| Buying Without Audition Right now I'm using my 1990's Luxman R-115 receiver (75w/ch), recently cleaned and recapped. I've got a Peachtree Audio Grand Integrated on its way here. Tons of class D power (more than I really need) and a great built in DAC. For sources I have ... | |
| Buying Without Audition I don't have a dedicated sound room. The audio system is in my living room. The room is approximately 25 x 16 with a sloped ceiling that goes from 8 feet to about 12 feet high. I was quite impressed with a set of PSB Imagine small towers. The imag... | |
| Buying Without Audition BTW, anybody familiar with a full range speaker system with "detailed" sound that can be placed within 18" of the back wall? | |

| Buying Without Audition When I was a lot younger, and living in or near a city, I did the same thing and became very familiar with the brands and sounds of the time. A lot of sound waves have passed under the bridge since then, and there are so many more products now. I... | |
| Should I have my Luxman R-115 repaired? I may be shopping for a tech but I'm at the very western tip of North Carolina, a long way from Raleigh. I'm located 2 hours north of Atlanta; 2 hours west of Asheville; and 2 hours east of Chattanooga. Or, as many say, 2 hours from anywhere. |
