| Triangle Titus Xs Well, not sure what you mean by unique sound. To me they are very transparent, fast, revealing, clean. That may, however, not necessarily be a good thing if your other component are not up to the task; When I introduced Triangles into my system se... | |
| Bookshelf Speakers? Second the Triangles. You could also explore some floor standers like Triangle Antal and Celius... 92 db sensitivity and easier to drive than the Cometes. | |
| stereo reciever for sonus faber grand piano Home Just to complicate things: If tuner is not important at all, why a receiver rather than a stereo integrated? Much more selection of higher quality gear.Second, many of us leave our gear on all the time, is there reason why you would need a sleep f... | |
| Would like to add a sub to a two channel system It would be great to get more info on the sub to be able to give better advise.. brand and make?Most likely, based on your info, you can either use regular interconnects that you hook up to pre-out on the Adcom (It does have more than one, I belie... | |
| Sub Questions: Speaker-level vs Line & Crossover I think you are right on! No need for using pre-outs, many believe the sub will integrate better with the speakers when you run speaker level. You might want to explore using Rives test CD and Radioshack SPL meter ($50) when you set the sub up (pl... | |
| will adding a subwoofer improve overall audio I second Stanwal and Wavetrader, in particular in the context of your system. Bob's point is quite valid with satelites speakers or speakers with limited dynamics, but that would not apply to your particular situation of "full range" tower speaker... | |
| Newbie Setup Question - Digital You need a toslink from the Airport Express to the DAC you intend to buy :-) | |
| preamp with only 1 set of pre-outs: adding sub.... Like Bdgregory pointed out, you can connect the sub taking the signal from the speaker posts on you amp and connect speaker wire to "the speaker in" input on your sub (Not all subs have this connection). You would leave your speakers connected as ... | |
| best biwire speaker cables for under $300?? Have you tried twisting the Anti-cables? Do a search on that here on Audiogon, your current set-up might have the +/- spaced too far apart, impacting the "inductance???" | |
| Speakers for Unison Unico 80W I have the Unico and paired it with Triangle Antal with very good results, but given your room size you might consider the smallest floorstander (Heliade?)or the Comete. The synergy is there for me, the Unico has a wonderful grip on the bass , the... | |
| Squeezebox Duet DAC vs Rotel My advise, listen to both setups and decide for your self. I would expect, however, that the setup would sound better using the DAC of the Rotel.... but you never know until you try it. Good luck | |
| toddler/kid proof speaker stands I used this very same problem as an excuse to upgrade to floorstanders..... and much better sound... just as well because my son managed to throw them over... which then prompted me to get Sound Anchor bases... and even better sound...Don't think ... | |
| Small room, "budget priced" speaker advice, please Given that you don't play loud and value transparency, imaging, and soundstage, I would look for monitors that have higher impeadance (90db +). I second Grinnell's suggestion, Triangle Comete might fit your ticket, or even the smaller Titus. | |
| Rawson Resale...... Wwoof01,Have you noticed how many Benchmark1 DACs come up for sale on Audiogon? Must be a really crappy product eh?Many would beg to disagree. Circulation doesn't automatically mean something bad. Note above that many tend to move up the ladder, a... | |
| Rawson Resale...... Had mine for a year and not planning on selling..... ever. |
