| Replacing Thiel 2.2's, Need Monitor Suggestions If the Thiels are what you like I'd suggest a used pair of 1.6s. The newer Thiels have a sleeker look than the 2.2s. There are a couple of pairs listed now. Hate to be so obvious but as Meadowlarks were suggested, I have a pair of Kestrel 2s for s... | |
| Poll.....what size is your room? 12' X 12'6" Yes nearly square so acoustic treatments were necessary. Absolutely love what I'm hearing in this small room. | |
| More than one CD player Pdn, do a search in the archives for Resolution Audio; excellent cdps. The CD-50 is their first player, I believe, with outstanding sound. Listening to HDCD encoded discs through the balanced outputs it is as good as I've heard from redbook. The o... | |
| More than one CD player My standard cdp is a Resolution Audio CD-50 with a Linn Genki as an alternate. Just as you stated in your question I like a different perspective once in a while. For a while I was picking up a used player every couple of months and have been able... | |

| Sufjan Stevens, Come On Feel The Illinoise After listening to "John Wayne Gacey" numerous times now I have to say it is one powerful song. The breathing at the end seals it. | |
| Why so little Primare gear on A'gon? Bad rep? When they are listed they don't stay listed for long. A Primare amp was listed today and is marked "sold" already. | |
| Smallest room dimensions for good bass to 20hz Just because the wavelength of the signal is longer than the room dimensions doesn't mean it isn't generated by the seakers and heard/felt by the listener. If that were the case then my headphones would really sound like crap. In a small room the ... | |
| Phase switch on pre amp use? It inverts the polarity of the signal output to your amp 180 degrees. So anything that follows would be out of phase from the original source. My cdp has a phase switch and I can't say it makes a difference although I've never listened critically ... | |
| Ugliest Speakers??? Spica Angelus. Remind me of the nuns that would rap my knuckles with a ruler. | |
| WAF - Wife Acceptance Factor Mrjstark, that's why I find paypal so great. My wife has no idea how much $$ is in that account. | |
| what kind of audiophile are you ? It took me a while to realize I'm not an audiophile. Just a lover of music with a penchant for simple, clean sonic reproduction. | |
| Heat issue with Lamm M1.2 Reference I was checking Lamm's web site and saw this feature of the 1.2The M1.2 Reference is a masterful blend of design and engineering simplicity. It is a pure class A amplifier featuring high-speed MOS-FET transistors in the output stage with no overall... |
