New speakers for a new start? What’s your budget? | |
What tube pre with Quicksilver V4 monos What pre are you using now, what specific improvements are you looking for, what’s your budget and are you looking for new or used? Nice speakers BTW! | |
Which preamp for Quicksilver mono amps? I am not looking for any sound improvement. I have not yet thought much about matching KT mono with QS preamp, but since QS preamp is relatively cheap ($1500) I wouldn’t bother. Just put the $1500 towards a real future upgrade like the Spatial... | |
Looking at these specific preamps give me your opinions Really depends on what sound characteristics you’re looking for. That said, I also have a fully modded DNA 0.5 and I’d do a trial of the Raven without a doubt, but that’s me. | |
Sonys faber Amati G5 You really need to share what sound characteristics you’re looking for and are most important to you, otherwise you’re just gonna get suggestions of what other people like that may or may not coincide with your tastes/goals. Also, are you looking... | |
Add a subwoofer? You obviously are not familiar with Cornwalls which are capable of prodigious output. They will swamp two 12" drivers. I many systems subwoofers do more harm than good. If the OP is a critical listener and continues along the path he is on he wil... | |
Speakers on top of subwoofer Then, according to this statement, you can conclude that the Wilsons can "never" be correct. Since the speakers are always connected to the subs and according to you, they shouldn’t be. @gdaddy1 No, and as with most things in audio it’s a comp... | |
Speakers on top of subwoofer Don't do this? Wilson is doing it wrong? @gdaddy1 You’re really missing the point in this case. The Harbeths were not designed to be placed on top of a sub, and the sub wasn’t designed to have a speaker placed on top of it whereas the Wilsons... | |
Add a subwoofer? To improve the sound quality you would need to add two 15” subs and a two way crossover. I disagree with this completely. You don’t need 15” subs as even 12” subs will be more than adequate in your situation, and using the adjustments on a goo... | |

Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC From the way it reads, not at the level of Merason @wig Where did you get that from? He only mentioned the LAiV Harmony and totaldac d1 in the review and no mention of the Merason that I saw. | |

Add a subwoofer? I was told that the Cornwall has huge bass and I’d need a very large sub to notice a difference. You were told wrong — the Cornwalls only go down to the mid 30Hz range, which is why you feel like you do about their bass capabilities. Especially... | |
Speakers on top of subwoofer Is mounting a speaker on top of a sub a bad idea? Yes. Putting speakers on a vibrating subwoofer is always a bad idea and especially so when you’re talking about very expensive speakers like those Harbeths. Subs can be very flexible in placem... | |
