dynaudio confidence 5 versus contour S5.4 I have owned C5 numerous times, I bought both new and used but sold them all at the end. It's one of the few speakers that I truly loved and wanted to love forever. It's not perfect, but it does many things so well you can live with the short comi... | |
How to determine Preamp "Power"? VTL 5.5 vs BAT SE have not owned BAT or VTL, but have owned some ARC and SF L3SE in the past.

When did Musical Fidelity start making stuff in... Agree with Shadorne, you don't hear Taiwan food mixing toxic chemical like Chinese, neither will you hear Taiwan electronic products failing prematurely due to corner cutting.I will not buy Chinese audio gears.

Re-terminate Pure Note Paragon Stringreen, thanks for the offer. I have Anti-Cable speaker cables and they are not the easiest cable to work with due to their stiffness. I also notice Anti-Cable shrinks the soundstage a bit and reduces the air around each instrument when compar... | |
Re-terminate Pure Note Paragon thanks for the info. they don't make anything longer than 3.5 meter now and I need 5+ meter from my pre to power. not sure why they limit themselves to 3.5 meter and why they would not help customers re-terminate, I am sure it can be done even at ... | |
Anyone ever tried 2x100Watt Bi-Amp Vs 200 Watt agree with Kr4. Depending on what you want to achieve, if you are trying to increase SPL then you need to feed it more power. If you are after better sound, vertical bi-amp might give you that. | |
Speaker Dimple Be very careful with hair dryer method.I had to remove a dome driver from Dynaudio in the past because the driver is glued on the cabinet. If silk dome is heated up too much, it will deform. Looking from side, you will not see a perfectly round ci... |
