| Speakers in the 5-6K$ region & their components It sounds like that you don't want a kit, but looking is free. This is a John Krutke design. Extremely well known in builders circles. This would be and enjoyable speaker. Seems to meet all of your criteria. https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com... | |
| Speakers in the 5-6K$ region & their components To comment on deep bass with a 6.5 inch woofer... its true that moving enough air with a small driver isn't ideal for anyone who likes that impact that comes from larger woofers, but multiple small drivers does work. Todays designs not all must ... | |
| Integrated Amp recommendation for $300 that will balance well with Vandersteen and NAD That hadn't crossed my mind... nice buy. Buying used, you can only find so much, that's a nice little amp. Congrats | |
| Coda CP pre-amp vs Rogue Athena Magnum vs ARC LS-12 .Need information The Only SP Series that I've sat in Front of is an Old SP10. It did a lot of nice things, but in the end added color. Pulled a review of the SP 17, sure sounds good. The Muse Sold. I've only seen a couple of these available in the past 5 year... | |
| Speakers in the 5-6K$ region & their components Relatively inexpensive parts does not mean poorly designed. The likes of the SB Acoustics woofer in the GT is not known as the most top tiered builder, but I have found their quality consistent and very good indeed. | |
| Coda CP pre-amp vs Rogue Athena Magnum vs ARC LS-12 .Need information I had an old buddy that had a 38s in his system. I hadn't heard it, but he liked a lot. It has a good reputation as one of the better ML pre's. Not sure this helps. I would say, Make sure that its the "s" version. I recall it fairing much bette... | |
| Speakers in the 5-6K$ region & their components Well to continue with Roy's question at hand... the Grand Teton uses a SB Acoustics, 5 1/4 inch woofer and a Heil Air Motion Transformer tweeter, both are directionally horn loaded and use a diffuser. None of these parts are outrageously expensi... | |
| Replace C28 with... ? What I expected to hear, enjoy! What about the tweeter? Nevermind | |
| Speakers in the 5-6K$ region & their components @roylindenfield sorry Roy, I forgot to mention, the Ribbon on the Marten speaker, looks to be a Fountek Neo CD3.0 | |
| Speakers in the 5-6K$ region & their components Other than the Accuton, I've used every driver mentioned. In every case, with good crossover work, the finished product would be very good. I think that your letting the price of a single driver get in the way of the finished product. Peter ment... | |
| Coda CP pre-amp vs Rogue Athena Magnum vs ARC LS-12 .Need information @sunnyjim Classe CP60 with phono just popped up on ebay. | |
| Coda CP pre-amp vs Rogue Athena Magnum vs ARC LS-12 .Need information @sunnyjim Well Jim, this would be a very tough choice for me... Really too bad that you can't compare and if I understand correctly, you haven't heard any of them.... So: The Muse is really very good, I understand that you are unfamiliar with i... | |
| B&K ST202, modify or replace I don't find these 2 amps in the same league of one another. To be fair I haven't heard an ST202, but at one time I owned a Reference 4420 and for my taste, the DNA .5 would slaughter it. The B&K was soft & pretty, kinda laid back... The ... | |
| Coda CP pre-amp vs Rogue Athena Magnum vs ARC LS-12 .Need information @sunnyjim Hi Jim, I didn't realize that you were in a budget that high, I was looking at that $1500 & below. At that price point ($1500 & below), you have best of the best lined up in SS. I've had tubes in every form in my own system, ... | |
| Coda CP pre-amp vs Rogue Athena Magnum vs ARC LS-12 .Need information @sunnyjim Hi Jim, The CP comes with a basic remote. The $150 upgrade is larger digital readout remote. The Sanders is comparable to a Coda 04/Windows Continuum III, it was from around 2004 or so, the CP replaced the CL with added phono, I bel... |
