| recommendations for Paradigm Studio 20 V2 Why not use the 20's all the way around? If that is too much money, try the cheaper, but not lesser, paradigm mini monitor. | |
| How long to burn in Rotel rcd 1072? If you bought from a dealer, you may want to take it back and question them. I just recently picked up the same player and am so happy I can't believe it. I was sceptical of a Rotel player, and heard nothing but good about this one. The night I pl... | |
| Musical Fidelity A3 vs A3.2 Integrated? Steve, if I'm not mistaken, the A300 is actually 150 wpc. | |
| B&W 804 with ??? What about Classe? They seem to mate very well with B&W. Something about synergy with sister companies that you can't get elsewhere. Just something to think about. I think the CAP 151 would have enough power for your 804's. | |
| Amping JM Reynaud Twins II Audio Refinement Complete. The last one I bought I was able to pick up at 500 shipped. I think you would like the match. A similar sound to tubes, but with solid state power to back it up. | |
| Cambridge Audio, Rotel, Arcam-apples and oranges? I do know that I really never seriously considered any Rotel players until I heard the RCD 1072. It is one sweet player. I believe it does a better job than the Classe CDP .3 and also the Musical Fidelity A3. Atleast in my system. | |
| New vs Used when buying please share thoughts I'm pretty sure everyone hear is going to suggest audiogon as the place to buy used. I also think that most people here will suggest buying used instead of new. When you consider the fact that you can usually find a mint condition product for half... | |
| Please give me your 2 cents...budget 30-50k I'm not so sure the Parasound Halo gear belongs in your list. I love it, and own three of their pieces, but with 30-50 thousand to play with, I think you might be able to do a little bit better | |
| Integrated tube vs. solid state for Martin Logans I had the Aerius I speaker for a while and found that they did not sound that great with tubes. Granted, I wasn't using a super expensive integrated. It was an antique sound labs that retails for 1200. Peronsally, if you can afford it, I would def... | |
| Audio Physics Virgo owners Personally I would give them more power. I started with a 50 wpc integrated and have moved up to a 125 wpc (8 ohms) and it helped quite a bit. | |
| B&W Nautilus Update? I would imagine it is the entire series. I heard that they are trying to compete more with their signature line, especially since the new 700 series closely rivals the Nautilus line. (Not my opinion, just what I heard) | |
| Monitor or fullrange ? Green Mountain EuropaB&W CDM 1 SEParadigm Studio 20 V.3Monitor Audio Silver S1I believe any of these would do a fine job. | |
| Small diameter, flexible speaker cable under $200? Maybe Kimber 4TC? The 4 is about half the size of the 8TC and sounds pretty good. Many strands without large shielding make it fairly flexible in my experience. | |
| Ever gone from seperates to an integrated? Let's not forget that going to an integrated doesn't mean taking a loss in power, always. The best example is the Musical Fidelity Tri Vista. | |
| Good CD Player for UR Unico you might want to give the rega planet a listen. You might be surprised. Also, I think you can find the jupiter in your price range every now and again. |
