| which speakers best for my system /musical taste? Look at the ATC line of speakers, they are hugely dynamic and punchy for rock. The monitors I have are the ATC SCM-12's. They need power, but with the Krell you have it. | |
| Review: Linn Akiva Cartridge I also thank you. I really would like to hear the Akiva but my Archiv is almost new and I can't justify trading it in for only $800 right now. YOur review makes me very tempted, however. | |
| Power Conditioner - balanced power hookup? Correction to my post above: the BPT-2 has 10 not 8 outlets. It is a real powerhorse. Website is: www.b-p-t.com | |
| Power Conditioner - balanced power hookup? Jaytor, I can't answer all your questions, but I will let you know that I recently purchased a Balanced Power Technology BPT-2 (2000 watt) conditioner from member dealer Underwoodwally and it has made an amazing improvement in my system. I am not ... | |
| multi channel amp question. Hi Bill, I have been using the Act 3 with an Acurus 125 x 5 for about 2 years and it sounds great! I don't have efficient speakers at all, ATC SCM12 monitors at about 87 dB plus an ATC sub. I recently sold the Act 3 and bought a used Soundstage. F... | |
| Great Rock & Roll speakers? I was at my friend's for dinner last night, and his mid-80's vintage Polk SDA-1A's sounded incredible! I had just gotten him to buy some custom made Sound Anchors stands for them and the bass became so much more focused and tuneful. The rest of th... | |
| ATC SCM12 and 50wpc Manley Stingray? Another superb-sounding set of monitors you might consider as you're auditioning are the ProAc 1SC's. There are usually a couple of pairs for sale used here, for around $1300. I have those monitors too, and they sound fantastic on the ARC CA-50 tu... | |
| ATC SCM12 and 50wpc Manley Stingray? I have the SCM12's and they lost their dynamics and punch when I used them with my 45-watt ARC tube integrated. Instead, I use them as fronts in my small HT system in the bedroom, with an Acurus 125 x 5, and they are FANTASTIC! I think they need a... | |
| What is the Best Speaker thats no bigger than 14 The ATC SCM-12 monitors will fit on your shelves/stand and can butt right up next to a rear wall if necessary. They are somewhat inefficient (86 db) but your 140 watts should be OK. I have them as front speakers with my Acurus 125 x 5 and they mak... | |
| Help tame my Ekos I had the Akito and van den Hul MC-One Special, and now have the Ekos and Archiv, and on none of these set-ups did I hear anything bright or overly dynamic. Did a dealer mount your Ekos and Adikt? The tonearm has to be removed from the table to do... | |
| Bose Sattelite VS. B&W LM1's I have the LM-1's and they are incredible! I was playing a DVD surround sound music disc and sitting near the LM-1's--their resolution, detail and musicality were the equal of the front speakers, ATC SCM-12 monitors. Very dynamic and detailed with... | |
| Review: Balanced Audio VK-31SE Tube preamp Hi, very informative review. I have the VK30SE and was wondering: what changes are made to the VK31SE? Different tubes or what? | |
| How should I handle this? Viridian's advice is right on: calmly contact the dealer and explain what you've learned and request a full refund with return shipping costs. Don't get sarcastic or accusatory. If dealer refuses that solution, request he pay for shipment to distr... | |
| 'Last CD Player' search I don't think the Cary 308T is $4000--more like $2500 new I believe. The 306/200 is $5000, used for around $3000. I would choose a one box player if I were in your shoes. Any of those you are considering are excellent. If you buy used, you can sav... | |
| A new ploy for fraud? This sounds like the guy from Nigeria who has $1 million in a US bank account and needs your help getting it wired to him . . . I have received this email about 7 times. I think I read about it in Newsweek last year too. |
