| A Better Way to Buy Gear - Help Needed Is it an amp or a box full of bricks? If he has not opened the box how does he know what is in it and in what condition it is in? I would never buy without proper photos, and never buy from someone with less than 100% positive ratings. If you a... | |
| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? Sound intriguing! | |
| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? Thx - I took the plunge and ordered a Puritan Audio PSM 156. | |
| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? Thx - I will look into Shunyata Research - I was unfamiliar with them until recently. | |
| Luxman 509x or Simaudio 600iV2 with mágico A3. I have owned a Luxman L-509u powering Verity Audio Parsifal Ovations speakers and more recently a Luxman L-595A integrated amp. I own a Sim Audio Moon transport and have looked at some of their amps but have not had any in my system. The Luxman ... | |
| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? Thx - the PSM 156 gets a lot of love! | |
| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? I'm looking for a modest but effective power filter in a second system, more modest than the Accuphase PS-530 in my main system that replaced a PS Audio PP12 power regenerator. | |
| Help me understand the current amp market The Luxman L-509x is a hugely capable amp (I have a 509u now in a second system). I am not familiar with Wisdom Audio speakers, but having in-wall speakers could be the weakest part of your system. Maybe you should be looking for speakers at... | |
| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? I think the REF I5i is made by Furman, not Furutech... Sounds like you are enjoying the PSM 156 (not PMS!). | |
| what are the best sounding Accuphase or Luxman amps/preamps? @sutts - sorry to hear that you sold them, but I'm enjoying mine. There are so many factors between systems including speaker matching with the amp, sources, room, power etc. The Accuphase C-2450 + A48 preamp/amp combo are a noticeable improveme... | |
| slide in phono stage for Accuphase C-2450 preamplifier - is it any good? Thanks to all for your advice and input. Here is my update: I installed a current production Accuphase AD-2900 phono unit into my C-2450 preamp. It is a substantial unit that is very well built, was easy to install and works flawlessly. The prea... | |
| Amp vs Preamp They are both important and work in unison like a couple on a dance floor. | |
| Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation The Parsifal was Verity Audio's first speaker launched 30 years ago, and the rear firing bass has been a constant in most of their other designs. With the Parsifal Ovation you can flip the bass around and have the woofer and bass port face forw... | |
| Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation The comment is just "bass pouring out the rear". | |
| Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation The Verity Audio Parsifal is one of the great speakers of the last 30 years - it was the first product that Verity Audio launched, and the Ovation is I believe the 4th of 5 iterations of that venerable design. I have owned the Parsifal Ovation si... |
