Best speakers for about $2000 a pair Heard a pair of VMPS 626's. About $1200. Tremendous imaging. Easy to drive and would be terrific with a decent tubed amp.http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0808/vmps_626jr.htm | |
Newbie Help with Speaker Choices I just heard some terrific speakers that might be suitable. They are bigger than monitors and smaller than floor standers. VMPS 626. Check out the reviews. | |
Van Halen or Van Hagar I would add votes for Van Morrison and Dick Van Dyke. | |
before/after cryo reviews? Never heard any change. Nor have I heard changes from elevating wires or elevating my amp on risers. Maybe my ears are shot (they are). | |
Best driving music. Nine Inch Nails live or Jane's Addiction's Ritual de lo Habitual cd. | |
NAD C565bee/Rega Apollo vs. DAC MHDT Paradisea 3 Both the NAD and REGA are outstanding. Not sure how much, if anything, will be gained by putting a DAC in. The Rega prides itself on a pure Redbook playback. | |
Amp to power Triangle Luna speaker Let us know. I paid 2100 for a demo two years ago, so you got a deal. | |
Share thoughts on Keith Jarrett He was out of the business for a while so he's making a comeback of sorts. I understand he was ill for a while but is better. | |
Cambridge Audio 840C LOL. Read the somewhat mixed review of this in Stereophile a few months back. | |

Amp to power Triangle Luna speaker The Primalunas would sound terrific as would Rogue or Cary's. | |
Opinions re Wyred4Sound integrateds? Stereotimes' website today has a review that may be of interest.http://stereotimes.com/amp020910.shtml | |
Amp to power Triangle Luna speaker I have a similar Triangle and use a Unico Secondo which can be had for perhaps just under $2K. Tubed preamp section and a 140 watt solid state amp section -- lovely sound. |
