| Sloppy, muted bass response on Hegel h190 @teo_audio10g speaker cable is usually a bad fit anywhere, btw....Can you please elaborate on this? I recently purchased some 10g speaker cables from BlueJeans and can't tell them apart from $1k AQ. | |

| A little Patience sometimes pays off! (Kef LS50 content) @singhania59 I am currently using Belden 5T00UP 10 AWG Speaker Cable, terminated with locking banana plugs from Blue Jeans cabling. Cost me $70 and I couldn't be happier. Now it's time to sell the ridiculous $1000 AQ GO-4 cables a dealer sold me. ... | |
| New 2018 KEF R series...? I had the Paradigm Prestige 75Fs for a few days and you’re right. They are very bright!!! Bottom end was boomy. Congrats on on your new Kefs! | |
| New 2018 KEF R series...? @b_limo Thanks! I just took a look at your room. Looks good! | |
| New 2018 KEF R series...? @b_limo Can you tell us what room treatments you are using and what your objectives are? | |
| New 2018 KEF R series...? @telescope_trade When I spoke to Kef, they were able to tell me that they often pair their speakers with Arcam, Anthem, Hegel, and Parasound. | |
| Looking for suggestions on best small footprint speaker under $4K You may want to put the Kef R7 on your list of speakers to audition. They retail for $3800. | |
| New 2018 KEF R series...? I think the R11’s sound incredible. I auditioned many speakers over the last year and I’ve found nothing that comes close for 5k new.I’m using them in a 13’ x 11’ room and I don’t think they have too much bass. As a matter of fact, I originally pu... | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? The best speakers I have heard are my friend's TLS-1's (based on the original Ohm F) made by Dale Harder of HHR in Ohio. I haven't heard anything that sounds that realistic and natural.Vandersteen 7's would also be up there. I have owned Vanderste... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts vs the competition.... @tommypenngotti just curious how the Tekton speakers are treating you? Still digging them? I auditioned the Electrons, but ultimately decided they weren't for me. | |

| Hihat Question Can’t swing a dead cat around here without hitting a drummer....(another drummer here).I too faced the same issue as you. I wanted more detail and was struggling to obtain it from my Vandersteen 2ce Sig II’s. The answer for me was to change speake... | |
| Speakers for a small room While I haven't heard that many speakers above the $4k mark, I would agree with tomic that the Treo CT is a very fine speaker. They occasionally come up on the used market for around $5,500. Good luck! | |
| All in one Pre/Power/Streaming/DAC or Streaming Preamp/DAC combo ~$2k-4k recommendations I would take a look at the Naim Unity Atom. Seems like it ticks all your boxes. I'm considering one myself. |
