| Any good FM tuners around for less than $200? I don't know a whole lot about tuners in general, but I have a Pro-ject Tuner Box, which is small, works fine for me, and costs $199. When locked in, sounds very nice through my system, although in NYC, reception is sometimes a challenge. | |
| Upgrades for Rega P3. Worth it? Also kind of wondering what kind of impact the turntable mat has on overall performance. For example, if the mat itself is not perfectly flat, does that simply negate the benefits of a more precisely-machined subplatter? | |
| What is the Phono stage you have finished with? Am pretty happy with my Pro-ject Tube Box SE II, but then I haven't tried many others. | |
| Upgrades for Rega P3. Worth it? Thanks for all the advice! Looks like many folks here are positive on the upgrades. Suppose I shouldn't be too surprised. :)I also forgot to mention I've been using an old Tri-Pad turntable mat over the glass platter. Have read very good things ab... | |
| B&W N802 as an upgrade to 804S? I'm using the stock power cord from my amplifier (it's fixed, I think, need to check). I'm running this and all of the other components through a Monster Power HTS 2500 MKII conditioner. | |
| B&W N802 as an upgrade to 804S? Also, wondering if bi-amping this setup with another Exposure amp would bring more power to the bass drivers. Could go from 110W/ch to 220W/ch this way.Never quite understood the purpose of doing something like this, however, as I can't turn the v... | |
| B&W N802 as an upgrade to 804S? Thanks for your input. If the tweeter on N802 was actually harsher, then I'd agree I probably wouldn't like them. I had heard the 802D once and was really really blown away - also hooked up to a heavy McIntosh amp, in a store demo-room which proba... | |
| B&W N802 as an upgrade to 804S? Thanks for the responses. Just to be clear, I have the 804S (not N804) today. | |
| Good amp for B&W 804S for the space-constrained Ended up going with the Exposure 3010S - had heard about the company from a co-worker. Got a good deal on this model and am very happy with it, for less than half the cost of Simaudio (which I'm sure I would really have loved). Haven't had the vol... | |
| Exposure 2010S verses 3010S Looking for something with really good clarity, smooth highs, solid bass, and just a tiny bit on the warm side of neutral. Would 3010S fit that bill? | |
| Good amp for B&W 804S for the space-constrained Thanks for the suggestions. Will see if I can find a dealer. Someone I work with mentioned the Exposure 2010S. I've since done some reading and it seems this is a popular unit. Wondering how it may fare with the 804S and how it compares to Nait XS... | |
| Exposure 2010S verses 3010S Have been wondering exactly the same thing as I have B&W 804S and think the extra power of 3010S may help. | |
| Good amp for B&W 804S for the space-constrained Thanks for the advice. Any recommendations on a good pre? I've heard Rogue Perseus and enjoyed it but obviously it's a big difference in price (about $1000 more than the Rotel 1550). | |
| Good amp for B&W 804S for the space-constrained Thanks for the response. Are you saying it's your opinion that the Rotel is the better choice, or that it's the one you've heard? Somewhat contrary to what the dealers say when I sugggest it, but then again, they're dealers and the other choices a... | |
| B&W suggestions - N803 vs. 804S I'm still on a quest for an integrated that fits into my 16" deep space and will power my 804S speakers with clarity and full sound. I got a demo of Naim NAIT XS with the 804S today and was surprised the Naim could power these speakers. I think I ... |
