| Adding a sub. - can i start with one? What sub? What controls did it have? It’s a PMC TLE1. To be fair, it’s not very good. | |
| Adding a sub. - can i start with one? I’ve heard Rel subs and they work great, but so do many other subwoofers. There’s nothing special or unique about Rel subs that I have heard. I’m sure fanboys will say they weren’t set up "right" or I’m deaf, or whatever, but that’s my story and ... | |
| Adding a sub. - can i start with one? In my limited experience, the best placement for a single sub is right in the middle between the speakers, not in one of the corners. I am aware that REL recommends the single sub to be placed in the corner of the room but I don’t follow. (I have ... | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ Thanks for the response @arafiq I wasn’t too surprised that the Supernait 3 sounded poor with the Harbeth SHL5+. It’s the same experience when I tried the Nait XS on the SHL5. Somehow the Naim integrateds are not very good in my book. Perhaps they... | |
| Adding a sub. - can i start with one? Two is better than one. One is better than none :) The best answer for the day 😆👍 | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ I have tried the speakers with Luxman 590AXII (owned), Hegel H390 (extended home audition), Kinki EX-M1(owned), Naim Supernait 3 (home audition), VTL IT-85 (owned), ARC GSi75 (owned), and Sim Audio Moon 340i (home audition). So hopefully you can ... | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ As good as the SHL5+ are, I do sometimes yearn for a wider and deeper soundstage with bigger bass (although I have a pair of REL S/510s to supplement). You will likely get that with modern speakers but it will need to be fairly high quality ... | |
| New Dynaudio Heritage Special..?..! I had the original Totem 1 for 20 years and these are the Totem 1’s times 10. I tried the Totem Model 1 in my system for a brief period many years ago and thought they are average, not spectacular. It's a fun and bouncy type of sound but not... | |
| Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark What model please. I thought all Dynaudio speakers are made or assembled in Denmark. So, some of the models are now assembled in China? | |
| Single REL T/9x vs S/510 in Small Room Thanks Arafiq. That’s good to know. It’s a single S510 for me unfortunately since I don’t have the space and funds for a second one. I’m sure 2 will be better but I’m very pleased with the performance of the single REL so far, no complaints | |
| Recommend me a Class A Integrated Amp (or sound like Class A amp) Luxman, Plinius, Sugden are all below Accuphase. I don’t like the sound of Pass equipment. It’s all subjective, and the speakers that are matched to the amp will play a part too. No right or wrong. From the list, I’ve owned Plinius Class A p... | |
| Single REL T/9x vs S/510 in Small Room Just to wrap things up. Settled with a single S510 and this thing blew the PMC sub out of the water. No joke. I did not try other subs but this REL is quality. Recommended. | |
| My last Integrated Amp: $5-10,000? but … if future speakers could be a demanding load, current-hungry, etc I would consider a Plinius. They are biased heavily into class A, but have a lot of power and current available, stable into low impedances. Plinius is less detailed and... | |
| Luxman vs Hegal I did not buy the Luxman because I later tried the new KRELL Duo XD lineup and preferred that to the warmer Luxman sound. It depends on the speakers. I wouldn’t label the Luxman L-509X as warm. If it sounds warm, then perhaps the speakers sound... | |
