| Magico Q7 . . . wow I saw that too, Mapman. The Avantgarde Trio is one horn system I've always wanted to hear, but I haven't had the chance. Their value has really dropped, but I think it is because of a lack of US support and that they really are a niche product. I'... | |
| Difference between Pass Labs XA160.5 an X600.5? Great question for Pass Labs or Reno HiFi. You should try contacting them directly. I have the XA160.5 driving the Magico Mini 2 (4ohm, 86dB). It is a very difficult load but my 160.5 seem to be more than powerful enough. My room is only 16' X 15'... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow That was rather funny. | |
| Granit amp stands are they killing my sound? I get your point Syntax. Very funny post! Explain what is between your amps and your Vibraplanes. Also between your MS and Basis turntables and their Vibraplanes. Do you think a hard ball or point sounds different from some rubber footer/insert un... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow I just looked up Suteetat system with the Q3 and it got me thinking about the Q7. I wonder if there will be second versions of the Q3 and Q5 with one woofer above the tweeter as in the new Q7. Perhaps the technological advances of the newest Q7 fl... | |
| Why does my system sound so shrill and distorted? Ohnofiasco, have you experimented with cartridge loading. What you describe could be the result of too high a setting. If adjustable, lower it to the next lower setting and listen. If its better, lower it again until you find the best setting.SRA/... | |
| Stylus Drag Tony, Thanks for your very informative comments on this thread. I was not aware of difference between open and closed loop systems. According to the manual, my SME turntable uses a closed loop speed control system. Perhaps it is one of the few bel... | |
| Granit amp stands are they killing my sound? Thanks Palasr. I'd like the compressor out of site. I know they can be quiet as I've heard a Jen-Air? at Sounds of Silence, the Vibraplane distributor. I just don't want one in my formal living room. I wish I had a dedicated audio room.I also have... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Thanks Audiofreak. Those are interesting choices. Have you heard the Q1? I'm just curious. | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Audiofreak, Please list a speaker that costs half the price of the Q1 ($25K) and sounds better. Also for the Mini 2 ($30K) , and the Q3 ($40K). I'd like to know what to audition for my next upgrade. I assume you have heard these particular Magico ... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Where are the moderators? | |
| Granit amp stands are they killing my sound? Thanks Syntax. Those results seem impressive. Are your amps the Lamms with tubes, SS or hybrid? Do you think the most improvement with the VP would be with tube amps or would SS also benefit so dramatically?I'm thinking of getting two of the activ... | |
| I just heard the Wilson Alexandria XLF's Wednesday Wilson speakers also sound great with the large Pass Labs class A amps. | |
| Granit amp stands are they killing my sound? Syntax, could you please describe the effect of placing a Vibraplane under your Lamm amps? I have one under my turntable, and I agree with you. It is so effective that I closed that chapter. I have heavy SS amps sitting directly on my floor. I'd l... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Why not start a thread about Charles' BPT unit? This thread is about the Magico Q7. |
