Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @dorkwad I have heard good things about the Modwright, but am not familiar with them otherwise. There is an integrated on USAudiomart for $2750. | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @jsautter The 190 would definitely be powerful enough, but I don't want to shortchange myself on power and regret it later. The McIntosh I am using is technically only rated at 50 watts(even though I think it is more like 75) and it does very wel... | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @geof3 I like Peachtree's products and enjoyed the 220(which i still own), but it definitely does not sound as good as my separates.The Classe 2200i is appealing for the reasons you listed. I am still considering it.My current thoughts are Hegel ... | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @rbstehno I have looked at the Rogue in the past, but I am staying SS this go round. I don't need a ton of power and I have read somewhere that the H190 sounded better than the H360(wattage excluded.) Maybe because it is a newer line? | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @bjesien I seemed to recall several people singing their praises in the past, but I wasn't looking at the time. Now, I agree, I'm not hearing anyone on the bandwagon now! It is more difficult because I don't have local dealers for most of the go... | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @willgolf I think I am going to go SS this go round. My speakers are not too efficient. I have a friend that is in the process of starting a transformer business and I may build a beefy tube amp in the future. The Ravens do like nice though. | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @coffee-jerk Over the last 24 hours I have been doing a lot more research into the Hegel amps. I really like what I am seeing. Definitely on the short list. | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @yyzsantabarbara I have enough to pay for the Hegel if I sold all of my spare stuff, but I'm sure it will take some time. The 390 looks great, I like the feature set. | |
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated sfseay, thanks for the input. I hadn't looked at the M10, I do like the looks. I will look into the 2200i more as well.greg, You think there is a big difference in the 220 and 300? i assumed they were fairly similar. The Orchid definitely soun... | |
$1300-1500 DAC Nice deal! I am late to the thread, but I really love my MHDT Labs Orchid as well. Definitely worth checking out for anyone reading the thread later. I am typically a value shopper and look for great used deals, but at $1100, I purchased it new... | |
Standmount speakers. I have $5000. As tbomb mentioned, the Adante are a remarkable deal right now. One of my friends just picked up a pair. My room is smaller than yours, but been happy with my 805's for a couple of years. | |
Carver, THE standard of excellence IMO I have several older Carver amps that I love. I have been considering a Crimson, they seem to be a great bargain. Most of the posts on this thread have reinforced that thought. | |
SET amplifier recommendation You have gotten plenty of input, but I thought I would chime in because I have 805's and have hooked them to many different amps. The sensitivity is definitely an issue. I have had them hooked to even some higher power tube amps(not SET) like Ca... | |
3 great tube preamps. Which would you purchase? The ZOTL does indeed thump, which I am not a fan of. Just have to turn it on first. | |
3 great tube preamps. Which would you purchase? I was running a Peachtree Nova 220SE that I really liked. I also have a sub optimal room and my listening position is near field which has always caused issues with sounndstage. I just replaced the Peachtree with a microZOTL and it really is an ... |
