| Speaker upgrade @gammajo Thanks for your detailed info the sound quality of VR55. This helps.@rodge827 @larryi I have not heard Charney audio and I will not deviate my path now. I am not close to NY/NJ and without listening to them, it is hard to get them, especi... | |
| Speaker upgrade @gammajo Can you tell me more about your experience with them. What other speakers did you compare them too. Very few people own them and hard to get first hand information other than hear say. Your input will be very helpful. | |
| Speaker upgrade @soix and @goose Agree with you guys. I have kept JA pearls in my list and like to hear them, when I get a chance. Regarding Boenicke, I listened to them while I was in NY (I think it was W8SE). For that size, it was unbelievable how large the sou... | |
| Speaker upgrade @erik_squires I have not done the high pass filters as you mentioned. I am not well educated or qualified in those skills. If it is something easy and makes a big difference, I am going to start learning about them.@bpoletti Just for sake of fun, ... | |
| Speaker upgrade @three_easy_paymentsIt’s strong opinion and yours only, thanks. I appreciate, if you don’t have any input on the speakers listed, not to mention others. @goldprintaudio Yes, I am thinking about Joseph audio pearls too. Hard to audition them. Have ... | |
| The problem with Magicos I have to appreciate the OPs attempt, but to what end ?. Unless, he can compare speaker A (with his suggestion) to speaker B (like Magico here) and explains everybody the difference, we can try to understand. He is not even mentioning any speaker ... | |
| The problem with Magicos Man!, every time I read dgarretson`s post, I crack up. It is a genius answer. Kenjit, I like your thinking and trying to see things "nobody" has thought of, but can you tell me in your experience, a good speaker that addressed this issue or have y... | |
| The problem with Magicos @dgarretson This is the best reply for questions like this. Please come up more like these analogies. Sometimes, “thinking outside the box will make things clear”. Jokes apart, correct me if I am wrong, is’nt this problem inherent with > 80% of... | |
| Coda 07X vs Backert Rhumba extreme vs VAC renaissance V Just to update. I hooked up VAC Renaissance mK V to AF instrument no.4 mk 2 feeding Aerial acoustics 7T and 2 REL S5/SHOs. Upstream is Luxman D-10 X fed by antipodes CX/S30. I have listened for many hours and tried almost all genres. I am very hap... | |
| Coda 07X vs Backert Rhumba extreme vs VAC renaissance V Thanks. Will keep posted on how the stock tubes sounds and go from there. | |
| Coda 07X vs Backert Rhumba extreme vs VAC renaissance V Thanks for all the input. I have heard only good things about vac. This will be my first jump into tubes. I will see how the stock tubes work and might try some others eventually. drrsutliff. What other tubes have you tried ? | |
| Coda 07X vs Backert Rhumba extreme vs VAC renaissance V Yes, I was a bit concerned about low input impedance of my amp, but again with 150-300 ohm output impedance of vac, the ratio of 25-50:1 was right were it needs to be and hence pulled the trigger. | |
| Coda 07X vs Backert Rhumba extreme vs VAC renaissance V I decided to go with VAC. I will be getting VAC Renaissance MK V and see how it sounds. Thanks everyone for input. | |
| Coda 07X vs Backert Rhumba extreme vs VAC renaissance V Yes. I saw those reviews. Any problem with impedance matching with your rhumba ? | |
| Integrated amp -- Pass Labs vs Luxman vs McIntosh Good luck. Let us know, which one you choose and your listening experience. |
