| Which Pre-amps Will Allow Two Subs To answer a question, I guess I'm looking at the subs as a left right channel thingy (technical enough). To everyone else, thank you so much. I have one of those 300b amps with a volume control. My speakers are not full range as they are single dr... | |
| Epos M 12, Quad 11L or Von Schweikert VR - 1 Haven't heard the Quads, but between the other two, get the VR-1s. Beautifully balanced. Epos is too sterile for my taste. Then later if you get the bug, there's mods offered on the Vr-1s now. And if you want you can snag the matching sub later. I... | |
| Why Hardly Any High Efficient Bookshelf Speakers? Thanks so much for the quick and informative response. I imagined this is the kind of question that gets asked often and I appreciate you guys helping me out. Take care. | |
| What Do Amp Guys Think About Bele Canto Evo2's? A great amp for the money. Fast as all get out, detailed, controls 90% of the speakers out there. A good company, easy to communicate with. Some may say it's a little dry, a little less than liquid, but when coupled with Bel Canto's Pre-1 this pro... | |
| Finally Taking The Plunge How much money to spend? Enough to get good stuff, usually I buy Demo or discontinued or used. I also buy slowly and piecemeal. If I have to wait 6 months for an arm after buying my TT so be it. If getting a good phono stage means waiting for a ye... | |
| Keep Sony 9000ES and add DAC or buy new CDP? Do yourself a favor. Ship your 9000 to Modwright. For the price of the MF you can have a tubed CD/SACD/DVD better than a Sony 777 in stereo. Check it out before you buy a DAC. My modded 9000 blows away anything under 3500 bucks. | |
| Joe Strummer RIP My high school hero is dead? Son of a bitch! There's a lot of bastards out there walking around and he's dead? There is no god. | |
| Choosing a SACD player...please help This is a slam dunk! Get the Sony! Then save another couple of grand in the next two years and send it off to Modwright, and you might just have the best CD player in the world (read: MIGHT!) All I know is that I directly compared the 777 to the 9... | |
| SACD- my intial thoughts.... I went the middle route and purchased the Sony 9000ES. Then I sent it off to Modwright for 1600 bucks worth of upgrades. The SACD is really, really, good. Especially in that it's so not-fatiguing (I can listen up to 12 hours at a time, never more ... | |
| Any user of Bel Canto DAC 2 ? I did a direct comparison of both of these. I preferred the Kora, but only barely, and since it was tricked out with a bunch of extras and upgrades, I went with the DAC2 and have been quite pleased. When I compare my DAC2 to my SACD (Modwright son... | |
| Help Total Confusion Here's my problem. I really can't get the speakers more than a couple of inches in front of the rack. But I could get each speaker a couple of feet away from the sides of the rack. To put the monitors two feet in front of the rack would mean movin... | |
| Headphone Amps Thanks all!!!! Let the research and listening begin!!!!! | |
| Best Allman Brothers releases? After the first two releases you may stop. There's no point. The live stuff is indulgent, nothing but musical posturing. Don't get me wrong I love 'em. But that country-fried Grateful Dead impression can be grating. Now if you're stoned--well, tha... | |
| Is a offer of -20 percent on an OBO ad insulting? I think it's the way you make the offer. How it's worded. Be polite, and maybe even acknowledge that while some might consider it a lowball offer, you don't mean to offend. Personally, I'm not insulted until about the 40% mark, but even then I'll ... | |
| Tyler "Linbrook" any opinions? I own em. I love em. The best bang for the buck out there. Great service. The high end is exquiste with the millenium tweeter, the midrange is very detailed. Bass is never flabby, but not the lowest out there. The stands are awesome! Even at 92db ... |
