| Critique my system... I would say it is the AR preamp, just on face value of your list. It could be the room, so don't rule that out.But I owned the LS3 in the mid 90s. At first listen, it's detail is captivating. But for the long haul, it is indeed on the bright side.... | |
| Has anyone heard the Legacy Aeris? "My current favorites are the Sony SS speakers. They are 10k versus $30k for the Legacies. Both have perfect tonal range across the spectrum. You can buy a lot of records or CDs with the 20k you will pocket."I think you need to check your math. Th... | |
| Speaker Upgrade Help Please I guess before we go down this road any further, you should tell us what wifey WILL and WILL NOT allow. What criteria prevented Vandersteens from passing muster?Shakey | |
| Wilson Alexia vs Raidho D3 "The one dealer said, "the Vivid's are bright-boom-bright-boom". After an hour of listening that's all you hear."And this guy sells the speakers? Sad, just sad I tell ya...Shakey | |

| Challenge: Best $2K-ish floorstander I had the Aerial 7B once. I think it lasted about one day in my system, and was sold in less than a week.Shakey | |

| adagios vs veenas Yes I did.Shakey | |
| Review Almarro 318B Any good reason why you might put a tube amplifier review in the analog forum? Think about future searches for "Almarro". They probably won't search a forum famous for discussions of turntables and cartridges.Shakey | |
