| Harbeth & VAC combo I have used a VAC Sigma 160i with the Harbeth Super HL5+ and it was a very solid match. I've also used Naim, Sugden and other ss amps with Harbeth with limited success. None had the magic that the VAC did. A year ago, I attended AXPONA and visi... | |
| Search for miracle integrated The Vinnie Rossi LIO is a no brainer for several reasons:- It’s the best integrated I’ve ever heard and it doesn’t need expensive power cords as it’s "off the grid".- It’s 25wpc aren’t your typical power rating.....it seems to be much more robust.... | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? weebeesdad-I found the synergy to be better with the Proacs vs the Omegas. I think the Omegas do better with SET amps, maybe because the SET amps produce more distortion and the Omegas are so clear. | |
| Your favorite one-man band! I've seen Tommy Emmanuel live and own everyone of his albums.....amazing talent! | |
| Need Suggestions for speakers up to $15K new/used ProAc D48Rs should also be on your list. | |
| What is going on? No-one buys good stuff priced right. There have been several interesting answers above and I'd like to offer some more.....We are living in a time when even relatively "inexpensive" gear has gotten really good sounding. If you've been in this hobby for any length of time, you start ... | |
| Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time? Johnny- that has been my experience (with break in) and one of the reasons I started this thread.....to see if anyone else noticed a difference after a long break in period. | |
| ProAc sound with SS vs tubes I know I'm a little late to this thread, but I wanted to throw in my 2 cents worth. I owned the D20r's and experienced the same issue with the bass using both tube and ss amps. The midrange and imaging are amazing, but I was able to move up to t... | |
| Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time? Zavato--Excellent points and thank you for your input. | |
| Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time? Thanks again tooblue for the feedback on the comfort issue....much appreciated! | |
| Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time? Yikes! I guess disinfecting them before use would be advisable...... | |
| Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time? All good points tooblue. I get that people purchase them and still listen to their main rig 99% of the time, but I've also read that the Audeze phones are heavy and bulky. I'm not picking on Audeze, but until I can get to try a pair personally, ... | |
| What has your audiophile experience taught you about yourself? That there is too much gear and not enough money! | |
| How Good Are Omega High Efficiency Speakers? The Omegas (with the Alnico driver) are one of the best single driver speaker on the market. In fact, the Super Alnico monitor bested a pair of Harbeth Super HL5 pluses and several other well regarded speakers at a fraction of the price. I agree... | |
| Please recommend a $1500 SS or Hybrid integrated to pair with Silverline 17.5 monitors stuartk-I actually own the Elex-R and would never describe it's midrange or overall sonic signature as "lean" or bright. That may be the case with the Elicit-R, but not the Elex-R. I've also owned a couple of Creek integrateds in the past and ag... |
