| What phono preamp are you using? No love for SPL? I just bought a Phonos a few weeks ago and I'm mightily impressed with it. | |
| Interesting comment on Bose Speakers..... I bought BP2000s back in the early 90s. Like you, I drank the kool aid. Didn't take long before I traded them in on a pair of VS VR4s, but for a helluva loss. | |
| Interesting comment on Bose Speakers..... @ishkabibil He’s got 4 systems listed in his profile. https://forum.audiogon.com/users/ghdprentice | |
| Will DAC always sound better going straight into a Power Amplifier? Are you looking for the best sound? Or do you just want to have a vintage preamp? More than likely they aren't one and the same. | |
| shiit Freya+ muffles the base? Recommendation for preamp please "muffles the base" That's interesting. But how is the bass? | |
| 1 piece of audio gear I really regret selling is.. I sold a pair of Montana SP2 II speakers to a buddy years ago. I ended up buying them back. Sold them again. Then bought another pair. I eventually moved on to larger Montana speakers, the SPX and EPS2. But I never recreated the magic of their lit... | |
| Records, CDs, Streaming 70/30 split between streaming ripped files/Qobuz and spinning vinyl. It's not that I think the digital side sounds better, they are pretty equal. It's just that I'm getting lazier in my old age. | |
| Most beautiful turntable under $5k @spiritofradio I have the same table and I agree, it is very nice to look at. Unfortunately your pictures didn’t post. It’s a shame that audiogon won’t allow posting of pictures from your device. The method they use is archaic. | |
| I heard a costly system from Esoteric. More than likely the headphone output on the amplifier was added as a convenience feature and not intended for serious listening. You were probably hearing the shortcomings of that inferior output and not the CD player or amp. But it is the re... | |
| Magnepan and Bob Carver Raven amps I ran 1.6s with 100 tube watts years ago. That same amp would NOT power the 3.5r. But with 400 watts on tap you should have no problem with the 3.7s. | |
| Most beautiful turntable under $5k Without a doubt... the Montegiro Lusso is/was the most outstanding turntable ever looking at it. Hideous. It might sound like the angel's trumpet, but it looks like hammered dog s&*t.... | |
| Cornwall IV speaker placement guidance There certainly are better speakers out there, but not many at the price you paid . | |
| Subwoofer between speakers? I had my subs between my speakers and my rack, slightly behind the speakers. But things really came together when I put them in the corners. | |
| DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... Still very happy with my Pontus II. | |
| Cornwall IV speaker placement guidance I agree with jon, your placement looks pretty good. I thought they sounded better a couple of feet out from the corners. Extreme toe in as in your picture works well, but experiment here, because this is subjective. They are very sensitive to toe ... |
