| Budget floorstading with a good waf.... Help For about $500 more than the Aria, you may want to at least audition the Monitor Audio GX200, which feature a ribbon tweeter. Nice looking speaker. | |
| Thoughts on New Krell Amps Am I reading the Krell web site correctly that they now only make TWO stereo power amps? Also, hasn't the rap on Krell been that they have killer bass, but not as good as Pass and some others in the mids and highs? How do the new iBias amps do in ... | |
| what amp under a grand? Well, it seems like those are very good cables, so maybe it is some sort of room interaction. I'm not much of a guru on that topic, but I have heard that square-ish rooms are not good. What are the room dimensions? It could be that a bunch of refl... | |
| what amp under a grand? Two channel sound from the Marantz/Adcom combo certainly should NOT be "muddy". That is some decent equipment. How are you connecting your SACD player to the receiver, i.e., via HDMI or analog interconnects? And if you are using interconnects, wha... | |
| Pass Integrated to Pass separates Bo, you said above you really like the X250.5 but the X150.5 not so much. Can you explain why there would be that much difference between two so similar amps? What did you feel the X150.5 lacks, for your purposes? | |
| Pass Integrated to Pass separates Nice! Would you give us your evaluation of the X250.5 after you spend some time with it? I'm also researching Pass, and was mainly considering the X150.5, but read some reviews on the 250 which have me reconsidering. And, yes, I've spoken with Mar... | |
| Need HELP with center channel choice Overpowering? Sounds like nonsense to me, since you will calibrate the front three speakers to the same level anyway. Furthermore, as you may know, the center channel is the most important for home theater, so you want the best center speaker you ... | |
| Pass Integrated to Pass separates Here's another question for you with Pass experience. With the X series amps, Pass says they operate in class A up to a certain level of wattage output, say, for example, 10 watts, while the XA30.5 is rated for 30 watts class A. So, for someone wi... | |
| Pass Integrated to Pass separates Hi Bo, not to hijack the thread too much, but I am researching Pass amps and thinking about buying one for my Legacy Audio Signature II speakers(very large floorstanders). Do you like the X250.5 much more than the X150.5? Seems like they should so... | |
| Verity Parsifal Anniversary coming in 2 weeks Yes, I just checked out their site, and it's hard to easily figure out the progression of their models up the line. The lack of any pricing on the site also doesn't help. Also, their dealer finder shows no dealer within 400km of me. They do look g... | |
| Your favorite musical non fatiguing speakers? So, are these sold direct? And can you briefly comment on how you decided on Verity? | |
| Looking for "realistic" speakers Larry, the Legacy, Deadalus(30 day no-risk audition period on all non-showroom direct sales), and Selah(45-day money-back guarantee) brands I mentioned above are sold direct. | |
| Looking for "realistic" speakers Oh, also, as Johnny said, check out those Cremona M. I've heard those, and that is a sweet sounding speaker. | |
| Looking for "realistic" speakers "When I say I'm looking for scale, I don't mean floor to ceiling speakers or anything (we're currently set up in a smaller room anyway (15 X 25) but that will change."OK, I thought you were referring to the "scale" of the musical presentation the ... | |
| Looking for "realistic" speakers "Best realistic speakers under $5K anyone? I currently have everything in a fairly small room, that may or may not change in the near future. I want something that can scale - but giant Maggies (or anything else giant) won't work."I'd agree with o... |
