15 watts & 94 db eff. speakers: how loud? rockadanny - I read (in TAS I think) that 3db is not detectable to the human ear and that 10db sounds like double the volume even though 3db is actually double when instruments are used. | |
Hum.....?? maybe the center post on the rca connection is not touching firmly | |
15 watts & 94 db eff. speakers: how loud? I have found speaker and amplifier ratings to be misleading. You really just have to hear it for your self.I easily drove 88db Trentes with a 18wpc Soro amplifier, they rocked! and when I switched to 94db AN speakers it did not seem much louder. O... | |
Meridian 508.24...sound compared to newer players BTW FWIW I did compare my Muse to a Electrocompaniet ECM 1UP (or whatever their newest and best was a few years back) and they were similar in performance with the Electro being a little smoother and that was the biggest difference, at around $400... | |
Meridian 508.24...sound compared to newer players I have listened to the 508 24 at home and now own a Muse model 9 genIII which is very similar performance (that is to say extremely enjoyable to listen to) and I have wondered the same thing.

Amp for Magnepan 3.1 speakers BTW I tried Plinius, Innersound and Rogue with my 1.6s and stayed with Plinius but always thought the Quads would make a really good choice because of the high current they output and Maggies (and ESLs) need. As a bonus I have seen them for around... | |
really inexpensive power cords Jalapenos is right about VenHaus (VH) I used their formula to make some terrific PCs for about $50 apiece. An respected Agoner compared this self made product with PCs in the $500 range and preferred the VH. They made an immediate improvement in m... | |
Amp for Magnepan 3.1 speakers Quad 909 with their current dumping design would work well with Maggies (I bet) also Quad amps are very neutral and natural | |
Amps on the cheap....real cheap Sufentanil,A few years back I saw a few of them in the $1000+ price range so presumed they could be had for less now but did not see any for sale here. Maybe it is because Innersound is out of business and people are holding on to them or none are... | |

Mark Levinson 326S or Audio Research Ref 3 ? The Absolute Sound magazine has reviewed the Ref 3 and says it is among the best pre amp ever made. I do not think there is any doubt of this... |
