| High end speakers at low volume @grislybutter nice! Amongst those the Lakmé and the Parker duo are aesthetically tolerated as far as WAF is concerned. | |
| Schiit Loki Max? @chuckie1970 Anyone can advise if the Loki max is actually superior to the Cello Palette? I’m pondering if getting Loki max plus preamp or an old Cello Palette. Many thanks. | |
| High end speakers at low volume @mijostyn im very tempted. The only doubt is that I had some very good preamps in mind, without tone control of course. Do you know how is the preamp section of the Anthem STR? I’ll use my external DAC. The STR is renowned to be a good amp. | |
| High end speakers at low volume @curiousjim thanks the Forte and Cornwall are not really my flavour. | |
| High end speakers at low volume @headphonedreams thanks I listened to the steinheim and while I liked them it wasn’t the same for my wife. Parker duo were on the list but I should travel hours to audition them. In one hour I’ll take her to see the TAD ME1 and hopefully she’ll li... | |
| High end speakers at low volume @mijostyn uhm… not sure about their performance as preamp which is the most important element in the chain. What’s wrong with the Loki Max? | |
| High end speakers at low volume @mijostyn @musicaddict im fine investing in qualitative eq. im not convinced by components which are also preamp as they will affect the sound. As preamp I had in mind Viva and CAT or VAC as power amp. And definitely I’d like to keep my dac separa... | |

| High end speakers at low volume I think I’ll go with project audio Duet15 or Odeon Helix. | |
| High end speakers at low volume @joey54 great to hear so! Unfortunately I can’t find anyone selling Vandersteen in France. | |
| High end speakers at low volume @pscar glad to hear your feedback. First one to consider Sabrina X good at low volume perhaps ! | |
| High end speakers at low volume @jackjohnson316 thanks I’ll check the Buchardt. Problem with Zu is that there’s no dealer in Europe and I should buy them without listening. Also I didn’t understand if working well with classic rock music. | |
| High end speakers at low volume @kokakolia lovely speakers! Don’t know exactly the pros and cons of the single driver speakers. Mind you I listen to rock music too. | |
| High end speakers at low volume Thanks all. It seems there are several people in here not believing in the high efficiency as a solution for better SQ at low volume, rather giving importance to tone control to enhance those frequencies not well audible at low volume. I’ve read a... | |
| Okto DAC 8 Stereo (Shout-out) I have owned the dac8 stereo and I was truly amazed. Previously I had mytek Brooklyn bridge and Merason Frerot. The Okto was another level. Big and wide soundstage, clean, pure, transparent and detailed yet not analytical nor cold. I have sold it ... |
