| Integrated SS amps - Luxman vs. Simaudio Moon? Thanks Jeff.I have listened to a lot of systems in many audio dealers, and it has been an interesting and educational journey.I have discovered several good brands that I had not previously heard (Verity Audio, Gershman, Simaudio, Pass, Luxman, Es... | |
| Integrated SS amps - Luxman vs. Simaudio Moon? Thanks,Mark | |
| Verity Audio midrange drivers? All I am trying to point out is that a small company with a small advertising budget has received a huge amount of exposure in an audio magazine in another country, and that makes a strong statement about its products.I fully agree that the great ... | |
| Verity Audio midrange drivers? In the December 2009 issue of Stereophile not only do they review the Verity Audio Leonore, they also short listed the Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation and the Verity Audio Sarastro II for 2009 Product of the Year.In the October 2009 issue they inclu... | |
| Integrated SS amps - Luxman vs. Simaudio Moon? I have spoken to the local Verity Audio dealer and corresponded with Verity Audio, and they have assured me that the Finn, Rienzi, and Leonore would all be appropriate for my room size. The designer of the Rienzi has assured me that it is a good m... | |
| CD players - Luxman vs. Esoteric? I have found 3 reviews of the Luxman D-06 in Chinese.They can be found at the bottom of the page in the link below:http://www.wisesound.com/en_main/in_reviews.asp?page=3&lmce=1304&id=&ser_id=Can anybody comment on the general drift or ... | |
| CD players - Luxman vs. Esoteric? There are seven different models imported into North America:http://www.onahighernote.com/luxman/?c=7Luxman even makes the transport for the three newest models (D-05, D-06, D-08).I imagine that in the Japanese market they compete head-to-head wit... | |
| Integrated SS amps - Luxman vs. Simaudio Moon? Thanks, that is where I heard the Finns with the Luxman 550Aii.This audition got me thinking about the Rienzi with a 590Aii, which I cannot audition in Toronto, but should be a good match.Regards,Mark | |
| Verity Audio midrange drivers? Thanks!Mark | |
| Verity Audio midrange drivers? Thank-you.For many reasons I prefer to buy new. If I buy Verity Audio speakers, the Rienzi is probably as high as I can go. Yes, the Leonore and Parsifal are probably better speakers, but they are around double the price of the Rienzi! The Rienzi ... | |
| Integrated SS amps - Luxman vs. Simaudio Moon? Thank-you.For the right speaker, the Luxman 590Aii, with 30 wpc of pure class A power, looks like a good option.If I decide to buy Verity Audio speakers, which are not demanding, I will probably buy the Luxman 590Aii to drive them.Regards,Mark | |
| CD players - Luxman vs. Esoteric? Thank-you.In my city there are three Esoteric dealers and only one Luxman dealer (but no Luxman cdp on display).I have seen, touched, and listened to the Esoteric X-05 and admired its excellent transport. I have only been able to see Luxman cdp on... | |
| Integrated SS amps - Luxman vs. Simaudio Moon? My library is 14 x 20 feet (not counting 2 bay windows), with the stereo in front of the bay window at the end of the long axis. Ceiling is 8 feet.Regards,Mark | |
| CD players - Luxman vs. Esoteric? The Esoteric X-05 has received a lot of good critical press, but Luxman cd players seem to be less well known. How do these two brands compare?Regards,Mark | |
| Verity Audio midrange drivers? Thanks for the technical insights regarding the 803d vs. 802d midranges.It certainly sounds like most of you are leaning in favour of Verity Audio as opposed to B&W, and from my limited experience in listening to the entry level Verity Audio s... |
