Full Range under $5k-ish
I recently bought the new KEF R-11 and am breaking them in now. I am loving them and they now seem to be opening up a bit at about 100 hours. Using a Parasound Hint-6 and it seems to be a fantastic synergistic match so far! 
Quad Z4 anyone?
Audiotroy,Thanks for the reviews. Can’t really tell on paper if they would be a good matchfor the MastersounD.Gonna keep looking, or go back to the Stellar M700’s and change direction yet again! Am thinking Tekton DI or Klipsch Rf7III’s or maybe L... 
Quad Z4 anyone?
Twoleftears,Thanks, I saw that one LOL! I quess the only real way to find out is be the Ginny pig! 😜 
Elac Adante AS 61 vs AF 61
Contuzzi,Yea, will have to search for a higher efficiency speaker. Believe it or not, the MS sounds fantastic with my Def Tech St-L’s. May not even need another speaker.they are 93 dB, and plenty of volume, so a speaker in that range should be fin... 
Elac Adante AS 61 vs AF 61
Audio Doctor NJ,I am thinking about either the Adantes, and have been eyeballing the beautiful Quad Z 4’s for some time. So, IYO is the Quad a better overall speaker than the Elac? I know they are very different and it’s all subjective, but what i...

Thanks cb5300,I bought the Revel Salon 2’s already, and trying them with different amps. I agree with you on Legacy having owned the Focus SE previously, and just sold an original pair of Focus last week. Thought about buying a current version (My...

Tdimler,Thanks! Funny you ask right now as I am thinking about trying something and was going to start a thread on it. As of right now, I am using a pair of PS Audio Stellar M700 monos, and GCD preamp. Sounds great, but wondering if class D is tru...

Revel Ultima Salon 2
Inforthemusic,I just bought new Salon 2’s last night and they are the best speaker I have ever heard or owned. My room is 20x20x12. They have countour switches on back so should prove to be flexible in most rooms.
