| PSB Synchrony 2B Bill,As a PSB and Dynaudio dealer myself, I'll chime in. First, the Synchrony monitors sound wonderful and they are the best monitors they have ever made. But, they are no where near the league the Dynaudio C1 monitor is in. To be fair, there is o... | |
| Dynaudio Focus 220's vs. T2.5's Hey Dynaudio dealer here. The 2.5 can be found on the used market from time-to-time, however, they may have been owned by several others and passed around some. The 2.5 was a very good speaker in it's day, but the 220 is very close if not slightly... | |
| Dynaudio Focus 140 vs Totem Model 1 Signature Throw some extra coin into your amp purchase or wait and save up to get a used Prasound Halo A21. The halo A21 has gobbs of current at 250w/channel and will make your speakers sing. Plus, you won't have to upgrade your amp if decide to move up the... | |
| B&W vs PSB The PSB is the much better speaker over the B&W model in question as it should given it's price. We are loving the Synchrony's here in the showroom. | |
| How particluar are Dynaudio C-4's to room placement? Mike, Dynaudio dealer here. Do try and place out from the back wall 3' if you can. Even a an inch or two can make a world of difference with these speakers. With the side walls out of the way, you have a lot things working for you even with a tigh... | |
| Dynaudio Focus 140 vs Totem Model 1 Signature As a Dynaudio dealer I'll chime in and hopefully clarify a statement you've made that is incorrect "Dynaudios are quite similar to my understanding (same bass driver)". In no way are these the same drivers. In some cases Totem uses a driver made b... | |
| Thoughts on Era Design 5 monitors?? Michael, it's ttowntony. You bought some speakers in a past life from me. To your question, the ERA D4/5's are excellent speakers. The D5 Satellites are among the very best made and looking at any price category. As to how they sound? They sound w... | |
| REL Sub T1 or T2 Good Match for Dynaudio Focus 140 As a Dynaudio dealer I might be somewhat biased, but why not stick with Dynaudio and look at the Sub250? The Dynaudio subs are superb imho. They play clean and tight without any hint of boomyness to them. With control at your fingertips to adjust ... | |
| New NAD M-25 or Used McIntosh MC-207? Hawk, as a dealer I of course like the NAD Masters. However, if you are looking for a multi-channel amp that betters the NAD easily and remains budget friendly. You might look at one of my personal favorites the Parasound Halo A51. I have it in my... | |
| New NAD M-25 or Used McIntosh MC-207? The NAD M25 is a fantastic amplifier, I really enjoy it's dead-quiet operation, sexy looks, and dymanics. It has enough current to run just about any home theater with ease.The McIntosh is good as well, but believe cost quite a bit more than the M25. | |
| Dynaudio Special 25's Dyn dealer here, I'll chime in. The NAD Masters is a very good mate with the Dyn monitors like the C1 and Special 25. This is a very popular combo outside of the US and they often show together. The Masters are starting to make waves here as well.... | |
| Aerial 6 or 7B ? Nearfield listening. Thanks. Both are quite good and I don't necessarily think one outshines the other. I do prefer a fuller sound, so I would lean towards the 7B given what I know about your room. Any plans to run a sub? If not, then I would definitely go the 7B route. | |
| Recommendations on Wall Mount HT Speakers Some of these are near your budget and are our personal favorites we sell: Sunfire CRM Trio, Dynaudio 42Sat's or Dynaudio Contour SR's, Triad Onwall Bronze. | |
| Former Revel Salon Owners: What Did You Switch To? Being once very familiar with the Salons. As an alternative I would point you in the direction of the Aerial 20T's, Dynaudio C4's, Avalon Isis, Focal Utopia, or Montana XP's. My personal favorites are the Aerial and Dyn C4's. The Aerial 20T being ... | |
| Subwoofer Selection HELP ? ? ? Nice subs no doubt. If I were to choose from your choices it would be Velodyne DD-18 then the JL Audio Fathom based from years being a Velo dealer. The JL Audio could easily be my first choice though as well. That's a tough call. Another sub we ar... |
