| Cheapest but good cables…. Triode Wire Labs out of NYC. The owner and cables are exceptional. | |
| AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House Has anyone heard these amps compared to Luxman's high end amps (m900u / m10x)? If so, how would you describe the differences? | |
| (Hegel vs Luxman) vs PS Audio I have no experience with Hegel, but have owned the BHKs and moved to the m900u. Initially i was disappointed with the bass on the Luxman, relative to the BHKs. But over time I've come to think that the BHKs bass, while deep and present, was les... | |
| Rega P10/Apheta 3 connected to Luxman EQ-500. This is slightly off topic, but since there are two or three of you with this set-up, and I’m considering it, can you speak to your satisfaction with, and the qualities of the sound, with the P10 into the EQ-500? | |
| Has anyone compared the Linn Akurate with the new Selekt DSM Katalyst? I owned the Akurate DSM and had it upgraded to Katalyst. When I picked it up I listened to it against the Selekt and the Klimax, just to see if the Selekt might be a good next step. To my ears, no. The Akurate was clearly the better sounding un... | |
| Analog vs. digital It's interesting that you could take this entire thread, replace vinyl and cds with film and sensors, and post it to any similar photography thread and have it map nearly seamlessly. Technology and human passions included. | |
| PS Audio BHK 600 PS Audio sent an email to existing customers (at least existing BHK 300 customers) with a special link for the pre-release site. Perhaps those "who would actually know" didn't? I can't speak to who PS Audio keeps in the loop for these sorts of t... | |
| Seeking Amp / Preamp Upgrades Finding an integrated without a dac is pretty easy, but most, in your price range, do include a phono stage. I wouldn't let that deter as there is no or minimal sonic penalty for having it onboard, and it may enhance resale value when you eventua... | |
| Seeking Amp / Preamp Upgrades Have you considered an integrated amp? Many good choices, both new and used, at your combined budget. The delta between them and separates is much less than it used to be. | |
| What does a subwoofer solve? One more thing: The front end is a Linn Klimax DSM Katalyst (I know I'm in the land of mostly Linn haters here, but I can live with that). Output impedance is listed at 300 Ω. | |
| What does a subwoofer solve? Thanks again for all of the input. I'll stand down on the subs for now and investigate some alternative placement of the room components, especially speakers. One example of what I mean when I say they amp is shy on bass is Max Richter's Blue No... | |
| What does a subwoofer solve? Thanks for all of the input. I found a local dealer who will let me borrow a pair of subs for a couple of days, so will probably take that route to start. As to comments about doubting the Luxman doesn't have enough bass, I've seen it mentioned ... | |
| Speaker styles / sound Thanks everyone, and apologies for falling off the face of the earth for a few months before responding. Millercarbon, not sure where you got the idea this had anything to do with size. As stated, I was looking for a comparison of their sonics a... | |
| The smoothest amp you've heard? Luxman m900u. Smooth, detailed, airy and you can listen for hours. Will be updated early next year with the m-10x if the rumors are true. | |
