Vinyl playback - lack of bass?
I have Simaudio 740p balanced into Simaudio 760a into Daedalus speakers. My analog is VPI prime, AT 760 SLC into Ayre P-5xe balanced. My digital is Marantz SACD 30n se into pre se. I have a Line Magnetic LM-515 CD player that I run balanced into m...

G2the2nd that is a good idea. One that I have not tried. I may have found my weekend plans. Thank you.

I already own two great subs. Rythmik FV-15HP. I have them set around 28hz, and turned down to accent. I am a bass head, but don’t want loud thumping. I like the bass to augment. I have felt, for awhile, selling the Simaudio and picking up a BAT p...

I have looked into VAC. Beautiful. Great sound. I really want to continue running full balance. I think I know the answer to my question. BAT VK-53se or BAT VK-90 with Pass Labs X250.8 or better yet, CODA #16 amp. Just lurking and fishing for peop...

I don’t have formal room treatment. Carpet floors. Sofa and overstuffed chair. Plants in corners. Took many days of speaker movement , measuring and toe in, toe out to get where it sounds good but lifeless. I don’t want to bash. But I believe now ...

Thank you ghdprentce. That is exactly my impression. I was trying to say without say. I didn’t want to bash any brand. I was fishing for information or opinions on BAT preamp or Pass Labs X250.8 vs Simaudio 760a.  my ideal would be BAT VK-90 or VK... 
Lawrence Audio speakers?

I sit 10-11’ from speakers. Room is about 16’ x 22’ with left side open to kitchen and dining room. Speakers are about 9 1/2’ apart.  I am wondering if Simaudio is too overly neutral. Is this possible?? My preference is listening around 65db. I wa... 
a 3 way design speaker with the ESS Heil type sound
Thanks again everyone.  I think tomic601 and decooney are on to it. Extended, detailed bass, but with mid bass slam. Beautiful dipole fast and accurate highs. 3 way with HEIL. I never thought of a high current amp. I was thinking tube preamp to ta...

Wow. I appreciate every single response. Thank you all! Some truly great ideas, and beautiful speakers. I love having my eyes opened. I knew of Qualio Audio. I have been interested in those. I knew of the Monitor Audio Platinum PL-300 series. Hear...

Daedalus Speakers with tubes or quality class A solid state. Monitor Audio Platinum with solid state. Magnepan 20’s  really depends on your like/dislike of certain speaker qualities.  horns? silk dome? metal tweeters? electrostatic?  
Are REL the most Musical Subs?
In 2 channel music listening, subs should just be an extension of main speakers. They extend lower frequencies and add bass dynamic punch. Find a sub that sounds close to the mains. Klipsch subs are boomy. I think sealed in the music listening, or...
