Is it possible to have Good Imaging close to wall
Psag, if with your eyes close you can tell when listening to music that you are in a small room, than that is because of the secondary reflections. If there will be no secondary reflections you will not be able to tell whether the room is large or... 
Is it possible to have Good Imaging close to wall
Bo, the reality is that people are misinformed and ill advised everywhere not just in audio.People with less Sounds like a great motto for all audiophiles. We all are missing something, e.g. a deeper sound-stage, or a wider sound-stage, or deep ba... 
Is it possible to have Good Imaging close to wall
O_holter, it was certainly not my intension to criticise Mapman. Regarding your comment about great speaker, it is a matter of setting up properly the speakers in the room - the room will always "sing" along with any speakers irrespectively whethe... 
Is it possible to have Good Imaging close to wall
Mapman, the size of the soundstage and the size of the instruments within are determined mostly by the room and speaker placement. It really is very similar with the bass, i.e. because of the room you can get a lot of bass or no bass.As I have men...

I am sorry Mapman but you are mistaken. As Onhwy61 is saying, you are confusing acoustic reflections contained in the recorded signal with those reflections produced by playback in a room.To reproduce the spatial information recorded by the sound ... 
Accuphase a-70 is a good option?
Orionpcgames, as I have written in my first post in this thread, it depends on the type of music you are listening and how loud are you usually listening to music. We can not help you unless you provide us with this information 
Accuphase a-70 is a good option?
Two Accuphase power amps in bridged mode is a very good suggestion Dave. However, to keep the budget close to the price of one A-70 amp I would recommend two A-46 power amps instead of two A-70.Two years ago there was a show organised by the Alpha... 
Accuphase a-70 is a good option?
Accuphase amps pair very well with Dynaudio speakers, and according to my experience are significantly better than the Mcintosh ones. However, whether or not the A-70 has enough power for your C-4 depends on how loud you listen to music and what t... 
B&W 800D vs. 800Diamond on Accuphase amp
Check out also my comment in the thread below:Best preamplifier, amplifier for B&W 800 Diamond 
B&W 800D vs. 800Diamond on Accuphase amp
I have actually attended an Accuphase-B&W show organised by Alpha Hi-End in Antwerp a few years ago where they have compared the B&W 800 diamond with the B&W 802 diamond speakers using the following Accuphase set-up: A-45 power amp, C-... 
Pass Labs amps and Avantgarde speakers
I tried a 10 watt amp and I have to say... folks who use less than 20 watts for Duo's are simply not doing them justice. They send very anemic and simply cannot keep up and higher volumes such as electronic music, rock, or movies.10 watts is more ... 
Accuphase Power Amps
Simon, if I understand your post correctly, you have bought a P-4200 power amp. If that is indeed the case, congratulations!Dave and Simon, the C-28xx pre-amps are actually significantly better than the C-24xx. The C-28xx models stand out as being... 
Accuphase Power Amps
Sorry for the very late reply guys.Tls49, indeed I meant to say speaker sensitivity not efficiency. Thanks for correcting me. I am fully aware of the difference between the two. English is not my first language, and even though I am writing and sp... 
Gryphon vs. McIntosh
I would not buy the Tabu for two reasons: 1) is rather old, and 2) it is cheaper to buy a NAD Silver line S300 integrated amp (also rather old) which seems to be the same integrated as the Tabu but with a different cover.I also know that it is rat... 
A49 Arcam
Jeff, I merely wanted to steer the discussion in the right direction, i.e. not to talk about A49 but about A49 vs. E-460. I see now, though, that while the OP has asked in his initial post about A49 vs. E-490, the title of the thread is A49.
