| how do maggies sound with b&k st-140 amps? There are many models to choose from under $1000.00.I think any of the ones you have mentioned will work just fine with your amp and room size. I doubt you will feel the need to bi amp those models.Some of which cannot be bi amped without some mod... | |
| Does a non-audiophile have to calibrate? One easy way I get non audiophiles to understand this stuff is by sitting them down in the sweet spot(two channel music of course). Having them close their eyes. Put on a well recorded cd with good spacial information..something with several singe... | |
| Does a non-audiophile have to calibrate? Sorry my friend I mean no harm. I didn't want to candy coat the situation.I am sure there are others that are thinking the same thing..but aren't going to say it.I hope you truly enjoy your system and will grow to appreciate it even more in time. | |
| Does a non-audiophile have to calibrate? Nothing wrong with Monster power centers...if it's not that important to you why bother? You clearly don't have the time or drive to want to deal with the stuff.That is the difference between an audiophile and someone just looking for some good tu... | |
| Does a non-audiophile have to calibrate? Wow looks like you jumped right in Cap ! If not an audiophile ..you will be one soon enough! It takes time and a lot of listening to tune your ears. It's just something that will come in time.You can start with a sound pressure meter and run your ... | |
| AMP for Panasonic XR45 Drubin you can also...if you have digital cable or satellite. Feed your digital output from the cable/sat reciever into the unit. And listen to high quality playback on music and movie channels. | |
| need more smoothness If your already using copper ICs and speaker cables.Next step would be a speaker with a silk / textile dome tweeter. Preferable a 1st order crossover..I find the 1 st order gives you the highs/detail on most designs but doesn't throw them at you I... | |
| Looking for a used $500-$700 amp to warm up sound Honestly my friend maybe you should look at other speakers.. if not happy with the treble of the Paradigms. I say again why waste the money trying to change the characteristics of the speaker by covering it up with an amplifier? There's surely a s... | |
| Best $1k pair of floor standing speakers? Hello Gitarretyp I see you really like the Eminents. I talked to Bruce Thigpen for an hour or so a couple of months ago. I still haven't had the chance to listen to his speakers yet thou. Hard to locate them setup. Most people don't know he holds ... | |
| 2ch HT spkr: Aerial 7B; Dyn S3.4; or Solil 6.3? The Sols 6.3s really don't need much power...oh man will they rock out thou! I felt no need to have a sub on when I ran these fullrange. This is one manufacture that didn't play with the specs to much. These speakers certainly get down to the mid ... | |
| Best $1k pair of floor standing speakers? What about some Soliloquy 5.3s. Retail for 2200.00 can be had for $990.00 new. I don't think the best exists but these are darn good. It was a Class B recommended speaker by Stereophile. | |
| What speakers would make sense with a 110w SS amp? My vote is for Magnepans.Depending on how far you listen from the speakers and the model of the Maggies you pick,this will be the determining factor of the power you need. Maggies impedance is a steady load and more efficient than one might think.... | |
| Amp for Vienna Acoustic Mozart speakers I am going to agree with Jmcgrogan on this. Don't dig yourself a money pit trying to make a speaker do things it really isn't the best at.No speakers perfect but you can find a speaker with the qualities you seek without dropping 5k.I have an audi... | |
| best for home theater? revel or aerial acoustics? Get yourself the new Deftecs BP7000sc series if you want HT. These are meant for HT and have few peers if your planning to spend that kind of money.I beg to differ on Revels being built like tanks... you must mean the F50 on up. Below that they ar... | |
| Best affordable amp for Thiel CS3.6 How about some Monarchy SE-160s hybrid monoblocks. I've seen these as low as $1800.00 a pair. May add some sweetness to the Thiels.Good Luck! |
