| Accuphase E470 v. Luxman L509x @melbguyoneCan you list some of the integrated amps you like? | |
| Ayre AX7e vs Hegel H160 "But given that streaming from iPhones and other mobile devices seems to be more of the current thing,"If you are going to stream music from an iPhone then I highly recommend the Peachtree Nova 150. Should be similar or cheaper price to the 2 unit... | |
| Ayre AX7e vs Hegel H160 I do not know too much about Ayre. I do know Hegel and they make gear that pulls above their weight. The DACs are also well regarded. | |
| Best amp for KEF LS50 I see I have commented on this thread in the past so I thought I would update.1) Paraound A23 + LS50 : I thought this was good combo but easily bettered by the next 2 amps I bought.2) Second best was Peachtree Nova 150 + LS50. Lot of details, not ... | |
| Luxman m-900u owners - quick question There is a lot of discussion on the Luxman m900u on this thread.https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/my-long-list-of-amplifiers-and-my-personal-review-of-each | |
| Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK... @alexb76You mention that the A3 could fit anywhere. How about a very small room such as 13 x 12? | |
| Integrated Amp to match with Magico A3 Give the Hegel a try, If Magico is demoing the A3 with Hegel and talking about the Hegel in multiple audio web sites it makes sense to have your ears on the Hegel/A3 combo. Though I would wait until Sept 2018 for the Hegel H590. | |
| Monitor Audio PL200II I got a response from a dealer that respresents Monitor Audio in Los Angeles. Unfortunately they do not have a show room but can order them. They responded to my question about room size with the following:"The ideal room volume for these speakers... | |
| Monitor Audio PL200II Thanks for the responses. I never knew about Gene Rubin Audio in Ventura. I will check them out for the Harbeth and Spendor at that shop. I had forgotten that my buddy played the D7's for me in a smallish room and it sounded great. More of the ful... | |
| Integrated Amp to match with Magico A3 Hegel H590 is coming out in a few months and it is Hegel's version of a super integrated. Take a look at the video located on the bottom of the following linked page.https://darko.audio/2018/05/statement-made-hegel-debut-h590-with-kef-blade/Alon W... | |
| Bel Canto ACI600 vs Black EX Sepates If I had the cash ready today I would be severely tempted to buy the Luxman 509x that WC put up for sale. I would use it in the office and likely move my office electronics to the future big rig in the living room.https://www.audiogon.com/listings... | |
| Bel Canto ACI600 vs Black EX Sepates I thought the wife did not like the looks of the Hegel? I think the new Hegel will be a dark horse in the new crop of high end integrateds. Lots of people rave about the Hegel DACs. I assume the H590 will have this highly regarded DAC technology.A... | |
| Bel Canto ACI600 vs Black EX Sepates Are you going to have an audition with any of those units? They are rather different tech from most gear so I would definitely want to have a listen first. A few years ago the 50K Black system was listed here for around 28K by a dealer. Customer t... | |
| Thinking of Kef Blade 2 to replace Revel Salon 2 @ricred1 Your room is big enough for the Blade 1. I have heard this speaker in a room as big as yours and it just blows my socks off. I have not heard the Blade 2 yet.@audiotroy I know you love the T+A. How does it sound at low volume? Does it nee... | |
| Thinking of Kef Blade 2 to replace Revel Salon 2 @ricred1 . I have heard some dealers say that diff is only in the amount of bass and the room size should be the determining factor.A reviewer that reviewed the Blade 2 and has heard the Blade 1 emailed me back that he would get the Blade 2 over t... |
