| mystery muffled mids following suggestions here, i tried another pair of speakers. it's definitely not the speakers. Thanks! | |
| mystery muffled mids Thanks for your response. i do. didn’t think of it. they are not in the same league, however, as the 805s. what would be my conclusion though if sound is better for rnr but worse for other music? | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk tried raven with B&W 805s D3. did not like what I heard. There was a strong buzzing sound. amp got very very hot. I can't imagine using that in the summer. Had Rotel before and ended up with Hegel. Very happy. I would not recommend Raven. | |
| Killer used integrated for only one person mentioned Rotel. so, here is another vote for it. I prefer it over all other amps I had (Nad, Marantz). | |
| Better Integrated Amp? my reason to get integrated is that I did not want to deal with too many choices. I got one that allows me to stream and strongly recommend Hegel. Worth the price. My second choice would be Rotel. Used. I did not read carefully all recommendations... | |
| $1000 bookshelf speakers with "recessed", "laid back" or "flat" mid-range? i know what you mean about the presentation of Elac speakers. I compared them to B&W and much prefer the gentle and laid back sound they give. no reason to buy new. Used are great | |

| Raven or Hegel? thanks for the suggestion. Raven and Hegel are around 3k which is a stretch already. Luxman around 6k which is way out of my price range, unfortunately. | |
| best budget amp/preamp for B&W 805 D3s thanks! | |
| best budget amp/preamp for B&W 805 D3s no. but used are half 6k. and deciding on an integral amp simplifies my process. when you are new at this, options are just overwhelming. thanks again. | |
| best budget amp/preamp for B&W 805 D3s thanks for your post, westcoastaudiophile, I am looking at Hegel H390 integrated. here are its specifications. If I understand your post correctly, it seems that this integrated amp meets the requirement. Technical SpecificationsPower output: 2 x ... | |
| best budget amp/preamp for B&W 805 D3s many thanks to everyone who responded. i don't normally talk about sound. perhaps, clarity and detail. i listen to new classical music, jazz, some world stuff. | |
| does MacBook Pro need a DAC? many thanks to everyone who responded to my original question.following consensus advice, i got a DAC, cheap one, Shiit Modi 3.And you were RIGHT as far as I can tell. Detail, detail, detail -- much more of it. | |
| does MacBook Pro need a DAC? i listen to Tidal. Master tapes are favorites of course. Based on what you all said here, I decided to go with an option I can afford at the moment, Shiit Midi 3. My tastes are eclectic but tend to new classical music. Will post my experience with... |
