| Revel Salons driven by VAC 140 monoblocks?? Revel uses Levinson to design. Why steer away from that? | |
| Is $18,000 enough for a high end HT? Dude, don't believe the people who say you can't have a great system. You can.Also, video is the most satisfying part of HT and outweights audio imho. That big screen is where your audience will be glued. I would for instance definitely go with a ... | |
| Krell FPB CX with Placette Passive Pre I would drive by the Krell preamps, and get a good tube preamp. CAT/Hovland/VTL maybe etc. | |
| Best electronics for Vandersteen 5/5A Cary V12 monos seemed perfect on the 5s at the HE show two years back. Magical sound. | |
| Opinions on Dynaudio Confidence C4 Jack,I used Acoustic Zens with success on my 1.3SEs, and wouldn't hesitate to use them with C4s (i almost bought C2s, but presented some room issues) | |
| Power Cords for Jeff Rowland's Why do you want to change?Rowland uses Cardas, so why bother? I guess you might toss an Elrod into the mix to try out for fun? | |
| Levinson match up with Rowland You might want to call Ambrosia Audio/Video in LA. They sell both lines and probably could help you.Keith | |
| Dynaudio 1.3SE question Dennis,I haven't heard the BAT 300xSE which is the new integrated (priced from 4k-6k new depending on options--I would go for remote and SE pre so 5500). However, speaking to BAT, they think it is an excellent match for the S25s (what i was going ... | |
| For SF Cremona: JF Concentra 1 or Plinius 8150? Don't laugh, but Krell 300il is supposedly a great match for SFs. | |
| Dynaudio 1.3SE question I had the 1.3SE with a Concentra II, and didn't find it a great combo. Another guy on audioasylum had one with Ann 25s, and wasnt impressed.I would look toward plinius or bat instead on integrateds... | |
| Help Sub $2k Speakers for Plinius Integrated?? Dyn 1.3SEs. Supposedly an excellent match with Plinius integrated btw. | |
| dynaudio or M & k for home theater Perkadin--Wilson doesn't use dyn drviers anymore, and only used the woofers in the W/Ps. Tweeters have been focal for sometime, and scanspeak on the midranges. I was a Wilson owner btw (Cub IIs) as well, right before I got my 1.3SEs.An MTM is a li... | |
| Preamp Choice: Rogue 99 Magnum vs. BAT VK30 I find both the Rogue 99 and Bat preamps (not amps) to be very veiled. I prefer the Cary SLP98 to both of them, which seemed more transparent in auditions. It also is a piece of eye jewelry ;)Of course all 3 colour the sound, which may or may not ... | |
| best used speaker for around 2500? The Dynaudio 1.3SE is the best speaker I have heard under 5k. Used here for 2k defines a "steal" to me. | |
| a system to complement my dynaudio anniversary 25 I don't think so. Your 25s are superrevealing, and need better electronics. I would look to a BAT integrated, or go separates and get Krell FPB with a tube preamp.The Classe is a bad match with Dynaudio i think. Plinius gets raves, but there is an... |
