Speakers, speaker cables or I’m getting old…
Your amplifier and the speakers are great, but perhaps there is not the best synergy. I tried Pass labs 250.8 mono blocks with my Dynaudio Confidence 60 and they sounded very good, but I preferred my Accuphase A46 and Mcintosh Mc 611, and zero br... 
Accuphase Experiences
Accuphase is my favorite brand. Build quality, functionality and the sound is one of the best you can get. I own A46 with C2450, and I'm very happy. Recently I added E5000 and I can not believe how good it is. I think that all new integrated ampli... 
Safe and Sound Audio experience
Great people, excellent customer service. They have a large inventory in stock. I would definitely recommend doing business with them.  
Jm Lab Alto Utopia what kind of amplifier ?
Thank you Paul for your recommendations, I have tried Accuphase E560 and it was OK, but not really a good match. It actually sounded better with my Dali Helikon 300. I think that Utopia needs good tube amplification to shine.By the way I just noti... 
Jm Lab Alto Utopia what kind of amplifier ?
Brf Do you happen to know which Rowland should be a good match? 
Jm Lab Alto Utopia what kind of amplifier ?
I think you are right about tubes Atmasphere, I just have no experience with OTL amps and I'm not sure about the looks of Atmasphere amps. I wish I had a store nearby to listen to these. Thanks 
Sansui AU - 919 Thrift Store Find
Congratulations!You found a treasure.These are great sounding amplifiers.I just picked AU719 in excellent condition and I can't believe how good it is.It has power, clarity,3D sound-stage and very good mid-range.In my opinion it is hard to find so... 
Used Focal Alto Utopia or New Focal 1038BE
Hi Paul,Once again you are right about Focal Utopia.Today I audition both speakers and they are both good match for my Rega.Electra has more forward midrange and is faster, but Alto's are sweeter sounding to me.Good news is that the sound is cryst... 
Used Focal Alto Utopia or New Focal 1038BE
Thank you Gregm for your opinion.The new Utopia series is out of my price range for now. 
Conrad Johnson CA200 opinions welcome
I had one for a week and it is a fine sounding amplifier.It has a deep sound-stage,that is very enjoyable.The overall sound is very comfortable, no fatigue.It has a texture and I think it focuses more on the lower mid-range, so strings,choral musi... 
Accuphase E550 or E560?
Thank you, I had a chance to demo E560,it was good, but I was not impressed(it was almost brand new, so it maybe required break in) on my speakers.It sounded better on Adams speakers (powered woofers) in the showroom.I end up getting Rega Isis and... 
Has anyone heard Rega's Isis CDP?
I just purchased Rega Isis and Osiris combo and I think it is really special, very musical,almost analog sound (good turntable sound),zero digital glare,non fatiguing, relaxed but detailed at the same time.Instruments and voices have a texture tha... 
mcintosh ma 6600 vs rega osiris vs nad m2
I have Rega Isis and Osiris on demo at home now and to me it is an excellent sounding system.More than enough power,huge sound-stage,non fatiguing with silky midrange.Guitars and vocals never sounded better.I have to mention that part of this grea...
