| Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4 If you want efficiency, then Klipsch is at the top of the list. You can't go wrong with around 100db Cornwall's with a tube amp. They play low volume full bodied music or blow your roof off rock & roll with ease. Forte's and Heresy are basical... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. I think I am going to stay with an integrated amplifier. Whether it is my hearing or there isn't enough details in the music I am playing with the Pass Labs X1 and Bryston 4b SST over my Yamaha 5250 it just doesn't sound that different to me. I wi... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. Well I settled on speakers at least. I found a pair of Von Schweikert VR4JR speakers for 2000 which included shipping. It was a great decision, the speakers sound incredible. I feel their decision to have the beautiful enclosure done in China by a... | |
| How to supply a source to a headphone amplifier for the best sound. Thanks for the replies, I really appreciate your help in this.No tape out/record out. I guess it is because it is an older Yamaha made for surround. It has a main out and that is as close to tape out as I will get. I have a tape out on my Pass Lab... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. I went to Best Buy to visit the "Magnolia Room" and listen to some speakers. All I have to say is WHAT A JOKE that was. There was not one person that gave a damn that I might be there to spend money on speakers. I think they have to stand there wi... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. 4play thanks for the input, you are spot on with my thinking! I'll give the network audio a look. The cd ripper route is great sounding but the truth is along with zero vinyl I hardly have many cd's but the ones I have I listen to a lot.I'm actual... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. Here's where I'm at. I just hooked up my gear and it's a bit late so I can't turn it up until tomorrow or so. The Pass Labs X1/Bryston 4B SST is working perfectly and in low volume with my Marantz PMD-526C cd player I could tell the Bryston's 300w... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. I've had a LOT of recommendations on tubes. I don't even know there was a tube PRE amp. How does a preamp make a difference in the sound? I thought it was just a unit to plug all the sources into. Man do I have a lot to learn. I want to than you a... | |
| Recommendations on a digital system My preference is to have no blutooth/wireless since I will be listening in the same room as my gear. I have noticed nearly all the media players are either wireless (as an option) or amplifier which I would not need either. Are there any units tha... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. Bob, Mr.db and all, I received the Pass X1 and Bryston amp and will be setting it up with my inexpensive Marantz cd player to give it a listen! These beginning amps were selected from earlier recommendations and my research and reviews from others... | |
| Recommendations on a digital system Like I said passing a bad source through a good speaker is garbage in, garbage out so maybe I will confine the Sirius subscription to my car!Bob thank you, I don't need to stream wirelessly so the Bluesound Node is a definite possibility! | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. Lol! True davekayc! What I am looking for in these posts are multiple recommendations for an amp/preamp/digital gear/speakers. If I get multiple recommendations from these audio loving good people I know to take a hard look at it. An example is pe... | |
| Recommendations on a digital system So the signal from Sirius radio is not a quality signal? I guess I could use it leisurely but I have no doubt the source is as important to me in my system. I do know this, just like a computer, a good speaker is "garbage in, garbage out"! | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. bobd207s I hope my audio falls into place for me like it did for you! Being a musician must help a lot putting a good system together! cakyol I have seen lots of Naim and Shiit gear in upper level systems, I will look at that. jahatl513 I have had... |
