| What's the differences between Krell's Cxs and Mc Yes I have. I think it is a worth while upgrade. I got a chance to hear them side by side at my local dealer. Besides the power increas Krell ads thier improved cast II and sustained bias III circutry. I am on a waiting list for the upgrade myself... | |
| What companies have gone above and beyond? Transparent cables and Mark Levinson did it for me. I had purchased a pair of ultra brick demo's and they upgraded them for no charge and repackaged them. Levenson tech/service is just outstanding. | |
| Nordost ECO 3 Static Inhibitor anyone? Hi Glen, I hav'nt used it yet myself but I am planning to. If I remember correctly it is ok to use on the cd itself, but I believe you are supposed to apply it to the label side. I also remember reading you can spray it directly on the transport a... | |
| Preamp matching for Krell FPB amplifier Audio Research Ref II mates VERY well with the Krells!I run this setup with Thiel CS6 speakers and MIT cables. It is a very synergestic match. | |
| Has anyone heard the 390s.....your thoughts? Thanks for the feedback, have either of you tried it direct to your amp? Hows the preamp/volume stage sound? Vader | |
| Thiel 6 versus Thiel 7 I have had a lot of equipment go through my posession in the last five years, but the one piece that has lasted is my Thiel CS6 speakers. My second favorite is the Krell FPB300c that drives them! Looking towards a Spectral front end this year. Kod... | |
| upgrade krell mc250 to mc350's for 1,000. Not yet, but I am planning to. I own the FPB-300.Good luck.....Vader | |
| Best of the holidays to all... A very Happy Holidays to all, may all your sonic wishes cometrue. as always.........good Luck!Vader | |
| Advise on used 1k to 1.5k pre-amp I would go with the Mark Lev 38! The sound is very good andin time if your budget allows, you can upgrade it to the awsome 380S.Good Luck............Vader | |
| Lexicon MC-12..Anyone with hands on experience? Ericbee, I have had the MC-12 in my system for about three weeks now. Stereo is much improved over the MC-1.Here are my thoughts: Being fed a balanced digital signalthe sound is very good....not great. I would not replace mystandalone dac just yet... | |
| Advise on used 1k to 1.5k pre-amp Go with the B&W if you like thier sound, Check older peices from Krell, Classe and ML....the 38 comes to mind for close to your price range, perhaps a tad more...but worth it.For tubes look at some of the Audio Research and Bat equipment.....v... | |
| A/C Master Coupler Question I prop my power cords with DH squares od BDR cones depending on the hieght. You can also wrap a piece of electrical tape around the IEC end for a more snug fit.This is a common problem of most after market power cords.Good luck........Vader | |
| Any opinions on Classe Preamps? I had a CP-60 also, very nice stuff. I miss that preamp. I cant really say the Krell I replaced it with blew it away.Better yes, but not night and day. Now the Audio research Ref II........WOW......that thing killed them both! good luck.............. | |
| "Fast sounding tube amp" with plenty of power? any? Check out the Audio Research 300 MKII's, very fast and very powerful! Good luck...........Vader | |
| How about using a Denon AVR5800 with Martin Logans Wow, sounds like a very nice combination! Make sure you have plenty of ventilation, the ML's run at a low impeadencewhich will run your receiver hard! Sound should be great.Good luck..........Vader |
