| Which DAC as a preamp? IME, Class D really benefits from a Class A input stage....solid state or valve. Unless you like that lean analytical sound. Many do. Good luck. | |
| Best sounding "budget" integrated amp for Vandersteen 2C. Rega Mira 3 is an excellent budget integrated. | |
| Tekton DI Monitors Terry, sorry but this is a reviewer pet peeve of mine. Mentioning that a speaker outperforms speakers costing more than 3 to 4 times its price....but then failing to name those mystery speakers. In the review, you make a comparison to the pint siz... | |
| Tekton DI Monitors Mr. Erik, wouldn’t the Ulfberht solve the issues you mention due to the much lower crossover point? 200hz vs 1000hz? | |
| Small Bedroom Tube Amp musical paradise mp-301 ampMP-S1 MK2 Bookshelf speakers Both punch far above their price....but do you really want hot tubes around a child 👶🏻? | |
| Devore Orangutan O/96 Resale Value Looks like 7k for a local sale. http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649442959-devore-orangutan-o96/Closer to 8k if you can ship them. | |

Kit speakers are a better idea than full blown DIY, but they are almost impossible to sell for a decent price and the cabinet finish quality is almost always inferior. Salk Sound and Joseph Audio are basically assembled kit speakers, but done prof... | |
| Thinking of Kef Blade 2 to replace Revel Salon 2 The Blade 2 is crossed over to the side woofers at 320hz. This eliminates the point source and must create an ambiance effect with the reflections. Interesting design. | |
| What makes a speaker sound great at low volume? No crossover. Tube amp directly driving the woofer... | |
| Two small RELs or One Larger Sub 2 for music (better response). 1 big one for home theater (better special effects). | |
| Teton monitors from Wavetouch Audio - A Must Hear Are these using the Dayton Audio AMT? | |
| Seal a ported sub? I believe the biggest obstacle to the traditional 2-channel crowd embracing subwoofers has been the reluctance on the part of makers of 2-channel electronics to offer some of the basic functionality that's been found even in $500 home-theater AVRs... |
