| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... I can't switch speakers, as I have NO doubts it would be a downgrade, regardless the price or brand. Owning a pair of Vapor Cirrus is the ultimate experience ;-) | |
| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... Thanks Rhljazz ... I actually had the WFS 1000 in my system for a month, and it was a good sounding amp, but not even close to what my mcCormack offers. I really, really want to go digital, badly ... I just do not want to go backwards in sound qua... | |
| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... Ok guys ... I overstated when I said " I have heard them all " ... I should have said I have heard MOST of them. I find they all sound slightly different, but seem to still share the basic traits I described to one degree or another. I have not he... | |
| So what is the best speaker you have ever owned? I have owned 6 speakers on this list already ... and by a long shot, the best speakers I have owned are the Vapor Cirrus loudspeakers ... see them at http://www.vaporsound.com/#all | |
| Lexicon RT-20 for SACD I wonder why there is lots of dissing on the RT-20 here ? I owned this player and used it primarily as a redbook CD player. It easily hung with ANY CD player I have ever owned, and in my 26 years in the hobby, I owned quite a few of the very best ... | |
| Room size for Alon V MK2 I used to both sell, and own the same speakers. your room is VERY small for those speakers. You have solved your own problem. | |
| Linn Mimik vs. Arcam Alpha 9 Hello, as a dealer I have sold and owned both for years during their prime. While the Mimik is a decent player, there is simply no way it is as good as the Aplha 9. The Alpha 9 was a giant killer at a low price point. HTH | |
| which power cables for w4 sound sx-1000s? Foster_9 ... I make ALL of my own audio cables from finely stranded UPOCC copper, which a cable manufacturer ( family hook-up ) makes to my own specs ... Cheers | |
| Best Hobby related purchase of 2010 Buying myelf a pair of custom Cirrus loudspeakers for only $3500, when they sound like 6 figure loudspeakers ! It has to be the signle biggest steal in the industry today. | |
| which power cables for w4 sound sx-1000s? I owned the SX-1000 monoblocks, and personally found them a little dry and rolled off. I was able to help this significantly with very open and transparent power cables. For the Wyred amps, it made all the difference in the world. Only down side w... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? The latest version of the Vaporsound Cirrus. In my 26 years, I have heard NO peers under $50,000. | |
| Vote for best US made solid state amp I've never heard a Levinson, Krell, or Rowland that sounds even half as good as the McCormack DNA-500 | |
| Bel Canto Pre3 & Wyred 4 Sound STP se .. anyone ? These two preamps are perfectly equal in price ... i am very shocked not one person has compared these two. | |
| Best used floorstander on the FS forum under $2500 These need to be dynamic style floor standing. Not overly large. My amp is a VERY high current, pure Class A amp which does 50w/ch at 8 ohms and 100w/ch at 4 ohms, and will play 2 ohm stereo at 200 w/ch. .... So efficiency is somewhat important, b... | |
| Opinions on the Zaph Audio ZRT Revelator Towers ? The comments about limited dynamics are interesting to me. I have used the revelator drivers in my car audio systems, as well as the Scan tweeters, and they would play louder than most any speakers of that size that I have ever heard. |
