| What amplifier for Harbeth HL-5? Pdreher, I hope you will get the Skylan stands soon and have the M40.1's properly set up before carrying out a proper evaluation on their sonic performance and actual capabilities. I might have been too critical on the bass performance of the SHL-... | |
| What amplifier for Harbeth HL-5? After almost 3 weeks getting accustomed to the SHL-5 with the speakers almost completely run-in, I begin to appreciate the finer qualities of the Harbeth after prolonged listening sessions. This may have been repeated many times before, but in the... | |

| What amplifier for Harbeth HL-5? I have been using an ARC LS-16 pre and Plinius SA-100MkIII amp to drive the SHL-5 since I bought the speakers last month and am extremely pleased with the results. Recently I was informed that some exotic integrateds like the LFD Zero MkIII and La... | |
| LFD Integrated Zero MK III Jaybo, thanks for your advice. In fact, I will definitely be keeping the Plinius/ARC. If I ever get any of these exotic integrateds it will be an additional piece. | |
| LFD Integrated Zero MK III Does anybody own a Plinius amp prior to trying the LFD Zero Mk3 amp? I am wondering whether the LFD integrated would be a significant improvement to my Plinius and ARC combination. I'm currently looking at some good high-end integrated as an alter... | |

| Would diffusion help in this space Diffusion could help your sound if placed on the wall behind your chair. Although I doubt it, it might even help on the side walls as well. Diffusion on side walls will help in soundstaging and depth. However, it will depend on how close your spea... | |
| height to hand absorption foam panels My room is almost similar to yours. You need to experiment with the distance between speakers as some speakers sound better closer together(away from side walls) while some speakers sound better further apart(close to side walls). My current speak... | |
| Cremona M worth it? Sonus Fabers are nice speakers which give a warm and colored sound. Most folks who like this laidback, warm, liquid and glowing sound will adore the speakers. I have owned Grand Pianos and have experience with the Cremona line and Extrema. In shor... | |
| What matters most in speaker design? I have waited for a few responses before deciding to post one here. No doubt all points are equally important, especially A, B and C but the more complex part was in the crossover implementation. The speaker designer will most likely spend most of... | |

Mrtennis, first you said it's a silly question to ask due to the fact that it is impossible to evaluate the sound of a particular cable when listening to a system. Secondly you questioned about the posting of this seemingly petty issue. Firstly, p... |
