| For those who've moved from "vintage" to newer units I have had the Kenwood, Dyna and EV speakers. Your exact system. Your amp and preamp were just overhauled, so they should be good for another while. You might want to consider updating the crossovers ( more modern components ) of the EVs. If you a... | |
| Should an amp have a "personality"? I believe a system, as a whole, should be able to " show forth " the recordings, in such a way, that when you are in your listening seat ( the sweet spot ), you are hearing your favorite artists and musicians, performing at their " finest ", in th... | |
| Quick Klispch question If I sounded rude, I am sorry. It is relatively easy with the internet. The reviews I mentioned to read, and the data sheets on the Klipsch site ( not the forums ) under the product descriptions. It is all there. More changes than those specified ... | |
| Quick Klispch question Any of the 1/2 dozen professional reviews of the Heresy 3s goes into the changes made from the series 2 to the series 3. The Klipsch site says it all as well. If you have questions after all that you read, I will be happy to help. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Carver M1.5t vs. Krell or ML So, let me get this straight. You have not listened to the reconditioned 1.5T amp yet. You have not received your Dyna 140 speakers yet. You have not heard anything yet, tweaked anything yet, determined what your likes and dislikes are. The Dynas ... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range I am still not convinced it is the amp that is currently his weakness, but, as you say, he is the listener, and purchaser. BTW, I am no longer using my STA 200's in my main system, as I have been going through my closets and found an old gem that ... | |
| Quad ESL 63 In Another League Now Georgehifi, I am surprised at you. I have heard improvements better power cords can make with quite a few brands and models of electrostatic speakers. | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range Tomic, ty, and back at ya ! You too have a lot of background and experience. Can you find me ( know anyone ) a pair of ADS L 2030s ? ( from a prior thread discussion )… So, jackd, if the STA 200 sounded fine with the Nola KOs and the Verity Otello... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range tomic, I very well appreciate you being a Vandy fanboy, as I understand their many attributes. You seem defensive, and no need to be. Although I mentioned I was not a fanboy ( I am not a fanboy of many brands, as indicated ), I never suggested the... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range Thinking about your situation, why do you feel it is your power amp that seems to be the weakness ? I read up on the amp, and some users are saying it was better than their QSC and Crowns, both of which I owned many. In my remaining arsenal of pow... | |
| New Gallo Strata's sound like tin-cans: break-in time problem? With over 20 K worth of amp and preamp alone, why would you think a pair of the Strada would give you the same output as a pair of Maggies ? Too small for you and your room. I believe you purchased the wrong set of speakers, and just had unrealist... | |

| Constrained layer damping tape on toroidal transformer? It is a fact that every transformer has a vibration characteristic, and it amazes me why the majority of manufacturers do not isolate these from the chassis. It is one of the most significant modifications of any piece of gear, whether it be amp, ... | |
| Benchmark AHB2 - To 'mono' or not to 'mono' Vertically and passively bi-amp the Pulsars with a pair of AHB2 amps, rather than bridging. Plus, what George said. | |
| Easy to drive, outstandingly natural sound from 40-50 Hz up.....AN-E, O/96, others? This is what I want, and have ( thanks to the genius of PWK ) : Very high efficiency; Very low distortion; Very broad dynamic range ; Controlled directivity; Extremely fast and nimble; Flat frequency response; Excellent and honest tonal balance; V... |
