| Which SS integrated amp to choose? Have a look at Marantz PM10 which doesnt get much love and I can't understand why. Makes no sense, it's really good. For the prices you can buy used it is crazy good. Been running it for two months and I am very impressed. Love the class D, n... | |
| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. Mario is spot on. | |
| New Marantz Reference, PM-10 Integrated, overpriced? That's the lowest price I have ever seen on the PM10 | |
| New Marantz Reference, PM-10 Integrated, overpriced? Just got it, breaking in still but very damn good. | |
| New DAC or New Streamer or New Streamer/DAC Thanks for the input. My unit is hard wired as well and I just bought a brand new router (Asus 3100 - high end) so I dont think it can be that. Right now I am having trouble connecting to the mini again after I connected into the Vega G2. Ugh...Wh... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer or New Streamer/DAC Update:I listened this weekend to my current setup (Aries Mini->Pass D1) vs the Vega original vs the Vega G2. Using the Aries mini as the source: Best to worst: Vega G2, D1, Vega original. It was kind of a toss-up between the G2 and the D1,... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer or New Streamer/DAC Good questions. I dont want to fuss with a server or PC and dont want a USB connection. All of those require USB and PCs are a hassle imho. A streamer can be part of a one box solution and independently stream Tidal and similar apps without a ... | |
| Power cord recommendation for a dac? Lessloss power cables | |
| New DAC or New Streamer or New Streamer/DAC Thank you all for the input, still collecting thoughts. As far as Servers and Roon, I am not interested. I want to be rid of all servers and computers and USB inputs, I like the one box solutions that either have built-in DACs or non-USB digital... | |
| Upgrading form Pass integrated amplifier to a better one I havent waded through all the posts, but I think you want a Krell. Try the Vanguard (seriously, even though much cheaper) or the new K300i. | |
| Recommnedation for the BEST SOUNDING integrated amp up to $3500 Krell Vanguard, its silly good. Would love to have it go head to head with the 507ux. I have heard you have to spend way more than the 507ux to better it. Its ridiculous. I was also a huge fan of the Krell s300i, but this is in another category. | |
| Speaker wire... Diy? For $50 I bought off Amazon 10 ft of Sky High Car Audio 8 gauge (yes, I said 8 gauge. It’s thick) OFC speaker cable and monoprice banana plugs. It sounds very good, I mean competitive with some $800 runs I have.http://skyhighcaraudio.com/ofc-3/ | |
| Krell Digital Vanguard Just picked up the standard Vanguard. Wow! Amazing bass, control, openness, clean sound. For what you can pick one up for now, it is an incredible buy. I also have a s300i and I think that is one of the best deals in audio for under $1500 used. | |
| Beginner choosing amp help Krell Vanguard. You can buy brand new on Ebay for $2600 as they are closing them out. Significantly more power and control than the Luxman. | |
| Which Integrated with Power,Current, and Bass Krell s300i never received the accolades like previous integrateds from Krell, but I think its a lot better than the old KAV series. It typically sells for less than 50% of retail. It sounds fantastic, bass, power, speed and control. It just ne... |
