I have to admit that only with Audessey pro I get a full stealth sound. But you still need a closed subwoofer with only one unit on the front. Sub's with 2 units are not that great for stereo. Use the Jacintha is her name cd and use track 6. Most ...

Overwhole the AQ sub-1 is better than the bassline of Nordost. Which I sold a lot. It go's deeper and is better in the higher freq. as well cause of the silver it usses in the cable.

I sold Audioquest in the past a lot, but I didn't see them for some years on my radar. I sold the vipers as well. They were alright, but not that special. 2 years ago I needed 5 new interlinks for my 5 channel poweramp. I had orderd 5 Kimber selec...

I looked at the Taralabs website. 
What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
The kef you are using is not that special. I sold them, but I would not want them even for free in my room. Your system can reach a much higher level with other speakers. Filters of kef speakers are not the best. In 3d imaging kef is not even of t...

The low freq. was the part I did not like of the Frey. Wenn you go one level higher, you will much better low end. 
What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
I owned the XP-20 and XA100.5 as well. This set is a very musical and powerful combination. And can play very 3d holographic. The biggest fault you can make is buying a speaker which is not capable of a deep and wide stage. Like B&W. Which mos...

I see you use Arel sub. Those sub's I sold a lot in gthe past. Now I would give a negative advice. The reason is very simple. Tooooooo slow and downfiring has nothing to do with highend audio and becomming one with the rest. I have done a lot of t... 
What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
One advice is a small speaker and a subwoofer. Because this you can adjust very easily. I did this many times for small rooms. Gives better results then 1 pair of speakers. I had the 100.5 and XP20 as well. I would choose for a speaker which can g...

The thing I love about the Purist powercables is that the mid freq. are more open. Like a flower what comes to bloom. Low freq are more tight and better defined compared to Nordost. Makes your stage wider and deeper compared to Nordost. People of ...

Valhalla gives a lot of resolution ( details) but Audioquest sets everything better in place. I call this individual focus. During listening it is a lot more easy to focus on only one part of the recording. Wenn you go back to Valhalla it is less ... 
Who is the KING of MONOS?
The XA100.5 costs 2 times more. I cannot say the X250.5 has more drive. what I can say is that I prefer the X250.5 over the XA30.5. XA100.5 is more musical and more refined compared to the X250.5. It is difficult to judge because I have a differen...

I prefer the balance of the cble. I always give a cable a value for what it costs. For the money the Rev2 is better cable. Baldur Loudsprekercable has a more pleasent mid compared to the Frey. I like the loudspeakercable of Nordost the most. Nordo... 
Nordost ICs cause hum, replacement needed.
The focus and speed is exeptional. Wen it came out there was nothing for they money what was that fast and sharp focus. 
Who is the KING of MONOS?
That time I needed the money. Cause of my work they did cost me half of the new price. I could sell it for a lot of money. I have had the XA60.5 and 30.5 as well. And I liked them all. I bought the X250.5 a few weeks ago. To be unnest it is great ...
