| Speaker Hiss with Krell Amp Do you hear the hiss with only the Krell amp in the chain? If not the cables it could be a pre or source. To me if the hiss is common in an amp of that caliber I would pass on it especially if a super low noise floor is what you're after. With eit... | |
| Scansonic mb serie " I'm really concerned that these things sound so bad out of the box that people are giving up on them almost immediately and selling them." I'll admit they don't sound all that great out of the box and need 2 -300 hrs to really open up. The lo... | |
| should i go with kt150's now or wait a bit?? I heard about the KT-180's over 2 years ago. Still waiting. | |
| Back to it - Practical speaker upgrade Make sure you listen to a lot of different combo's before purchasing anything. Take note how the speakers are positioned and see if that will work in your room. Example: Dynaudio needs little to no toe in and can be placed pretty close where Raidh... | |
| Back to it - Practical speaker upgrade braudio7 - Let me get this straight. Either improve your existing system or add a second system? If so that's a question only you can answer but I at one time thought I would go with a small second system. The more I thought about it I decided to ... | |
| Sim audio moon i3 "The owners manual says the volume is attenuated to smaller increments below 35 on the dial." I think that has to do for compensation for super efficient speakers (100db +). With those speakers you'll have more control of the listening level. I ... | |

| top 25 speakers of all time, no ribbons? @alfau7 What is your opinion? Personally I think the Scansonic and Raidho ribbon is much better than any dome tweeter I've ever heard. Although 4 years ago when I owned Dyn C1's I thought the Esotar2 was the best. | |
| what are the tradeoff for these cables? @phillip IMO the same power cord or any cable for that matter will most likely sound different if you put them in 3 different systems. I have Ansuz Ceramic power and speaker cables (more open and lifelike sounding) and a Nordost Heimdall2 digital ... | |
| Tube Integrated Amp - Help Please Pre owned Octave V70se or V110. Built like a tank and some great protection features in the event an output tube fails. If you want an even lower noise floor and a bit more headroom add a black or super black box. I had both and the V110 has a bit... | |
| Raidho D1's and recommendations for amplifiers @kin You have D1.1's? Did you compare them them to the D1's? If so what differences in SQ are there? | |
| Powerful, smallish floorstanders with high WAF? First thing you have to hear the speakers yourself. What price range are you considering? Check out the Scansonic MB 3.5's. They are about 5" taller but about 2" narrower. Just make sure if you do hear them that are broken in. They don't sound all... | |
| Raidho just announced new D .1 models ’Raidho just updated their line...again,lol’Should Raidho just sit on the sidelines and not improve on their products???? The Diamond series have been out for over 3 years. http://www.raidho.dk/homeNotice the year at the bottom of the link | |
| AC Line Problems bkdou812 Have you considered an on-line uninterruptible power supply? On-line means you run off of the batteries all the time. Line interactive means you go to battery only when it senses a power failure. When I had my Octave V110 tube integrated ... |
