| I Was Stunned @roxy54 I never guessed the rack between my speakers would have an impact. I had a stack of 4 pieces of gear on a pangea rack. I spent hours getting the speakers just right. I sold a couple of the pieces and set the remaining gear up on a small ... | |
| I want more bass… FWIW...A set of Rogue M-180s with a Rogue RP-7 pre could drive my Focal Kanta No.2s to some amazing floor shaking base. No subs, no tone control or equalization. | |
| DAC/Pre-Amp Advice @chuck_tamu I have the C-658 and have been using it for a year or so. I currently use it with a FirstWatt F6 as a streamer, DAC, phono stage (MM cart) and believe it to be the best bang for the buck out there. I also have the HDMI card installed... | |

| End Game Turntable suggestions @musicmatters1206 IMHO...there is a tremendous amount of great info here. As far as the 1601 goes I am extremely happy. I agree with all of the wonderful design concepts from the point of what they contribute to the ultimate sound of the vinyl. Ho... | |
| Luxman L590AX vs.590AXii So, I found an L-590AXll on this site for $5200. Only caveat is I will need a step down transformer. Now I am on the hunt for one worthy of this Luxman. Thanks and Merry Christmas to all that input their ideas and opinions. Or Happy Holidays if ... | |
| End Game Turntable suggestions I use a Thorens TD-1601 with an Ortofon Cadenza Blue running through a Hegel V-10. To me this sounds fantastic. The arm lifts and the unit shuts down after the album side is done. The other feature that is/was important to me is the easily adjusta... | |

| Luxman L590AX vs.590AXii @erik_squires @mesch I ordered a pair of Tekton DIs to run with my FirstWatt F6. The F6 did a decent job with my Focal Kanta No.2 speakers. I am confident the 590AXll will run the Focals very well. I was concerned about the 590AX. Perhaps my co... | |
| Luxman L590AX vs.590AXii @ryder - I did read this same response from you in another thread. Thanks for also posting here @builder3 - This is the info I was looking for. It appears the primary differences are the 8 vs 4 caps and output boards and PS. The attenuator and OD... | |
| Snowballs When in high school a girl lost an eye to a snow/ice ball. So, not so hilarious. As far as these "Gladiators in armor" goes, Orlando Brown, OL for the Browns, was hit in the eye with a ref's flag and it literally ruined his career. The flag has a ... | |
| Pure Class-A Amp under $2000 (USED) FWIW...there is a First Watt M2 available right now for $1850. It will work well with 6-ohm speakers. Your sensitivity at 88dB is lower than I would like but you will get decent sound as long as you don't expect to rock the house. I have an F6 con... |
