| Would you get a pair of B&W 804 d3 ? :) | |
| Suggestions for Full Range Speakers up to 10K @invictus005 Then the 702 s2 must sound even better, with the tweeter on top and a third woofer ? Did you try it?Better than Magico A3 and Focal Sopra 2 ? If thats really the case , the 703 and 702 s2 are the bargain of the last 5 years ! | |
| Mcintosh 452 vs Pass Labs XA 30.5 My last post was deleted, it’s ok I understand why. To make it a short story, I own a Luxman M900u and the pre I use is a McIntosh C52. I did the preamplifier acid test. I compared the DAC direct to amplifier VS DAC to C52 to amp. to see if I was ... | |
| Audio Research Ref 10 vs 40th Anniversary preamp Save yourselves 15k$ and buy a Luxman C900u. It sounds as good as the Ref10. | |
| Mcintosh 452 vs Pass Labs XA 30.5 My vote is for Mcintosh. The second poster said it, the 452 blows the xa30.5 out of the water. Pass reviews were raving about the .5 series years ago, now they say the .8 series is much better.... so the .5 series was not so good then, makes me la... | |
| Int Amp for Thiel CS 3.7 I recommend something warm with Thiel, or else brass and alto sax at high volume can be hard on the ears...McIntosh, Pass Labs class A, Luxman class A, Sugden. | |
| Schiit not that Good? Esoteric is up there with the best digital gear.Shiit still beleive oversampling is a bad thing... when we all know the best digital players are << pcm ing >> everything to dsd. | |
| Just listened to Focal Sopra 2 on Devialet 130Pro Glad you are enjoying them. I would really like to try a pair in my room some day. | |
| ELAC - Adante... what’s the verdict? After the last post , or the Adante are freekingly godly good , or the Wilson Sashas are the most creepingly overrated. | |
| So many integrated options -- McIntosh 8900, Levinson 585, Lyngdorf 2170, Anthem STR, McIntosh says the C47 is their most advanced preamp yet. ( along with its bigger brother the C52). If the brand is serious, it should be better than the older C48. I find that the sound of their preamps have evolved more than the sound of their am... | |
| Should I eliminate my preamp? My dac digital section is no slouch, but the last McIntosh preamplifier brought magic to my system. Wihout it the sound was thinner, narrower.. | |
| Your Opinion on Amps I would go Bryston 6b sst2 in that list. What speakers do you have. | |
| So many integrated options -- McIntosh 8900, Levinson 585, Lyngdorf 2170, Anthem STR, Agreed with Audiotroy. Keep the Krell amp, buy a nicer preamp to go with it. | |
| Ps Audio BHK preamp Vs ARC best preamps Seems like the older pre amplifier designs are really substrative to the sound. It is my experience also. Newer design are better, still I think ARC, Ayre and some other brands are asking just too much money for their top gun pres nowadays... just... | |
| Please give me advice about an ARC VT 200 amp I have huge respect for audiophiles that are going with tube amps. I think this is THE WAY to go if someone wants real and full tube sound. I don t think going tube preamp and ss amp is the right way, as I beleive messing with tube in the preamp ... |
