| Best Sounding Ribbon Speakers Don’t forget about Eminent Technologie. | |
| Magnepan “X” upgrade program This still seems very high to me. I mean how many capacitors and coils do they have, several hundred? Even adding wire and connections, they are not adding 100 feet of wire. | |
| Magnepan LRS+ which amps do you use ? * 100 watts or less ** Funny, when I spoke to I believe it was Erik from Magnepan regarding suitable amps for Magnepan he told me you won’t be able to drive Magnepans with a 30 watt Pass Labs. | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal I had a free trial with Tidal for a while, it was quite good but cost more than Qobuz. I ended up signing up with Qobuz for a year. Qobuz is ok but could be better. For starters they do not have as many titles available. Also the search leaves a... | |
| Magnepan “X” upgrade program I’m curious as what they could be upgrading as to almost double the cost of the speaker? | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers The thing is it’s fine to spend 50k or more on speakers IF it is in your budget, not everyone can afford that. So people tend to look for best bang for buck. It’s not necessarily that someone is looking for a $5-$10k speaker that would blow away $... | |
| Eversolo DMP -A8 Server,Dac, Streamer,Preamp - best bang for the Buck Does anyone know if you can set the high pass filter on the analog XLR and RCA output’s separately on the A8. So as to run the XLR to the amp and main speakers at 80 hz for example but run the subwoofer from the RCA full range? | |
| Magnepan LRS+ which amps do you use ? * 100 watts or less ** I am using a Peachtree Gan 400 for my LRS, 400 watts into 8 and 4 ohms. | |
| Streamer Upgrade Bluesound Node To Aurender N10 I am streaming the Node into the dac of a Oppo 205 universal player directly into a Peachtree Audio Gan 400 amp and currently using Magnepan LRS speakers and a subwoofer. The system is quite revealing as far as changes in cables and different reco... | |
| Streamer Upgrade Bluesound Node To Aurender N10 I have the latest Bluesound Node, I run an Ethernet cable direct to it and use it as a streamer only, via coax into my dac. I am hard pressed to find much difference between streaming vs the same music off the actual CD. It’s like six of one, hal... | |
| Krell KSA 300S or FPB 300? Back in the day, the only amps recommended for driving Apogee speakers were either Krell or Threshold. Should not be a problem for the Krell 300s. | |
| Sound Quality of Cables Used With Bluesound Node I prefer the coax connection, that being said though certain coax cables sound better than others. I am using Audioquest cinnamon and like it quite well. | |
| Integrated amp recommendation for Maggie .7's For a budget of less than $5k, unless you run into a wicked deal on a good quality class A/AB amp, I would consider a decent class D amp. Preferably something that can put out at least 350-400 watts into 4 ohms. I run my LRS with a Peachtree Audi... | |
| Tri-Art Audio Open 5 open, baffle speaker. I heard the open 5 speakers a couple of weeks ago we have a dealer here in Winnipeg, $6900. I also heard the open 3 as well, very impressive 3d soundstage. Very impressive speakers for the money, almost have a Magnepan type of sound. Except they... | |
| Annoying newbie CD/SACD player question I have not heard it mentioned but I assume this player/transport will not process SACD surround recordings? |
