| Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why. +1 @Locknow +1 @Atmasphere Equilateral triangle concept is great, however try this ratio: distance between tweeters 1.2 times the distance from each tweeter to the ear in listening position. I love big soundstage and getting the speakers as wi... | |
| Great song by the Clash Fav Clash song? Definitely’The Magnificent Seven’. | |
| what are the best sounding Accuphase or Luxman amps/preamps? Actually I believe I had the C-2850 preamp | |
| what are the best sounding Accuphase or Luxman amps/preamps? I had that exact same Accuphase setup you are purchasing. It was good but not end game and sold it. | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. APL DSD-MR SE | |
| SET Lovers, what's the one solid state amp you love(d)? +1 Dartzeel and Vitus previous: Zanden 6000 (tube) Symphonic Line Kraft 300 (SS) current: Tenor HP150S (hybrid SS) | |
| Speaker recommendations wanted for Quicksilver M135 amplifiers If you ever decide to sell the M135 monos please let me know- thanks! | |
| Best value Set amp for under $1500 used is ok. I'll chime in very briefly, as Charles and I both run Coincident speakers. Charles- a local dealer friend lent me a very nice all piano black lacquer amp from Melody. It's a 2A3 integrated (uses 4 2A3's for output, and there is also a 101d DHT t... | |
| New Western Electric 91E 300B Tube Integrated Amp REVIEW ! It would be great if the only ones able to comment in this thread were those that have actually HEARD the WE91 amp... I did- in fact auditioned it- for an hour- and yes, it was well warmed up beforehand. The looks are controversial, but ease of ... | |
| Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing @noske- that’s a good question- one would think the criteria would be either quantitative (specs and build-related) or qualitative (sound quality of various parameters), or both. Not sure if that’s what you meant by your response | |
| Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing Is this thread confined to opinions on Atmasphere Class D only? I have owned the top Class D offerings from Nuprime and Merrill, and if Ralph's amps can hang with the performance of the Merrill 116's, well now that would be something special... | |
| New Coincident Frankenstein 300B Stereo Version @Charles- I completely agree with your last point from a purely theoretical standpoint. I live 10 minutes from Coincident, and have likely owned more models of Coincident speakers over the past 20 years then most on this forum. One of the best p... | |
| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend @verdantaudio- you should try and get some Aries Cerat product at some point. Build quality is insane. Even the Helene Dac had a fluidity that my previous Rockna and Tambaqui dacs couldn’t match. The Kassandra is a completely different level af... | |
| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend +1 @verdantaudio- spot on and one of the best thought provoking posts on digital I have read on this forum… An Accuphase dealer I know said the new $25k Dac 1000 is incredible, and low and behold I believe the architecture is based around an ESS S... | |
| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend **oops- pardon the spelling above- believe it is TAMBAQUI… |
