55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey
75” at 10 feet for me with audio running 5.2.2, sitting on sectional recliner in bonus room. TV flanked with KEF R11’s. Went from 55-65-75” in that room over the 28 years. Somewhat space constrained for bigger. Picture in profile.  65” in family r...

@audphile1  Interesting you recommend the v1.  KEF recommends at least 60% of 300w for the R11’s… so at least 180w. In talking to their support, they wanted 200w.  Is there some advantage to the V1?

@audphile1  Thank you for your recommendation, but integrated doesn’t solve my space issue. I think I have a resolution… remove a section from my L shaped sectional & install another rack there.  Question, I assume you have the Coda #8. It lo...

@mm1tt77 Thanks, will do. Do you think the BHK & AHB2 will not pair well if I go that route?

@ozzy62  Thanks, I agree, my Rogue is not my weakest link, just attracted to the PS audio price / features. What component would you address first? @audioman58  44 years of marriage. Could work, but she is very practical. I even tried once to co...

Sorry HP (headphone) Amp.  I mentioned the amp & turntable in my post. Somewhat surprised at the phono stage. To?  
Focal Celestee
@soix  Finally received the focal clears. They are outstanding and significantly superior to the Celeste’s  The sound is clear, concise and well balanced… interesting how they sound very much like my R11’s. Could not be happier with them. Now for...

I am 72 & have hearing loss & tinnitus. I do wear hearing aids, but can clearly hear every major & minor change I have made to my system. So, I agree that the OP maybe should start with a gearing test & potentially hearing aids, bu...

Another thought… you didn’t mention streaming. If you are currently not streaming, I highly recommend it… access to the entire world of music… and great sound, all from your couch. You would need a lower end DAC (Topping or others) a streamer and ...

I have the Marantz CD6007 paired with a Chord Qutest DAC & am still not happy with my CD sound. It is infinitely better than using the internal Marantz DAC, but doesn’t compare to streaming or vinyl. So while a DAC upgrade is a definite improv...
