| $16K new/used speaker question? Now you wouldn't happen to be selling those speakers, by any chance? | |
| Audio research m300 Yes, I know, but with the ARC the power is the same from all taps, unlike the Krell, which doubles its rated output as impedance halves. | |
| Audio research m300 I used to own a pair of M300s. While they were excellent amplifiers (pretty neutral, though with the 6550 tubes they were a little dry/lean in terms of tonal balance), I don't think they will drive your Thiels any better than the Krell, and might... | |
| Audio Research SP9 MKII. Vs SP-14 Agree with Mofimadness, the SP14 is the better unit, IMHO--just a bit more refined. Now if you can find an SP-10 or 11 for around the same price, those are better still. | |
| Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce Well, I think the Wilsons will be a touch more clear and revealing than the Vandersteens, but not as much as with other Wilson speakers, as the Sophia 1s were, IMHO, Wilson's most forgiving speaker--they even sounded good with a decent receiver dr... | |
| Does Krell still convert KSA 250 into MDA monoblocks I'd suggest you call Krell and ask, as well as whether they bridge the amp to create the monoblock or do it another way. Given my recollection of the KSA 150 vs. the MDA 300s and the KSA 80 vs the KMA 160s, I would think that the amps are not bri... | |
| Wilson Audio Sophia 2 or Goldenear Triton 1 Glad to hear about your purchase, hope you continue to enjoy your speakers. I thought that the Rogue might sound good with them, it's a good quality amp and the Sophias let it shine through. | |
| Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce While I do like those Wilsons, I think the setup that you have now is really well-balanced, and might not sound much (if at all) better merely substituting the Wilsons. What is it about the Vandys that you don't like? | |
| Wilson Audio Sophia 2 or Goldenear Triton 1 The Sophias are one of the few Wilson speakers that are not particularly fussy about amplification, as I recall. You should note what you audition them with (maybe take your Rogue or Stratos with you?). | |
| Wilson Audio Sophia 2 or Goldenear Triton 1 Haven't heard the Tritons but have heard the Sophias, I think they are really a good choice for your musical tastes. A very musical and forgiving speaker, unlike earlier Wilson models like the Watt/Puppies. | |
| Speaker Isolation -- Experience with Townshend Seismic Isolation Podiums I believe I have the original versions of this product, which were then called speaker cradles (bought them a good number of years ago). I pretty much agree with you point for point, and on a suspended floor they are especially effective. I had ... | |
| ESOTERIC DV50S FUSES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE IS LOCATED? Agree with Peter, don't mess with the fuses. | |

| what houseold items House plants are indeed excellent room treatments, I used them for years in my living room system. | |
| VAC 160iSE integrated with NOLA speakers Kevin Hayes responded to my question by saying not at this time, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to ask every six months or so... you never know! |
