| How many monthly kilowatt hours, including hi-fi, do you use? I’m a misor for power usage. This is good if electric blackouts become more frequent. My Pass XA25 manual says 240W at idle. 30 days would be about $30 if my math is right, I am getting older, and humble, so correct me if I'm wrong. | |
| Need a 4 way electronic crossover I have not seen mixed reviews for Marchand. Occasionally used ones come up for sale. New are 800 to 1000 approx. There is also a new brand that advertises quality parts used. The name escapes me. They have 2 models priced at $599 and $799. ... | |
| Thoughts? - First Watt F8 / Vandersteen Treo's I hope you don't have issues with the F8. More power is a lot more money. The F8 drops to 15 w 4ohms. | |
| Ethernet Cables - what are you using and why? I bought Blue Jeans cable Cat 6. 40 ft was $50 or so. | |
| Burning-in as a non-linear experience I have this happen every time I unhook wires or have to mess with the springs under my speakers. It takes a couple days. I have ribbon speaker wires and spades would not stay tight so I had new ends installed. In the mean time, I bought Chines... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Another good funky bunch is Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio. Hammond B3 anyone? | |
| Jazz for aficionados @stuartk Thanks I will check them out! | |
| Integrated for Cornwall IV It also depends how loud you play it. Cornwall are very efficient and are fast, dynamic, clear, bass authority, but subs help. A 25W Pass will drive them or Luxman or Sugden. The Pass integrated is pricy but excellent. I had an 20W Aegir and i... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Several New Mastersounds albums have some brass. Also, look under Eddie Roberts. Polyrhythmics is another great funk jam band. Complete with horn section. I have also listened to Lettuce who are along the same musical styles. | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? It would be sheer luck to have a room that doesn't need treatment, unless a person doesn't care, or doesn't know. The cost of room treatment for me was $1100. It is hard to integrate room treatment with living areas. I have a room that I can d... | |
| 40+ watts SET, cost is not a problem I am not a tube amp expert. I am being inundated with Upscale Audio ads. I just saw a Western Electric integrated. Has to be special ordered, so that could be a problem. 20W, 49 lbs.300B made in USA at their plant. Sorry if I'm not on target,... | |
| Am I right for this forum? I came to Agon without a working system. I don't have much selection in this town. I kept some stuff I got from my friend. Modified pro stuff. I started there. Also had some Klipsch RF3. So I got lots of help here and reading around. I enjoy ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados The Nashville Sessions 1 or 2. If you like English funk? A drummer friend who went with me explained it to me but I had never heard of that style. All I know is I like the band. Eddie Roberts solo work is good as well. I like almost all their ... | |
| Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8 Volti, Daedelus, DeVore, Klipsch are all good choice, Klipsch will play the loudest. While you're at it, buy an XA25,. Lots more extra power. Used $3000 | |
| Subwoofer Out VS Subwoofer Crossover I disagree with some. 1. Bass is the bigger power user from your amp. I would plan on 200W unless subs are very efficient. Powered subs.are fine. Splitting the signal is fine. I don't run full range through my mains. IM distortion is in main... |
