| Need preamp recommendation for electrostatics There's an amplifier designed specifically for electrostatics called the Innersound ESL. These can be had in your price range(1100 or so). Do a search over at audioasylum in the planar area and you'll find alot of postive comments regarding this a... | |
| Have Pre/Power amps had there day? The amount of pre's and amps still being made tells me no. Even the home theater crowd have plenty of multi channel separate amps to choose from. For those of us who want the very best quality and have the room separates will remain the main choic... | |
| Best speakers with Pass labs X-350.5 I'd get the speakers that I really liked and then worry about whether the amp is a good match. Personally I think it's like buying a suit to match the sox I bought. I know Marty DeWulf of Bound for Sound uses Vmps RM 40's with a Pass amp and think... | |
| Marantz SA8260 Direct to Amp What I meant is that if he hooks up the Marantz directly to the amp without a passive at minimum it's likely he'll blow his speakers. The Marantz has no volume control I'm aware of and I have one. Standard output of cd players is about 2 volts or ... | |
| Is ebay feedback worth anything on Audiogon? If it's under the same username then I like to know about it if the person here has little feedback. It helps. My Ebay feedback is 260 and I use the same username at all sites so everybody will know it's me. I've not had any significant problem on... | |
| Marantz SA8260 Direct to Amp The closest you could come is with a passive unit. Don't try it otherwise as you're likely going to blow some speakers. | |
| Pass X-series preamp with Adcom GFA-5802 amp? I had a Marsh A400s and would also choose it over the Adcom. Excellent amp if your speakers don't dip much below 4 ohms. | |
| Where can I start to improve my sound the most 2ch Room acoustics is very important. It will make more difference than cd players, wire or any ss electronics. Without good acoustics you're not hearing your system as well as it could sound and this is commonly quite an ear opener. For the money it'... | |
| It's the middle of summer and I need a... Recently I purchased an Innersound ESL 300 to replace a Parasound HCA 3500. Not only does the Innersound run cool it sounds much better. Plus it only weighs half as much and is much smaller with essentially the same power as the 3500. Btw the Inne... | |
| Seeking Recomendations for -1000.00 amp Marsh A400s. | |
| ADCOM GFA 555-II distortion alert? Be sure there's plenty of ventilation so it can't over heat.If it's in the same place it's always been and you haven't changed anything then the tech guy is where to go. | |
| Best vintage receivers for FM? A modded vintage tuner can be absolute outstanding and cost is little compared to what you can spend for much less. A modded Kenwood Kt 7500 I have amazes me still after two years. You can also go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FMtuners/These g... | |
| Good/great preamp with ht pass through? Thoughts? Krell KRC-3 and ARC LS 16. | |
| Do unpowered Subwoofers/Speaker effect room modes? Ditto, if you want better sound try some Monsoon speakers and a sub. Personally I have an old Marantz receiver and Sennheiser headphones for my computer. No room modes here. | |
| Room size and Dunlavy SCIV/A I like the way they sound too, quite a bit. Presently I'm using Vmps RM 40's, which are large, in a 12x17 room. The room is LEDE(live end dead end) with bass traps and although the speakers are large the sound is wonderful. Best I've heard. If I w... |
