| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... another question about the ART9- my tonearm mass is 10.1g which would yield an 18.6g effective mass with the ART 9.using the 1.5X conversion of compliance @ 100 Hz (18 for the ART 9) yields ~ 27 dynamic compliance @ 10Hz. This results in ~ 7Hz res... | |
| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... I am very curious about this cart. I have heard the AT150ANV and I actually prefer my Ortofon 2M Black. The AT150ANV is now selling for ~ $1500. How is the ~ $1K ART 9 going to sound better? | |
| Mellow speakers Below most audiophile's radar (and well below their budgets, usually) are the Paradigm Monitor 11 (latest version ~ 1600 / pair). The (3) 6-3/4" woofers produce prodigious bass in an efficient package and are the default recommendation for those ... | |
| Need Small Bookshelf Speakers With a Big Sound The ELAC UB5s will deliver what you are looking for. Incredible bass capability in a neutral, detailed sound. They will need power though- a good hefty 100WPC. @kalali- I have heard the JA Pulsars and without hesitation they are the best speak... | |
| Tube Amp vs Solid State Amp HELP definitely a tube amp with the dalis so you can tube roll to take the edge off of the treble. | |
| Looking For A Subwoofer JL Audio D108. Sounds musical because it has a flat usable frequency response and is not a one note wonder. Also has all the features needed for perfect integration including a continuous phase angle adjustment and speaker level inputs. | |
| Advice on speaker pairing with my Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum using KT120 output tubes. Harbeth C7ES3. Perfection with the Rogue and some judicious small signal NOS tube upgrades. | |
| What Did I Do Wrong? almost a year ago- but do you still have the El34s in the cronus mag? I would like to try this also, thanks. | |
| Subwoofer hunt JL subs are bulletproof and easy to integrate because of the adjustments available including continuous phase. They also have flat frequency responses which also makes them music worthy because the avoid frequency peaks- one note wonder syndrome ... | |
| Raven Audio Tube amps i had the nighthawk and blackhawk and each delivered an extraordinary high end sound quality. | |
| Which integrated amp would you pick? in this range a raven audio blackhawk or rogue cronus magnum ii with tube upgrades sounds much more transparent and dimensional than the halo. | |
| Which integrated amp would you pick? The halo is really nice sounding- could not find anything wrong that it did. also class A stereophile. sounds much better than a hegel h160 IMHO. | |
| Cronus Mag 2 v. Line Magnetic 501 IA The CM II sounds worlds better with 5 NOS small signal tubes- e.g. RCA, Amperex, Sylvania. | |
| The best separates between $2500-3000. Moving on from the original Rogue Sphinx Intg.. The Pharaoh sounds much better than the Sphinx. I could not tolerate the edge to the Sphinx sound. The Pharaoh has gobs of power and just does not stop. The bass drive and control is extreme. | |
| Looking for an upgrate from Cronus Magnum you guys with experience with the pharaoh- do you think it gives up anything in sound quality to the CM? does it have a sound signature? what type of speakers pair best with it? thanks. |
