| Best amps for Totem hawks?? please help The best I ever heard the Hawks sound was with Totem's own amp. It's an ugly thing, shaped like a half-cylinder, and I want to say it cost around $5000, but it had a rich yet delicate sound. I also understand that it's a relatively rare amp.I hear... | |
| Budget Turntable Cerrot, that's interesting because your experience with the Technics vs Project is completely opposite of mine. I found the light Project arm to be difficult to match with cartridges that offered strong value, the arm was difficult to properly adj... | |
| Budget Turntable Cerrot, on what do you base your assertion that "that 'J' arm is way heavy and the direct drive is sooo noisey"? I had to actually at the (included) headshell weight to have an overall arm mass to match my Denon 103. And I've experienced none of t... | |
| Budget Turntable Cerrot, the KAB-modified Technics really are quite special. I've previously had a Music Hall MMF-5 and a Project RM-6B that the Technics trounces. (The chasm widens with the addition of a Denon DL-103 cartridge.) I had also borrowed a Nottingham H... | |
| Budget Turntable I second the KAB Technics route. Add a Denon cartridge and I think you'll find the sound competitive well above its price point.Michael | |
| Which Blue Ray player to buy ? Jpgsf,I'm assuming your model (cable or DSL) is also a switch/router. If so, there are a couple options:1) (Best) Hardwire an ethernet jack to the area where the player is to be located. I wired my entire house with ethernet jacks, and was able to... | |
| Which Blue Ray player to buy ? I purchased an LG BD-300 last fall and I've been thrilled with it. I have not compared the picture quality with other players, but it looks great to me. And I haven't tried using it for its audio capabilities. However, it has a feature that allows... | |
| Novice question whats the difference in A 20 ampere plug on a power cord has a horizontal neutral pin (the hot pin is the same as the 15A) that will only fit into a 20A outlet. It is not the same as the plug on a 15A cord. I would make sure that your amp and circuit/outlet are set up fo... | |
| Totem Arros and 40 watts. The Arro's will work well with 40-50 watts of tube amplifications. I like the Jolida 302b (around 50W) for a great bang for the buck synergy with the Arro's.I haven't heard a Cayin or TAD.Michael | |
| Looking for some 'grass Try anything by Alison Krauss & Union Station for great bluegrass/newgrass that is very well recorded.I also like Nickel Creek for that genre.Michael | |
| Totem Monitors for 200W Amp Robertbrown, I disagree about the Forests. In fact, I find them to be the least involving of Totem's lineup. If you need bass extension, then you can mate the Arro's or Hawk with a good sub and you're in for less money than you would be for the Fo... | |
| Totem Monitors for 200W Amp That's a reasonable-sized room, so you could get by with floorstanders, as well. What is your budget? Were you thinking of something like the Rainmakers or the Model One?I personally feel you're going about this backwards. I would find a speaker t... | |
| Von Schweikert VR2 vs. Totem Arro The VR2 is a little on the warmer side than the Arro, which has a leaner sound. You may need a sub with the Arro if you require deep bass extension.However, as mentioned above, the Arro images like no other speaker. It's holographic and life-like.... | |
| Why Can't I Get The Right Sound? Krell pre + PSB's Rich, a friend of mine whose opinions I trust said that the best pairing he's heard with the Gold's is an old Carver Lightspeed high-current amp. You should be able to get one at a reasonable price used. Just an option to consider.The Gold's can p... | |
| New Pre or Integrated for 2nd system, thoughts? I haven't heard it, but the Onkyo A-9555 (integrated) gets a lot of buzz, and new comes in under your $500 limit.It would be a stretch, but you might be able to find a Musical Fidelity A3cr integrated for near your price point.Michael |
