| Going backwards: what speakers best match a pair of REL s/510s @vacountryboy yes, by far the best way to blend the RELs is to connect them via high level (the speakon connection on the REL side and the spades on the amp side). This way, the signal is identical between the speakers (from the amp) to the REL (f... | |
| If Nordost and AQ Speaker cables had a baby? Silversmith Fidelium is definitely the answer. All the details of the Nordost, but with the "flesh and bones" of Cardas Clear Beyond. (haven't had enough time with AQ to really compare, although the Clear Beyond did outperform a pair of William Te... | |
| Fezz Audio Mira Ceti 300b? @backnyak Ive decided to go in a different direction | |
| Going backwards: what speakers best match a pair of REL s/510s Before you do anything, make sure you’re using the high level input on the REL’s. That will give you by far the best integration. Then spend time moving them around until you have the cleanest bass output. Only then start to use the volume and cro... | |
| Integrated Amp Phono Section Definitely Luxman… the 590axii (albeit “only” 30 watts…) has an amazing phonostage. And regarding the power requirement… don’t stare yourself blind on the numbers… the 590 drove my Watt Puppy 8’s to volumes way beyond what I could tolerate | |
| COINCIDENT FRANKENSTEIN 300B STEREO I can’t compare the stereo to the Willsenton but I can with the monoblocks. First, you’re comparing power amp to an integrated so not exactly apples to apples… The Willsenton is nice, but it’s not on the level with the Franks… the Coincident’s... | |
| Which Hegel Amp with LRS+ 390 at least or if you stretch the budget, the 590. The LRS+ are power hogs | |
| Downsizing: Separates>Integrated --PSAudio>Pass Labs I would look for a Gryphon Diablo 300. Virtually no compromise compared to what you have today and albeit relatively large and most definitely heavy, a single component that can makes downsizing very palatable. | |
| Fezz Audio Mira Ceti 300b? @carlsbad2 I owe you an apology, that came across completely wrong. What I'm looking for is someone that has personal experience with the Fezz Mira Ceti. And if anyone would like to offer up alternatives, I'm looking for an integrated 300b amp... | |
| Fezz Audio Mira Ceti 300b? @carlsbad2 All those you have listed are amplifiers, not integrated amplifiers... yes, I could go down that route, but I was looking to simplify the system... Also, the original question was if anyone had any experience with the Mira Ceti, do ... | |
| Fezz Audio Mira Ceti 300b? @carlsbad2 so what would be the options in this price range? | |
| The best speaker cables you’ve had Silversmith Fidelium (own), replaced Cardas Clear Beyond (which was the best I've heard and owned before the Silversmiths) | |
| Help with hiss A couple of things to try.. first, re-route all cables making sure that the low level cables (interconnects) are at 90deg to any power cable they need to cross. Make sure speaker cables are kept away from power cables. If that doesn't help, tu... | |
| Integrated SET... Thanks everyone! I think there's some real options in this string. I do want to stay with an integrated that does have a remote, at least for volume. I have no problem turning it on when I want to listen and change the input manually, but volu... | |
| Integrated SET... Coincident is interesting but I don’t believe they make an integrated amp… I’d rather not add a pre-amp, more power cords, another set of cables etc |
