| What is best amp for Maggie 3.6R Consider biamping. That's where the real Maggie magic is!I am using PS Audio GCA 250 (mod by Underwood HiFi) on the ribbons and a BVAudio (no longer in biz) on the bass panels. Best to use identical amps, but this is what I had on hand and the BV ... | |
| Balanced outputs vs balanced design Defintitely DB all the way! First Overture would be worth considering as a preamp. It is also a SOTA DAC. I have a PS Audio GCP/GCPS. Very reasonable price. It has passed through every change I have made to my system. | |
| Class A amp vs Class D amp Classe A amps require a tremendous amount of electricity to run. Depending on where you live because they throw off so much heat, they can take the place of a space heater.Most multichannel music or movie sound tracks are not properly recorded to ... | |
| Spectron Musician III Signature vs VTL Siegfried? No but a PS Audio GCA or GCC modified by Underwood HiFi, or the guy that PS recommends in their Forum section,will be tough to beat for a lot less $$$$$$$ | |
| HT speaker system for $1000? Most multi channel tracks on movies aren't properly recorded. I find them very annoying. Even the engineers on SM 3 and Pirates failed to get it right. You're better off upgrading your selection of 2 channel and a powered sub with a an outboard cr... | |
| Need help with preamp choice... I highly recommend PS Audio GCP/GCPS. Gain Cells as volume controls are very innovative, resolving known issues with conventional volume controls. It is extremely flexible, offering SE and XLR I/Os. It also has polarity control (although it is mis... | |
| Best speakers under $2000 to match with a SET amp? THe problem with most speakers is they need to be well out into the room (think 1/3) to breath.You might look at maggies small wall mounts. I think you can buy them direct with a one years trade up I THINK | |
| Floor standers or Monitors? I have tried numerous versions of both. I much prefer a solid floor-stander with a narrow width, unless you can find a monitor that bolts to the base. I currently own Usher 6311 (see auction) and 6371s. I also have Maggie 3.5Rs which I am now usin... | |
| Best player for Poorly Recorded redbook CDs? I have been around the cutting edge of really good CD playback for some time. My last CD player was the vaunted Lector CD-7T, which I replaced with a Bluenote Stibbert. It does a really good job of playing poorly recorded discs (like Annie Lennox ... | |
| Best CD player money can buy ? MBL, Nagra, Naim? Memory Player | |
| What to buy Run don't walk to Usher. They're somewhere in Texas. Tell'em Robert Hart sent you. | |
| intergrated for rock and dance and blues Best way to hear rock is with a muscle solid state amp like the BVaudio A300S. I am a dealer and can get you a demo unit for under $1500. | |
| What Pre amp to use Look for a used BVaudio P1, an excellent choice. Also you made no mention of power conditioning- very important! | |
| Balanced power line conditioners use with CJ We have used both with a wide variety of ss and tube amps, just not the ones you mentioned. We prefer to sell the BPT. | |
| Please help with choosing speakers I have a large room and 6 ft tall speakers in a sub/sat set up. The sound is awesome, but I don't like the way the towers cut up my living space. As good as 3.6s are, they suffer from the same issue that all "full range" speakers suffer, which is ... |
