| Kef and McIntosh I love it when someone comes on the forum asking a question and folk pop up trying to sell them something else without even addressing the question. I had the Kef R 105/3's with kube and found that 2nd gen uniq driver to be highly revealing and ne... | |
| Can you give me your speaker suggestions? I'm really surprised at the results you got from the Pathos logos mk2, it was the one integrated I heard to make the mids from my persona 7f sound natural? Goes to show how important component matching is. You built larger cabinets for your speake... | |
| How does one pick in this situation? I've brought so many passive speakers home to find they sound nothing like the demo, usually once home the bass is mia! Use Best Buy to listen to some speakers in your room and system just to get a feel for what to expect. Some speakers need insa... | |
| Boressen speakers I've been to a few demos Lars did and was floored by the presentation by the Raidho's and then Borrensen.s at axpona, but I've also heard the 02's maybe 03's not sure that a dealer put together and I was deeply unimpressed. saame can be said for a... | |
| Boressen speakers I don't find any value in the brand, they sound ok, but not special and looks are a personal choice. Borrensen brand will push Aavic electronics and their own cables and tbh are just a market to separate the wealthy from their money. | |
| Help! Is my new McIntosh MA12000 broken? unit should be dead silent, return it for inspection and don't accept any BS excuses. | |
| McIntosh MA12000 is it worth upgrading to. I'm new to mac moving from a hegel h590 to a c49 and pair of mc611's. How does the headroom compare on the model you have and the ma12000? What impressed me the most about my separates is how much better everything is at low volume, bass, soundsta... | |
| Krell K-300i vs. other integrated amps under 10k I've only had 1 krell product the kav 300il integrated and I loved it. The unit did run hot though and went in for service several times under warranty to get the amp repaired. Once the warranty was up and the amp baked itself again I used it as a... | |
| AXPONA — PS Audio The speakers have changed much since the first design on display at axpona b4 covid. A case of function follows form? | |
| Speaker recommendations :-) I love the Vienna acoustics beethovens. The Beethovens circa 2004 had limited spl, but managed to be some of the most involving speakers I've had and if available for a demo, worth it. | |
| Are the KEF Blade/Blade 2 Metas a Significant Upgrade from Blade? BUMP, After having a life evaluating health event I decided to spend some money on my system. I did have a buyer for my Blade 1 speakers, but realized there was nothing else out there I wanted to replace them with. I decided to try the Blades with... | |
| Real world Loudspeakers what does very good cost ? The Yamaha NS5000 looks like a sure thing, but take that cash on to the used market and a pair of kef blade 2's can be had for less. If high spl isn't important a pair of Maggies is probably the best sound for the money. The problem I've found whe... | |
| We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often My speakers are Kef Blade 1. When my 250/425 wpc amp drove them to realistic levels I thought I was golden, but as time passed and I found low volume listening was boring I decided to borrow a more beastly product and the Mc 611's are staying. I t... | |
| We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often @steve59 https://youtu.be/AhB8uL12gtk this may help... ... also don't confuse input sensitivity of an amplifier with its power output I watched the video, not sure PM did the job of explaining the difference between the quality of a Cambri... | |
| We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often This thread got seriously above my IQ this page, I've been able to play in waters previously too deep because my family took care of me in their passing and I was living within my means before that. Anyhow I learned the hard way about how dull and... |
