| 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... | |
| Please recommend a $1500 SS or Hybrid integrated to pair with Silverline 17.5 monitors The Rega Elex-R is a wonderful ss integrated that would have plenty of power, is slightly on the warm side of neutral and a used one would fit into your budget. | |
| Downsizing Setup Looking for Small 2 Way speakers. Selling my Perfect Storm Vapor Audio. You would be hard pressed to do better than a pair of Omega Super Alnico monitors. One of the best monitors I've heard. | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? After a few days of breaking in and critical listening, here a few thoughts. Amazing soundstage. Clear. Organic. Micro dynamics in spades. Life-like.My system: Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP integrated, PS Audio DirectStream DAC, PS Audio Perf... | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? Lancelock- thank you for your feedback. I decided to pull the trigger on the microzotl and the zotl40 and am in the process of breaking them in. I'll give my 2cents worth after some listening time has been logged. | |
| Anyone in Chicagoland interested in A-B listening our respectively owned speakers? jb- I live in Sycamore (next to Dekalb) and would be open to having you stop out and compare. Let me know if you'd be open to that.Scott | |
| Proac D48R Thanks jperry....what a nice system! If someone were thinking of getting a pair of Proacs, what would be the best way to go....D30R or D48R? I wonder what the sonic differences would be? Also, the D48R is the newer version of the D40R correct? | |
| Proac D48R Just curious as to room size limitations for the D48r? It doesn’t look like a huge speaker, but I wonder if they will work well in a medium size room. Any insight would be appreciated. | |
| Proac D48R Check into the Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP. It is an absolutely killer amp..... (bested my VAC Sigma 160i) and within your price range. | |
| Omega, Harbeth, JM Reynaud, ad Skylan joejoe, I use two different amps, both with great results. The EAR 869 SET and an Octave V110 integrated. | |
| Omega, Harbeth, JM Reynaud, ad Skylan The Super Alnico monitor can play anything and put out an amazing amount of great bass.....much more than you would ever expect. I too have replaced Harbeths with Omegas and will never look back. Louis is one of the very best to work with. My n... | |
| Best speakers for $3000 Proac D20R's are a fantastic speaker as well as Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Baby Grand SE's. I think you would like either of these better than the Zu's. | |
| Marten Duke 2 anyone own or heard these? I owned the Duke 2's for a short while when I was comparing them to Harbeth HL5's and JM Reynaud Bliss Silvers. My preference in order was:1) JM Reynaud2) Marten3) HarbethThe Bliss Silvers sounded more natural to me vs the other two. Duke 2 is not... | |
| Harbeth vs JM Reynaud Taters- I know there is much marketing of the Harbeths in the US vs JM Reynaud. Amherst Audio is the distributor for JMR in the US, but Bob doesn't advertise/market the speakers like Fidelis AV does, hence the much lower price. If you haven't chec... |
