| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions I was quoting some reps in the rooms...not me. I dont agree either. I had some very nice sounding cds with me which I was told were thin, overly compressed, etc etc. One dude(me)with some cds...trying to tell a guy with a room full of hi end gear ... | |
| Do true audiophiles own Mcintosh gear I dont think Taters was asking for a definition of the term "audiophile"...missing his point entirely..... | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions Agisthos....ive come to believe your right on hi-fi gear and trust your advice. I did have some metal cds with me at the Rocky Mountain Audio show last year, and the few rooms that obliged me...once I got past the rolled eyes and how "horribly rec... | |
| Do true audiophiles own Mcintosh gear LOL...:) | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions The Rotel has arrived. First impression...this thing rocks. Snappy is a good word, forward, very clear, but not overly bright. Only tried it with my Kenwoods (they are closer to the front door..:)) and id say its slightly less dimensional then the... | |
| Do true audiophiles own Mcintosh gear My question is do true metal heads own mac gear.....? | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions Greg, interesting, particularly on sound levels. It certainly was not what i'd consider loud, and trying to make it "rock" only increased fatigue and distortion. Dave, I have to smile at your post. Past all the technical this or that, my gut has t... | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions Appreciate the advice. Its really eating at me just "why" the combo didnt work for me, so that helps...but yet on paper (and ive read the "trust your ears not the specs" advice) it should be a good match. The Stingray is optimized for a 5 ohm load... | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions I just picked up a Rotel 1062, yes a "downgrade" as I keep being told. But we'll see what it does with my Dalis. | |
| Build location for tube integrateds Steidlguitars, interesting view. Based on what ive been through so far id say your on the money. The speaker choice is not only critical to match to the amp, but also to match to your type of music. My tube setup, while not necessarily bad, in fac... | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions Thanks for the advice At. No..they didnt inspire which does tell me something, but what other than I didnt like them? Would the Stingray rock with a different speaker? Would the Dalis sound better with more power?....lots of variables. How do you ... | |
| Build location for tube integrateds I just lived with a Stingray for a year, (see the "tube amp for rock" post) I'm no expert....and im still sorting through it....but if I had to put my finger on what I grew to dislike.....it would be power. Prior to I lived with a 200W receiver fo... | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions To refresh this post. I ended up going with the Stingray and the Dali Royal towers, ive had them for a year now. Initially I was quite pleased, but over time found myself listening less and less, and each session being shorter and shorter (fatigui... | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions My mistake, I thought the Cronus was more comparable to the Stingray at the $2200-2300 range. |
