| Perplexed on how single driver speakers can cover such a large Hz range marshinski15 You have some great help here from the replies. I will will give you my take. First up, in the normal run of things you would like to have a full range of frequency response. But (1) the midrange is where most of the music is; (2)... | |
| Pass Labs Speaker Choices 150.8 & Magico A3. The 150 watts on tap is more than sufficient to drive the speakers. | |
| Which Solid State amplifier would you recommend for my budget? Just a general observation here, as I have not heard any of your shortlist. Please let us know your speakers. The speaker / amplifier combination should always be considered together. | |
| Sad songs- We love them- We need them Great post. Not just that but many meaningful replies. From a classical perspective: Der Leiermann by Schubert. Just soul crushing. Death of Melisand by Sibelius. title says it all. Intermezzo from the Crown of India by Elgar. Surely the mo... | |
| Recommend me a Class A Integrated Amp (or sound like Class A amp) Yeah, sorry cant help you there. My two cents worth are restricted to actual products or where I have hears are related goods. | |
| Recommend me a Class A Integrated Amp (or sound like Class A amp) Dude, first up it is best practice to say what speakers you are running. This is because Class A is spectacularly inefficient that this becomes highly relevant. (I run Pass X150.8). Two really fabulously options: Perreaux - these are stonkingl... | |

| Michael Fremer leaves Analog Planet Mikey is great but I am just going to stick with Stereophile. I just cannot follow someone who espouses 'high end' cables. | |
| Best Phono Stage For the dosh you have you can afford a phono stage with an LCR Network. Vida and Allnic will do nicely. | |
| How do you make a final decision on a DAC part of the fun in this hobby is to scratch the itch... i am itchy like all the time ...😂 Well said sir! Go to Audio Science Review and look at the test results. Choose a DAC within your budget with the least distortion and best linearity. No... | |
| The sound quality from DACs - is it all the same? Dacs do sound different. Those who say otherwise have some combination of poor ears, poor amplification, poor setup and especially poor speakers. | |
| Will I benefit from a subwoofer with 20Hz speakers? If you listen at mid volumes (or your room is large) then a sub should be of some benefit, If you listen some of the time at low volumes then a sub will always be of great benefit. You can do the equalising thing (early amps always had a 'loudne... | |
| Looking for warm tube preamp (should pair well with Pass power amp), budget $6000 The simple way is to find a pre based on 6H30 tubes. Ayon and AR do this. Others as well I am sure. | |
| Most beautiful turntable under $5k Looks are very important. No need for apologies at all. My axe to grind is that it is not, or rather should not, be a beauty vs performance continuum. Rather they are not mutually exclusive and I say: Why not both? Another vote for the Techni... | |
| Advice needed on MC cartridges I have the 2MBronze , and a Benz Wood SL and a Charisa Audio Ref1. (Also the A3s) The two MCs are a significant step up over the Ortofon. Cartridges are one the Big Three: Microphones, Cartridges, Speakers. They are transducers and make the mo... |
