| SS Preamp to go with Revel Salon 2s The XPR line of Emotiva amps is/was their best ever. Weighing in at 100 lbs, the XPR-2 pushes 600 watts at 8 ohms, 1000 watts at 4 ohms. It's enough to push the Salons even at high volumes. I agree that there's better out there from these manufa... | |
| So many integrated options -- McIntosh 8900, Levinson 585, Lyngdorf 2170, Anthem STR, Meant to post my only hold up with the 585 is that it has the built in DAC, which you're paying extra for. I'm not a fan of a built-in DAC as digital technology is always changing. You'll want to replace it later for the latest/greatest in digit... | |
| So many integrated options -- McIntosh 8900, Levinson 585, Lyngdorf 2170, Anthem STR, That Axpona room rocked, man. I spent 30 minutes in there Friday. Went back Sunday to listen for another hour or so, although the music selection they chose on Sunday kind of sucked in my opinion. I'm not a classical or jazz guy. I prefer Rock... | |
| Opinions: Used BAT VK-51SE or New VK-23SE A used BAT VK300 has popped up on here for a great price. But I'm trying to figure out if that is worth the cash or should I save some money and get the 3000 SE? Or wait for a used 300 SE in the same $2200 range. Is the 3000 SE worth the extra ... | |
| Opinions: Used BAT VK-51SE or New VK-23SE Warmth is definitely what I'm after. I feel the Focals resolve so well that if I lost a little to gain in musicality and warmth, I'd be fine. An integrated is definitely a possibility. When I was looking into Accuphase, that's the route I was l... | |
| Opinions: Used BAT VK-51SE or New VK-23SE @dweller I saw Kevin's video which is what turned me onto BAT. I was looking into the Primaluna Dialogue Premium when I saw his video about the VK-33SE. That one is out of my price range, unless I find a used one. And I haven't seen one...The P... | |
| Opinions: Used BAT VK-51SE or New VK-23SE I should have put the rest of my chain. This will be for my 2 channel, which is currently running from my Emotiva XMC-1 processor. The BAT would become my Preamp for all 2 channel then:Emotiva XPR-2 AmpFocal Electra 1028 BE II towerJL F113 sub | |
| Where to go next, DAC or Preamp That thing does look interesting. I’ll be sure to look for it at Axpona. | |
| Where to go next, DAC or Preamp No offense taken Stereo5. That's on my long term list. It's just hard to beat the price to performance that they offer. I've had my fair share of issues with their gear, though, and will look to move on once the warranty is up. Maybe ATI amps.... | |
| Where to go next, DAC or Preamp Forgot to put the audio gear is running on a dedicated 20 amp circuit. And I'm using the Furman Elite 20 PFI line conditioner. | |
| Where to go next, DAC or Preamp Not looking to make a jump to vinyl. Thanks though. |
