| Integrated amplifier recommendations, Please Mtpockets1311,I do agree with Sfar's suggestion of the Onkyo A-9555 being a nice amp but I think there are some good economical choices from NAD.For $195.00,you can't go wrong.http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?intatran&1299144677&/NAD... | |
| Opinion of Klipsch speakers Spydermonkee,I am not sure what your question is but I'll give my best imput. The RF-25 and RC-25 are part of Klipsch's Reference III series. The RF-25's have (2)6.5 inch woofers and 1 inch tweeters and the RC-25 has (2)5.25 inch woofers and a 1 i... | |
| Klipsch forte II what league are they in? Blkadr,Congrats on the Forte II's. I changed out my diaphragms in my Forte's to the Crites Tites and really enjoy the higher extension and detail. Huge bang for the buck mod.Just scored a mint pair of Quartet's in oak oil for $100.00. Christmas ca... | |

| I need some CD player suggestions please Here is a great CD player for little $$$. The Onkyo DX-7555's build quality is very good and as the phrase suggests, "a giant killer".Wolfson WM8740 DACs. No affiliation.http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?dgtlplay&1297851762&/Onkyo-DX-... | |
| Marantz as a preamp? Ds4000,Vintage Marantz receivers make great preamps. IMO. I have used my Marantz 2252B with Marantz MA-500/MA-700 monoblocks, B&K EX4420, NAD 925THX, and an Acurus A150, all with great results. All these setups have powered Klipsch Heresy's, Q... | |
| Buy new integrated or vintage? I have to agree with Knownothing's suggestion of the NAD C375BEE integrated. Very difficult to duplicate it's performance for such a reasonable amount of $$$. More powerful than ratings suggest with tons of punch and detail.I am very surprized tha... | |
| Klipsch Quartet: Suggestions for Setup & Pairing I just picked up a mint pair of oak oil Quartet's yesterday and hooked them up to my early 90's Denon PMA-1080R integrated amp. In my setup the bass is fast, deep and controlled. I have them very near the corners of the room toed in about 8 degree... | |
| Full-range/horn loaded on a budget? I am a huge Klipsch fan and could suggest plenty of models for your needs and budget. I have a pair of RF-63's($2000.00/pair msrp) in natural cherry that are the smoothest 2-way speakers I have ever heard. Plenty of bass with very detailed mids an... | |
| Which amp for Marantz Av7005/ B&W 680 speakers Have you thought of going used and specifically B&K amps. It seems like some are prematurely dumping their B&K gear due to their bankruptsy and subsequently being bought out by ATI. Some really good amps on the used market right now. Here ... | |
| Man between two eras I have vintage 70's Marantz(2252B), 80's/90's Denon(PMA-1080R), 90's Onkyo Integra(A-9711). All are very musical with the Marantz being on the warm side and the Denon and Onkyo Integra on the neutral/warm side. If all conditions are equal, I like ... | |
| DTS HD via Multi Analog vs DTS via Bistream Huge difference. I had my NAD T773 receiver hooked up to my BD player with digital coax and it sounded better than my Onkyo TX-SR705 hooked up the same way. I then purchased a BD player with 7.1 analog outputs and hooked it up to my NAD receiver a... | |
| Amp suggestions please...need some power You can't go wrong with monoblocks. Here is a pair of B&K 200.1 monoblocks for $1500.00/pair. One of the better bang for the buck monoblocks available. No affiliation with ad. Very potent amp with warm/neutral characteristics.http://www.audiog... | |
| Need a speaker for the blues lover... Consider the used market and find a pair of Klipsch Forte's/Forte II's or Chorus/Chorus II's. Either model will provide great blues/jazz/rock listening especially with your McIntosh/Marantz combo. $300.00 to $700.00 is the norm these days used in ... |
