NSMT or Zu?
Terry London loved the model 50s...and they have a 30 day return.... But...part of the consideration should be when the day comes that your are ready to try something else, how easy will they resell and what percentage of the price you paid will ... 
Florida Audio Expo 2022
If you look at the exhibitor list, it’s smaller than the prior 2 years… probably not a surprise. My guess is the turnout will be down some but still decent overall.    Hopefully they do not allow the rooms to get overly crowded.   
CLASS D MONO AMPS buy ATMASPHERE MUSIC SYSTEMS
I’m confused… is the implication from the comments above that Ralph’s new GanFet class d could be easily mistaken as a tube amp with a great bottom end?  
Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4
this nice little calculator will allow you to get a ballpark idea of the volume you can achieve with various wattage. https://myhometheater.homestead.com/splcalculator.html I would think that your single ended tube amp will give you a really nic... 
Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4
Based on your room  and seating position and having subs that you could cross at40hz… the Sapphires would do what you want and more… but they really do need 3-400 hours of break in… and at least 45” from the front wall and 2’ from the side walls. ... 
Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4
If you listen at 80 db you will need a sub or two for the thump. If you listen a 95 db you will probably need room treatments to tame the room. We need more info to provide good feedback…. room size, room construction and furnishings, source and a... 
Totally overwhelmed (speakers under $5k)
The raven Celeste’s are really good… and so is anything Salk.    https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649806872-salk-sound-song-3a-pair/    
Placement of Single Subwoofer Affecting Sound of Main Speakers
One other possibility in those locations is to move the sub up off the floor a foot or two and see what happens. Also, if you don’t have a room measuring system, try this: if you have a tv in your listening room that can connect to your audio sy... 
How much “suspension of disbelief do you need?”
For some, the goal is to get as close to realism as possible… for others, it’s not that important. To each his own… it’s about enjoying the sound, unless you enjoy obsessing about continuous  tweaking.   
Calling out spatial audio m3 sapphire owners!
I don’t think it’s the “tweeters” in the X or the M series that are the long break in culprets ( probably less than 100 hours for them).  Its getting those pro audio woofers loosened up. But when it happens and everything is singing together it’s ... 
Volti Vittora with Sub & Amp Crossover - Thoughts?
Beautiful woodwork 😀. Wishing you thousands of goosebump moments.   
Calling out spatial audio m3 sapphire owners!
If you go over to Audio Circle you will quickly learn that these speakers take 500 hours before you really know what they will sound like… so any review right out of the box is meaningless.    I spent 6 hours over 2 days listening to them through... 
Buy Back Old or Move On?
This would be an interesting option....I've heard the 2170 and it is a great sounding amplifier...and that is without turning the room perfect feature on...and like Coda, they hold their resale value. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649807204... 
Speaker shootout question -- do you position the same or differently, depending?
Ideally the speakers should be compared in their optimal sounding position assuming this is a position you are willing to live with.    In my case, the system/speakers reside within the main living space and therefore have to sound good in the sp... 
Paypal Changes for 2022
So, in that rare case like selling an oppo 205 we can say “buyer to pay shipping, PayPal fees and estimated income tax due”.
