| Looking for a Speaker Recommnedation Seems like they historically have been said to need big amp power, but not sure about that model. Supposed to have great time alignment and imaging. | |
| Looking for a Speaker Recommnedation @twoleftears " There's one of those right now on Agon for $4.9K and further room to negotiate. How would the bass compare between the Focus 380 and the Contour S3.4 LE? "The 380 is rated deeper, at 30Hz, vs 35Hz for the 3.4LE. But that doesn... | |
| Looking for a Speaker Recommnedation Yesterday, I got to hear Goldenear Triton 1 and a bunch of Bowers and all the Bowers and Wilkins 800 series speakers(at two different dealers). I didn’t know much about the Triton 1, but I have to say that for $5K, that is some pretty dang good st... | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables ozzy,I am playing my Oppo BDP-83 via HDMI into a Denon AVR-X5200 receiver, which is connected via High Fidelity CT-1 interconnects to my Krell FPB-400cx power amp. Legacy Audio Signature II speakers connected with Cerious GE speaker cables. | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables @jsm71 I can echo your finding of bass extension, which is very deep. My only concern is that, while they do go so deep, I’m not sure about the attack and impact of it. I’m not sure if that is because they lack in that department, or if some other... | |
| Looking for a Speaker Recommnedation " Will see if there is someplace I can demo the the Vandy CT’s and do some research on the ProAc and Legacy. Would prefer if at all possible to stay closer to $5k. "@fdemello If you are looking in the $5K range, and still want to check out Legacy ... | |
| Looking for a Speaker Recommnedation Lots of very nice options there! Dang, for $7K, you can get into a set of Legacy Audio SignatureSE. I was able to do a home audition on them in the Black Onyx finish a few months ago, and they are pretty awesome for music and movies. Air Motio... | |
| High Current Outlet for Amps? " It depends on the class of amplifier, as randy-11 stated. With typical class AB amp music power is very low, being only a few percent of peak power (unless you listen to sine waves). "What about for an amp like my Krell FPB 400-cx, which I ... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? @almarg Thanks for injecting a bolus of reason into this thread! The basic premise of the cable deniers here seems to be well summed up by shadorne:"Surely the wishful thinking is on the part of any person believing that a mere piece of copper ... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? IMO, the question is not, as you posited it, who thinks an expensive cable is "better" than a cheap cable? The question for an audiophile is, can you hear a difference between cables? If there is indeed a difference, then one of them may very we... | |
| Need recomendation for an IC to fill out and enrich the sound between amp and pre-amp. I bought a pair of these Cardas XLR to RCA adapters to connect my XLR only Krell amp. The sound seems to be fantastic with my High Fidelity CT-1 interconnect. By using these adapters, you can use any cable you want, and you can easily swap out ca... | |
| Killer Floor Standing Speakers under $4000 for Rock? I have Legacy Signature IIs and they do sound good, but it seems like my Dynaudio Audience 82s kick more ass on drum shots and the like. I'm surprised nobody has suggested a nice used set of Dynaudio. | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables Hi Bob, I’m not up on such devices; perhaps some gurus here can chime in.Since you mentioned break in, what is your (or any owners with experience) current recommendation on that? What aspects of the sound should I expect to change during break in... | |
| The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question 203, that is. | |
| The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question Huh? UHD Blu-ray titles are numerous and widely available. I bought a 302 specifically to be able to play them. Also, I'm not much of a fan of streaming. |
