Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Rischa,I have used a 18 wpc SET amp with the Lore's with great results. The Lore is a very efficient speaker that works well with very low wattage. Gpowered is using an 8 wpc SET with great results.If you have a large room, maybe you'll need the e... | |
Sub wolfer advice Why not go from the amp to your sub and from your amp to your speakers? (bi-wired) Much better than from the sub to the speakers. | |
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Goraman, it seems you are the only one that is complaining about sibilance. It seems that there may be something upstream that is causing the problem. I also disagree with the fact that cables make a small difference. Cables could be your problem.... | |
Where to put my new power cable? If you go from the conditioner to the wall it will give the sonic signature to the front end component. But you're right.... only trying it is the true answer. | |
Almarro A318B/Cary 300 SE Signature Amps I've used the Sophia 6SN7 and 6SL7 in my Almarro A318B amp.They are good, but I tried the Black Treasure CV181 and it is better in all aspects on the 6SN7 side. On the 6SL7 I went with a Mullard ECC35 and have yet to find a better combination on t... | |

Will my amp have enough juice for the Gallo 3.1s? 3.1's need more than 36wpc to be driven correctly. They'll make music... but they wont do what they do best with that amp. 3.5's will, but not the 3.1's. | |
The best CD Player for the money Not going to happen. | |
best power cable for vac I highly recommend Elrod Signature EPS. I have the Elrod Signature EPS 2 and love it. The EPS 3 might be a better choice and used are around $500. Very neutral with tons of energy and attack. | |
I need speakers for low volume listening - Triangle and Reference 3A's are both excellent for low level listening. | |
Speaker Burn In? The speaker needs to be driven to break in. White noise is ok for caps and cables, but for speakers you need to drive them to break them in. | |
Speaker Burn In? It 's up to what you want. Do you want the fastest burn-in to get the chore behind you? Or do you want to have the experience of hearing the change and enjoying the speakers at the same time. If you want the fast way, take them to the garage or sh... | |
Need Help Choosing Good Value Used Speaker $2,000 All the speakers mentioned are very good. I heard a pair of JM Labs Electra floor standers that really sounded great. I was highly impressed. Used, they fall in your price range. |
