| Pre-amp, integrated, new power amp...I'm confused OK, i have decied to go the route of a new tube based preamp. That seems to make the most sense to me. I think the NAD amp section is good enough for now. I did some calculations and when I bought the NAD new, it was only $80 more than a matching ... | |
| Need a good high-pass Xover for Sonus REL Thanks for the info! I think I just neeed to tweek the REL's crossover a little. | |
| Integrated amp reccomendations Jalanc, I like that idea, of adding a tube preamp. I looked at Monarchy's web site (I don't care fot the web site) but I can't find the item you're describing. I saw a new Pre/Dac that costs around $1500, but I Can't find the one you mentioned. Do... | |
| Integrated amp reccomendations I was thinking Musical Fielity A5 integrated. Is the A308 that different?Maybe I'll stick with the NAD. People seem to think to get a substantial performance incrase, I would have to spend a lot more. | |
| Center Channel options for Sonus Faber Homage L&R If you are getting the Amati Anniversario, they have similar drivers to the cremona line, but I agree with Jb. | |
| REL sub hook up Thanks for the feedback everyone. I don't plan on turning the rel off, I just want to be able to make A/B comparisons at times. Thanks a bunch! | |
| REL Stadium 3 vs. 2 Basically, the main difference is a power increase to the Stadium III. The II has a 100 watt amp, the II has a 200 watt amp. But since amplifier wattage is exponential, the stadium III is 10 TIMES more powerful than the Stadium II amp. The stadium... | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations Thiel's Smart subs are a little out of my price range. But Stereophile said they are fabulous. | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations I read your write up, Jimmy2615, and it was quite informative. I know the stadium would be overkill, but I want to have options open to me if I ever switch the room my system is in. The other 2 rooms I am considering moving it to are quite large. ... | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations WOW. Thanks alot for the info. One more question: Has anyone auditioned the new REL britannia line yet. How would a B3 compare to a used Stadium III. Both are 200watt, bot are 10 inch drivers, however the Stadium III is rated to go a little lower.... | |
| Tivoli Radio??? I own two of them. They do sound great, and can play pretty loud for a radio of their size. I would take a tivoli over a Wave radio anyday | |
| Help me with this choice Paradigm, JM Lab, Sonus Thanks a lot Guys and/or Gals. I am taking everybody's advice into consideration. Keep it coming. | |
| Cambridge Audio Azure vs. NAD c320bee, c740 I just bought the Azure 640C. It is a huge step up to my 12 year old changer. I use an NAD C370 as my integrated amplifier. The C370 is awesome, however the new C372 is out. They are basically identical except for a slight power increase. Funny th... | |
| Would like some help with what to buy? for 4-5k$ Personnally, I would avoid Klipsch and Yamaha....UNLESS...thats the kind of stuff you're into. Yamaha packs a lot of features into their receivers, like DSP. Digital Signal Processing is Yamaha's claim to fame. It lets the receiver emulate certain... |
