| Magnepan 1.7 Tweeter issue ... Magnepan is a pretty reputable company. I would give them a call. I've seen many times where a good audio company will cover something even though its out of warranty. You have nothing to loose. | |
| Aleph 3 - Its 2013, are they still awesome ? I got really good results with ProAc. I think DeVore would be worth looking into, as well. Even though the amp is only 30 watts, its a very clean 30 watts. You won't have any problems finding a speaker to go with it. | |
| Odyssey Khartago and Vandersteen 2 In my opinion, the best solid state option for Vandersteen is Ayre. There are other good matches, as well, but I like Ayre the best. You should have no problems driving the 2's with the Ayre 7 as long as you don't have a really big room. As for th... | |
| verity audio fidelio Does your amp sound like its straining? | |
| Am I totally nuts or just a bit off? "Sure seemed to me that mono was way cool especially in the LOW listening fatigue factor. Going on a Goodwill road trip next week-LOL,"When something is new its easy to overlook flaws. It happens all the time with equipment purchases. Sometime you... | |
| Odyssey Khartago and Vandersteen 2 You may want to look into having your 2's upgraded to Signature 1 status. (Its not possible to upgrade to Sig 2.) I have the Sig 2's but have owned the sig1's as well and the difference is not that big. They easily compete with speakers that cost ... | |
| Similar sounding of Lyra cartridge ? "07-20-13: Wc65mustangBad information from Zd.Shelters have little in common sonically with Lyra.I suggest he listen before posting."I as going under the assumption the OP is looking for similar performance, not exact. Maybe you just didn't have i... | |
| McIntosh D100 variable vs fixed outs soundstage I think you did a really good job in figuring all this out for yourself. Trust the results you came up with. Trading the 6300 in for a preamp seems like a pretty safe bet. It makes sense. | |
| Aleph 3 - Its 2013, are they still awesome ? No. But its still pretty good. If you can, find an Aleph 0. Its much better than the 3 and the 5. | |
| If you solicit offers, shouldn't you respond? Don't take it personally, move on, and buy something else. By the way, what were you looking for... | |
| Odyssey Khartago and Vandersteen 2 What version of the 2's do you have? | |
| Conrad Johnson Upgrades - A difference maker? The upgrade may make sense for you. The 12's, in their stock form, are very laid back. Much more so than a 60SE, or even a 55. An 11a is probably the closest in sound. Doing the caps may quicken the sound a bit, but I don't think thats such a bad ... | |
| What should I upgrade first amp or preamp? I agree with Ejlif. A new preamp would be a better choice over a new amp. Looking at your system, though, I think your weakest component is the Oppo. Both your amp and preamp are 0 feedback, fully balanced designs. Take advantage of those features... | |
| Similar sounding of Lyra cartridge ? Its a difficult question to answer. Maybe Shelter or DV. | |
| Marantz - SA-15S2B or Yamaha CD-S2000 or iPod Nonoise,Thanks. That's exactly what I wanted to know. |
