| Wilson Sasha 1 vs Sasha 2.... What songs best convey tweeter differences? These come to mind for treble tests. Specific timing of when in the song, no idea. Might try: David Byrne, Grown Backwards (album), Lazy (song) John Coltrane, Giant Steps (album), Spiral (song) George Winston, Winter Into Spring (album), Janu... | |
| Non-Audiophile Audiophile question! I did something that was fun for me and it turned out very nice. Depending on your room size. My goal was a under $500 system, all in. Amplifier, source, speakers, everything under $500. I wanted an efficient single driver, one for left and on... | |
| What is your "holy grail song" that you cannot find? Weird nightmare meditations on mingus, in vinyl. I have been told it happened but very very few made. CD is an easy find, vinyl oh well. @garebear, speaking of George Harrison, one that seldom comes up is Beware of Abkco. Total bootleg, ju... | |
| Monos, Stereo, or Multi-Ch Amps for HT and Music To get this going for you. Where are you living in the USA? From there people can recommend some places to go and listen to as many different set ups as you can. Obviously you love the sound of the Utopia. Does the place where you are looking ... | |
| Amps that don’t impersonate space heaters. @atmasphere Agree, I run a class D in warm weather and no heat streaming off. In fact, can turn it up and let it run for hours and no heat coming off. I haven't found one that sounds toe curling wonderful, but it isn't turning the room into a sa... | |
| Please help me! I can only speak for myself. As someone who currently has a bunch of systems, I have sold things in the past or given them away, only to have to re-buy. The issue comes in that each system has its own signature sound. I would wait to sell anyth... | |
| Finding Power Amp for Cabasse Murano Those are hungry speakers. I would be looking at something large class A/B design. I would be tempted, depending on where you live, to find something in the secondary market. I have had good luck finding Nelson Pass designs. One Threshold and ... | |
| Magnepans VS MartinLogan for detail and sound staging Maggies all the way, provided you have enough amp for them. There is no higher definition I have heard from a pair of speakers. You can hear people talking in the background of Beatle recordings. When I bought some Maggie 3.5r's something like ... | |
| Electrostatics and tubes Speaking as a past Magnepan owner, what I'm hearing is that you own a Ferrari and you want to put a diesel engine in it, or is it vice versa? Had the 3.5r's that were some of the most exact sounding speakers I have ever had. I played with a ATI ... | |

| Is there Tannoy Magic / Should I buy a pair of Tannoys as "accessory" speaker? Have listened at Upscale, they are super nice folks. They will do what they can to create a no surprise situation when you take the product home. I listened to some Tannoy (Kensington perhaps) hooked to a Marantz source for streaming and amplifi... | |
| Where Do I Go from Here? You can't have too many speakers. I would take $10k of your money and use it just for you journey. Go and listen to as much and many as you possibly can. I believe I currently have somewhere around 10 pairs of different speakers. They all have... | |

| McIntosh tube amplifier diagram @emergingsoul Call the guys in Vestal. I have talked to them a few times, but never with anything as technical as what you are looking at. They are close to the McIntosh factory and I consider them the ones that know McIntosh as well as McInto... | |
