| MSB select II vs all dacs ? To me all the digital is very good at this point and allows one to enjoy music through digital. Everyone is different and their systems and preferences are different. Hard to generalize for me. My experience is that it is more individualistic d... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 Davey,You are 100% correct, it can be costly AND a big hassle if someone buys the wrong speaker for their situation , including budget, room interaction and their personal preferences.Your last paragraph sums up my sentiments and how I operate. Wi... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 The only point that I would make regarding my amp suggestions, is that I would say the same pertaining toYG, Wilson, Rockport etc and almost every dynamic/cabinet speaker. Not the same with horns or other higher efficiency speakers or course.So, i... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 I would not use any tube amps under say 90watts P/P. I would not use any SET, even a powerful 50 Watt SET amp.My Jadis 90 Watt PP I-88 integrated lights up the A5s in a fairly large space.I think a good quality 100 Watt SS or 90 Watt PP tube amp... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 Hi Jose,Thx. Cygnus are beautiful! All the best with them!!!Stay safe!Bob | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 Sorry for posting all of the videos in this post, but yesterday I had 3 people from this thread ask for more A5 videos. Rather than post the videos here if anyone is interested please go to https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Rhapsody.aud... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 Jose,Congrats on your Rockports? Which model, Atria IIs? Rockports ARE very natural sounding and beautifully made. Where did you hear the A5’s and the Rockports? I ask as there are not that many A5’s circulating around yet with Covid and dealers d... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 As long as I posted an A5 video, someone saw this video and asked if I would make some A5 videos with my Pilium Leonidas, 212 pound, 400 watts/4ohnm integrated amp. Just did these two quick A5 videos streaming Qobuz. All for someone showing some... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 gpgr4blu,Hi, no doubt about it many people would prefer Radios, Rockports, Joseph Audio etc. SO many super duper speakers available. At least everyone should be able to find something that "floats their boat" and allows them to enjoy music.Happy... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 If anyone is interested in "why" the A5’s are special and not just a bigger A3-The A5’s were the next speaker that was introduced by Magico after certain driver technologies became available in the development of the M9 Magico flagship. Alon/Magic... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 Ohlala, certainly you won’t find the A5 compelling if you haven’t heard them. Give them a listen when/if possible. It would be interesting to hear your first hand experience after you hear the A5’s. That’s if you choose to do of course.Btw, the A5... | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 The A5 video was also Qobuz streaming, which is a step down from our cd, vinyl or R2R sonics, but personally I’m a "streamer":) Also a cell phone video, so it's not close especially to the in-room experience. | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 Btw, this video is of the A5s, but I did not have my liquid sounding Pilium amps as I had sold my demos when I did the video. I was using fairly non-liquid sounding electronics with this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gq1oAeeLOrY | |
| Rockport Atria II or Magico A5 Hi Everyone,Actually Rhapsody has NEVER had Q7s in our shop OR any of the large Raidho speakers other than current smaller XT-5's. We had D3s but that was 5+ years ago now. We never had the larger Raidho D-4s or D5s. Must have been some other ... | |
| MSB select II vs all dacs ? I ALWAYS hear great things about the Schitt Yddrasil at $2499. I've never heard it and have now idea but even at it's price point it is worth investigating. I think the Yggy is more different than say the Rockna vs one being better than the other. |
