| Last Audition - Blown Away By A Lottery System I’m using Focal Sopra 2 speakers with a Simaudio 700i Integrated Amp and CD player with Discovery Cables. It’s a great combination. | |
| The secret to a great amplifier... Just put one in my cable box and vacuum cleaner. Picture on TV looked great but WOW the vacuum cleaner sucks much better. | |
| Tweaks you got rid of because they were not effective (enough)? Mitch, let me know the proper direction 🙏 | |
| Tweaks you got rid of because they were not effective (enough)? Expensive Fuses 😏 and Cable Lifters 👎 | |
| Speaker recommendations for Simaudio Moon 700i V2 I’ve never heard the Kanta speakers. If you like to experiment with cables (I don’t) let me know what matches the Focal + 700i sound. I’ve had these Discovery Cables for years and never tried anything else. I’m using modestly priced SR Python Powe... | |
| Speaker recommendations for Simaudio Moon 700i V2 I’ve used the 700i with my Sopra No2 for the last few years. Previously I had B&W and Focal 1028be2 speakers. In my opinion the 700i sounds the best with the Focal sound. It’s a great amp and sounds great on the Sopra series. I use Balanced Di... | |
| Who puts their speakers right up against the back wall and why? The Snell Type A2 I had years ago sounded really nice with 4”-6” space from a really solid wall. A buddy had earlier Snell TypeA speakers without any rear vent or drivers and used them almost against the wall. | |

| Speaker recommendations for Simaudio Moon 700i V2 I’ve had several Focal Speakers that I’ve used with a Simaudio 700i. Currently I’m using the Sopra #2 with my 700i. It’s about as perfect a match for Focal as you can get without going broke. Yes, the 700i is fairly expensive but it’s so smooth an... | |
| All-in-one integrated, 10-15K range, class A/B only Simaudio 700i | |
| Caveat about the Cable Company return policy I’ve also found them difficult to nearly impossible to deal with. I’ve stopped dealing with them. | |
| Looking for straight talk on Focal Sopra No 2 speakers Taking those ugly shiny Tweeter Grills off should be on the first page of the quick setup guide. ....I could go on and on about how they ring like a bell from a fingernail tap, but it’s easier to just take them off. Nicer looking too !!! | |
| Sopra 2 soundstage height I've had my Sopra 2's for several years now using a Simaudio 700i amplifier and Simaudio CD Player. They've improved quite a bit after a few hundred hours of play time. Recently, I've tried to get them dialed-in better to my room which is a Town... | |
| Great Customer Service From Simaudio If you’re referring to the Florida Dealer, last I heard they were still open, but Costa told me they aren’t a Simaudio Moon Dealer anymore. | |
| Great Customer Service From Simaudio I’ve had similar great experiences with Costa and Costa. Several years ago, I purchased a new Neo 260D CD transport. I already had a Bryston DAC which I thought might be better than the $1000 upgrade board. When I received the unit from a Florida ... |
