a bold statement that you don't miss tube amps at all. I have previously found both ... | |
| Best amps for MBL101e's? Osgorth Tara 1's.. and I bought them.. bi-wired speaker cables. I did not want to try any of the better ones for fear I might want to buy them. I have a great sound now, defined, crisp bass, organice mids and highs. I also bought a Tara 1 power ca... | |
| Best amps for MBL101e's? Osgorth, trying Tara cables today, gonna see what they do. I tried single ended yesterday, I do think that the balanced are more relaxed, but then again it was old transparent musicwave ultras against Synergistic balanced. I think the single ended... | |
| Best amps for MBL101e's? Osgorth, yup, supposed to try the apex whenever they actually let me know they have wires to try. I only live like 5 miles from their factory. Right now I am using (and I know sounds counterintuitive) Acoustic Zen Satori on the highs and Nordost T... | |
| Looking for a warm budget monitors??? Vienna Acoustics Haydns. I have had a pair in my office with even an adcom amp for over 8 years and have never really gotten the itch to mess with them, very very musical, not picky about amplification. When I changed the adcom for a bow wazoo and... | |
| Best amps for MBL101e's? vertterone... too late, damnbit! I bought the 9011's. They are dynamic as all getout, but no, they don't have the tube happiness. The longer I have had them (2 months) the more I wish for tubes. I just ran out of patience. But then again, I might ... | |
| Best amps for MBL101e's? Louis2859 never tried the Boulder stuff... Its a different owner of MBLs who has... can't remember who though, sorry :( | |
| Review: Usher BE-10 Speaker We really have to get together... I lost your email addy in a recent computer failure.. but how fun would it be to have Mbl101s and BE-10s to use as test beds for our mutual addiction?Cheers,Cps...please please don;t use old socks:) | |
| Meridian 808 or NOT Meridian 808 I have had, in my home, Meridan, Ayre CD-5x, Wadia 861, Esoteric X-03, and the Meitner combo. For me, hands down, the Meitner won. The Meridian was a dealer demo, and fully borken in, they asked me to take it home and compare it to the Meitner sta... | |
| isolation Yes it does. Although with a really good stand, it is my experience that additional isolation is not as big a deal. Vibration, especially on anything that has moving parts, is an absolute soundkiller. If a mechanism is rotating on the horizontal p... | |
| Recommended one make systems? Personally, 1 brand system is a good thing 4 people who love music and want no fuss. And it tends to have higher WAF factor. Never found Linn to be good sound value 4 dollar..but works well. looks good. If you like Krell sound. they match well tog... | |
| WAF - Wife Acceptance Factor regalma1---too funny. Been there with a different wife | |
| Words From the Wise 1. Find a dealer who has great sound in their showroom, and then make sure they will do/allow home demos.If you have a good dealer, IMHO, all the rest will fall into place |
