| Speaker recommendation Martin Logan Montis seems to be available for $5K used for even brand new. > Love the sound of them at that price.They were $10K new a few years ago. Read the reviews. | |
| Odyssey Stratos monoblocks with Elac Adante AS-61 @henryjudyI just mentioned Audio Alchemy due to the fact that everyone at the shows liked how they sounded with the Adantes.I use recapped Krell amplifiers myself with my Martin Logan Montis speakers. I have 3 of them. Krells are so muscular compa... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! WCSS,I do not feel that you are being fair with Krell amps. The models you mention and the other monoblocks you had a little while ago are known to be no where as good as some of the older Krell models. I own a KSA-200S, KSA-250 and a KST-100. It ... | |
| Odyssey Stratos monoblocks with Elac Adante AS-61 Audio Alchemy DPA-1M Monoblocs for sale at US Audio Mart for $1,500. Schiit Freya (4) 6NS7 tube preamp $699. Or you could buy the Audio Alchemy DDP-1 with PS5 power supply upgrade (preamp and DAC) $2,500 new. Sometimes the Audio Alchemy DDP-1... | |
| Preamp Advice for my System Your BAT Preamp could sound a whole lot better using the balanced outputs to the Bel Canto amps. The BAT has 2 sets of XLR outputs. Using the 2nd set of XLRs going to the crossover and running the Apogees full range should have a much better sound... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @mikepaul,If you live in an apartment or townhouse, please disregard my thoughts.If you have an amplifier that has a strong bass ability, then maybe you can parlay that into the speaker outputs of the amplifier with some added subs. Martin Logan s... | |
| Looking for ideas - new mono blocks for stereo music @AUXINPUT,Your last post about fuse change was extremely well done. I have always wanted to know about this ability of fuse change in a controlled environment with enough time with good equipment to tell the differences of what the fuse is doing.B... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! You go WCSS. I like the real opinion. I'll Pass on that. LOL. The Magico S3 is your helper with what works. Me like it. | |
| Looking for ideas - new mono blocks for stereo music @auxinput. You are right about that some offer the fully balanced differential design.I own 3 Vintage Krell amplifiers. The amount of power supply, capacitors, output transistors and protection is pure overkill. The ML Montis speakers drop down to... | |
| Looking for ideas - new mono blocks for stereo music I agree with many here...Having mono amplifiers does not make for a significant difference between a good stereo amplifier. The best money spent is on a good sounding system. If you think having 2 boxes is BETTER, then you are not giving a whole w... | |
| Looking for ideas - new mono blocks for stereo music Just saw on Ebay and also direct from HiFiHeaven in Green Bay, Wisc. a pair of Krell Solo 375 monos for $4,400.00 each. Mint condition. Authorized Dealer. Just an FYI. | |
| Looking for ideas - new mono blocks for stereo music Krell Solo 375 Monoblocks are by far exactly what you are looking for. They have the auto-bias Class A and just have a softer way of bringing the treble. The treble is not rolled off, just not what some of these so called state of the art amps do ... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @WCSS,Sounds like a good idea to keep the Magicos for now. Revel Ultra Salon 2 also would be my choice as well. Of course, you got me thinking about what the Martin Logan 15a would sound like with that MAC 2301 combo. PS Audio, well, you will have... | |
| Is dedicated PreAmp with Oppo 105 needed? P7 and be done with it. Otherwise throw your money into a separate preamp and amplifier that kicks butt over your Parasound and Oppo stuff. Most audiophiles have a separate setup for music. HT Passthru is an option with the P7 to get the best of b... | |
| Schiit not that Good? Freya is only $700. That allows you to put more money into your amplifier, speakers or whatnot. And the flexibility with the 6SN7 tubes and the Balanced XLR input and output. A fully balanced system does seem to have advantages. |
