Luxman L505u . . . why not? Bongofury/Byegolly,May I know how does the Luxman L-505f compare to the LFD Zero LEIII? Does the Luxman have similar transparency, openness and airiness in the mids and highs compared to the LFD? Does the Luxman sound warmer, leaner or almost simi... | |

Harbeth - Compact 7 ES-2 used OR P3-ESR new ? Concur with Chashas1. Most important is trust your instincts. I don't think you would go wrong with the P3ESR. This new design features the first 5" Radial driver from the smallest box in the Harbeth line which deviates from the older P3's and is ... | |

Harbeth SHL5 vs 40.1 You would definitely get more bass with the 40.1 if the position of the speakers remains almost similar as the SHL5 in the room. Try getting the speakers out from the front wall more. You can refer to Pdreher's setup in his system page. Another fr... | |
The most hilarious ad ever on Audiogon? 11-25-09: Factenlooks like a radiatorI once relocated my Plinius SA-100 amp to the living and placed it on the floor(speakers and source in another room). One of my cousins thought the Plinius was a microwave oven. Good heavens he didn't attempt t... | |
New Rega Elicit Integrated - Opinions Hi Filmoor, Thanks for the input on phonostage. Just to update, I have pitted another outboard phonostage with the onboard MC phono of my Elicit. I have to agree with you that the built-in phonostage of the Rega is a pretty good unit on its own. A... | |

Harbeth SHL5 vs 40.1 Wonder what happened to Markus' 40.1. Extravaganza, it has got a lot to do with the amp. After comparing my Rega Elicit side-by-side with the Leben CS600 in driving the SHL5, the Rega was confirmed as a warm amp and slightly shut-in in the mids an... | |
Audio Research CD 8 This line from Puiutu62 sums it up - in my mind the CD7,8 players is on years of light better like HDXAlthough I have a feeling he meant to write the CD7,8 players are light years better than the HDX. I have listened to the CD7 and yes, it does so... | |
Luxman L505u . . . why not? Thanks for the insight Bongofury. I listened to the CS600 driving the Harbeth M40.1 and Fleetwood Mac sounded amazingly good. The Leben doesn't quite excel on some musical material with punchy bass and dynamics though. May I ask if your Luxman had... | |
Monitors For Near Field Low Volume Listening The Harbeth P3ESR is very nice but above your budget. A friend of mine who owns the 40.1 got the P3ESR for his 4th system replacing his Totem Model 1. Very nice and musical small box that will excel in a nearfield setup in a small room. Maybe the ... | |
Audio Research LS-16 Mk2 vs LS-17 preamp One man's meat is another man's poison. I have owned the LS16Mk1 and find it to be a decent piece, not spectacular. It does sound superior to four other line stages that I have owned, but then these line stages are just crap in comparison. | |
Luxman L505u . . . why not? Byegolly, May I ask how did the LFD compare to the Leben CS300? I have heard the LFD and the CS600 but both in separate systems. The LFD has the dynamics and bass slam while the CS600 made the highs and midrange sound beguiling with its tube magic... | |
Harbeth SHL5 vs 40.1 Littlehobbits, Whilst waiting for Marcus' assessment on the SHL5 vs 40.1, I have listened to all 40.1, SHL5, C7ES3, M30 and P3ESR. The SHL5, C7ES3 and M30 were auditioned in one system while the 40.1 and P3ESR were listened to in another setup usi... |
