Luxman L-509X @yyzsantabarbara I am definitely looking forward to The Show Newport. I live about five miles away and will probably go at least two days. Always have gone just one day and am totally tired out and didn't get to see all I wanted to.Yes, Mike is in... | |
marantz model 9 service @huntingsnapcapsKevin @ Upscale Audio has some old Marantz tube product and loves all things tube. He probably has a good idea who could help you out. | |
Luxman L-509X @yyzsantabarbara The 509X review I posted is the first according to Mike @ Excel Audio. FYI, he is by appointment only. Great guy to work with. Mike will also have the Luxman C900u + M900u in by the end of the week.BTW, if you haven't read yet, th... | |
Luxman L-509X @yyzsantabarbara Finally had the chance to hear the L-509X. All listening was using Marten Django L speakers and a $12.5k turntable; Nordost cabling. The Luxman has good neutral deep resolution; the sound stage was wide and had some depth with ins... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD @david_ten Actually, I took it as a joke; I saw it for what it was and didn't give it a second thought. It did not appear to be an inside joke or kidney punch - just a little fun. Matt has been the OP of decorum and civility and provided a wealth ... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD @mattnshilp Matt,Enjoyed the first three videos. Like Steve, I'd love for you to explain your speakers and how they work.Note: The lighting you are using seems to add a blue hue but is also appreciated. Certainly better than no lighting at all. | |
MBL 111F or 101E ???? @peppapig "in your post you said even 126 sounds so close to the 101e mk2, can you give a bit more details? Like which aspects sounds similar? what about the soundstage, 126 as wide as 101e? And what about the tonal? As real as 101e?"What I was tr... | |
MBL 111F or 101E ???? @peppapigMBL are wonderful speakers. And not as hard to drive as may be thought. Go see this thread and read the comments by Atmasphere. Also, in that thread I talk about the MBL models I've heard and you can get some ideas there. Prof also provid... | |
Luxman L-509X OK, thanks for the clarification.Hoping to hear with TAD E-1s soon. | |
Luxman L-509X @dguitarnut "the fact that it has bass, mid and treble tone controls really would help out tailoring problem rooms" I am lost on this comment since my brochure shows only bass and treble tone controls. Can you explain for me? My dealer has this un... | |

Amps for KEF Blade 2 Hi Dave,I appreciate your comments. But in this case, ghosthouse better understood the essence of my comments. Yes, I have not heard the T+A gear with Blade Two's, just the Hegel H360 and that is what I was trying to convey.I have heard much of th... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hi Steve,Stupid question: any of your customers use this between the PS Audio Directstream DAC and the PS Memory Player transport? Good results? | |
Amps for KEF Blade 2 I heard the Blade Two's at the LA Audio Show with the Hegel H360 and it was surprisingly good. A $6k retail integrated driving a speaker of this magnitude may indicate the load is not all that difficult; just a guess on my belhalf. I'm sure there ... |
