| Which preamp to buy? And now for something completely different. I don't subscribe to the "all Krells are bright,(etc.)". I think the KSA 250 might even be a bit warm. If you want to balance the sound that attracted you to the KSA 250 in the first place with some tube... | |
| Thiel CS 5i, 7.2. and others I haven't heard the 7.2's. I haven't heard any speakers that bettered than the 5i's. That said, I think they are more demanding about room and placement than other Thiels I've heard, and man oh man do they need a serious amplifier budget to really... | |
| favorite pass amp? I've only heard a few of Nelson Pass's amps, but, the X1000's may be the best amps I've ever heard. Sorry, I can't offer you relevant advise. | |

| Speaker placement: On the rug OK? I prefer the speakers on the rug as this may reduce the chance for some early sound reflection. | |
| Long Wall Speaker Placement: Pros and Cons? While I have never owned planars, I prefer long wall placement. I suspect that your bass resonse will actualy improve. Having greater distance from side wall reflections may improve clarity. My only suggestion is to place some foam padding to abor... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? Mmakshak, isn't that true for all musical reproduction mediums? | |
| Power for Thiel 7.2 I'd suggest the Krell KMA 400's. | |
| Do Audiophiles blow speakers? I have been known to use such a technique for popping dented soft dome tweeters. What can I say, I love my system. |
