| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Thanks, Finsup! ;-) | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Gpowered -- it's true, you've been a champion from day one. ;-) | |
| Joseph Audio Pulsar? LOL! Congrats on the upgrade! The Perspectives are a lot of fun. I'm still trying to figure out a way to afford the Pearl 2s. Not having much luck so far. ;-) | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Appreciate the feedback. The writeup was the longest I've done yet. ;-) They're really nice speakers, I will admit that freely, and I had a lot of fun reviewing them! | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Not sure this'll work, but I've pulled a bit more together:http://wp.me/p1ae3a-q9another way to do it would be to jump directly to http://parttimeaudiophile.com | |
| SS amp for Merlin VSMs? I thought the Luxman 590aII with Cardas GR on the VSM-MXR with Master BAM and Master RCs to be way too smooth. Tonally, that amp favors the mid-low end, not the mid-high end, like a Pass or First Watt, neither of which I was able to try with the M... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore 8wpc should be more than enough for dynamic headroom issues with a 98dB sensitive speaker. With big, wideband drivers like this, though, damping might be more of a factor than sheer watts. Just a thought.Oh, and I like that Manley Stingray quite a... | |
| SS amp for Merlin VSMs? IME, the Luxman Class A/B amps are a lot more linear than the Class A amps, which tend to be rather smooth, which is exactly NOT the thing to do to a Merlin and adding Cardas cables into that mix is a hot mess. I like the Mac integrateds quite a b... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Detail is a bit of a two-edged sword, if you ask me. Too much and suddenly that's all you're hearing. I think this is what Srajan means when he uses the term "pixelated". That said, I'm sure the new SEAS drivers he's using for the Lore S, and the ... | |
| SS amp for Merlin VSMs? If you're still interested in trying out a great amp on the Merlins, try a Luxman L-505u. Outstanding. | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 I have 3.7s (6" narrower and 6" shorter) in a room with a 13' front wall and an 7.5' ceiling. The back wall is 40', of course, so I'm able to pull them a good 5' from the front wall with no issues. I think the sound is amazing.And I'm still consid... | |
| REVEL Salon2s - What Amp is needed? Subs needed? I was going to say "no subs, unless they're for home theater", but I guess it depends on how much bass is too much? If your answer is "never", add some subs. Two is good, three is better. Integration is going to be a problem, though, without some ... | |
| Efficient speakers with high powered ss amp? I think Zu or Tekton would be a good choice for solid state amps and both designs tend to really shine with some serious watts. | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. I'm not surprised that the GR didn't make the cut. I always found them to be too much of a good thing with Merlin. For me, the Clear's didn't help either. Again, too much of a good thing and there's only so warm and smooth you can get before you s... | |
