Dynavector Te Kaitora Rua loading I've settled at under 100ohms for a load. This cartridge has a very low internal resistance of 5ohms. Applying the typical multiplication factor of 2-10x internal resistance leaves a value far below 100ohms. I preferred 50 ohms but 30-50 would wor... | |
Changing to bookshelf speakers. Recommendations? Easy- Harbeth HL5. Will sound superb in that room. Try to audition it. I know the distributor will send you a pair of speakers to try out!Vik | |
Speakers for a 12 x 13 room So I've narrowed down my choices to smaller speakers like the Harbeth p3, Audio Note K and Devore 3XL. I'll have to talk to my dealer about the 3XL's though as even they may be a bit too much for the room. I'm really such a fan of the Shindo Monti... | |
Speakers for a 12 x 13 room @Nrenter- You and I have both done this before haven't we? :) Thanks for the tips. If I could return the favor, you should really add some more bass traps in the room specifically at the ceiling to wall junctures. It will really help you with stan... | |
Speakers for a 12 x 13 room Thanks all. I have an array of bass traps that would make Ethan Winer of Real Traps proud. The room was designed using an array of software solutions. I have bass traps all over the place per my original post. Duke, you hot the nail right on the h... | |
Speakers for a 12 x 13 room Also, I am a big fan of parametric EQ on subs to fill in the bottom end so K's may be the best bet since they have the shallowest bass depth. I just love efficient speakers though. Are their supper efficient speakers that don't go down past 40 or ... | |
Speakers for a 12 x 13 room Thank you gentlemen, specifically those who shared speakers (whose specs I will look up) that worked in small rooms. Bottom line is that auditioning of items like the Audio Note k and J vs Harbeth p3 and C7 will have to be done.Vik | |
Integrated for Harbeth Small Room System You're really missing out by not trying the Leben CS-300x. It's a tube unit but so far better than the Supernait I heard on the same system. I even preferred it to the CS-600, the 300's big brother.But if SS is what you want do check out the Super... | |
speakers for 15' by 12' listening room? Check out Harbeth, Spendor and Audio Note. Don't go too large though or you'll get some prominent bass nodes- trust me I speak from experience. | |
Cary 300SEI vs Art Audio PX-25 I think you can split the diference sonically and have a bit more "drive" with a set of Audio note 300b monos. If you're just driving cans the Audio Note P3 or P3 Silver would be ideal. The US importer for Audio Note uses AKG's I believe and he tu... | |

New Cartridge choice I think a superb cart considering your preferences (for more detail that whole lit from within with dynamics) is the Dynavector Te Kaitora Rua. There is one for sale now though I know nothing about the seller. It is one from the best DV makes and ... | |
9", 10" or 12" tonearm? Why don't people just buy those tangential arms? Cost? I'm curious as tangential arm seem to mimic what the vinyl cutting machines do.Vik | |
VPI Scout w/ JMW-9 vs Aries w/ JMW-10 To me the Aries is just an overall superior product. The fit and finish on my Aries is just in another class compared to the Scout I owned. Socially, the difference to me is that the Scout was a bit hyper fast. I liked it but it was ultra dynamic.... |
