| Verity Audio midrange drivers? I have been enjoying the Verity Audio Parsifal Ovations for several months now, driven by the Luxman 509u integratd amp and Luxmn D-06 cdp. As a system it sounds wonderful, and the electronics match well with the speakers. I enjoy classical music ... | |

| CD players - Luxman vs. Esoteric? I have ordered a Luxman 509u integrated amp and a Luxman D-06 cdp. I am sure that I will be happy :-) | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? And why not go all the way and buy the 509u? | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Thanks Brian, I am still waiting for the Feb issue.Mark | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Chashas1 - which recent issue of Stereophile (and what page) mentions the 505u?Thanks,Mark | |
| B&W 800 D or 801 D? I was considering the 802d until I auditioned the Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation - the Parsifals simply took my breath away. They were so much more musically engaging than the 802d, which in turn seemed more cold and clinical - accurate and as oppo... | |
| driving Verity Audio Parsifal Ovations? Thanks for the input. The M800a would be ideal, but trying to explain this to the family budget committee is far more difficult than justifying the purchase of an integrated amp. Integrateds have a much higher WAF. I am not sure that I would buy a... | |
| CD players - Luxman vs. Esoteric? Thanks Mordante, this is exactly the combination that I am considering, and the reason for this thread given that I have never even seen a Luxman cdp. I have seen and listened to one of their integrated amps, and if they build cdps the same way, t... | |
| Magico V2 vs. Sonus Faber Cremona M In the 20K range there is the Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation, and at half that price the Verity Audio Rienzi. They both work well with Luxman integrateds (509u or 590Aii). I really liked the Cremona M until I heard the Parsifals - they simply took ... | |
| CD players - Luxman vs. Esoteric? Thanks Andrew.Though I cannot yet audition them, I am leaning towards either the DU-80 or the newer D-06 (which the local dealer will shortly have on demo). The DU-80 has certainly received some rave reviews, especially for its fluid musicality an... | |
| Pure Class A shootout Consider the 60 wpc pure class A Luxman M800A - 60 wpc into 8 Ohms, 120 wpc into 4 Ohms and 240 wpc into 2 Ohms.The 30 wpc Luxman 590Aii integrated amp is also highly regarded.Regards,Mark | |
| driving Verity Audio Parsifal Ovations? Thanks Steven. I think that your tube amp is at a much higher quality level than mine, so hopefully it will not be damaged when a tube burns out. Tubes are wonderful when all goes well (which can be years at a stretch).As I mentioned earlier, I ha... | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Many thanks for the update Jimbo!Congratulations on setting-up the 805s - enjoy!Regards,Mark |
