| 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... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range mesch, I am using a Douk Audio little passive in my system above that I have found to be cleaner than the Schiit Sys, ( I finally had one on loan ) although it has only 1 in and 1 out. Less than $50. shipped. Tiny little thing, very well built and... | |
| Im looking for an expert review of my system No mention of your price range ? Besides, if you try something else, it does not appear that you will need to get rid of the Kappas. As far as the room, only you can tell. Do you have a dedicated electrical line or two for your system ? That would... | |
| Lets replace my Klipsch La Scala Speakers Did not mean to end the thread. I come on too strong sometimes. | |

| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range I am currently running my pair of STA 200s in vertical passive biamp mode, on a pair of not well known, Signet SL 280 ex floor standers ( a sleeper of a speaker, imo ). They are a two way, and was a competitor with speakers under the $1500. price ... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range The input sensitivity of the Nuforce STA 200 is .45 V. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Speaker Pairing for a Fisher 800C - A True "Bedroom" System A pair of Klipsch Heresy 1s or 2s would sound wonderful with the Fisher, and works great when closer to the rear wall. Available at or under your price range. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range smrex13 mentioned the Nuforce STA 200 above, and it is the amp tomic referred to, as me being a fan. If memory serves me, your Vandy 2 Cs allow for biwiring, as I know Richard Vandersteen believes very much in the concept, as do I and others like ... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range What speakers ?, the rest of the system ?, your room ?, your musical tastes ?, and do you play louder at times ? If you want " musical ", you will likely get recommendations on getting a tube preamp, if you currently do not use one. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Looking for my first DAC OP, not that it matters in the case of a dac, but how is your AR preamp feeding the Acoustats ? You must have an amp of some kind. BTW, I am considering a newer dac, as I just posted as well for some opinions, although more specific. Thank you, an... | |
| picking speakers (and electronics) for a relatively large room - new The fact that you do not sit in a dedicated sweet spot leads me to recommend an omni, such as Ohm. The largest model is in your price range, as well as proper amplification to drive them. And, if streaming is your main source, listening mostly to ... | |
| The most important factor in soundstage imaging With all due respects, I put many other system attributes before sound staging and imaging, although I appreciate that my system can disappear, soundstage and image with the best of them. Tone, coherence, dynamics, agility ( prat ), detail, are al... | |
| The most important factor in soundstage imaging I appreciate the op’s post, and agree with the importance of his assessment, but ime, there are many more factors in getting excellent staging and imaging. |
