| Great systems in butt-ugly rooms I'm with Tvad - who cares what the room looks like. However, placing mega expensive great gear in ridiculously small spaces or shoved in a corner with no acoustic treatments whatsoever and listening chair up against a wall does seem a bit of a was... | |
| Ultra high resolution Joey: It should be the "World's Most Deadly Joke" sketch. Heheh Nah - the most deadly "dead" joke sketch is this one....and now back to regular programming! (Sorry Chris I just found your initial question that does not even mention which amps you... | |

| Studio/Performance Amps for High-End Systems? EMMLabs is used by as James Guthrie (Pink Floyd sound engineer).Here is a list EMM Labs UsersI agree about Peavy and others you mention - these are high power but low quality stuff and have a "PA" sound. | |
| midrange forwardness So why would the Soundlab sound relatively louder in the treble with a solid state amplifier? It won't.It will give you more bass (where impedance rises) - so if anemic bass is your problem then a tube will help. If you want more midrange then a ... | |
| Best used floorstanding / full range around $1000 Energy Veritas 2.8 used is up there in terms of good sound and good value. |
