| PMC ,Harbeth or B&W? DB1 sounds very much like Quad 12LS i used to own...very detailed,transparent, and excellent imaging...however....like the Quads...I found them to bright and fatiguing...they both have exceptional bass for monitors...what is up with the Brits thes... | |
| Paradigm Studio 60 vs. PSB stratus silver i I hate to mix things up...and I am familiar with both of the speakers you mentioned(I auditioned them as well)...but in the most direct terms...these are a lateral move at best in terms of the qualities you suggested...I would contact Roy at Green... | |
| Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers Before you pull the trigger...audition the Green Mountain 1.5i at 5k...I have a strong sense you will not be dissapointed...it is also Phasecorrect like the Vandies...good luck...call Roy at GReen mTn with any questions...he is one cool dude .... | |
| Is "live" music sound possible for under $1K I can only echo what others have stated...intergrated amp...older Scott or Jolida for tubes...used NAD,creek,rotel.etc for solid state...efficient monitors(which dont require alot of power) of 90db or greater(maybe Castle Richmonds?)...and a curre... | |
| Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers Have to plug Green Mountain Audio as well...I have there Europas($900 monitors)...can only dream about there higher end models...good luck... | |
| Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers Wow..I wish I had your problem...not sure what model...but the THIEL range would be something to look into...phasecorrect design as well...Meadowlark also comes to mind... | |
| Metal speakers. How are they? I like metal...but it has to have spandex and hair spray to sound its best...long live Diamond Dave! ON a more serious note...I prefer the natural tonal quality of treated paper... | |
| Speakers: What's MOST important to you?... Non-fatiguing sound=True time/phase design,low difraction enclosure=transparency...I can give up top-end "sparkle" and deep bass for a very cohesive,musical,and involving midrange...where 90% of music is produced.... | |
| Energy Veritas 2.1 sound too lean GIve tube power a try...a nice round midrange would give the Energys some needed weight and warmth...Jolida comes to mind.... | |
| Basic question about impedance and watts Try Nad power...cheap,clean, and very musical...the c370 is in your ballpark..more than enough power for Thiels...I use the c350 with 4 ohm loads...and believe me...it is very loud in my 16 x 20 room...good luck... | |
| Speaker Upgrade? Well...sounds like you are more unhappy with the Vandies cosmetics than anything else...and the Europas look cool in a Stanley Kubrick retro way...Joseph AUdio makes a nice monitor under 2k that looks great as well...good luck...many choices in th... | |
| Speaker Upgrade? Also...I previously owned the QUad 12ls prior to my Europas...so I am very familiar with all the speakers you mentioned...once again...keep your vandies...happy holidays | |
| Speaker Upgrade? Keep the Vandies...the above mentioned speakers are not substantial enough of an upgrade in my humble opinion my dealercarries Vandersteen,Spendor, and Sonus Faber,,,however...if WAF is a must...then the entry level SOnus Faber...for the record...... | |
| Linn Movie Classik vs Linn Move Classic Di I would buy the original CLassik...they can be found used for $7-800 on this site...good luck...I wouldnt pay what they are asking for retail...or the extra 1k for the newer model...there are plenty other options at those price points...such as se... | |
| will monitors work in a large room? listener...most speakers would benefit from a sub...even full range ones...albeit a musical sub set up properly...no sub also beats a cheap sub in my opinion... |
