| Merlin TSM comparisons Will try the small move, might dial them in even more than they are now. How do TSM and VSM placement recommedations differ? I assume you look for a bit more bass reinforcement with the TSMs. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? So it seems that true to the source (or at least to the output from the CD/DAC with no impedance mismatch)has to be the standard and that any alteration caused by even the most expensive and sophisticated active preamps is an alteration having not... | |
| Merlin TSM comparisons So, I measured. The tweeter is 5"6" from the rear wall. The tweeters are 6' apart and 2'6" from the side wall. And I my head is 9'6" from the plane of the speakers. And it sounds great. Not exactly "Cardas" but close:). By the way, you were right ... | |
| Merlin TSM comparisons On short wall, 2 open windows in center, bass traps in rear corners, and acoustic panels to the sides in front of speakers. Currently have them 5 feet from back wall and 6 feet apart center to center, or 2 1/2' tweeter center to side walls - toed ... | |
| Merlin TSM comparisons Bobby, in an 18x11 size room, what placement would you recommend for the TSM, VSM - same for both? | |
| Audio Research Preamp Experts? Actually find the physical scale of the Ref 2 and 3s to be to large, I prefer the format of the smaller unit. The LS26 since to be well regarded, the other competitor in my mind is the LS25 MKI as a viable option. Opinion on the 6H30 linestages se... | |
| Audio Research Preamp Experts? Well, I spent alot of time reading up on all the previous ARC pres. I;ve concluded I will focus on the LS series, though the SP-11 sounds like it would be a great unit, but too much gear and too many tubes given I don't have any need for phono. So... | |
| Audio Research Reference 3 vs Modwright LS 36.5? Amen.... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Sounds like the Bolero Test by Arthur Salvatore, which also concludes that if ANY active linestage sounds better than a passive there is an impedance mismatch and the system NEEDS a an active stage. In his view, there is no better connection betwe... | |
| Audio Electronic Supply AES/Cary AE3 MkII preamp Yes, one wonders why preamps don't as a matter of course have mutiple gain settings, or at least one or two outputs with low gain for digital sources. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I enjoyed reading that, well said, and certainly the issue of what gear will connect the listener to the music is as varied as there are people. As far as soundstaging is concerned, what I do notice with the LSA is that the apparent soundstage see... | |
| Audio Research Preamp Experts? Any thoughts as to the LS15 and where it ranks in the ARC lineage? Expecially compared to the LS2s. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I meant to say not very dimensional as recorded. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Robtn, obviously I could not agree with you more. It was interesting to hear you say, "I mentioned to Mr. Harley that when I read Jonathan Valin saying he misses the "bloom" and "spaciousness" of tubes, with ANY piece of equipment, I cringe. If I ... | |
| Audio Electronic Supply AES/Cary AE3 MkII preamp Any more input on difference between the DJH and the MKII, both still available through Upscale. I am looking to use with two tube amps (Music Ref MRM10 and 9s) with 1v sensitivity and 100kohm input impedance. |
