| New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps? I went through this dilemma a year or so ago. I decided to keep driving my car of the last fifteen years, which is in great condition and provides a lot of driving fun. Many of us work remotely and so the amount we drive our cars is fairly minimal... | |
| Beginner Audiophile. How to chose a right amp? Recommendation for my setup? If I were you, I'd search every thread you can find on the Monitor Audio Gold 100 5G speaker to discover what others are using for amplification with this speaker. That will net you the best result. Synergy is everything in this hobby and finding ... | |
| Trust Schiit Loki @b_limo @rvpiano - fully agreed. Everything has its place, including tone controls. | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies @oregonpapa Great video! | |
| Thought My Harbeth M40.1's Were Forever Speakers - Guess Not @audiojedi I concur with you. All the Harbeth's I've heard need a few hundred hours to sound their best. I've liked them with Luxman and Line Magnetic. The LM 50-watt integrated works quite well with them and the two box LM that is just 30 very st... | |
| Pass Labs and Fuses @tommyu @nutella x2BTW, I’ve never tried fuses, but like all things audio, I expect they can and do have an effect on sound. People shouldn’t have such an aversion to trying it for themselves. I’ll get around to it myself some day. | |

| dissapointed - new LS50w's vs old PioneerFS52's/Luxman R113 - so far Kef's not so great? @yyzsantabarbara I appreciate the update. And I also didn't pay attention to the OP when they said they had the wireless setup. | |
| dissapointed - new LS50w's vs old PioneerFS52's/Luxman R113 - so far Kef's not so great? The problem with LS 50s is they need lots of good power. They don't work well with cheap $1,000 integrateds, at least not in my experience. You need good separates to motivate them to sing, and sing they will when you give them lots of good power. | |
| $27,500 for whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat??? Isn't this thread dead yet? | |
| My Harbeth C7ES-3 story... First off, congrats on having such a fun time. The 7s are a great speaker.For me though, they are bested by the 30.2s and SHL5+. I like either speaker quite a bit. But the 30.2 with a Line Magnetic 805 iA tube integrated, Gold Note two-box phono p... | |
| Are most recordings so bad it's not worth spending large on speakers? No.There are any number of great speakers, that paired with synergizing amp/preamp, will sing and make you all googly! Don't let anybody tell you differently. | |
| Brave man, McGowan... It's pretty simple, Paul is telling us/you to use your ears. That is all that is necessary. Then decide if you can't live without it or not. | |
| NEW Cerious Technologies Upgrade - Graphene Matrix Cables @ozzyno love for your home theatre?! | |
| Paradigm Persona the right source matters! @audiotroy"Our approach is to start with the loudspeakers, then find matching electronics, and cabling and then use the choice of digital or analog components flavor the sound to create the overall result".This is of course the most sound way to a... |
