| Trying to find an amp that matches my tastes (aka death metal) Being a bit of a metalhead myself, though not as deep as you, I think you will find it has more to do with source than equipment. Most metal is very compressed and very harsh. Just the nature of the beast. Might be worthwhile to source a good eq, ... | |
| Hidden Gems in Pre-Owned Solid State Power Amplifiers? I've got a Classe' Audio int. I really like it. The adjustability is great. Nice basic unit. | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? It really is easy, go big or go home! Just get a Wilson Audio Thor's Hammer and call it good. Kidding. Lot's and lot's of good info here. In the end though, one way or another, a compromise must be met. Budget constraints, testing capability, room... | |
| Has to be said Wow, I think I’m going to browse for some speaker wires or something... | |
| Volume Wars-- Are things improving, getting worse, or status quo? The biggest problem is not overall music quality (style preference) nor is it the mastering per se. The BIGGEST problem with current music is it is too "perfect". Every bit of human feel, nuance, etc has been removed via various devices that "corr... | |

| Fear of Streaming I love my vinyl, but there is simply no comparison to variety when it comes to streaming music. Pretty much everything from Spotify, Pandora to international internet radio. Really cool exploration for sure. Spotify “daily mixes” are really cool a... | |
| Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated @why0why... I demo’ed the Moon of similar price and the Hegel as well, the Sigma won out for overall “bang for the buck” in terms of the “bells and whistles” and overall sound (warm) for me. In terms of sound quality, the Moon was very nice overal... | |
| Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated First post... I have been going through the same process... I just purchased a Sigma 2001i and really like it.
