| Infinity Irs Beta The VT 100's would be enough power on the top and you can get good levels of volume,unless you are in a very large room and like to break plaster.....I had Infinity RS-1 A's and B's before I had the Betas.I drove my Betas with Audio research 100 w... | |
| Infinity Irs Beta I used to own them...Awesome speakers! And I mean great!! The bad news is they might sound fine now,but will definitely sound better with a good(relatively powerful) tube amp on the panels....I ran top quality Audio research units on mine.You defi... | |
| NY Audio Show September 26th to September 28th I knew EBM for many years(decades actually)and in reality he is a warm and very nice fellow.Humor can be misinterpreted and that is what has happened here,imo. | |
| MAGICO Q1 vs dc10 Berlin SM I can attest to the fact that EBM has an "amazing" system,which is equaled by his music collection,his hobby knowledge/experience/passion and ability to eek out the best from it all. He's had many speakers over the years(big Maggies,Avalon,Kharma ... | |
| Magico V2 vs. Q1 The Mini II is a CLASSIC speaker! It demonstrated(to me) that it could easily stand up to much bigger designs and actually embarrassed many of them."This" with a smaller foot print and almost perfect design.There is a good reason these are sealed ... | |
| Used Magico V3 or Rockport Mira 2 Charles, I understand and you make some very good points.The post about expression,in particular. best regards | |
| Used Magico V3 or Rockport Mira 2 It doesn't. | |
| Used Magico V3 or Rockport Mira 2 Charles,yes you are correct.No record needed to be set straight here.I admit this is only my(and a few other folks')opinion.No harm meant at all,as there are many wonderful designs. Still,in my 40 years in the hobby no speaker had impressed me as ... | |
| Used Magico V3 or Rockport Mira 2 No disrespect to anyone in particular.......but....I find it absolutely laughable that the Magico Mini II can be weak in virtually "any" area,if set up in a good room,with proper matching equipment!.....and this ain't so easy,which is one reason w... | |
| Magico Room at RAMF How good did it sound The MINI's are "Classics"!! I've heard EBM's set-up a while back,and it was about as good as it gets,imo....and I have heard alot of sota equipment over the years.Some NYC based reviewer's had invited me to their homes at times,and few could touch... | |
| 5 legendary speakers? From memory(and owned a few)..... Infinity Servo Static,Infinity RS-1B,"definitely" Quad ESL 57(or even 63),Avalon Ascent Mk- II,and without a doubt the Magico Mini II! The Magico Mini(to me)was/is the most impressive of the lot,as it "slaughtered... | |
| driving Verity Audio Parsifal Ovations? I love this thread!....Personally,I need to congratulate "all" of you Verity owners.These are superb speakers,at all levels. I wonder if any of you folks feel the "Parsifal Ovation" would work well with the De Havilland 50A amps?They are only 40 w... | |
| Magico - a new Mini? No arguments from me-:) | |
| Magico - a new Mini? Btw,I mispoke....The Pre was an Audio Research "modded" SP-15...not an SP-10(though I used to own both)! Sorry! | |
| Magico - a new Mini? At the time,the amp was a Rowland 8t,and a "highly" modded Audio Research SP-10(and I mean "modded to the max").The digital system was a Levinson 390s,with a modded SOTA Cosmos/Graham Phantom/Transfiguration Orpheus cartridge.All going through SOT... |
