| Which would you pick between these 2 and why? Good choice. | |
| Do I need a power cable - if so what brand? I used to have a Ultimate Outlet and Hydra and experimented with different powercords. Then a buddy of mine let me use his RSA Jaco. One by one I plugged components into it. 1st the cd player, preamp, and then amp. Each time a noticable improvemen... | |
| plinius sa-102 or ayre v5-xe for woodmere 2's I ran a VK200 and VK5i for awhile. I really liked it and I KNOW the 500 is better. A friend of mine had one for awhile driving his Thiel 7.0's at 86db effiency. Sounded great. Another friend on here (Blindjim) had a 500/5i combo for awhile and rea... | |
| bat vk3ix OR bat vk32se PAIRING bat vk55 Oh is that all...lol. Must be nice to have what, $33K for amp and pre ;) | |
| plinius sa-102 or ayre v5-xe for woodmere 2's I meant to ask what is the sonic difference between the 100 and 102? I did have a FPB-200 in my system for about a week on loan. I really liked this amp. One the best SS amps I tried. Very open and airy with great bass. I am not sure what kind of ... | |
| plinius sa-102 or ayre v5-xe for woodmere 2's I used to own a Plinius SA-100 MK3 with my Tyler speakers. It is a very nice amp but I got bored with it. It became uninvolving over time. I have heard 2 Ayre amps but only one on my speakers. The V3 which I didn't like because it was too dull or ... | |
| bat vk3ix OR bat vk32se PAIRING bat vk55 What does he use? | |
| bat vk3ix OR bat vk32se PAIRING bat vk55 Call BAT and ask. They are very helpful.I read that review and I kind of feel like they do (believe it or not). If you want a combo that makes good music be happy with it and forget about it. If you think you might upgrade to a Vk75 or 75SE later ... | |
| bat vk3ix OR bat vk32se PAIRING bat vk55 I seriously doubt it. I borrowed a friends VK55 or should I say an extended loan (2 months). I paired it with a VK5i with NOS tubes. This combo was the most musical my system has ever been. I have never heard the VK3ix or 32SE but $3000 difference... | |

| Has anyone spent time with the Thiel 3.7? James63 opinion is right on. Thiel has a winner with the 3.7's. | |
| BAT VK-60, VK-55 or ???? Thank you guys for the recommendation. It looks to me the 60 would have better bass than the 55? It does have an extra transformer and a bigger amp to boot. I know the 55 was a room heater and I bet the 60 would put out more. Does the 60 suffer fr... | |
| Older Classe pieces really holding their prices... Yes you are right for the most part but some gear flatlines then appreciates like alot of older Levinson. Case in point, Bought a 27.5 amp a few years ago for $1700. Now they are going for more. Bought a 36 dac for $1100 and then a 3yrs later they... | |
| Has anyone spent time with the Thiel 3.7? A local friend of mine has a pair. He upgraded from the 2.4's. Another local friend has the 7.0's. The 3.7's sound very crisp and energetic without being bright. Bass is very nice and tight. He drives them with a Krell FPB-200. Personally I don't ... |
