| Considering Sonus Faber Liuto, Revel F52, JM labs The Cremora M was on a higher level, not even close. I am not great in audiophile terminology however I would call it much fuller & detailed. I auditioned them 4x prior to purchasing bringing my wife and friend on different occasions and we al... | |
| Considering Sonus Faber Liuto, Revel F52, JM labs I just purchased speakers and auditioned many including the Liuto, Electra 1028 be, PSB Stratus Gold and the S8. If the budget allows... I preferred the JM LAbs Electra 1038 be and Sonus Faber Cremora M. I went for The Sonus Faber and I am happy w... | |
| Are Cables Better Than High Grade Speaker Wire? What I am really asking is I can purchase high grade speaker wire pretty inexpensively. Say $50, if I choose to put spades or banana plugs on the price will go up but still pretty inexpensive. I see cheap cables for $100's and the prices rise dram... | |

| Preference - Sonus Faber, Dynaudio or Focal I am currently using an Emotiva XPA5 - 200 x 5. I may upgrade. I would keep the current amp for the center and rears and get a 2 x 250 - 2 channel or mono blocks for the mains. I would probably again get the Emotiva unless I saw a good deal on use... | |
| Preference - Sonus Faber, Dynaudio or Focal Thanks for your feedback. I am leaning towards the Sonus Faber. I could live with any of them however I can get the Sonus for $2000 less than the Dyno's and they are brand new. The Dyno's were demo's. The Focal's came in at an additional $3000. Th... | |
| HELP B&W 802D or Revel Ultima Salon2 You might want to check The New Focal Electra 1038 BE. I auditioned them twice last last week along with the B & W 802D. To my ear the Focal was superior. The B & W did have some more in the low end however the Focal I thought handled the ... | |
| Speaker Upgrade Put off by window shopping.... are you serious? They put in a cd, give me a remote and walk away. Such is business.... if their prices are reasonable I will buy. How do you select gear? Do you send someone thousands of $$$ without listening? | |

| Speaker Upgrade Shows are a great thought. I am in the Philadelphia Area and I am not aware of shows in our region.Regarding wasting the dealers time if they gave me a great deal I would buy. I also in the past have purchased many pieces of equipment from local d... | |
| Speaker Upgrade I do feel bad going to stores to audition speakers however I can't think of any other way to listen to that variety of speakers. Any suggestions?The place that handles the Vandersteen's I think are discontinuing the line. They pushed us away from ... | |
| Speaker Upgrade Thanks for your input. So far I have listened to the B & W 804D, The Dyno C2, Dyno 3.2 Contour and Paradigm S6. I really liked the C2 and so far the only one that I would consider a huge upgrade over my current B & W Matix 803's. My wife a... | |
| Ugrading B & W Matrix 803's I have the Emotiva XPA5 that delivers 200 x 5. I am using a Pioneer Elite VSX92THX Receiver as a preamp. I originally was using the Pioneer receiver's amp until my brother lent me his Emotiva Amp and I had to purchase one a few years ago. The amp ... |
