Merlins VSM placement question What are you placement measurement in your 12x18? Same size as my room. | |
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Thanks George. That is pretty much what Roger Modjeski (Music Reference / RAM Labs) said and "I'll make you a preamp with a buffer, but you don't need it and it will sound better without it". Now Roger is a guy I pay attention to, he is an electri... | |
Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 I would expect the XA-100.5 to be "better" than the XA60.5 with the WP Sasha, that amp/speaker combo is better suited to the needs of the WP. But, as Onhwy61 points out, listening is worth 10,000 threads on the topic (now if you can only get rid o... | |
Looking for a compact speaker w/ some low end kick Totem would be hard to beat for what you are looking for, but you'll need plenty of watts. | |
Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 Some Pass X.5 owners will have to pipe in here, but for some reason I think the X.5 series might very well be more dynamic than the XA.5 series, but that you will lose some midrange liquidity moving from XA to X - not sure if that is a matter of p... | |
Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 "I was always told all speakers like wattages, the higher the better."I do think all speakers need enough watts to perform well, the quantity varies with the speaker, room, music, and loudenss preferences. I also know folks like VTL will suggest y... | |
Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 Though I did not say it before, I should have added that IMHO the XA60.5 will sound as good, if not better than the XA100.5 IF it provides enough power to drive your speakers to the volume levels you want, and in the case of your speakers, that wo... | |
Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 With your speakers I would not expect much of a difference going from the XA-60.5 to the 100.5, it just doesn't seem like power (a fairly marginal difference here) is the issue, not with your speakers and your room. Did you ask Pass Labs? | |
Amps in the same class as Pass XA.5 series I would say Ayre and Symphonic Line are worthy SS competitors to Pass. I'm not sure I am comfortable with the phrase "amp du jour" used to describe any Pass amp, as I think all his work merits and receives credit far beyond the temporary enthusias... | |
Music Reference RM-300 MK II Mono ... Has one ever been sold? | |
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? George, obviously you could have made a buffered version of the Lightspeed, what are the pros and cons to that approach. What are your thoughts on buffering? Go Spain!! | |
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Anthony, I've read the threads about The Truth preamp and it does seem to employ a similar "volume control" as the LSA (photo cell versus optocoupler, not sure if that makes any audible difference)along with input and output buffers. When I spoke ... | |
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? So we wait Clipsal for the system context for you B1/LSA "shootout". Also for Anthony's assessment of The Truth preamp, which seems to be a hybrid between some of the desing principles of the B1 and the LSA. Other passive comments (Goldpoint, BENT... | |
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I noticed that too. Odd. | |
Best Integrated, period. All Jadis Os are 40 watt/ch - no? |
