Best speaker in the US $ 30-45.000,00 range Two that have not been mentioned areZu's new speaker called "Dominance." A doubled set of Coincident Pure Reference Extreme | |
Ancient audio Lector Prime cd player You are discussing CDPs that live in the rarified atmosphere of being among the best. I have not heard the competitors to the Lektor Prime that the two of you mention, but I am thrilled with my Lektor Prime. It feeds into a custom-made upgrade of ... | |
Yamamoto A-08S and Audio Note ANe If recall, there was a Stereophile review of the A-08s in which it was tested with ANE speakers. Not that Stereophile reviews are necessarily the be-all and end-all, but this one might prove useful. The Yamamoto A-08s is marvelous-sounding, beauti... | |
Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Sometimes Grant Fidelity has sales on the Treasure tubes, even type A. | |
Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR I have used EML 45 (solid plate) and 2a3 and Shungang Black Treasure 300b with no reliability problems. Not sure how the EML 45/2a3 experience would translate into a 300b (especially a mesh plate 300b), however. I am very happy with the Black Trea... | |
What speaker for being close to rear wall? Van Schweikert V-33 and Allison One (if you can find a pair on the used market). Both were designed for rear wall placement. My Zu Definition 2s are 12" from the rear wall; this is where they sounded best. | |

Budget speaker $600 or under recommendations What about a pair of Spica TC-50s? | |
Best 300B Shuguang Treasures Black bottles. They compare very favorably with EAT 300b and that says a lot. However, as has been mentioned they have a long burn-in time. | |
Classics you can't have too many recordings of Bach Art of the Fugue | |
Bookshelf Speakers for Master Bedroom If you can find a pair on the used market, Celestion SL700s. However, they use a dedicated stand. | |
Your favorites amplifiers for their visual look ? Not to everyone's taste, but ElectronLuv makes some unusual-looking amplifiers:http://electronluv.com/html/amplifiers/My%20Gallery/index.html | |
Zu Soul Superfly I have followed this thread with interest . . . as the owner of a pair of Zu Definition 2s that I also consider a big tent speaker, albeit an expensive one. I agree with Phil, there are many music lovers more than willing to spend 2-3k on a pair... | |
Your favorites amplifiers for their visual look ? I rather like Ancient Audio amps for their aesthetics. |
