| What time do you wear? Snofun, throw a Rolex quartz up against your Areospace and see who is more accurate. Also, lets take an oyster perpetual date submariner and your areospace and meet back here in 35 years. We'll see who's is still running. I'll betcha my rolex will... | |
| I don't know where else to post this...so, Check your local stereo shop. I know that mine carries a light for just such an occasion. If you have no shop near you, try a pro audio store (guitar center), or website. I know that I used those types of lights the most in pro audio situations. | |
| Preamp to Integrated amp hookup My feeling is that even with efficient speakers, you may still want the power of the Passion to give you dynamics you are used to. Have you had a chance to audition the new speakers with solid state gear? | |
| Preamp to Integrated amp hookup I think that the recomendation of a tubed power amp is a good one. You will still have the best of both worlds. Pick one that has a good resale value, so that you could dump it if need be. Better yet, just hang on to the passion and try it with th... | |
| Slow upgrade from integrated - pre or power first? Power amp first. That will give you the ability to bi-amplify should you choose. There really is not a right answer, you have to decide which is better for you. If you are buying used, it may be which piece comes up for sale at the best price. | |
| Review: Daedalus DA-1 Speaker Dodge, I follow the dealer portion about Resopnse Audio. I guess the question is how do they compare to the other speakers you have listed. For example, you have the Audio Physic Virgo listed, which I have owned. Are they in the same arena, or sam... | |
| Review: Daedalus DA-1 Speaker So I'm a little confused. You talk about the company like they have made great acheivements, but then when you talk about the sound, it seems as though you aren't thrilled with it. Did I miss something? | |
| Stradivari Homage & Linn Komri: Priciest Speakers? Oops, my mistake. The Dali's are not 120K a pair. Not sure of their price at this time. | |
| Is There any Truly "High End" Integrated Amp? I have had the opportunity to hear the KW 500, Jeff Rowland Concentra II, and Mark Levinson 383. All very good pieces, depending on what speakers they drive. I know that VAC makes one for around 22K. Supposedly quite good, although I have not hear... | |
| Stradivari Homage & Linn Komri: Priciest Speakers? I haven't heard them, but I can assure you they are not even close to the most expensive speakers on the market. Pipe Dreams: 120K a pairJM Labs Grande Utopia: 80K a pairDali Megaline: 120K a pairVon Schweikert VR11: 120K a pairThose are just off ... | |
| Starting From Scratch - What would you do? How much do you want to spend, and what do you listen to? With those questions answered, you may get a little bit of advice. Try the A5 integrated with the Sonus Fabers Cremona auditors. | |
| Rotel RA-02 or Audio Refinement Complete ? I have to disagree with Pabelson on this one. Given my experience with Rotel (albeit, not that particualar model) I would choose the audio refinement even though it's older. I do agree that age doesn't play a role. In my opinion, the audio refinem... | |
| Rotel RA-02 or Audio Refinement Complete ? I haven't heard the Rotel, but can vouch for the Audio Refinement, as I've owned it four times, and still regret selling it.. | |
| Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews No magazine can review every piece of high end gear made. It is simply not possible. Jependleton is right, they only review the gear that is sent to them. | |
| Help me shorten my list... Bombaywalla,First, the speaker in question here is the Signature 805, although you listed the entire nautilus range, the two are not remotely similar. Second, B&W may not be your cup of tea, but the newer "S" and "D" series are not the same br... |
