| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! jetter, I understand the point quite well. dguitarnut (and others) keep telling us to keep this thread "on track." What is the track, pray tell? It started off with WC looking for the "best" stereo amplifier under $30k, and then progressed into ... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @dguitarnut, I love how you consistently admonish others for their posts while never contributing anything relevant yourself. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to recognize that! | |

| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @dguitarnut, you mean to get a life like you waiting anxiously for an anonymous person on the interweb to post his opinion on an amp that he’s listened to for an hour and then will sell off even though it’s like lifting a veil in his system? Go... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! geoffkait11,378 posts09-11-2018 12:39pmJust a quick note to say Aerospace is not just the Government and not just weapon systems. There is also commercial aviation, which is huge. You, know, Boeing, Lear, etc. and all the light aircraft. It’s a... | |
| Best used integrated for under $5000 Now back to our regularly scheduled program after that (not so) brief commercial break.... | |
| Best used speakers under $10000 Your experience with the Ref 5 does not surprise me. I tried mine with an MC275 and, though nice, it lacked in punch and overall dynamics. They really like a high-current amp with lots of power. I have switched over to the Electrocompaniet Nemo... | |
| Best used speakers under $10000 Based on your criteria, you should also look at PMC fact.8. You should be able to get these in your price range new and they have excellent clarity and are wonderful with the type of music you listed. I have a pair in my bedroom system and work ... | |
| KEF blades 2 or Dynaudio C4? yyzsantabarbara, my room is a only a bit bigger than yours. I did not have the Blade 2s in my room, but my dealer had a room where we could replicate my room fairly well so, though not perfect, I was able to get a feel for how they would sound wh... | |
| KEF blades 2 or Dynaudio C4? I compared the Blade 2 with the Reference 5 and found that the Reference 5 worked better in my room. The Blades do better away from walls but I was not able to position my speakers more than a foot and a half away from the back wall. The tunable... | |
| Narrowed to 3: 802D3, Sopra 3, Reference 3 I have the Ref 5 and can say that they are detailed and throw a wide and precise image. The bass is fast and they go deeper than you think they should. I did compare them with the B&Ws and the Ref 5 was a step above to my ears. | |
| LOUNDSPEAKER FOR $10,000.00 PER PAIR In that price range, I love the PMC fact.8s I have in my bedroom system. They are fast, clean and articulate with excellent imaging for the type of music you like. | |
| Best choice for approx. $3000 cartridge on VPI JMW 10, TNT III I have not had a chance to try any of the ZYX carts, but have tried a few Urushi variants. I have a TNT II with a Graham 1.5 and now use a Kiseki Purpleheart. They can be had for $3200 and is a fantastic cart. From the Kiseki website:VPI Founde... | |
| Is Usher still around Yes, Usher is definitely still around and is, in fact, touring now. Last I heard, he was trying to get the herpes lawsuit against him dismissed. I have not seen any updates on new releases, however. | |
| McIntosh Guy Going Tubes? (Maybe?) bradlye, if you do a Google search on the C1100, you'll find a larger discussion on another forum. Feel free to PM me if you would like more of my personal impressions. |
