| Which speakers do you like in the $5K price range? Used Dynaudio's Confidence(I think this is right) use the world class Dynaudio Esotar 330 tweeter(same as Confidence, Sonus Faber Extrema's, etc). I'm not sure if those Dyn's are ported or what not. You might do best with acoustic suspension(seale... | |

| Paradigm Reference Studio vs. B&W N804 I'm currious...do we have any Canadians in the house? I can appreciate that!.... | |
| To Bridge or Bi-amp Klipsch speakers w/ Crver Amps Why not try it both ways and find out? You have the means, so give it a shot if you've got the itch! | |
| Why go with active preamp? There's a lot of good stuff that's been said here, from seasoned experience. You can pretty much pool what has all been said, and try to get an idea of what may or may not happen in your experiences. I can pretty much look at each post and concure... | |
| pass x-250 vs classe ca 200 w/ML SL-3's Well there's some varriables here that should be taken into consideration...To say one is going to be better would have to be qualified a bit. First, the Pass X250 is a supperior amp, as I've personal experience with both. The CA200 is a good amp ... | |
| Paradigm Reference Studio vs. B&W N804 I've sold both in the past. The N804 is a good sounding speaker for the money indeed. It has a bit of warmth to the sound, copared to, say, a more neutral sounding Thiel speaker. It has good dynamics, and even more so when biamped. The Paradigms a... | |
| Why go with active preamp? It's real easy...you buy a good active preamp and compare...play a variety of music with both set up's, including dynamic stuff...then you'll know. | |
| Suggestions for in-wall home theater speakers? My experiences with inwalls are that the sound is going to be way compromised, so why get picky? No matter what you use, the sound isn't going to be supper stellar. I would suggest looking into some of the horn loaded inwall designs myself. Klipsc... | |

| How do you think this system would sound? Overall the system would sound musical, and the coponents are basically refined higher end sounding pieces. So you should expect good clarity, detaIL, immaging(with proper set up), soundstage, etc. It would lack ultimate dynamics for pure rock lis... | |
| Anybody heard the new Thiel 2.4? Well I guess that's a no! At least people aren't pouring in to report any news. Yet I bet, like all thiel speakers as of recent, you should be pleased with what you hear overall. I suspect they'll be even better than the excellent 2.3's where. I d... | |
| cdp to amp I've done many many comparisons, with wide varrieties of music, played through lot's of different "passive set up's"..which is what you're discussing. My conclussions, thus far, has been that, you get more sonic purity in terms of potential transp... | |
| Bookshelf or floorstander? Oh this is one that's not a simple answer situation indeed. So much here depends on the gear being used, and the application, as well as the skill and knowledge of the person setting it up! I can't understate that last part enough. ONe thing to co... |
