| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? Khrys, for your information: Scintilla Review HiFi News:"... the response can be classed as very smooth. Theupper section can be seen to be mildly resonant at 50Hz, the lower more dominant at 30Hz. As the curve shows, the output had not fallen bel... | |
| Best Digital Amps Oxia is right. Mods can help a lot of components, and not others. To Oxia's list I would add Pass Labs, a whole seller. Through building a great reputation, they have been able to enjoy steady sales that support a lot of research and development. ... | |
| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? I tried to get back to my last post to amend it - too late. Now I'll have to take the heat from Quad owners. In my defense, I first want to confess the Quad is one of the greatest speakers ever. The thing that I love about the Scintilla is it equa... | |
| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? Khrs,You must have not tried many amps on your Duettas. I used a mere 150 watt amp on those "inefficient" speakers to very good results. Good enough to have Martin Logan owner and a Quad owner enjoy them.Only the Scintilla really fits the bill as ... | |
| Best Digital Amps Well, we all need to take anything we say with a grain of salt. We can only comment on what we have personally witnessed. I'm always willing to admit I am wrong. Said that, I still believe the X600 is the best solid state amp on this planet. I nev... | |
| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? I have a neighbor with Prodigies. Guess who's speakers he is "officially jealous" of? | |
| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? Yes, and I will torment you, until you relent, and get one for yourself. ;-) | |
| Best Digital Amps You know the TacT is a system, pre and amp. Knowing the speakers the TacT was playing on intimately, gives me a good clue what they are doing to the overall sound. Several of us heard the Llano 300 and the TacT on the same system. It was a toss up... | |
| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? That reminds me, of the conductor at the Smithsonian reporting his getting a kick out of fooling the audience by switching between a real Mozart piano and a playback through Apogee Divas. There is a pic on the web showing the Divas flanking Mozart... | |
| Best OTL speakers The Butler is not a normal OTL. It is a major advancement on the concept. I heard the most convincing rendition of taiko drums ever with the Butler powering Cabasse speakers. That is major bass control. | |
| Best Digital Amps Kana, I use my hearing to compare the two. There is no contest, the eAR is decidedly better. In fact, I can think of a lot of tube and solid state amps I would choose over the TacT. Same goes for the EVO. Fiddler, all mediocre equipment needs is s... | |
| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? We are talking speakers, Eldartford, not pianos. Your player piano is a piano. I have a piano too. Pianos sound different from one to another. I just might not find your piano agreeable. This conversation should be moved to a musical instrument si... | |
| Best Digital Amps Stereo Times reviewed the EVO very recently too. They are going to regret using up so many superlatives on the other reviewed digitals. I've hear all but the PS, and that is not in the same power league I need. IMO The eAR is hands down the very b... | |
| Piano that sounds like a piano Need more input. | |
| Opinions on Cary 301 and Jolida 100 I have read a review by a Cary/Jolida owner who preferred the Jolida. They both have the same drive. The Jolida costs less too. |
