| belles 150 reference vs six pacs Both are excellent amplifiers. I believe the Belles would be a better match because of its' ability to deliver higher power and more current to the 12s. | |
| Review: Goldring GR 1.2 Turntable Nice review but the P2 has not been discontinued. It has been updated. | |
| Vandersteen 2ces, McCormack 0.5 and which pre-amp The Rotel is the limiting factor. I don't believe the amp upgrade would be beneficial if it stays in the system. | |
| High power amp for monitors? You have to double power to get a 3db increase in output. Shouldn't make much of a difference on a pure power basis.Of course, the amp may have other properties that you like better. | |
| Rega P25...upgrade or replace Verify the speed of the Rega. They tend to run fast. My belief is the cartridge is your limiting factor. While OK, it is not the last word in resolution. Consider a Sumiko Blackbird. | |
| Vandersteen 2ces, McCormack 0.5 and which pre-amp Being CD only I recommend either a quality passive volume control or a CD player with volume control. No preamp is better than no preamp. | |
| Where to spend some money? Look at the Portal Panache integrated to replace the Rotel pieces. | |
| magnepan mmgs-buy zero autoformers or stands 1st? Each will do the job. Can you listen to both? My gut feel is the Musical Fidelity would be the most musical butKrell has its' fans. | |
| My Martin Logan SL3's are warped,what should I do? Here's a thought. Call Martin Logan. They provide excellent support and can give you answers instead of conjecture. | |
| Vandersteen 2Ce Signature or Quad 22L Steve, the 22L is not a panel speaker. | |
| Vandersteen 2Ce Signature or Quad 22L I've owned and like both. The Vandy will provide better bass but the Quad is much more transparent. The Music Reference is very good and will work well with either. I would go with the Quad. | |
| Alison Krause + Union Station "Live" LP It probably would sound better from an analog master. However, DSD is excellent. If this had been available when CD was launched (almost 24 years ago!) digital may have totally wiped out the LP. Who knows? | |
| Cal Audio ? They made good products but have been out of business for years. Support will be an issue if repairs are needed. | |
| magnepan mmgs-buy zero autoformers or stands 1st? Cooch, I'm not sure why you posted the question. Buy the autoformers (they're good), buy the stands (their great), break in the speakers for 300-500 hours (they will improve)and keep the same amp and you STILL won't be hearing the speakers at thei... | |
| magnepan mmgs-buy zero autoformers or stands 1st? Yes, I have and so have many others. If you're happy that's fine. The amp is not a good match for the speakers.You asked for input and a few of us suggested that autoformers or stands should not be the focus. One of the nice things about advice, y... |
