| Creek 5350 SE and Maggies At that price point...nothing wrong with Creek...but I would as audition Bryston b-60 intergrated...dont get hung up on the specs...it is only rated at 60w...but this is a very conservative Bryston rating...my dealer had them paired with the 1.6s.... | |
| Good match for Spendor S3/5s? I also agree with Subaruguru...even in a small room...the 3/5 is pushing the laws of physics...I would probably opt for the 3/1p...which is my favorite SPendor product...that would be a nice combo...or...to cause more confusion...I was considering... | |
| Good match for Spendor S3/5s? I agree...Bryston is known for providing excellent bass performance...which is why I gather my dealer has them with Spendors and Maggies...both great speakers which sounded a bit bass shy with other brands...good luck... | |
| What is the Best Speaker thats no bigger than 14 Wow!...you have some nice gear! I agree...those mini Uptopias are awesome....my dealer also has PMC db1 or db2s which are small monitors with great bass(they use a transmission line design)...I also like the Quad 11LS...but they are rear ported...... | |
| Something wrong with the Studio 100 v.2? For the money....the $1500 Quad 21L simply embarrases the majority of floorstanders I have heard...and in the great Quad tradition...very transparent, open, and unreal 3-d imaging...with tight, musical bass...a must audition... | |
| REL Quake/MJ acoustics pro 50 sub Good point...at that price I will probably check out Hsu, Adire(Rava), or MJ Acoustics when overseas...cheers... | |
| NHT ST-4. Great deal and sounds funny Help GURUS My vote for best monitors under $1200 is Quad 12Ls...with truly stable "out of box" 3-d imaging...and a soundstage that really is astonishing regardless of speaker size...the sound is very open, bold, fast, and clean.... | |
| Loud and Live Humble Pie...Performance at the Fillmore...Cheap Trick live at Budokan...AC/DC live at Atlantic Studios...Judas Priest also has a killer live album(title escapes me)...Ramones..Its Alive...Queen: LIve Killers...WHO live at LEEDS... | |
| Inexpensive SACD player....? The older SOny dvp ns500 v featured a 24/96 DAC...which is why the reviews have been favorably in both redbook and not surprisingly SACD...the newer 755 has a cost cutting 12bit DAC...but is a progressive scan DVD player..hence for music applicati... | |
| What is next after Paradigm Studio S-40 I would put the Quad 12L in the same breath as SPendor and Revel monitors...not as dark or forgiving as Spendors...more in common with the uncolored, high definition sound of Revel...but a very open, coherent, and dynamic midrange...and less than ... | |
| NHT ST-4. Great deal and sounds funny Help GURUS I auditioned NHT at my local dealer as was not that impressed...did a/b with the st-4 and the Spendor 3/5...no comparison...the NHT had that "cotton in the ears" sound...granted deeper bass....but I would opt for accuracy and transparency myself... | |
| What is next after Paradigm Studio S-40 I would have to agree...the studios are hard to surpass...let alone for the money...they are surprisingly transparent...I would suggest Maggies with the Bryston which my dealer has and is a killer combo...but if you already have stands with the st... | |
| Spendor 3/5 SE special edition Allen..if I was going to upgrade...from Spica tc-50s(which I have owned)....I would opt for a monitor with deeper bass to intergrate more seamlessly with your sub...the 3/5 would be a lateral move in bass extension....around 70hz...so you wouldnt ... | |
| The British speaker sound: Tannoy, Harbeth, etc... I listened to Spendor,Sonus Faber,B&W, to name a few...and went with the Quad 12L...they are not as colored as Spendors...and are far more "lively" in nature...not to mention superior in bass....however are more finicky with electronics and so... | |
| Who has the oldest speakers? I love vintage gear...until you turn it on! |
