| Low power tube amp for Sonus Faber? Thanks everyone for input. It seems the majority here agrees 30w is not ideal. So if that’s the case I might be able to get mastersound 845 evolution. It’s 55w per channel. Would this be better or I shouldn’t bother at all under 100w? | |
| Low power tube amp for Sonus Faber? I have a small room and listen mostly to piano, jazz, opera, classical, full scale symphony etc. If I crank up the volume, am I risking amp to clip and damage my elipsa? i really wanna get the amp, I’m in love with it. | |
| Low power tube amp for Sonus Faber? My options are 845 compact or mc275. 845 evolution is not an option for me. I think MS is more high end than mc 275 (is this accurate ?) and I’m trying to stay away from Mcintosh. I’m currently using mc452 and c2600. @mboldda1 how is your low end ... | |
| Mcintosh C2600 preamp tube upgrade ad48170I have the same exact set up as you with MC452,C2600, mcd550 and SF Elipsa. Though I noticed you switched your speakers to Amati Futura. May I ask what prompted this change. What cables are you using? I love my current set up, but still us... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 jimman2 they're certainly bigger than I expected but incredibly beautiful and fit nicely in my living room. I have an exposed concrete wall and mid century modern decor with 10 foot ceiling, so they fit perfectly. They look like modern art pieces.... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 Thank you everyone for feedback. I got the Elipsa In graphite. They sounded sublimewith mastersound amps. Can’t wait to set them up with mc452 and c2600, though probably won’t get the same level of performance with my gear. Immense improvement ove... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 I haven't ruled out A3 or Kanta but leaning towards Elipsa. Is there a way to know if a speaker has been abused just by listening? Perhaps a test CD? Or is it strictly done by faith on a used market? Yes Im looking at Elipsa from the Bronx, they ... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 Does anyone know when SF Elipsa was discontinued? The one I'm looking at is at least 5 years old. How much wear is acceptable in those speakers? Which parts have the shortest half life in SF? This set was driven by Mastersound PF100 playing mostly... | |
| Focal No.2 Speaker System: A New Age Dawns Hi Dave, I see you're very pleased with Kanta 2. I believe we have similar interests in classical music, and I was hoping you can give me your perspective on my next speaker upgrade. I started a discussion on Kanta vs. Magico vs. SF elipsa. Can yo... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 I feel my electronics are far superior to my speakers and I'm not getting their full potential. VA Mozart seem too small, laid back, lack of detail at the top, do not accurately reproduce massive orchestral works or piano works. Paradigm persona d... | |
| Speaker recommendation for mc452 and C2600 Budget 8-10k new or used | |
| Furukawa power cables @geoffkait Assembling a product in china by an actual company e.g. apple, casio, tannoy is different from making knock offs in someone's basement and selling them as an actual product. PS Audio cables on ebay are probably fake. Also, it appears s... | |
| Furukawa power cables Spoke to my dealer. He said those are probably fake if shipping from china. He also advised that there many fakes including PS audio power cables, shipped and sold by US sellers on eBay. Even relatively cheap cables 50-90$ would still bring a mass... | |
| Speaker recommendation for mc452 and C2600 Very impressed with Dynaudio, especially c4 platinum. Also looking at Focal, B&W and Sonus faber. Which would be best for classical? I read that diamond tweeter in BW is not ideal. What about magnepan? My local dealer insists they're good for ... | |
| Speaker recommendation for mc452 and C2600 I actually created a new room in my basement, so room acoustics are different for sure. I thought it would be different in a positive way, the room is more insulated with carpets, sofa, book shelf. Nothing on the walls though. I know about the bre... |
