| How much better is BAT VK-3ix than the VK-3i? I used Matsushita 6DJ8's in my 5i with good results. Do a search here and you will find they are good tubes and priced reasonably. I still have 4 of them. A friend of mine is using 4 of them to see if he likes them in his Audio Research preamp. I ... | |
| Someone familiar with older KSA Krell amps A friend of mine had the 100s driving his Thiel 3.7's. He then borrowed a 200s and preferred it because he immediately noticed more bass and overall a more balanced sound because of the extra power. He bought the 200s. | |
| How much better is BAT VK-3ix than the VK-3i? The 5i is a big step up from the 3i. I had a 5i and paired it with the VK55 for a few months. I loved this combo. I have never heard the 3ix but Stereophile did a review of the 3ix and 55 amp and loved the combo. Go to Stereophile and search. The ... | |
| How good is the BAT VK40? Coltrane1 I agree with you for the most part but I have listened to the VK40 at the same time I had a VK5i and preferred the 5i simply because it had MUCH better midrange and topend extension. The 40 was faster and tighter but did not have the mid... | |
| Sony XA5400ES vs XA9000ES Gandme I totally agree you. I think it is system matching because I have heard too many good things about its redbook performance. I also was talking to very experienced audiophile last night and that was the 1st thing he said. It wasn't mating up... | |
| Krell FPB and cast versions Thiels are revealing but the 7 series is not that "bright" Chazzbo. Krell is a great match for them. | |
| How good is the BAT VK40? Get a tube BAT pre ;) | |
| BAT Solid State Amplifiers No lean sound in BAT gear. Someones ears need checking if they said that...lol. | |
| Sony XA5400ES vs XA9000ES One more question? Has anyone compared the Sony's to a Raysonic 128 or Cary 306/200? | |
| Your definition of soundstage I think Jim hits the nail on the head especially in the last 3 paragraphs. | |
| Need to buy used integrated about 800 dollars A used YBA YA201, DT Integre or any Cayin integrated would be a nice choice. | |
| Sony XA5400ES vs XA9000ES Hmmmm...Looks like the teeter is swinging toward the 5400? | |
| Sony XA5400ES vs XA9000ES Thanks Ozzy for giving me your candid opinion I appreciate it. You are just offering what you heard in your system and it just surprised me thats all. You maybe right it just sounded good in my buddies system. He is going to let me borrow it fairl... | |
| Sony XA5400ES vs XA9000ES Funny you say that Ozzy because I always thought the Redbook was rated very high. Its Stereophile Class A rated and not only for Redbook. I know its a matter of choice but I was not aware the redbook was not up to par. From what I have heard its q... | |
