I love the Virgo II's... but as I got more into kayaking I pulled some money out of my syetem and now use Meadowlark Audio Kestrel Hotrods on Symposium Svelte Shelves. THey really are great the... | |
| Speakers to pair with Arcam A65 plus under $600? I think that there is a pair of used meadowlark kestrels on augiogon for $695. These will give you wonderful sound and remember you may be paying a few dollars more than you want to but you wont be needing stands as you will with most of the othe ... | |
| What's the best isolation system? I tried the sistrum rack with the encouragement of a dealer and in my opinio they are really quite awful... bright and hashy and not mention UGLY.I have also had the opportunity to try the nuence platforms and while I find them to be OK and an imp... | |

| What's the best isolation system? The Sistrum racks are really quite awful... bright and hashy and not mention UGLY. If you take the time to listen you will find the Symposium products to be the only real thing out there. | |
| What's the best isolation system? Symposium is the only way to go. | |
| Advice on replacing Vandersteen 2's The new Meadowlark Osprey is amazing if he can stretch to $2995. Otherwise I would go for The Kestrel Hotrod which has a much more focused sound than the Vandy's and will give you goo bass, they have to be one of the best Jazz speakers out there. | |
| smallest highend manuf.of intergrated amp The 47 Labs shigaraki is it at $1500 it has 3 input and one set of outs. You can hide the power supply behind the rack. The amp is the size of a small paperback. | |
| Is it too mismatched to pair Maggie 1.6 & NAD 370? This new NAD is surprisingly good put all your old NAD stereotypes away, this on can play. The only way to find out if anything sounds good is to audition it yourself. | |
| Lester Young The Lester Young Trio with Nat cole and Buddy Rich is fantastic as are the Complete Aladin recordings. | |
| CDP with "holographic" sound for less than 1000? Unless a tube stage is done extremely well in a much more expensive player than what is being discussed here I would stay away from them. | |
| "Used"Revel F-30 or AP's Virgo II: Better Value? OOOhh but the Parsifals are so nice, you really made out. I need to start bringing some ugly stuff home and see if I can end up with Parsifals too. | |
| CDP with "holographic" sound for less than 1000? Philips DVD/SACD 1000 now available new for $995. Verstality and excellent sound. | |
| "Used"Revel F-30 or AP's Virgo II: Better Value? The Virgos are wonderful and much more coherent than the Revel's. I feel like their bass response will much better suit your size room as the f30's already have a tendancy to boom and have trouble integrating the bass with the othe drivers and plu... | |
