| Should I get a new amp? Without looking up your speakers here is my opinion on the bass . My 926's only had 2 little 7inch drivers for the bass . I ran them with a 200w SS amp (300w@4ohms) in a 13ft.X26ft. room setup 11ft. from my listening position firing down the long ... | |
| Should I get a new amp? I have owned JM Labs , 926's . While they will sound good with SS . Tubes will sound better in my opinion .I started out , like you , with SS and kept looking for satisfaction . I didn't find it until I tried tubes . I am now all tubes and enjoyin... | |
| "Breathing" of the air I have heard this on two systems .The best example was while I was demoing some speaker and amp combo's . I then went into the dealers "premier" room with one of the same CD's . That is when I heard it . I asked the dealer what made the difference... | |
| Best $500 speakers for Home theater only? Check the Axiom line from Canada . Not good for music but pretty nice for HT . They used to have a 30 day buy and try . If you don't like them send them back for a full refund . You can also buy blems and used from their site .The blems are pretty... | |
| Self bias tube integrated or power amp suggestions Some say that they are and some say that they are not !My A-88T was not !Incidently , I had a heck of a time trying to get the biasing procedure and specs from the N.A. distributor , they were not included in the user manual . Several emails went ... | |
| Vienna Acoustics sounded terrible at Magnolia I think that some of you are missing out on the actual benefits of BB . You can buy , try and return if you don't like them . How many highend stores will allow you to try something in your system at home , for more than a couple of days , with no... | |
| Out of these 4 speakers, which 2 should I try out? I would not consider the Axiom's .While I have not heard that particular model I did own the M-60 floorstanders . They are not well suited to music , especially the type that you prefer due to it's inherent bad quality recordings . Anything but th... | |
| Cable tv music analogue or digital? My box is the same... it requires a processor to decode the signal before going to the pre . I looked , in vane , for a standalone - quality convertor/Dac . I learned to live with the DAC in the cable box ! It's better than some of the crappy CD's... | |
| Best internet radio Hey guys...I think that he is looking for a piece of hardware ! Not a website . | |
| Next Step Advice I would suggest more power from a warmer sounding (colored)amp for the front three speakers which all should be increased in size and run as large . I have the Rotel 1095 and would consider this as the minimum for power , for your room , but not v... | |

| Tube Amp Recommendation for a solid state guy I have said it before but here goes. If you want to see what tubes do , then do tubes !By that I mean go all of the way and see what is there . If you go part way you will only see part of what tubes do .Who knows you may find what you are looking... | |
| good speaker with Sound stage behind???? I had that kind of soundstage with JM Labs Electra 926's .High deep and wide . But I also could get some staging right in front of me , as you complain about , and some behind me ! All with the same set up .What I am eluding to is the fact that , ... | |
| Being given 2 custom systems but what to ask for? Dweller makes sense here , especially if time is a concern .Barring a professional consultant , you might try going around to different local highend stores and ask questions while demoing some equipment . If you find a sales rep that is patient ,... |
