| Speakers in the 5-6K$ region & their components Another small company to look at is Chapman Audio Systems. The T-5 is a 3-way (I know you were looking for a 2-way) floorstander within your budget that is very well worth checking out. | |
| Kef reference one, Recommend a SS amp < 5K I don't think it's a power issue, but need to find the right synergy. I currently drive my Reference 5s with a single MC275 and have no problem with bass output. I've also ran them with an Audia Flight FL Two integrated (100 wpc) and a Mark Levi... | |
| Tube amp Questions Specs I saw said 87.5db sensitivity. Not great, but not too bad. I would check out PrimaLuna offerings for great price:performance. | |
| Looking to buy floor standing speakers in $1000 per speaker range. I heard a pair of Klipsch RP 280Fs yesterday that blew me away and at 98 db, you can run them with anything. They were used for $675, but saw on the Klipsch website you can get them for $479/ea with free shipping and 30 day return. | |
| Would you go all 1 brand for electronics? My grandfather had an SAE system back in the day with first Walsh Ohm speakers I ever saw. | |
| Need Small Bookshelf Speakers With a Big Sound The de Capos are awesome but very far from small with that 8" woofer and a bit more than $2k unless you go used. | |
| Marantz TT15S1 Turntable. Any opinions 1500.00 Budget. Recommendations I might have missed it, but where are you located? | |
| Would you go all 1 brand for electronics? I agree, so that's why I said "can be" instead of "are." I have not personally heard a built-in perform at the stand alone level, but not ready to say definitively that it does not exist.Regarding your thoughts on having a single piece of electro... | |
| Would you go all 1 brand for electronics? Some say that built-in phonos can be as good as a stand alone (DarTZeel, Audio Note, Luxman for instance), but I have not personally heard them.My C1100 preamp is superb in every way except for the built-in phono. I tried really to love it but ju... | |
| Marantz TT15S1 Turntable. Any opinions 1500.00 Budget. Recommendations The tables in this class are all pretty close and the Marantz will serve you well. It really comes down to where you want to put more emphasis up front - table/arm vs cart. mattmiller's recommendation of an RP3/DV 10X5 is a solid solution if you... | |
| Stand mount choice I spoke with him and he would be ok with shipping to the UK if you are willing to pay for it (said it shouldn't be too much). If you would like his contact information, please send me a message and I’ll get it to you. | |
| Retooling the system upward?? What speakers would be a major upgrade over GET model 7's? In that price range, you should at least audition the Tannoy Revolution XT 8F if you can. | |
| Speakers with warm treble and good bass PMC Twenty series is all that. NEAT Motive series if your room is small/medium size. | |
| Upgrade Opinions, Thorens vs VPI @sbank, no I didn't. I tested my table and found it was running at 36 rpm so did some quick research on motor controllers. I really liked the size and flexibility of the Phoenix products (not to mention the price) vs. the VPI SDS. With the tabl... |
