| Audio Physics ...Bright or forward? I appreciate every one's thoughts. I did not check my post well enough and it does not read right. I truly believe in supporting my local retailer. He has brought the speakers out to my home twice,(25 mile drive one way) and has worked hard for th... | |
| Audio Physics ...Bright or forward? The specific model I have been listening to is the new Tempo. I did not mean to say they were bright, just very forward. I have been listening to them with tube gear and the BAT integrated (hybrid)and a tubed cdp. With Transparent cabling they bec... | |
| S.F. Cremona vs Wilson Benesch Curves Well boys, I went on my speaker evaluation trip, a smooth 1200 miles of deliteful winter driving. MY impressions, the Wilson Benesch are the ones to own. The S.F. Cremona are a nice speaker. Absolutely beautiful built quality, muscial and very aut... | |
| Modwright Sony 999ES: Impressions of Modifications Foster,I have the Sony999/Modwright with all of the goodies and I really like it. I have owned all of the Cary players,and in home auditioned Arcams and the BAT cdps and the Modwright bests them all! It has the detail and dynamics of the Cary's an... | |
| Downsized and still happy, can it happen? Dude, I've been there done that and lived through it, and yes I am happy. I used to have VTL seperates, and switched to a Cary Sli-80 and loved it. The system is far simpler, as you pointed out and I get much more enjoyment out of it. Now, luckly ... | |
| 845 integrateds Any one know anything about the Cary 845 integrateds? I know they have been discontinued, but you see them around.ThanksMike | |
| Single Driver Horn vs Multi driver efficient spker Where can I find out "everything you ever needed to now about Horn speakers"? The only one I can listen to in my area is Avante garde and they are way out of my price range. When I have heard them, I did not really liked them, is that telling me e... | |
| Single Driver Horn vs Multi driver efficient spker Darkmoebius,I understand what you are saying about the p/p vs SET, but the musical involvement thing is what is missing. I have only heard one other SET in my home and it was a ASL layla 845, its what got me started down this path. The 3d imageing... | |
| 300b vs 845 Guys, Thanks for the responses. I hadn't thought about the heat issue and that could be a problem the way I am set up. My problem my be my amp and not the 300b tube, I just don't have enough experience with SET.ThanksMike | |
| Single Driver Horn vs Multi driver efficient spker Guys, great responses I appreciate it. Here is my system at present. I have a ModWright Sony 999 with his max modding, I really like it...very musical. I have the new Omega Hemptone 8" driver speakers, they only have 150hrs on them, but Louis says... | |
| Best Monitors for Rock N' Roll under $2500 I would put in another vote for the Reference 3A decappo's. They are seriously great monitors and can be bought in your budget used easily. | |
| Cary SLI-80 vs Cary 300SEI Artmaltman,I also had the same set up as you a couple of years ago, less the sub. I also had the same questions as you. I just got a Almarro SET today to try vs my sli-80 with Eh-Kt88. I also have 7308 and POPE 6ns7 tubes in the front end of the s... | |
| Speakers to match a CARY SLI-80 Indigosax, Although I am not familiar with your speakers, I am however a Sli-80 owner. You need to change out your front end tubes. I dont know where you bought it, I use Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio he sells a ton a of Cary and knows how to tube t... | |
| Best Integ'td Tube Amp w/ Silverline Sonata IIIs? Taylspin,You might want to try an ASL leyla 845 tube amp. It has a remote and the 845 tube will give you much better bass and weight to the music than a 300b IMHO. There are better 845 tube integrateds, but not in your price range, that I am aware... | |
| Dazed and confused You gentlemen are correct. The VTL is wired for a 5ohm load, why I dont know. If it will help too rewire it that would be great. Please explain to me why it make a difference.ThanksMike |
