| Whole reference system was stolen, need budget friendly integrated. Help Please! I like the Hegel integrateds, I have an older h360, but heard the h390 drive a pair of Dali epicon 8’s compared to a hifi rose that I don’t know what model, but the Hegel clearly handled the Dali nicely. The dealer had the MF6 i si,idk that he sai... | |
| Macintosch 8950 or parasound a21 I had the A21 power amp driving my revel salon1 speakers and it was beautiful. I took a peek under the hood and couldn’t believe how luxurious it looked for the price! That said, with the salons the a21 added some audible upper bass thickness that... | |
| A review of Dynaudio C2 vs KEF Blade 2 The Blades are expensive enough to justify auditioning some different source components. I've found a combination that's not quite as expensive as the speakers, yet audibly different enough and better in areas important to me to validate the upgra... | |
| KEF Blade 2 Meta I'm using +30 year old kimber 4tc so probably not the one to ask, but I have brought several different lines of nordost flat wire home and couldn't hear an audible improvement. I would wait til the speakers were setup and decide if any further twe... | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh One of the incentives the dealer offered me was full trade up value for my purchase. Said it was a mac thing. Something to look forward to | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh With McIntosh being roon certified I wonder how much more it would have cost to add full mqa? There’s a lot of albums I’ll pull up on qobuz with most of the songs unavailable and tidal will offer the complete album so without getting into a mqa vs... | |
| Legacy Aeris vs V System TBH i just went back there and couldn't find the thread I was looking for. | |
| Comparing One System to Another - A + B Wpc don’t tell the whole story. Consider most of the time were using a single watt or less, but the storage capacity will decide how dynamic the speakers sound. On some speakers most amps will sound the same, but some speakers can suck an amp dry.... | |
| Advice or experience with shipping speakers using freight companies Freightcenter. Com | |
| KEF's meta material gimmick? I wouldn’t be surprised to find out meta material is cheaper and easier to implement than the previous solution. I think the reason ls50 owners hear a bigger difference than blade owners is because the previous ls50 didn’t address the tweeter back... | |
| Legacy Aeris vs V System There’s a guy on audio shark forum that knows Legacy speakers and that’s where I suggest you start. They have a sub forum for legacy. | |
| 8-10k budget suggestions please Congratulations on the big step to krell! I'm always turned off when someone slams one brand then follows up with recommendations of what they have. The early b&w was voiced in that more traditional British sound that needed proper componen... | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh Thanks for the quick reply, right now everything’s new and I’m stoked. | |
| McIntosh Preamps Bump, my c49 comes with the da1 and I’m going to enjoy it until some current owners can tell me the difference. I’m not from the bits is bits camp but since the highest rez I can stream is 24/192 and the module isn’t going anywhere why rush? Talk ... | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh Those of you who have the DA2 did you upgrade from the da1? I ask because my dealer is offering the da2 upgrade, but with all my digital sources being redbook cd or a max of 24/192 streaming. I would like to know if your impressions are of A clear... |
