| Monitor Audio Platnium II Plutos,I prefer PL500 to the Sopra and Utopias that I listened to. I can’t recall the Utopias that I heard, but they were between 30K - 50K. I prefer speakers that to my ears are neutral or on the slightly dark side of neutral and that’s why I lov... | |
| Monitor Audio Platnium II I’ve listened to the Sopra 2s, Utopia line, and I own PL500 IIs. I submit they’re different in the way they present details. The Focals remind me of Wilsons, were the sound comes at you; consequently they appear to be more dynamic. The PL500s have... | |
| Monitor Audio Platnium II I should have added that I had do order a new spike and thread. It took a little longer than I expected, but I'm glad Monitor Audio took care of me. | |
| Monitor Audio Platnium II After owning the Monitor Audio PL500 II's for a while, I finally spiked them yesterday. What a difference a spike makes! In my room, there is more air and it's easier to place instruments/singers in the sound stage. So, why did it take so long to ... | |
| Monitor Audio Audiotroy,I had the Gold C350 and now the PLC350 series 1 in my current set-up. Both are based on old technology. On certain movies, the differences between the Gold C350 and my PL500 II fronts were obvious. The differences have all but disappeare... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! I'm trying to get a hold of a pair of Bel Canto Ref 600s to compare to my Jeff Rowland 625 S2. May be time for a change. I'm curious to hear if they mate well with the Corus preamp. | |
| Center Channel I purchased a Marantz AV 7702 mkII and order the AT523NC 3-channel Amplifier. | |
| Matching surround speakers I just went through something similar. I purchased Dynaudio Contour C20s to go in a 5.1 system with Monitor Audio Platinum 500 II’s as my fronts and a Monitor Audio Gold C350 center channel. I wanted a better center channel, so I decided to sell t... | |
| Center Channel auxinput,Thanks for the suggestion. IJust purchased a ATI 1803 and I’m looking for a used or demo discontinued Marantz AV preamp. | |
| Center Channel I use a Jeff Rowland 625 S2 amp and the HT bypass on my Jeff Rowland Corus preamp. Any suggestions on a AVR or AV separates below 5K? | |
| Center Channel I understand now why so many suggested I should get the PLC350. I don't want to play the better game, but although it's the series 1, I now know what seamless means between the fronts and center. The Gold C350 brought attention to itself. The onl... | |
| Center Channel Already wondering if there is a "significant" difference between series I and II. The good news I can upgrade the series I to the II's. | |
| Center Channel I almost purchased the series II but I couldn't get over paying 5K for the center channel. | |
| Center Channel auxinput,after talking to Monitor Audio and considering the price difference between the series 1 and 2, I purchased the PLC350 from TMR Audio and should have it on Monday. I already have the Gold series one and everyone that I talked said, the PL... | |
| Paradigm Speakers I haven’t purchased anything from audiotroy, but I have talked to him. He’s knowledgeable and comes across as being very nice on the phone. I don’t have a problem with him; because he doesn’t hide that he’s a dealer. There are a couple of people t... |
