| Need a recommendation on an interim power amp Harman Kardon PA2200, better than the Adcom IMO. | |
| Which songs or musical standards have haunted you? Orpheus, just how old are you? | |
| Audio Equipment... the word Cool... and Life My teenage grandkids tell me I'm cool. Who better to judge? | |
| Best AQ speaker cables for Unico and Opera? Get a used pair of cables either here, ebay or one of the other sites. I use Audioquest Crystal+ speaker cables with my Unico. I purchased them for 20% of their retail price on ebay. The only way to go IMO. | |
| any one give the Polk Lsi25 a good listen? They are not 'audiophile' speakers. They are speakers for enjoying music. Maybe that's the disconnect here.Rok2id That makes sense to me as I have owned a couple (not all) audiophile speakers that were terrible at conveying the music. | |
| any one give the Polk Lsi25 a good listen? Shoe, my impression of the LSi15s was that they had a nice tonal balance, good dynamics, although I don't play music loud very often, plenty of detail without getting harsh. There biggest failing was a flat soundstage, no depth of field. I like th... | |
| Hope to find help with the following please? It's been a while but if memory serves the cassette formulation is designated by the holes in the top of the cassette. A switch on the deck reads the tape type by sensing the hole position. I would bet you have an issue with the sensing switch. We... | |
| any one give the Polk Lsi25 a good listen? I owned the LSi15s for a period and thought they were pretty good for the price. They were replaced by a pair of Proac Response 1.5s which were only slightly better IMO.The LSi7 is one of my favorite small monitors at their current ebay refurb price. | |
| Switching preamps in and out Turn the amp off before switching. And I agree with Elizabeth on this one. You really need to take time to listen to each pre to fully understand what you are hearing. Too often the piece that sounds best in short term comparisons don't hold up as... | |
| NEED AUDIOQUEST TYPE 8 OR CV-8, PLEASE HELP. You should include the Audioquest Slate, especially the original version, in your search. I have reterminated the Type 8 as well as the Slate and they seemed nearly identical. At one point I used the Slate for one speaker and Type 8 for the other.... | |
| Integrated amp: Can it perform equal to separates? The Pre3 had that elusive property of the straight wire with gain IMO, absolute neutrality. The class D amp that worked best with it for me was the Bel Canto Ref500S. I had the stereo version, not the mono blocs. I also had a pair of mono blocs wh... | |
| Integrated amp: Can it perform equal to separates? My first reaction as a previous Pre3 owner is to say keep it. Unless you're moving without shipping any goods it won't ad much to the move. I have regretted parting with mine many times. It was used with quite a few amps, many of the class D, with... | |
| Now That You've Ripped Your Entire Collection... Mine are still on the shelves. Think I'll keep them for a while as there's no good alternative. | |
| Help me find my Weak Link. Along the line of Zd542, how about the room configuration? I can't comment on your equipment but can tell you the room is an important piece of the puzzle. | |
| $10 vs $100 power plug It depends on how resolving your setup is to hear the difference from plugs.HorchaiAlso depends on how much time you want to spend listening for a difference in plugs. |
