| Any experience of Valvet Audio E2se amplifier? Can a 12wpc amp handle the dynamic swings, driving a pair of 86db sensitive speakers ? I am asking, because owning a pair of 104 db sensitive horns, and sometimes using a hand built,1 wpc class A amp ( chassis and transformers of an old HK Citatio... | |
| Suggestions on Integrated Amp./Seperates to Run my Klipschorns If your Khorns are stock, I would recommend updating / replacing the crossovers. I also recommend, damping the mid horns and tweeters, using a product such as Dynamat. There are youtube videos discussing and showing how this is done. The metal bra... | |
| Bose 901's with "highend ancillaries"?? Watching this youtube video, my one thought is : his placement of his 5 901's is atrocious. Yet, he feels it sound great. I would not think so, based on my experience, with the many pair I installed. | |
| Power Amplifier To Pair with Klipsch KLF-20's Have you tried it, without a source, connected to the amp ? | |
| Power Amplifier To Pair with Klipsch KLF-20's 1st, you do not need a preamp ( a passive would do ), and if you went direct from your source ( your source would neeed a volume control ), to your 5800, you likely would not hear any noise. 2nd, damp the horns ( both mids and tweets, and the woof... | |
| How Do You Live The Audiophile Life If you are speaking to me........Yes, I know he plays a Fender Tele, which goes through an amplifier. All electrics, go through an amplifier....the use of a reverb, is to get a type of sound. I prefer, less reverb, which is my personal preference. | |

| How many NICE looking high end floor standing speaker are there at present Michelle, as a retired audio consultant, I need to always place the sound quality of a speaker ( an entire system, actually ) before aesthetics.

| Have a problem with my JOB INT - how to contact company for service... My understanding is, the TELOS 7 integrated is a Goldmund product, not a JOB product ( yes, I am very aware of the product lines of each ). I am unaware of JOB being back with new products. I'm just sayin'. | |
| Volti Razz Loudspeakers Whether the Razz is better than the CW IV, which is questionable, I do agree, that Greg Roberts is a master. So was PWK, whose original Heritage designs were adapted by Greg ( the Lascala, in particular ). What I will say, is that once a person li... | |
| If I just use a DAC, do I need a Pre-amp? Subject = Ad Nauseam........My Luminous Audio Axiom, Walker mod, 3 in, 2 out, with remote, is just what the doctor ordered. I do not hear it, in my signal chain. The chassis does not resonate, the connectors and wires are top notch, the switch and... | |
| Tube Preamp with Solid State Amp? Honestly, it is wonderful, when you can find the combo, that is right for you. I have gone passive ( Luminous Audio Axiom Walker unit ), and enjoy my dac and tuner feeding my ss power amps directly, driving my modified Klipsch Lascalas. I do not w... | |
| Your Pick Between These Two... If you go the Klipsch route, the Cornwall IV would be my recommendation, as a significant upgrade over the IIIs, which I think, mijostyn might have meant. | |
| To horn or not to horn @isochronism, I always had my own listening room, so the acceptance factor of a wife / live in gf, was never an issue. @tomic601 , you must think I have lost my hearing. I have always been careful ( might seem contradictory ), and although, my lis... |
