LS50s on desktop. What stand/base? IsoAcoustics are also what I use for both my KEF LS50 (passive) and KEF 3000A (active). It sounds better than directly on the desk. I have the LS50 stands on a 60’ long desk. | |
Blade 2, Sabrina, Fact 12, Sopra 2 or Scala ? Out here in Southern California I have had the opportunity to hear most of the speakers you have listed. I liked the Focal quite a bit but the best of the bunch for me was the Blades. I have not heard the Blade2 (only the big brother) but it looks... | |
Resonessence Mirus Pro DAC review I heard the previous model at THE SHOW in L.A. playing directly into some 20 year amp. The amp was nothing fancy and was purposely chosen my Resonessence to show how good the DAC was playing on a so-so amp. I loved the sound it was the best DAC ... | |
Best speakers under $500? Fire away! KEF X300A can be had on Amazon for $500. I bought a pair and it is OK for the bedroom system. | |
Paradigm Personas: A First Listen Audiotroy,Thanks for your detailed response. I can see you are a fan of audio. I will take you up on your invite to listen to the 2 speakers I am interested in. I will be doing this when I have cash in the bank to buy. It has been a long time sinc... | |
Paradigm Personas: A First Listen Thanks Audio Doctor + staff for the commentary here. It was well received by me and it showed me that you guys have similar thinking to me. I think I will fly to NY and visit your store when I am ready to buy my new system. I have been trying to ... | |
Paradigm Speakers Hi AudioDoctor,If I am not mistaken, i believe you guys carry the KEF Blade(2). If so, would you care to provide a comparison between the Blade2 and the similarly priced speaker in the Persona line. | |
April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm! I am hoping that someone will do a comparison between the KEF Blade 2 and the equivalent model in the Persona line. | |
Kef/Revel bookshelf choice with amp selection help needed please http://www.digitalaudioreview.net/2016/12/kef-ls50-wireless-review-dars-product-of-the-year-2016/Just read this review and I am now seriously questioning whether to go with the Benchmark amp (for my Benchmark DAC2) or just sell my passive LS50 and... | |
Kef/Revel bookshelf choice with amp selection help needed please I like my KEF LS50 over my previous Revel Salon1 on the higher frequencies (bass was phenomenal on the Salon). So I would choose the KEF over Revel.I am using a Parasound A23 that I got from eBay for $500 with my KEF LS50 and it WAS a very good ma... | |
Looking for SACD player............ I have a Sony SCD-1 with Richard Kern mods gathering dust in storage. If you are interested send me a message. | |
Recos for entry level Bookshelf speaker $400-750 for 21yo nieces first system? Amazon is selling the KEF X300A (which includes a DAC + 2 amps for each speaker) for $599.98. It is pretty good for the desktop. I have had the KEF LS50 on the same desktop and that was definitely better but the cost of that system was close to $... | |
Putting together a system...looking for some suggestions Check out the new KEF ACTIVE LS50 for $2200 (out in Dec 2016). It will have a built-in DAC, amp, wireless streaming, and sub connectivity. You may find it is all you need. I have the PASSIVE LS50 and it is pretty good in a small room. I will never... | |
Does anyone have an opinion about the new P S Audio Bridge 2 ? +1 for the microRendu. Superb gear. Works so flawlessly and reliably with my Windows 10 ROON server and maybe dozen ROON clients. | |
PS Audio DirectStream network bridge If I had the DS I would use the Sonnare MicroRendu with ROON and TIDAL instead of the PS Audio Bridge II. I use that combo (minus the DS) with a Benchmark DAC2. One day the Benchmark goes into my office and a DS goes to where the Benchmark current... |
