| Pure Silver Wire This is actually something I wouldn’t mind trying. Silver bar is 99.9%+ pure. Sounds pretty high. So much so that I feel there is no degradation due to alloys. Grain structure ok. I do understand that metrology is something have experience wit... | |
| Pure Silver Wire @roxy54 I was suggesting solid core large diameter. Have heard about silver strand speaker wire but it's more like the solid core like you find in house 12/2 electrical wiring style. It's not all that difficult to find someone that draws wire an... | |
| Subs? Go JL!! And hope you pick up an active crossover JL-1 from them as well. Big difference cutting off the lows from the 804’s and sending them off to a pair of subs. It takes effort however when the right frequency and slope is determined the transi... | |
| Retirement integrated amp for a “fiscal conservative”…..Part 1: I have a plan $8k can get you $25k worth of 10yr old very high quality (Pass, Mac, etc) used gear. Way better deal in my honest opinion | |
| Bryston? Lots of info on this since the move to Dwight Ontario after purchasing Axiom. Company went from being located in the "Boonies" to a further location about 2hrs in the middle of no where. Very few employees went with the move, hint, hint. In th... | |
| Parasound A21 In Mono vs. Parasound JC1's 804’s are good to go with bridging A21’s. You will have the power and control you are looking for. If they were say 802’s I would definitely say no. Warm them up for a day or so before you are ready for a serious listening session and you will be ... | |
| As good or better than Magnepan 3.7i 2.7’s with an active crossover and a couple of small quick subs like REL will get you all you could ever want and then some | |
| Krell Moves to new location Wouldn't it be funny to drive over there and a couple of guys are selling stuff out the back door. Just wacks of gear, parts even the tech bench tables | |
| Bryston Model T Signature speakers Rebranded Axiom whom they purchased a bit ago. They also moved operations to the Axiom plant in Dwight Ontario from Peterborough which is an additional 2hr drive into the middle of nowhere. Many employees did not make the move- hint, hint. Th... | |
| Bryston BP-17 cubed or Benchmrk LA4 Preamp Congrats on using the Paragon System E. I have one as well and is extremely well built and crafted. Tough to beat at triple the price | |
| Reasonably priced preamplifier I have found pre's do not contribute as much dollar for dollar for me than amplifiers or speakers. The Benchmark and SPL Elector are both very neutral and quiet. New both can be had brand new for half what your budget is. | |
| Pass labs krell parasound amps An extra thousand should get you a X350.8 used if not a bit less but when the deal pops up it will go quickly. Many have reported the 350 superior in many ways to the 250. I have the 350 | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Why not stay with what you have? They are excellent speakers | |
| 15 amp circuit VS. 20 amp Circuit Maybe more of a setup Fritz had with his stack of Krell's | |
| Anyone at home at Krell? If they do go belly up hopefully, if they are not already available readily, they give up all the intellectual property like schematics and so on so every stand a good chance of fixing everything up down the road. I'm sure that is worth money so m... |
