| Diffusion versus absorption behind speakers? I asked the same question for my soundlab m2's and was advised by rives audio to use diffusion over absorption;I started playing and found both seem to work very well and even hanging rug art behind the panels seemed effective;not really sure what... | |
| Tube-amp for Magnepan? I run audiovalve challanger 180 monoblocks on my soundlab m2's;the M2's present a pretty tough load so it may be a amp you might want to check out for your Maggies. | |
| Need advice about hi-end amp/pre-amp I agree with Jaybo;get your speakers first, then amp(s) and preamp last. | |
| Gryphon Antileon Signature technical problems What about jeff roland models 6,8t or 9t? I have the 6 monos driving usher rw723's and soundlab m2's when I feel like moving them;they are very tube like;controlled bass and the midrange/high freq ranges almost equal my audio valve challanger 180 ... | |
| Amp suggestions needed I would consider those b&k m200 sonata monoblocks with mods;should drive without a problem and be on the warm side;this has been by experience driving merlin 4b+'s with these amps. | |
| First Post, Looking to buy Amp& Pre, $7,000 I would consider the Threshold T800D amp that is listed and a ARC ls16mk2 pre amp. | |

| Go with a tube preamp or not? John-thanks I am interested in that el34 tube as well;any types you would recommend?I have never heard a el34 tube based amp.I have rolled some kt88's with the 6550's that came with the amp so far;in my cary slam 100's I perferred kt88's but in th... | |

| Go with a tube preamp or not? Thanks John for some good feedback;I saw you listed the 12ax7 and 12au7;my amps have 6189 and 12ax7 in them;would your comments also apply when these are used in the amps?I have been a tube owner for several years but never really played with roll... | |

| equating class A to class AB SS amps? Mark I think the deciding factor should be your ears;if you can bring the 2 Luxman units home with the speakers to see how they interact in your listening room;let them warm up for a set period of time then sit down and enjoy the decision making p... | |
| most articulate speaker Auralone-In my system I also listen to choir with organ and feel my soundlab m2's do quite a good job on this source material.I also had dunlavy scIII's and with the same source material the m2's are at least equal to if not better than the dunlav... | |
