| Can a pair of BAT Rex II (Tube) mono block amplifiers make the Martin Logan Neoliths sing? "BAT) Rex II mono blocks at 160w be powerful enough to make the Martin Logan Neoliths (30w - 1300w) sing?" Good luck getting out of your seat , once there set up, Heard them thru a couple different amps including near equal power tube amps. C... | |
| New Analog Technology??? Shouldn't we be holding our breath for the Tekton process? | |
| The Music at AXPONA 2022 Reason you bring a flash drive/LP's. How many times did you hear Eagles HC? The rooms that don't honor requests, I give them a backhanded compliment on their "great system.' | |
| Upgrading from Primaluna Good gear vs expectations vs small room and that buildout on the right side. You've got challenges. Don't expect demo room performance. I would try the 1/3 concept. It's free and most certainly, Sopras WILL sound more "airy" 4-5' out. Your seat... | |
| How to keep albums playing at the same volume Keep fresh batteries in the remote with a belt holster. You'll also sharpen reflexes. | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 "have 10-15 years left of good hearing, so I may as well spend my money on something I can enjoy for a while. . . " We're only here once. drbond- Hopefully your diagnosis ISN'T correct, and deterioration is MUCH slower. For me it's MASSIVE tinn... | |
| Upgrading from Primaluna " 10ft width and 15ft length so 6ft between speakers and 2 ft from side walls is all I've really got." With not much to work with other than it is a dedicated space, it suggests almost nearfield setup and those Sopras need to be pushed out 4.5ft ... | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 Dohmann Helix One- You've arrived, when you can say the Manley Steelhead is "just getting by." Well done. | |
| tech Most people travel everywhere with their phones. You're already playing your files via the phone? | |
| Upgrading from Primaluna j-wall- looks like you have the gear handled. Room/speaker setup looks compromised-diffusion/damping and giving those Sopras room to breath in that small room appears to be the challenge. Don't forget the ceiling-often neglected-diffuse/damp wi... | |
| I wrote/mailed tax checks today... Well, it started off with me disappointed that I'll have to put off getting the Tech Das for yet another year. | |
| Upgrading from Primaluna Based on the profile pics, your speaker setup and room are far from ideal to hear what your setup can do. After that, get a "better" table/ phono amp. It starts at the source. Your Focals/PL gear will support far "better" table/ phono amp. Whe... | |
| Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers "A Night in Tunisia" XRCD 24 celtic66- question to you and other with SOTA digital users: If you play the YT link or web broadast, is it "better" or just as good as a audiophile CD/file? I have heard plenty of SOTA digital-some breathtaking, others...yawn. I don't stream... | |
| Is there a facility that test cables? dadork- I suffer from audio neurosis, but I at least am aware of it. I use all Nordo$t -wall to speaker. Ridiculous at MSRP. Looks impressive to my non audio, musician friends. Giving the builder the benefit of the doubt, you have super magnum... | |
| Schiit Mani 2 Missed the original post of this thread. I used the Mani 1. Great unit. Looks like the current price hasn't been adjusted beyond ridiculous too. Good on Schiit Audio for making the Mani even "better." "BEST" phono amp IMO up to....$3-500? Maybe... |
