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... | |

Has Anyone Criticized The Choice Of Your Cables? 04-22-09: Mrtennisit is also a fact that it is difficult to evaluate the contribution of cable to the overall sound of a stereo system. there are too many vriables.Hi Mrtennis,Try posting this in every threads in the cable forum. It would be inter... | |
Has Anyone Criticized The Choice Of Your Cables? 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... | |
sounstage too big bad thing I went the other way. I was in the verge of selling off my Plinius amp but the XLO Signature2 interconnect saved it. When I put the cable in, all the details, dynamics and soundstage come alive. Most importantly, it feels like I've added in a new ... | |
Are Harbeth S HL5's As Good As Reviewers Claim? Prior to listening to Harbeth speakers, I have also read that they are warm and laidback. After listening to the the SHL-5, I have to say these are extremely musical speakers that sound very neutral and coherent. There is something really special ... | |
Speaker Technology over the last 10 years i exchew cone speaker designs. i realize others like them. i just have a hard time fathoming why they are so popular, given their faults. i will never buy one .I've listened to a particular Martin Logan electrostatic speakers some time back and th... |
