| Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K) Hi gene3x, I had B&W 802s until I purchased an MC352 with a C2500 pre to match. Several people’s comments are correct about those tweeters, they were too bright and fatiguing for me, so I sold them. They were ok with my Parasound A21 Halo amp,... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? I am also at the stage in my gear collecting where I’m trying to tweak everything to it’s maximum performance. So, I recently replaced the XLR interconnects between my CD player and preamp and preamp and amplifier. I had about a $350 budget per se... | |
| Best cartridge under $1500. Thanks for all your inputs, I pushed the button on the Dyno 17D3, found one used with only 20 hrs on it, too cheap at $800 to pass up with all the good reviews. I have the Soundsmith Zephyr MIMC, the AT ART9 and the Ortofon Cadenza Blue, in que fo... | |
| Best cartridge under $1500. Thanks Avanti, sounds up my alley! | |

| Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs? I am also considering the Legacy Signatures for their size to room size ratio. Just worried about the bass output. My listening room is 11' wide by 20' long. so the speaker will have to be 7-8 feet apart to not sound terrible from wall proximity.... | |
| Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs? Wow!!! My mind is spinning! Thanks Dave, Troy, and Charles! This is why I was having trouble in the first place...I figured the speakers were equally matched on performance rather than price and appearance so much. It's just a matter of very perso... | |
| Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs? Thanks all! I think this gives me enough AMMO, to make a decision. I do love the aesthetic of the Legacys better and figured they would have more bass. As I said, my 802s are weak there, so I’ve been craving the speakers of old where 12-15 inch wo... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Thanks for the response Corelli, now I need Mac to see my question... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I saw on here that several of you (corelli, and mac48025) had the Legacy Focus and went with the Tekton DIs. What was the difference in sound? I prefer rock, alternative and industrial, but have a fair collection of Jazz and Classical, but my hear... | |
| Need a preamp with tone controls! Some great advice, thank you all! I will end this post someday with what I chose to purchase.Sincerily,Steve | |
| Need a preamp with tone controls! Thanks for the tip audioman58! Spread Spectrum stuff is very notable gear, never thought to look there. There are so many brands, ya know...can't think to check them all. I will take a look! | |
| Need a preamp with tone controls! I'm currently using the NAD C-352 integrated as my preamp, lot of flexibility, but it definitely feels like it's holding back all my Halo A21 amp has to offer. What I really need is to try boths preamps I truly want in my home, the McIntosh C-50/5... | |
| Need a preamp with tone controls! Yes, I have the 802s, all drivers are in great shape. I bought the Parasound Halo A21 under many recommendations. Very happy with it! Currently using an NAD integrated amp for the preamp. It has tone controls, is probably the last item stopping to... | |
| Agoners: Need Advice! Have 3K to spend on an Amp, what do I do with no way to audition? Love McIntosh, just can't quite afford it! |
