| Nordost Purple Flare for GoldenEar triton One.R GE easy that these are "compatible with 8ohms" whatever that means. Sterophile say that there are serious dips and a 4 ohm capable amp is required. Ugh well, I will let you all know how the Canare's work. | |
| Nordost Purple Flare for GoldenEar triton One.R Never mind, they are effectively 11awg. | |
| Nordost Purple Flare for GoldenEar triton One.R My only hesitation on the Canare is they are 14 gauge and the speakers are 4ohm. Should I be concerned about that? | |

| Nordost Purple Flare for GoldenEar triton One.R Thanks all. I have been hearing amazingly good things about the Canare. At that price, not much risk in trying them out. | |
| Nordost Purple Flare for GoldenEar triton One.R Thanks. I am sure the Freys are great, but my budget is in the Flare range. | |
| Q Acoustics Concept 50 They are on my radar screen as well. I would love to hear from someone who has heard them. | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) 26db (Modwright KWA 150 SE). | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) I owned an SLP-05 as well. It sounded great in many ways, but I ended up selling it because (you guessed it) it had too much gain (and hence noise). I tried various attenuators, including Rothwell's, and the input controls on the pre itself, and ... | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? I also own an Ayre AX-5/20. It replaced more expensive separates (Modwright KWA 150 SE and Cary Slp-05 pre) and sounds vastly better imho and takes up a lot less space. Good high end companies seem to be investing a lot of R&D into integrated... | |
| Looking for my Final Pair!! Another vote for Spatial. My Luminas fit your needs 100% and those X3s are similar especially with the powered sub. | |
| looking for a Integrated amp $6,000 range There are two Ayre Ax--5/Twenty's for sale on hifi shark/ebay for $6k and $6500. Lists for $15k. Not sure why they are going for so little, but great deals on a fantastic integrated. Read the reviews, one of the best. | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" Would these work in a large room? Say, 18 x 30, but with the listening area 18-20 feet from front wall. | |
| Integrated amp suggestions. Another vote for the Ayre AX-5/20. I have owned one for two years now and totally love it. It is dead quiet and very natural sounding.I have also her the Vinnie Rossi and it is also fantastic. I would try to audition both.I | |
| ~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought I am a big Spatial fan. Given that they are on your list, I would definitely try to demo a pair of X3s. I own Luminas and have heard the X2. The X2 is something of a hybrid of the two. AMT driver like the X2 and powered subs like the Lumina (altho... |
