Review: Dynaudio Contour 1.3se Monitor
I to have choosen the 1.3 se for the very same reasons you have mentioned. Namely the tonality of these speakers is to die for. Clarity, musicality, and rhythm. I am surprised to hear the one poster say he preferred the M20. I auditioned these spe...

Totem mani 2 or Dynaudio 1.3 SE
I am also in the market for some speakers and have found the Dyn 1.3 se to be as described in this thread. Extremely accurate with the best tonality of speakers at its price point and a bit above. I have not heard the mani 2. They dyns are a littl...

A Black cube with the upgraded power supply. Heard the Arieds the other dau and was amazed at the tonality of the table. However IO think it may have been a bit neutral for my tastes...I prefer a warmer richer sound and althouhg the Aries was neve... 
New TT for around 2000--- need some advice
Interesting info about supports. I bought the Salamder Synergy for the looks not really the isolation properties it may or may nothave. I was thinkin of going the Marble slab/mdf/granite on top of Vibrapods/inner tube route. I'll see though. I hop... 
New TT for around 2000--- need some advice
I actually wa told by my local VPI dealer to go with the mk iv since I have such a small room and wooden floor. I would be placing any table on top of my Salamander rack. Wouldn't airborne sound be enough to audibly effect on my sound? If not than...

REGA Planet vs Jupiter
The overall tonailty I heard was the same, the difference wasin complex passages where the planet would kind of trudge along losing separation and detail the Jupiter confidently separated instruments created a wider soundstage and ultimnately seem... 
Meadowlark Swift...How do they sound?
I think they they are the best value in audio (perhpas bettered by the Dynaudio 1.8) I heard them demoes at my audiphile society meeting by the owner/designer Pat McGinty. These are small speakers, but Pat has managed aremarkable amount of bass ou... 
JM Lab Micro Utopia
In the system I heard pass with (maggies, Adcom cd player x-1 pre) the x-250 was anything but warm. Rather I thought it was dead neutral but instead of cold and lifeless it was rather musical. Not for me but if you want dead neutrality that has a ... 
JM Lab Micro Utopia
In my listening tests with all Sim Audio gear I found that the speaker is a bit forward. This speaker used to be on the top of my list but I think one can do nearly as good and MAYBE better for a lot less money. But the speakers are GORGEOUS. I wo...
