When did AudiogoN become a Showcase for The Music Room?
TMR is a good company. I bought from them twice and the products were fairly priced and as described. No complaints about that.   However, they do flood the classifieds.  I posted something for sale a while back. I waited until a Friday afternoon ... 
Golden Ear or Elac?
@mets1p...…………………..Buckner was an embarrassment that day and should not have been playing.  Clemens over pitched too many fastballs and Calvin Shiraldi was too inexperienced  to be the closer in such an BIG game.  I didn't sleep for a week after t... 
Golden Ear or Elac?
@hifiman5 …………………………………Yes seriously. I bought it from Ocean State Audio which sold Krell, Aragon, Vandersteen, Proac, Well Tempered, etc. It was a 2 way floorstanding speaker with a 7 or 8 inch woofer and a dome tweeter. Never could get it to sou... 
Golden Ear or Elac?
@mets1p...……………………………The post specifically asks about Elac and Golden Ear. I don’t see Proac mentioned anywhere. I owned Proac about 20 years ago. The words slow, thick and British Sound comes to mind. No thank you!  BTW, Red Sox rule.  Best recor... 
Need Help with my Proceed AMP3
You would have to replace the switch. 
Golden Ear or Elac?
The References are definitely worth the extra money.  Bass is much more articulate, the speakers can play much louder without strain, midbass is better due to the 2 6' midbass drivers and overall sound is much more relaxed.  Dynamic range is much ... 
Golden Ear or Elac?
I am biased to GE as I own both the Triton References and the Triton Ones.  It has gotten me off the speaker merry go round. I ave had 6 other pairs of speakers over the past 5 years.  These are the “keepers”. 
Plinius Hiato vs MA9000 vs Hegel H360 (powerful integrated amps under 10k with 200 watts)
I have an older McIntosh MA6600 Integrated with 200wpc and the famous output transformers. My GE Triton Ones really sing with this amp.   It bested a Rogue Cronus Magnum and Parasound Halo Integrated.

@dznutz...……………………………2 different threads, the exact same post.  Trying to sell your speakers.  We have a place for that called "The Classifieds."  You can purchase an ad for $4.00  for 30 days.  Kindly do that if you haven't already. 
Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday!
There is a guy on Audio Asylum in the Digital section who goes by the name of Toothpaste that owns one. From his threads, He is in love with it. I think this one may be a winner. Good luck with the new player.  I love the thrill of the anticipatio...

LOUNDSPEAKER FOR $10,000.00 PER PAIR
GE Triton Reference. There is a pair selling on Audiogon, brand new for $6500.00. It’s a steal at that price. 
mcintosh preamp for 5.1
@caphill ...........i must be be in the minority in that i much prefer the lush sound of McIntosh.  It may not be the last word in accuracy, but both my McIntosh systems are very well balanced and perform the way my ears like.   Personally, I like...
