| Cal Audio CL-15 vs Music Hall, Jolida, Carin Fog I had the CL-15 and thought it was a great player. I then upgraded to the Meridian 508.24. That was an even better player. I then upgraded to a MF Nu Vista 3D. That too was an even better player. Now I have a Esoteric DV-50, which of course is an ... | |
| Power cord for Plinius SA100 & 102 ? Of all the amps that I have used, the Plinius 8100 integrated has benefited the most from a power cord. I have liked the sound of the synergistic research a/c master coupler, analysis plus power oval, acoustic zen tsunami, the BMI shark, and the e... | |
| Best Intergrated Amp. Under 1k with "PRAT" If you are looking for "PRAT", I would suggest a Naim Integrated. Naim always is great with Pace and Rhythm and if you aren't going to listen too loud, a Nait 3 or 5 should be able to power the Maggies. Hope this helps. | |
| Best speakers for $500 or less If size is an issue, Anthony Gallo Micros. If size is not an issue than either the Triangle Titus or the Quad 11L's. | |
| JM Lab mini Utopia's and which sub I had the mini's for two years with a Velodyne HGS-10 and loved it, but I have heard better. For $800 dollars a sub, the HGS is a great bang for your buck, but if you are going to do HT and price is not a consideration, I would look for a used Sub... | |
| YBA Integre vs. YBA / Audio Refinement Complete I used to have the Complete integrated matched with the 5.3's. I sold my Complete and bought a used Plinius 8100, it's in a totally different league for only about 300-400 dollars more. More detail, soundstage, bass, palpability. Think of an audio... | |
| Which Amp will make the802N sing I think the Plinius SA-102 is great with N802's. Great Control and power, but at the same time extremely musicality as well. Good luck | |

| Amplifier Recommendation for B&W Nautilis 804 Go with a Plinius SA-100 used or if you can a Plinius SA-102, sound great with B&W's | |
| looking for an appropriate cd for my system A used Cary 303/100 is a great piece for right around 1000. It will beat the pants off every other CDP mentioned above with the exception of maybe the Sony. It's a great value and even has HDCD decoding. Good luck. | |
| N802 possible tweeter buzz I know with the N802, there is a cap thing that holds the tweeter in place during shipment. It is behind the midrange and tweeter. This might be the cause of the noise. If you already know what I am talking about and took care of it, no problem. I... | |
| Best bi-wire speaker cables under $1000 I would second the Acoustic Zen Hologram, it's the best cable at the price, good luck | |
| Which Amp for B&W N803 Try something like a Plinius SA-100 or 102. The plinius is a great match with the B&Ws. I have heard the 803s with a Plinius 102 and it sounded great. I feel the Plinius matches well with the B&Ws strengths and offsets some of the 803s wea... | |
| tube amp for b&w signature 805 Look into a plinius 8200, although this is a solid state integrated, it has a "tubey" sound. While I had the N805s, I deffinately felt that the Plinius was the best especially when wanting a more tubelike sound out of the speakers. Also, I would s... | |
| Need help choosing new speakers Tubes might add to the system as the Nautilus' are basically a monitor like speaker and output whatever signal you give them. The Levinson is a great amp, but has no emotion as well, it just outputs what you give it. You could either change out th... |
