| Subwoofer for Raidho XT-1 sadly buried in a console built in? @mijostyn What are your thoughts on the Quad Z2 ribbon bookshelf. These looks like it can be placed on a bookshelf too, though I would use stands. | |

| Subwoofer for Raidho XT-1 sadly buried in a console built in? BTW - your thread on finding bookshelf speakers made me think about my goal of upgrading my 10-year-old KEF LS50s. I am thinking of the following - Yamaha NS3000 (from Canada only) - Paradigm PersonaB - Raidho XT-1 (never heard this one) - TAD... | |
| Subwoofer for Raidho XT-1 sadly buried in a console built in? I have a KEF KC62 sub and it maybe excellent. I do not have too much experience with subs to compare. In a few hours I will getting delivery of the $200 KEF wireless transmitter for the sub. It is supposed to be excellent and it will allow me to o... | |
| When a budget speaker is preferred to a high end one... I think I am about to test the OP’s theory out soon with this speaker. SIERRA-2EX PAIR - Ascend Acoustics I was planning to replace my 10-year-old KEF LS50’s with a bookshelf speaker around $10K USD. However, the speaker listed above has a drive... | |
| Looking for a preamp with XLR connections LA4 is AES48 compliant. | |
| Bookshelf speakers on a bookshelf (Sad) Magico A1 maybe doable in a bookshelf. The Vivd S12 are also another that should also work. The Focal Kanta lineup maybe another that may work. I would also look at the KEF LS60 and sell all the other gear. It is only as wide as an iPhone and con... | |
| Looking for a preamp with XLR connections That BAT VK-42se was a fav or mine. It is very warm, but at the time I had it, I need a very warm preamp. A SS fully balanced preamp. | |
| Looking for a preamp with XLR connections The Freya+ is NOT noisy. I owned it and I also owned 2 of the quietest preamps in the world, the Topping pre90 and the Benchmark LA4 + HPA4. I currently, only have the LA4 and the CODA 07x in the house. Both the LA4 and 07x have XLR inputs (2 eac... | |
| The Good Stuff Life on Planet Grove - Maceo Parker This live performance is on fire. James Brown is the obvious similarity, but I was also thinking Earth, Wind, and Fire. | |
| Amps for KEF Blade 2 I have heard the T+A HV gear that he is referring too. It is warmer than the Hegel gear. More like my KRELL XD amp but with more power. I heard it with Wilson top end speakers. It sounded great. I bought a second Benchmark AHB2 for 1 on my system... | |
| My last Integrated Amp: $5-10,000? If you want more of the class A smooth sound, then go with a KRELL K-300i over the CSiB. I owned both, including CSiB V1. I ended up with CODA and KRELL separates because I liked the K-300i and CSiB a lot. I also thought the older ML 585 was b... | |
| Krell anticipator circuits of the 1990s @jaytor The type of iBias described by the WestministerLab designer seems to me different than what KRELL seems to be saying with the new iBias XD amps. I am under the impression that the new KRELL stays in Class A all the time. I was going to ema... | |
| Krell anticipator circuits of the 1990s If anyone is interested. I re-read the thread I posted earlier about WestminsterLab They also have an iBias system similar to the KRELL XD. The designer of those amps explained how the iBias predicts the needed power. His amps go into Class AB ... | |
| Chord DAVE DAC Point is I would think long and hard about dropping $14k on a DAC. If there is any category that is not mature it is DACs. I also do not feel comfortable dropping 14K on DAC's but for the opposite reason. I think the DAC market has really grow... |
