| Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 In this price range I would also consider the Aerial 7T. | |
| Speakers for aging audiophiles - What's with today bass emphasis ? In terms of price the speakers I own are a bit higher but the Aerial 5T's are very balanced. Yet w/enough bottom not to sound thin. | |
| Recommendations for HT processor with HT bypass From my Bryston amp I use the balanced connections for my surround processor and the RCA's for my tube preamp. All I do is hit the switch on the amp for music or movies. Don't waste tube life on the preamp as most HT pass through's require the pre... | |
| Hi i have platinum audio bookshelf monitors that do not sound right... My dealer used to sell Platinum Audio. W/the Solo's you needed a minimum of 200 wpm for them to sing. Heard them demoed way back w/a pair of Parasound JC-1 mono's. Big sound w/plenty of bass. Designer Phil Jones is big on bass. One reason his Sol... | |

| Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK... The new Perreaux 255i would be an interesting match. Plenty of power. 360WPC in 8 ohms and530 into 4. | |
| Integrated Amp to match with Magico A3 Power requirements for the A3 are 50-300 watts. I'd look at the Perreaux 255i and the Luxman 509x. | |
| Tube amp/integrated with bass grip for Aerial 7Ts The VAC 160i integrated would be an excellent match w/your 7T's. | |
| Pass Labs vs Mark Levinson vs Parasound - best 2 channel amp used under $2,500? May want to look at Threshold and Forte amps as a sub to Pass Labs. Echo Audio has a Threshold T-100 for half your budget. My system still has a pair of modified Threshold T-50's and a Forte 6 running. I also had a Forte 4A which I sold a couple o... | |
| Opinions needed on some Klipsch for 2 channel hacking my dealers used speaker list he has a pair of Heresy III's for $1200. Gives you a chance to add a sub. | |
| Preamp Suggestions for hot-rodded Odyssey Khartago? The Belles Soloist 3 is an excellent preamp. Under $1500. | |
| Luxman vs Pass Labs Luxman makes all their gear in Japan. Very high quality. 4 months ago I replaced a CJ ET3 SE w/a Luxman CL38U-SE all tube preamp.A big jump in SQ and dynamics. The internal phono also all tube has 4 SUT's. Two for MC High and two for MC Low. Dead ... | |
| Finally took the Bryston 4B Cubed plunge I use a Bryston 2.5 SST2 w/a Luxman Cl38U-SE and a pair of Aerial 5T's. Excellent amp. By the way the late Jim Thiel used Bryston amps at various shows w/his Thiels. | |
| Why so many linn lp12s for sale Not always the TT. I was thinking of trading in my Linn a few months ago. I had a CJ ET3 SE and the sound was okay but no excitement. Dynamics seemed flat. I took home a Luxman CL38U-SE and the whole system changed. Dynamics, horns, strings etc. I... | |
| Upgrading from Integrated Amp to Separates The Luxman Cl38U-SE w/a Prima Luna Dialogue HP amp would put you at the 10K mark. The Luxman has an outstanding phono w/4 steps up transformers. 2 for MC High nd 2 for MC low carts. Also has tone controls and a mono switch. |
