| Cabling Recommends Simaudio Ace/Totem Forest Going with the AZ Satoris and the DH labs jumpers as Soix recommends. Looking forward to their arrival in a week or so. Will post update Also, looking a picking up an AZ Tsunami power cord. Thank you all for your guidance! | |
| Cabling Recommends Simaudio Ace/Totem Forest Totally fair point. Some of this is early onset upgraditis disease! More to the point, detail while maintaining coherence/overall musicality the target. Admittedly, this is rather vague but not sure how else to explain. Thanks again! | |
| Simaudio ACE or 240i Purchase an Ace a few weeks back to replace an older Krell integrated into Totem Forests (87db 8 ohm, 50-200 watts) that are reputed to be power hungry. Ace has no issues driving them. NYC apt so not playing ear bleed levels but they can easily ... | |
| Cabling Recommends Simaudio Ace/Totem Forest All - Appreciate the input. A few comments. Interesting on Tress, have heard of it before but seems hard to find so good to have Chord alternatives. Definitely need to add "real wire" jumpers and Chord looks like the right way to go. Currently... | |
| Naim SuperNait 3 vs Simaudio Ace (Hegel?) Thanks for the responses. Leaning toward Naim. A little concerned about the speaker cabling. Using Transparent. | |
| Urgent - Totem speakers for Krell I am using the 400xi with the Forests and it is a good combination. Did not hear it with the Hawks. Marakanetz - The 400xi gets fairly warm but certainly does not have high heat issues. | |
| Which Totem Speakers I have the Forests in a slightly larger room. The distance apart and from the back wall is similar to yours, however, I am sitting about 15 feet away which is too far back and takes away from the imaging. Sitting 9 feet away in your case (and when... | |
| any early 80's alt/soft punk fans out there? Another great 80's band, Heaven 17. Also, give Depeche Mode Songs of Faith & Devotion another listen. Hated it when it first came out but now, while clearly a different direction, I think it is amazing.Levy: Wow, actually seeing Joy Division l... | |
| any early 80's alt/soft punk fans out there? If could only have one CD (ok double cd) on desert island, it would be New Order Substance. It has all the classics. Whenever I listen to Blue Monday, it sounds completely fresh. I concur that their newer material was not up to the earlier but sti... | |
| Freaky speaker experience: So cool that your wife is going to conduct this experiment with you. I would get the "oh, my husband's an idiot sigh". Any results yet? I have Forests and have not bi-wired. | |
| Pre-Power or Int Amp for Totem Wind I just auditioned the Winds using Audio Research tube pre and amp. Can't recall the model numbers but they were one below the Reference gear. The sound was excellent. | |
| Overshadowed by bandmates John Frusciante of Red Hot Chili Peppers. When he left the band to enjoy heroin full time, the song quality significantly deteriorated. They brought him back and went on to make great stuff. | |
| Ayre MX-R VS Vitus SS-010 Sthomas: What were the amps that were close to the Ayre but much less costly? | |
| Ayre vs Pass Setup? The living room, main listening area, is approx 20 x 13 x 9. It adjoins to a smaller kitchen and dining room. | |
| Sunday morning music...what's spinning? Ladytron, most recent CD "Velocifero". Just saw them in concert last night and picked up CD. Helen's voice is beautiful. |
