| Aerial 10T Mk2 - Suitable Amplifier? I have had my 10T's since I bought them new in 2001 for $6,900 (with the Sound Anchor stands). Something equivalent would be at least $15K today. Fantastic, musical speaker. It's recommended that you have a high current amp with min 200 watts to ... | |
| Aerial Acoustics: 10T, CC5, and SR3 Value? Agreed. I've seen them typically offered on AG at $1,800. I still have my pair from 2001. Talk about a great value for some lucky buyer! | |
| Adding Tone Controls? Shakeydeal, you might want to read the recent review of the DSPeasker Dual Core in TAS. He addresses your blind bias towards equalization in very thoughtful way. He points out that the professionals that engineered the recordings you buy use EQ ex... | |
| Bob Carver LLC Black Beauty Review Jonathan Valin was very positive in his review in Audiogon, and he's a freak about uncolored accuracy. He said they were on the romantic side, and loved them anyway. | |
| Audio Research, next upgrade? I had an LS 26, and compared to what it replaced (a bottom of the line VTL tube pre), the low bass was anemic. You have good bass in your speakers and amp, so if you like low end extension and weight, replace the preamp. I went SS to match my amp,... | |
| Audio Research Ref 5 and Krell amps Boisehomes, I tried an LS26 with my Krell FPB400cx, running 10T's. It replaced a VTL tube pre at the bottom of the VTL line. It was very disappointing. The mid's were very nice, but the deep low end that 10T's are capable of disappeared. Really an... | |
| Min room size for Wilson Audio Sophia or WP8 Folks, any thoughts on a 14x14x8 room for the Sophia? I know, a square room is the work of the devil, but it's what I've got. I have room treatments already in place. | |
| What a better pre-amp Arc Ls-27 or Ref-3 Tmsorosk - How was the bass response on the LS27 vs. the Ref 3? As I said in a previous thread, I bought an LS26 and was disappointed by the poor bass extension and weight, so don't want to make that mistake again. | |
| What a better pre-amp Arc Ls-27 or Ref-3 What do you feel you are you missing that you are looking to the Ref 3 to improve? Obviously you aren't getting everything you wanted from the LS27 or you wouldn't be asking. | |
| low bass on Audio Research LS27 Thanks folks. About the power amp being a key component, especially for bass management - I agree! That's why I have a Krell FPB400cx - 400 watts of Krell bass. What has been shocking is how big a change in the overall character of the sound the p... | |
| the natural sound of a cymbal Nice answer rodman999! Spot on. (from one drummer to another!) | |
| Aerial 10T MK2 switch to active xover and/or more? I've owned my 10T's for 10 years now, in 2 different rooms. Some original reviews hinted at a slight bit of bloat in the mid bass in the 10T's. I experienced that with when I used a big Classe amplifier, and the problem disappeared when I changed ... | |
| Anybody heard the new Aerial 7T? I still have the 10T's I bought in 2000, and would love to hear a comparison with the nee 7t. | |
| Has anybody heard the new Audio Research LS 27? I owned an LS26. Lovely midrange,captivating overall sound, but anemic in the bass (extension and weight), so I sold it and went SS. I love the improved bass, but do miss that midrange magic. Does the LS27 improve in the bass area? I'd hate to was... | |
| Krell FPB 600 or 400cx? The bad rap Krell got in t about being bright, sterile etc. pertained to the pre 'c' and especially 'cx' models. My 400cx is smooth & warm and still has that famous Krell slam and bass control. If you want slam and incredible lower bass extens... |
