| Good upgrade from Levinson 33H's What are your initial impressions on the Troy? | |
| Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 I agree with Onemug. Somehow, the XA200.5 sounds sweet, delicate, and holographic in addition to all the other things we associate with ample power. I suspect most other solid state amps sound hard and flat as a result of their more complex design. | |
| Questions About CAT JC-2 Thank you for reminding me why I love my solid state amp. | |
| Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 "always craving for even more resolution, more speed and a tighter and more defined low ends...design and characteristic of Pass Labs sounding slightly layback"Interesting, because that is not what I experience. Not doubting what you hear or your ... | |
| Lamm 2L Reference vs CJ GAT Curious if anyone has compared the BAT Rex to ARC 40th, CJ GAT, Joule LA450. The Purity Audio Silver Statement also looks very interesting.For me, the greatest asset for the BAT, and the reason I am not in a hurry to tempt fate, is the ability to ... | |
| Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 My speakers are 90 db efficiency. My amplifier provides 400+ watts into 4 ohms. I use every one of those watts, every day. And not just for a couple seconds. | |
| Thoughts of Pass XA30.5, 60.5 Why not ask Mr. Pass for his opinion? That's what I'd do. | |
| Tripoint Spartan My opinion is that it is important to heed proper attention to all components. I feel that many people become speaker poor, and never quite get the sound they would like. It's the same concept of being house poor - big house but no furnishings.Per... | |
| Avalon Eidolon or Parsifal Encore Be aware that it could take weeks to months to position your speakers. You are starting at a big advantage in having used speakers, and not needing to break-in a new pair. If they have been in storage, they still may benefit from some hours of war... | |
| Is the Accuton driver that good? I can understand why some people find ceramic to be sterile and uninvolving. However, the driver is just one small part of a total system, and with careful component selection, the Accuton can produce a holographic image that is spooky real, with ... | |
| David Berning Quadrature Z or Vitus SS-101 I heard the Berning in another system. I thought it became congested during large orchestral passages. It also made too much background noise. Something to consider in your own system since this is typically overlooked on a short-term A/B demo. If... | |
| Magico Q3's at Goodwin's High End Professional singers when unamplified and in large halls will fill the hall. They project their voice and sing deep from the diaphragm. They have a position, but the sound eminates beyond that position IN A NATURAL WAY. When the imaging is large a... | |
| Stealth Dream AC powerchord Chahed, You should look into NVS Sound PCs. I put a picture under my system thread. This is the best PC I have ever heard. It may be more appropriately called a 6 foot power conditioner. | |
| Magico Q3's at Goodwin's High End Goodwin's has one of the best showrooms in the world, and some great sales people who take the time. I'm glad they had a terrific demonstration. I didn't get to hear the Q3, but I did hear the Q5 there. | |
| Avalon Eidolon or Parsifal Encore Go for it.Nothing ventured, nothing gained. |
