| Tube vs Solid State Bill, thanks, that's a good point. The only issue with padding down the gain on SS is a trip to manufacturer for gain adjustment. However, this option is quite appealing considering the added expense of external crossover and extra sets of cables ... | |
| Tube vs Solid State @swampwalker , you didn't dissuade me at all. I am still determined to try bi-amping before I give it up in favor of a hybrid or class A heavyweights, like Krell or Pass Labs. George, good point. That's exactly what I experienced last weekend. Che... | |
| Tube vs Solid State Thanks Al, i will speak to Dan soon and chime back in soon. Spencer, great feedback. I have heard 800's with McIntosh and Classe and to my ears, McIntosh matched very nicely with 800's. I would love to try Aesthetix Atlas mono's but they are bit ... | |
| Tube vs Solid State "My suggestion is that you consider trying your existing amps in a passive vertical biamp configuration...."Al, thank you for your feedback. I have already tried this, while I gain bit of better separation in mid’s and high’s, the bottom falls out... | |
| B&W 800D or 802D Cosmetic Issues Long story short, the dealer end up replacing the Marlan head and tweeter tube on one of the speaker. The whole experience kinda left a bad taste and took away the joy of buying a 'new' pair. | |
| Equipment Stand Marcus, Glad to hear you are delighted with your purchase of PlyKraft 3L. Good luck with your turntable project and many years of musical bliss!!!! | |
| $500 USB cable @geoffkait, well said 'An ordinary man has no means of deliverance'. | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo thieliste, I have not tried the 36.5DM power supply. I did discuss the separate power supply option with Dan prior to buying the LS36.5. According to him, it's a whole another level of performance. It's on my short list of future upgrades. I don... | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo +1 melbguy1. I am very happy with a pair of Modwright KWA150SE driving my B&W802D2's in bridge configuration. This amp is grossly underrated, easily one of the best solid state amp under $10K. The holographic imaging, tubey mid-range, fabulou... | |
| Aurender N10 or X100L "do you think it is "overpriced" to my current audio system?"Only you can answer this question. You do have a nice system to boot, adding N10 will definitely enhance your listening experience. The overall improvements I heard in the soundstage bet... | |
| Cable elevators @maxboy00 , thank you for sharing your experience with elevators. That's what good friends for, they do keep it real :-)IMO, tweaks are very much components or system dependent and above all user ability to discern any improvements - good or bad.... | |
| Aurender N10 or X100L Is there a reason you're not considering N100H? Unless you need more than 2TB of storage, N100H is a better server due to its full linear power supply. I owned N100H for 6 months before upgrading to N10. | |
| Cable elevators OP, You may also look into elevators from Red Dragon Audio, I am using these to keep my flat cables above carpet to great effect. And they are quite inexpensive. https://www.reddragonaudio.com/collections/frontpage/products/esd-xl-cable-elevators | |
