| Magico A3 to A5 Always a crapshoot when we can't get a home demo. If your dealer has ANY open box amp/pre/int's you can bring home to compare after the A5's are broke in it'll really help squash any doubt. | |
| Coda 16 vs. Pass Labs xa60.8 I know we all come on here and promote the latest product that created synergy within our own system...that said A few years ago I tried several products on the sane side of 'hi end' Parasound a21 with krell pre, peachtree nova 300, anthem 225i, a... | |
| T+A Amps and Preamps? I was really interested in the T&A HV line and was close to working a deal with a dealer to buy his demos for a much more reasonable price. At the end of the day I just couldn't justify the outlay for a product unheard and the only true way to... | |
| Disappointing On Mcintosh......help In the current market Mcintosh is a bargain. The Mc611’s really brought my KEF Blades to life | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k I demoed the persona's for over a year and it wasn't until I heard the Pathos Logos mk2 that I fell in love with the speakers. Now I have a pair of mac mc 611's driving a pair of kef blades. but if you can borrow a pathos logos mk 2 b4 moving on f... | |
| High end speakers at low volume Congrats on the TAD's! I thought I added my .02 on this thread, but. I was dissatisfied with low volume listening thru my Blades even though I still appreciated what they do at 90 db and above. I brought home a pair of 600 watt monoblocks to repla... | |
| KEF Reference 1 or LS60 I would hope the Ayre components are better than the electronics inside the ls60. Is the ls60 a digital speaker? I mean does it have an active xover? The 2 speakers appear to have different markets in mind. | |
| Pre-Meta KEF Reference 1 or LS50 Meta I thought the drivers in the Reference line were a couple steps above the ls50? | |
| Wilson Alexia V seating distance Speaker placement and seating distance ar really room dependant and manufacturer recommendations are starting guidelines but not the last word. Listen, tweak, repeat. | |
| Yamaha ns 5000 Regarding break in... I noticed music during the dat was much more difficult to enjoy than evening listening and eventually pulled out my trusty realistic analog DB meter to find ambient noise (in my basement) was nearly 20 db louder in the day 60... | |
| KEF owners, how are your speakers positioned? I don't notice a change in imaging as much as tonal balance, If I point the speakers directly at me the upper mids are too prominent. All my uniq speakers responded like that although the Blades are much smoother than previous versions. | |
| KEF owners, how are your speakers positioned? The R107/2 and R105/3 were about 12-16 " in from yhe corners, the blades have a full 3' ofd space around each of them, about 8' apart and listening seat from 8-11' away. A little toe in but I can still see the inside drivers. | |
| Gryphon Diablo vs. McIntosh C2700/MC611 Congrats, I'm using the Mc 611's with a c49 to drive my Kef Blades and I'm getting the best sound I've heard anywhere at any price. | |
| Vienna Acoustics 'The Music' maybe | |
| Worth upgrading from MC611 to MC901? What are you using for a pre? I'm driving my Mc611's with a c49 but haven't had them long enough for the shine to wear off yet, still sound AMAZING. When the time ultimately comes I think i'll keep the 611's and consider the c2700 or similar tube ... |
