| What's the most important speaker attribute...and For me it's balance and seemlessness. | |
| System for a teenager Albert, sorry I scanned your last post too fast, and I didn't read that your friends requested tubes. IMHO, the Vandy 2's could use a bit of power. I know Vandersteen recommends a minimum of 40 watts, but, I think some where between 80 and 100 wou... | |
| System for a teenager Considering the budget and the audience, I wonder if going with tubes is the best idea. I agree with the Vandy's in a big way. I would think a McCormack or solid state c-j might fit in nicely with the rest of your plans. | |
| Tubes with Thiel CS-3.6's? has anyone had success? Zaikesman, "stable resistive load" is a bit vague. I would assume that it just means that the impedance doesn't vary much. Typical Thiel. I think they do this to maintain "amplitude coherence", IMHO a good idea. It still doesn't suggest current ne... | |
| Best 5 ch. amp used - 2500-3500.00 price I think McCormack works well with Vandersteen. I don't know anything about the Lexicon. | |
| Vandersteen 2Ce Signature vs. 3A Signature I think the 2's a better value. That said, I think the rest of your system would appreciate the difference the 3's offer. | |
| Tubes with Thiel CS-3.6's? has anyone had success? Zaikesman, with the the 1.6's it seems that Thiel is making their speakers more efficient/sensitive (I still don't know which term is technically correct). I can't help but feel that their efforts may be a bit misplaced. I think keeping the impeda... | |
| Problem with Adcom ACE 515 Call Adcom they have very good customer service, it may be an inexpensive fix. | |
| McIntosh and Autoformers. . .? Aball, to think people pay for ST's advise! | |
| Pass Labs amplifiers... While some prefer the warmer sound of the Aleph's I prefer the dynamics of the X series. For what ever it's worth I liked the look of the Alephs better. | |
| Can speakers be both "big" and "accurate" ? Pbb is right on. | |
| Can speakers be both "big" and "accurate" ? I think your room might be a bit small for what I would consider a "big" speaker. That said, I think the Dunlavys ceratinly qualify as "big" and "accurate" speaker. | |
| Is 2 channel dead? Sogood51 you should consider changing your user name to Sobad4all. I don't mind a difference of opinion, but, you could at least try to make an effort to offer constructive criticism. These kind of remarks help no one. | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... I usually don't like when we get off topic, but, I'm really enjoying this one. I'm not familiar with many mentioned here. Thanks for the the putting me in the know. My favorite is McCallan 18 year old, to my mind their best value. I like Glenlivie... | |
| Your experience with Thiel 3.6 While not my favorite combination, it's a wise one. One of the better amp values that works well with Thiels. At this price point you might want to consider the bigger solid state c-j's as well. I haven't heard the latest offerings from c-j yet (I... |
