| Harbeth Speakers I also do not understand what you mean. Since you have both why don't you try them and see which combo you like better. | |
| Volume? Tuners are also higher output just like CD'S (2 volts).So what you have is normal. | |
| Grado Sonata, Signature 8MZ, Shure V15VXMR Limono,where do you get that incorrect information from? Grado's do not match well with heavy arms and load is not a factor with Grado's. Why would you add a step up transformer to a mm cartridge? I use my Grado's with a SME 309 medium mass arm an... | |
| Harbeth Speakers I can't comment on the 2's,but all I can say is that I have the 3's and they better any monitor I have owned(Spendor,Kef,etc).As far as overkill,what do you mean? I use mine with Quicksilver tube mono's. | |
| Speakers that can be placed close to the back wall Harbeth P3ESR or Spendor 3/5. Had both and no problem. They are both sealed! | |
| Loss of bass & full spectrum sound How do you know that the cable is not defective?How do you know the binding posts on your amp are not defective? I would try some inexpensive speaker wire like zip cord in place of the Audioquest and see how that works. You will solve this problem... | |
| Loss of bass & full spectrum sound Did your speakers come with straps to connect the woofer and tweeter posts if you did not want to biwire? If they did just reinstall them,if not just use a small piece of wire and connect them together. Remember positive to positive and negative t... | |
| Loss of bass & full spectrum sound Sounds like something is wrong with the biwire cable. If you can bypass it give that a try! It might open up when warmed up. | |
| So what's a good preamp? Check out the E.A.R. 834P. A few are listed here. | |
| Audio Research LS3B or Classé Model Five Keep the Class'e. Years ago I had the model four and my friend had Audio Research SP9. After comparing both he sold the Audio Research and bought a Class'e. I can't comment on the LS3B but it probably has the same house sound as the others in that... | |
| Accurate human voice reproduction Harbeth P3ESR is voiced for the human voice! No other speaker I have owned comes close! | |
| Ground Loop Hum The only thing that is grounded is your amp. You removed the ground off all the other stuff. The grounds are not interconnected via the amp. | |
| Where do I go from here? Tube preamp! | |
| Change INTEGRATED or Add AMPS? Makes sense,go for it! | |
| Change INTEGRATED or Add AMPS? Give it a try. If it does not work out you can always sell the Rotel and get a preamp. |
