| Small integrateds: red wine, bel canto or wyred? I have heard the Red Wine 15 in two different systems and was very disapointed. The amp has no dynamics or trancient attack at all. Very boring to say the least.The very opposite of the reason in owning the Lore s speaker. They do have a 30 day tr... | |
| Correct way to burn in a new CD/SACD player Foster is correct. No need to turn on the pre or integrated. | |
| Breaking in speaker cables?? Sorry B-limo, you have to have some resistance hooked up to do a burn in. You can use an 8ohn resistor with 300 to 500watts. The resistor will get very hot so make sure that it's not touching anything that is vulnerable to heat.Hope this helps. | |
| Power cable for Pass Labs 250.5 I would recommend trying an Elrod Signature EPS-3 for your amp.They're the best I have found for that application.You can pick one up used here on AGon for around $500-$600.Good luck. | |

| The most dynamic speaker you've heard... Rrog, the most dynamics is the question. Realistic or bigger than life, the most is the most. | |
| Amplifier for Tekton speakers Finsup,The Red Wine was so lifeless in my friends system that he had to bring it to mine to make sure of what he was hearing was correct.Once put in my system, it just confirmed that the amp has no liveliness. No dynamics, no attack. His other amp... | |
| Amplifier for Tekton speakers The Lore does have a cross-over. | |
| Amplifier for Tekton speakers I've auditioned the Signature 15 in my system and a fellow audiophiles system and was very dissapointed. I almost emailed Srajan Ebaen to ask him what he was thinking.It has no attack or liveliness at all. Very boring to listen to. It had nice ton... | |
| Gallo Stradas vs. Merlin TSM-MXRs Both of these speakers are very good. If you want absolute invisable speakers as far as imaging goes, then the Gallos are hard to beat. Man.... This is a tough one, they're both really good speakers. | |
