| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @thehorn Thanks! I do have a dedicated/treated room with no windows, albeit on the smallish side—12 x 14… | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @helomech Thanks--Your experiences mirrors mine to some extent. Years ago, I had an Odyssey product--I can’t remember the details, but I do recall the poor customer service. I also had a Cronus Magnum for a brief period, and I liked it a lot--How... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @thehorn I was a bit surprised by your assessment that my speakers are hard to drive--I was of the thought that they were average compared to something like Thiels. Although, I can understand where you are coming from--given your moniker. Howe... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T Thanks for all of the suggestions--especially the ones that were not on my radar! I do have a question regarding the internal DAC on some of these--It is not a "must have" at all, but I could foresee a use for it. I am curious as to how the S... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @chipcalzone I hear you...I will more than likely keep the Cayin and use the other one as a spare--So that I am not forced to pay the premium prices, Who would have thought we would be paying NOS prices for new production?? Even though I don't l... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @philgo01 Yep, that is my dilemma--either find something under $1000 for a spare, or spend more and replace. Before I purchased the Cayin, I had a Belles Aria that I got for a good price here on Audiogon. I prefer the Cayin, but I could live hap... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @panzrwagn Thanks--I have to admit that I initially dismissed Marantz (and other great products from the past) only because I assumed that the current products bear no resemblance to their predecessors. However, after doing a brief search, it is ... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @carlsbad Thanks--another possibility to check out! | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @dekay I paid almost $200 for a quad of Tung-Sol EL34Bs--which is close to double what Jim McShane was selling them for before the shortage, and the same price that I paid him for a quad of GL KT77s 18 months ago. I would guess that they have abo... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @jasonbourne52 Thanks! Another good recommendation of something I could at least have as a spare! | |
| Looking for an integrated amp to replace my Cayin A-50T @yogiboy Thanks--I was looking to get a recommendation that was not on my radar, and this may well fit the bill--The price is such that I would be able to keep both amps. | |
| Vandersteen 1Ci, Tekton Lore Reference, or Fritzspeaks Grove for a small room Here is the link to the Groves: http://www.audioasylumtrader.com/ca/listing/Speakers-Stand-Mounted/FritzSpeakers.Com/Grove/Custom-bu.... However, I am strongly leaning toward the Vandersteen’s! | |
| Vandersteen 1Ci, Tekton Lore Reference, or Fritzspeaks Grove for a small room Thanks for all of the responses so far! As of now, I am heavily leaning toward the Vandersteens. Regarding the Groves, I realize that they are stand mounted, but I seem to recall that they originally sold for $1600, and now he is advertising them... | |
| Dialogue II noise level I have had a Dialogue 2 for almost two years, and it is also dead quiet. | |
