| Integrated recommendation help Agree with Dave on the Krell Vanguard! If you can find a nice used one, it's down right highway robbery. Regards...... | |
| ProAc sound with SS vs tubes @badri .......I think you're going to be pleasantly surprised/relieved with the ProAc d20r in your room. As the saying goes, "you can't have it all". This particularly goes for speakers. Just the midrange and ribbon tweeter alone is worth the p... | |
| What's happened to Taters ? I know, I actually miss Zd's knowledge, experience and forthrightness. I tend to agree with much of what he says...... | |
| Keith Emerson of ELP.....Rest in Peace! Neither did I mapman. I sure wish I would have. I've sure enjoyed their many albums however. Really like Tarkus and the Works Vol. I and 2 albums. Regards........ | |
| Is there Really a difference between a Krell 400xi intergrated amp and the newer Vandgard? +1 @ dave_b. I'm with you. Where some of this garbage comes from is beyond me. A note to those who care to listen, do your research prior to spewing.Regards............. | |
| Bower and Wilkins and its relationship with Classe and Rotel I've heard them sound quite good and at other times, they left me scratching my head. I had B&W 805s with an Arcam integrated and Nina Simone was in the living room with me singing. I'm no huge fan, but why are they always being trashed? Ye... | |
| Dynaudio's best sounding bookshelf between $500-1000 No affiliation, however a pair of Totem Sig I just listed today....one owner and in mahogany! Price looks great to me. Good luck. | |
| Bower and Wilkins and its relationship with Classe and Rotel ........oh boy here we go again! Another love/hate B&W thread..... | |
| Advice on Purchase of Thiel Loudspeakers Curious, did you ever get your Thiels?Regards...... | |
| Naim Nait 5Si and Focal 807W Speakers Agree, the Creek 50A is quite refined, smooth and transparent. IMO, it is a step up from the Arcam and NAD. Mated with the matching CD50, it makes for an outstanding kit. I ran this pairing with Tannoy speakers and the sound was way above its p... | |
| Thiel Owners Thx. Jafant. Are you closer to choosing an amp and cables for your cs2.4se?Keep us posted. You're right, I'll get Thiels again. Will wait patiently for a pair of 2.7s. Regards.... | |
| How much do I have to spend? How did you make out with the Tannoys? When I had my Precision 6.2s they sounded great with the Creek 50A integrated and matching Creek CD player. When I "upgraded" to a different amp, I got the upper midrange glare you're referring to. The Cre... | |
| Is there Really a difference between a Krell 400xi intergrated amp and the newer Vandgard? Research dave_b and his take on the difference between the Krell 400xi and the Vanguard. I don't believe we're off topic here. Research, research and listen for yourself. Why regurgitate all of this when there is great insight that exists withi... | |
| Is there Really a difference between a Krell 400xi intergrated amp and the newer Vandgard? ......clarification, the best MIT or Transparent cables you can afford. Good luck. | |
| Is there Really a difference between a Krell 400xi intergrated amp and the newer Vandgard? Jafant......yes, Krell and MIT have a long history with Thiels. I've read that the Vandguard integrated is the real deal; resolution, warmth, not sterile, powerful at 200 w/channel ( 400 @ 4 ohms ) and harmonically accurate. I would think this a... |
