| Speaker Recommendation: 20K range @ chandybeCheck with the Legacy people as to how it could be made to work. Also, I spoke with them in April, and they said they can build a passive version of the Aeris that would be easier to use in a multi-channel system. With a passive versio... | |
| Speaker Recommendation: 20K range Well, I will say, that is the size room the Aeris is meant for, i.e., big. Also, with the Aeris’ powered woofer sections, you wouldn’t be needing massive power for the mids/highs either, and your current amp situation should be fine. The Aeris set... | |
| PS Audio Stellar Gain DAC/Pre-amp as first foray into separate pre-amp? Thanks, it was the Impact that I was considering. The price is $199, Canadian. https://audiosensibility.com/blog/products-2/phono-cables-occ-copper-and-occ-silver/#!/Impact-SE-Str...Looks like the WW Eclipse 7 will run me more than twice the price. | |
| PS Audio Stellar Gain DAC/Pre-amp as first foray into separate pre-amp? @ auxinputThanks, I've been looking at a DIN phono interconnect from Audio Sensibility for my turntable. | |
| Speaker Recommendation: 20K range If you have the room, the set of Rockport Aquila on audiomart has to be the deal of the century. | |
| Speaker Recommendation: 20K range Well, if you like the Focal sound, there is the Sopra N3. If you like Legacy Audio, there is the Aeris. The Revel Ultima II Salon are also about that price new, but a lot of them are showing up around $11k used. The problem is, there are seemin... | |
| $1,000 speakers for rock music? Those UF5s look very nice for the money. I will say, the new Dali Oberon 7 they were showing at Rocky Mountain Audio Fest last weekend were amazing at $1,400/pair. Dali also has an Oberon 5 for less money. | |
| PS Audio Stellar Gain DAC/Pre-amp as first foray into separate pre-amp? Thanks, actually, I have the Oppo 203. I also have an Oppo BDP-83 in the bedroom system. Thanks for the ideas for digital COAX cables. What about an XLR cable to go from the Stellar Gain DAC to the Krell power amp?Edit: Oops, I just saw your last... | |
| PS Audio Stellar Gain DAC/Pre-amp as first foray into separate pre-amp? @ auxinput,Thanks for that tip about using PCM from the Oppo. At least that will get me nice two-channel SACD audio from the Oppo, although I'll still have to use the Denon AVR to listen to multi-channel SACDs, which often sound significantly bet... | |
| Help me design for both music and TV around Legacy Audio's Wavelet + Aeris Well, I too have been interested for some time in the Aeris, but have similarly been concerned about how I would integrate them into my AVR based system, through which I listen to Blu-ray movies, multi-channel SACDs, DVD-Audio discs, CDs, SiriusXM... | |
| PS Audio Stellar Gain DAC/Pre-amp as first foray into separate pre-amp? Thanks for the input. Regarding the I2S connection, is that only a PS Audio technology, or might there be some less expensive CD player that has I2S output that I could connect to the Stellar Gain? | |
| Best Speakers under 1k for me Having just left RMAF, all I can say is Dali Oberon, which is a brand new line of speakers. The Oberon 7 floor stander they demonstrated absolutely blew away everyone I know who heard them. The bass from these things is practically subterranean ... | |
| SPEAKERS, SPEAKERS AND MORE SPEAKERS.. BUT NEED BASS.? Another option that comes in well below your budget would be a set of the Canton Vento 890.2 from accessories for less. I'm seriously considering a set myself. | |
| SPEAKERS, SPEAKERS AND MORE SPEAKERS.. BUT NEED BASS.? Well, I'm with you about big full range speakers, as I don't have a lot of room for subs and I'm just a sucker for them. The Revel F208 towers are said to have quite strong bass. Used sets of them have been going for ~$3,500. Also, it will be h... | |
| [Newbie] What is the best i can do for under $5000 While at RMAF, check out the Elac speakers, as they have a great price/quality ratio, and they have models in your price range. |
