| Sonos or Mac as Source? I cant answer but can say my Mac mini with Amarra Symphony with its room acoustic correction software is fabulous! I use my Esoteric K-01 as the DAC. | |
| Sonos or Mac as Source? Jkscherk. You need to get a monitor dummy plug from OWC as it will speed up screen sharing. Works great. | |
| AVA FET 600 I had the FET 600 driving my B&W 802s until I did a major system upgrade. It was a great match. Had been using ARC tubes before but felt AVA much better synergy. The speaker connectors are, however, very ackward. Beyond that great amp. | |
| Wilson Alexia 20x15 Room A new review of the Alexia was just published in Positive Feedback issue 76.My favorite comment was this "the ultimate goal at WA is to not build a speaker that obediently follows a frequency response profile; we want it to sound like real music.... | |
| Wilson Alexia 20x15 Room One last observation has to do with listener fatigue. When I first received my Alexias I found I had fatigue after long listening sessions. Then I pulled out my sound level meter and discovered the problem....way to many Dbs. These speakers play... | |
| Wilson Alexia 20x15 Room One of my favorite recordings is Rebecca Pidgeons Spanish Harlem from The Raven. Have heard it on many systems/speakers but I have never thought it sounded more beautiful than it does on my Alexias. Sweet and warm, and pure with no harshness o... | |
| Wilson Alexia 20x15 Room I always marvel when a person asks a specific question about a specific speaker folks chime in to offer opinions about other speakers! Its an interesting phenomena. Is this an example of cognitive dissonance? In any event one of the Alexias stren... | |
| Wilson Alexia 20x15 Room I own a pair of Wilson Alexias and absolutely love them. They will work extremely well in that size room. | |
| Esoteric K-01/K-03 Owners I finally bit the bullet and dove into the computer digital world with a new Mac Mini music server. For those who are considering this I can highly recommend it as a new front end system. My experience is this; I bought the new mac mini (Yosemite ... | |
| OSX Yosemite Upgrade and DAC Malfunction Had the same problem with my K-01 on HS-2. Works fine on HS-1. I presume a new driver update will come shortly? | |
| Which amps with B&W 800D's... Pass Labs or Classe? I recently purchased a pair of Classe CT-M600s. I love these amps. They run cool and sound great with my Wilson Alexias. These are simply a higher power version of the CA-M400s. Best amplification value in high end audio. | |
| Verity Owners...will Rienzi's do justice to bass ? Sounds like you had the answer to your question before it was asked. Good Luck I hope it works out. | |
| Verity Owners...will Rienzi's do justice to bass ? I had a pair of Parsifal Ovations for 6 years and while I did love the sound they did not do well a a large listening room (I had them in smaller room then tested in a larger room 16ÂX26Â)....the woofer is only 8Â and just cannot move enough ai... | |
| Is it the speakers? Great thread. I almost never by music anymore when the sound quality is not rated as very high. I then take the bad recordings of music that I love and put them on my iPod where they sound great again. | |
| Speakers that turn your analytical mind off? Bose. |
