| Speaker distance geoffkait.....................................Sandy Gross from Golden Ear says the further apart the Triton series of speakers, the better. He recommended 11 feet apart to me. As it isn't practical in my room, 8 feet apart was the best I could a... | |
| Amp recommendation I would go with the highest power integrated you can find for 1500. I see a few used Hegels here which may be just the ticket. | |
| Musician vs. audiophile I wouldn't blow money on cables right now, they will make subtle differences but nothing life changing. | |
| Rega RP1 Turntable plays BACKWARDS...what to do ? if you bought it from a brick and morter store, bring it back. If you bought it from here, then I have no answer. | |
| Equalization I bought a used McIntosh Integrated amp that has bass and treble controls and I use them as needed. I feel no shame in saying this. | |
| Speaker distance Golden Ear Triton Reference. 8 feet apart, center to center. | |
| What are your favorite upright 4-5 shelve audio rack recommendations? I bought a Solid Steel 5 shelf audio rack for less than 500.00 | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Pat Travers Greatest Hits at this present time. Previously listened to Bob James "obsession" | |

| What music or equipment gifts did you get for Christmas this year? My wife gave me a Pink Floyd book "Their Mortal Remains", a Pink Floyd Coffee mug and a Pink Floyd T shirt. I also got a Nikon charger and a 128GB memory card for a camera I bought a few months ago. I am very happy. | |
| Vandersteen Treo CT Guys, I'm in on this. Let me know day and time and I'll be there (weather permitting). | |
| Dedicated Red Book CD player vs. "Universal" type players.... I had an 8005 in my system this Summer for 2 weeks, sold it and purchased a McIntosh. I didn't like the very small buttons on the player and the controls felt cheap to me. The sound was fine but I wanted a McIntosh to match the rest of the system. | |
| Goldenear Reference Vs. Focal Sopra #2.....pocket the $5k difference and don't look back? oddiofyl..................I bought the References based on my owning the Triton Ones and being totally satisfied with them. I never went to the store, I ordered them from Pete Freeman and stayed in touch with him until her personally delivered th... | |
| Goldenear Reference Vs. Focal Sopra #2.....pocket the $5k difference and don't look back? I have the References and Triton Ones. I also had the Triton twos at one time. You will find the References are about 45% more of the Triton Ones. More bass, better integrated midrange and better midbass. Treble is about the same but it will p... | |
| Any experience with Monoprice Monolith Amplifiers? If you want true high end on a beer budget, look at Odyssey. |
