| Comments on Tannoy Kensington SE - Room size Mikedimitrov, A fiend has them both. He prefered the WM hands down. Islandmandan, The Tannoy Canterbury + Plinius sa-103 was my best configuration until I discovered Chord Electronics. Dsholl1, Is not just about driving , is about getting it all. ... | |
| JPS Labs versus Audio Quest (Megasam?) I´m running SuperC 2 IC´s and Super + on speakers. Them are just right. I agree them substracts a bit of top end but depth , soundstage , bass , etc .. are fine. | |
| The Hub: EVEREST - The tallest peak of JBL range? Hi guys, The d55000 Everest in original condition sucks IMHO. The xover is a disaster and the woofers are dry and sterile . The 2425 drivers are just regular , nothing impressive. Now the good news. The d55000 maybe converted in the best speaker o... | |
| Comments on Tannoy Kensington SE - Room size Hi guys, My Canterbury´s sings with anything you drop on the chain but if you want to do critical listening and get the last drop of juice , big bad class A SS amps are the way to go. I had a lot of vintage JBL , Altec, EV , Monitor silver-red-gol... | |
| McIntosh MCD500 vs Ayon CD-2 Don´t know the mcd-500 but my two cents FWIW. I have been playing the CD-2 through a MA-6600 . It is far better on direct connection using the digital volume of the c-2 than using the 6600 preamp section . Using the Ayon cd-1 is just the opossite ... | |
| PC recommendation for McIntosh 501's Hi, Try Iego 80229 , if you dont find it go for the new Torrent. Play a bit with the plugs to get your prefered tone. More bass , body and sweetness = a Cu Furutech as male + Iego gold plated IEC. Accuracy and speed= Male Iego gold plated + Wattga... | |
| Gryphon-Tannoy Bombay,Yes sir , the Canterbury´s sound better with medium to high power amps. SET's with less than 24 watts are not enough. | |
| Ayon CD Players: CD-1 and CD-3 Got a Cd1-s like a month ago. Simply outstanding. No more no less. | |
| Is my VTL IT-85 enough for Eggleston Fontaine's? Just arrived the Mb-125´s. Enough power and control for the Andra II. Absolutely recommended. | |
| Is my VTL IT-85 enough for Eggleston Fontaine's? Hi , Im using the ST-85 directly from an Ayon CD1s to a pair of Andra II's. The room is 18 X 23 and the VTL manages it better than Bel canto class D S300 even when I biamplified with another s300 ( actually a 300i on bypass mode). The ST-85 is jus... | |
| Integrated amp for Eggleston Andra II Jprice, Thanks for you answer. I understand you since I also own 2 systems at home but on a different direction than yours . My choice is to have different approaches on each system. One is based on SET amps + Tannoy Canterbury and the other right... | |
| Integrated amp for Eggleston Andra II Jprice , Why did you change from E.W to the SF´s? Any comments ? Thanks. | |
| Integrated amp for Eggleston Andra II Hi again, After several tests changing electronics with the Andra II´s ,my best results were with a Jadis Pre JPL and a Bel Canto s300. Since the 300 BCD series has a low input impedance , them need a preamp or spurce with low output impedance an... | |
| Integrated amp for Eggleston Andra II Hi, Just received my Andra II's this month. Tried several amps on them. Audion 300b SET and VV52B ( both with volume controls) monos cant move them , neither on biamp configuration. Since I dont like PP tube amps went in other direction. Class D I... | |
| Anyone tried Acrolink power cables from Japan ? Rja , Missed to say that I use the Acrolink 6n-p4030 + Oyaide connectors for all purposes without a single problem. |
