| Power tubes as drivers -- Line Magnetic Charles, I thought of that. Frankly I don't want to handle my speakers too much for fear of scratching them. Besides, for this kind of money I would expect a bit more flexibility from the dealer. Unfortunately his stance was very firm and unequivo... | |
| Synergistic Research HFT + FEQ I am always open minded about tweaks but also like to understand the science behind them. After reading the explanation on the SR site I must admit I am still at a lost to understand what the HFT does and how it does it. Can someone please try to ... | |

| Power tubes as drivers -- Line Magnetic I am dying to try the 518 with my very inefficient Sonus Faber Evolution monitors but my local dealer will not allow an in home demo. Anyone in the Southern California area want to let me borrow theirs for a few days?? :). Pretty please? | |
| Poll...Ayre V3 versus Pass Labs X250..... Hmmm...better is subjective. I have owned the Pass XA160 and Ayre MXR monoblocks. In the end I preferred the Ayre because I appreciated the clarity and dynamics. To me the Pass was a bit softer in its presentation with a warmer sound. Lots will al... | |
| grills or no grills on your speakers..matters? In my case, I have the Sonus Faber Evolutions with the cool string grilles so for me...its grilles on all the way! Looks are all that matters, for speakers and porn stars! :) | |
| Wilson Sophia vs Usher Mini Dancer II Hello...I used to own the BE-10s before the diamond upgrade. I paired it with both Pass XA160 and Ayre MXR monoblocks. To my hears I felt the Ushers sounded best with the Ayre.They are indeed beautiful speakers but they do require a fairly large r... | |
| Power tubes as drivers -- Line Magnetic Dkidknow, what speakers are you driving with the 518? | |
| Tweeter height...align with ears? Thanks Onhwy61. That Stereophile article was a good read. Given that I am only 3" below the tweeter height at a horizontal distance of 86" away from the tweeter means that I am only off axis by less than 2 degrees. According to the the Stereophile... | |
| Tweeter height...align with ears? Thanks guys. Unfortunately the stands that came with my speakers are not adjustable for height or rake. I was messing around with toe in last night which seemed to help get the coherence right. I will test out different height chairs today to see ... | |

| PASS - comparison X 350 to XA 60.5 Hello Dieselpark, I dont exactly have the same comparison: I used to own the XA160 and listened extensively to the X250. These pass amps are all very good, very smooth sounding and engaging. I would say the XA series gives you a bit blacker backgr... | |
| Poor man's Rockport Atrias? Jwm, if I can get a decent price on the demo units I will definitely pull the trigger. At full retail I am not so sure....Goose, finding a $10k speaker that gave 90% of the performance would be the holy grail for me! As I typed that I realized how... | |
| Poor man's Rockport Atrias? Thanks guys. I figure at this price point I need to do my due diligence as much I would just love to buy the Atrias right now and start enjoying them. I should have known that I could not depend on this crew to be the voice the reason! :) | |
| Poor man's Rockport Atrias? Charles1dad, lol! It's a sickness I tell you! |
