| upgrading JADIS JA-200, JPS2 and JPS3 .. I agree with Rcprince. IMO, Simply dont do it,if not satisfied with the Jadis sound sell .You mess with it and your sound as well as the resale value goes south real quick ..**Jadis owner since 1995** | |
| How to make sound less detailed with warmth? I agree... dump the Theils.IMO they never sound good reguardless | |
| Narrowed speaker selection down to 5 choices Philefreak...PBN has no large following(if any),too hard to sell when the time comes.They may sound great but not for me because I consider resale when I buy gear.The Sophia 2 is well worth the extra money if you are seriously considering the mode... | |
| Narrowed speaker selection down to 5 choices IMO given your short list I would lean toward the Focals or the Revels.Never liked Theil at all,know nothing about PBN,pass on Dynaudio unless you step-up to the Confidence line then your talkin.....and would definately add the Sophia 2 to the lis... | |
| Krell / Mcintosh / Pass For Dynaudios Ive run Pass x.5 amp into my C4s and presently running a mc402 into them..The Mac falls short IMO compared to the Pass amp .The presentaion is darker and less detailed.I would step up to a x350.5 with your C5s | |
| Anyone Remember the B&W DM3000s? I bought a pair back in mid 1980s new from a dealer in the San Fernando Valley CA..At that time they were one of the best Id heard and certainly owned,since then many speakers have come and gone so a comparison to newer gear is not valid..They ser... | |
| Jadis DA30: fuse keeps blowing If your within sticking distance contact Brooks Berdan in Monrovia CA and dont mess around with distributors..Brooks is authorized Jadis since day one it seems and his bench tech is spot on with Jadis gear(they have all Jadis parts as well, which ... | |
| Wavac 805 A gentleman I know used the 805s running into speakers rated at 90db/4 ohm(speakers w/ a somewhat flat curve) and they sounded wonderful..IMO the 805s are doubtful with your speakers.I would look into SS with some muscle | |
| Avantgarde Duos - right for me? My audio friend has a pair of Duos in a large room approx 30'-20' fully treated.He added another pair of duo subs in the system..Running highend SET amps w/ complimentary components upstream..AMAZING!!..Truely amazing.Ive owned older horn loaded ... | |
| Power Output of Class "D" amps Yup, I really liked that BMW but their commercials suck Your real quick with sarcasm...Ill throw it righ back at ya..now theres "another great audio genious" | |
| Power Output of Class "D" amps I havent owned a class D amp so my comments are really invalid on that subject..My thoughts go to the statement about buying an amp that the maker offers instant upgrades before you take it out of the box i.e. Atma-sphere which I auditioned..Ive s... | |
| Best cables for Jadis DA88 Signature amplifier Ive owned Jadis since 1995 when I walked into Brooks Berdans shop in Pasadena CA..Both monos and the famous Defy7..I wanted a quicker cable so right now im using Virtual Dynamics with great success...enjoy the Jadis,I think in the longer haul you ... | |
| Lamm Pre to McIntosh Amp IMO I have to agree with Mtdking..I dont think the impedence matches well Lamm/McIntosh.Plus the Lamm pre amps Ive heard had that famous HISSSSSS. | |
| best pre -amp under 4000$ Maverick...Tvad is right on,follow his advise..the man knows audio!!! | |
| Dynaudio C1 vs C2 IMO, Xti16 is right on spot..I own C4s and have heard the C1 vs C2.I really didnt care for the sapphire compared to the confidence line,again just my personal opinion.It seems the C1 is easier(watching ads on this forum) to sell as more prefer the... |
