| wilson sophias to monitors Really Tvad and Tpreaves -Do you really think he can't get as much satisfaction from the right pair of monitors AND get satisfaction from his relationship? | |
| wilson sophias to monitors I've been mighty impressed by the C1's with Gamut amplification. | |
| Bryston 4B ST Replacement I think the Gamut amplifiers have a very smooth yet highly resolved sound. A solid state amplifier I would recommend. | |
| Bryston 4B ST Replacement Gamut is very impressive | |
| Opinions please on a starter audiophile system? Tell us more about the kind of sound you like. What is important to you? | |
| Killing echo in bedroom.. I've seen padded headboards. Maybe that would help. | |
| Dealing with a large TV between speakers Tholt - take your TV out temporarily and see if it is indeed the problem. Thus we can stop speculation on that!Are you sure the absorbers are good behind your speakers? In my room, I preferred diffusors, but I was using Quads then. I would say, ne... | |

| Suggestion of Amplifier for Dynaudio Confidence C4 I was recently impressed by the C1's paired with Gamut D200 monoblock amplification. I'd heard great things about the Gamut line prior. To me the Gamuts sounded agile, smooth and musical - no solid state edge at all. May be worth checking into. | |
| Quad owners I had poor luck deadening behind the Quads. I put home made diffusors behind them, which helped a lot. They are "skyline" designs (2D diffusors). That said, I still preferred them 5 feet out, and had the space to do it. | |
| W/ $200 what amp would you buy? I would push my budget up just a bit, and go for an Aragon 2004. Great amp for the money. Sounded excellent on my Quads. In that price range, and associated increments, you do get what you pay for. | |
| Magnepan 20.1 improved midrange planar units? Maybe he's referring to the generation before it - was it the 20R? I've not seen Magnepan making changes without indicating it in the model number. |
