| Thiel Owners @jafant I heard the Bryston 4B3 + BP17 Cubed with Vandersteen a few weeks ago at a very high end shop. Being a previous Bryston owner I am familiar with the sound. The top end was definitely less harsh and the sound and soundstage was similar to t... | |
| Bryston unauthorised dealers I believe the way it works is someone who is an authorized dealer sells online via a friend or themselves using a different base address from the store.If you investigate around A'gon u can put the pieces together.I surprised Bryston has not shut ... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. @skyscraper Some lucky person bought the ML 585 I have mentioned a few times so that item is no longer listed. It was listed at $6400 used. Now the more recent links I have posted are for the new ML 5000 series integrated that have slightly less p... | |

| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. @skyscrapper send me a direct message if you want to walk with me on the A3. I am buying this myself and have figured out what the best power options 1, 2, 3, 4 etc are for them (my opinion). Some of these posts can get you confused. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. @skyscrapper Make sure whatever you choose the amp section of the integrated has enough power for the A3. These speakers require power. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. @skyscraperThis is a not an answer to your question but some info I gathered with the Magico A3. A long story short, after some time demoing the A3 and then doing more research on amplification I have decided to get the Magico A3 powered by the Ma... | |
| Sony SCD-1 Output option - Custom vs Standard @junzhang10 My player so far does not have the detail retrieval of the computer system I use (with microRendu). However, the SCD-1 sounds real nice and I am thoroughly enjoying the tunes. Hopefully I can get 10 more years of use. I think my mods ... | |
| Preamp Advice for my System I owned the BAT 42KSE and thought it was a real fine unit. I did not find it laid back as you are describing it. I was using it with Bryston 7B-SST and the speakers were Thiel SCS4 and previously Revel Salon1. Maybe you should check out a differen... | |
| Luxman L-509X for ATC SCM 19v2/40v2, thinking integrated to start with I heard the Mark Levinson 585 yesterday and it was spectacular. There is one on A'gon for less than what you want to spend. I was always considering the Luxman 509x but I have not heard it. I may take a chance and buy the Luxman without hearing fr... | |
| Advice for killer desktop speakers @mcanaday I am moving into a much bigger office space in 3 months so I went speaker shopping yesterday for a floor stander. I found one that I am going to buy, the Magico A3. I was planning on keeping the Audience 1+1 in the office loop to play at... | |
| TASH SULTANA Listened to Jungle and Blackbird yesterday with an expensive Mark Levinson + Magic A3 system. Wow, this girl can play. I am buying the A3 after that. | |
| Dynaudio Contour C60 or Magico A3 or Vandersteen Treo CT @yyzsantabarbara I did not get to Sunny's in time to hear Vandersteen give his talk or Audience give theirs. I was at another dealer, Brooks Berdan, engrossed with the Magico A3. I spent 4 hours there instead of the planned 2 hours.I did manage ... | |
| Dynaudio Contour C60 or Magico A3 or Vandersteen Treo CT Dynaudio introduced new drivers for the Contour line (I think it was this one) in the 2018 Munich show. These speakers may not be available yet but if I were in the market for Dynaudio I would want to check out those new drivers, since people were... | |
| Thiel Owners @sandydennis11 My fav speakers are #2 Thiel CS 3.7 and #1 KEF Blades. If you have the room those Blades would be an improvement from my side of the fence. |
