To see and feel the musicWell done Arthur! Even if it had come by well funded parents, I get tired of hearing from jealous people of others good fortunes! BTW, I sent you an email via AG about a week ago, did you g... posted about 11 years ago | View comment | |

To see and feel the musicHey Arthur, no French here, but I recently took my Luxman out of the Furman for a time and what a pleasure when I put it back. Fuller, warmer, more dynamic and just plain more enjoyable. posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!I find that I never fully recognize the impact something made until I use it a while and then go back to what I had before. It's a clearer perspective, and gives expectations tim... posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
To see and feel the musicThat is great Arthur, sounds like you nailed down a great system after a lot of great experimentation. posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!I am removed from the hobby quite a bit these days Arthur and I have had the Furman for 4 years, so I couldn't remember what I thought after I got it, but I thought I posted something so I checked ... posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
To see and feel the musicSounds to me that the sensitivity of your speakers makes them a good candidate to judge certain aspects of an amp. posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
To see and feel the musicHey Arthur, I owned a CA2200 back in 2004, with the matching pre and CDP. Beautiful (looking) matching setup, but I soon after picked up 802D's and sold the setup as it wouldn't sing in my room. posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
To see and feel the musicHi Arthur. I didn't realize McIntosh had made a change to their amps. The change sounds very encouraging. posted almost 12 years ago | View comment | |
To see and feel the musicGood stuff Arthur. Congrat's on your journey and putting together a nice system/room. Count me in as one that would hunt you down if ever traveling through W. VA. posted almost 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!I concur Arthur, vocals are simply amazing; I am coming from Harbeth which are known for their vocals, and rightly so, yet these excel. Jed used a top RAAL driver, where I have heard some are restr... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!I hadn't heard this model Drubin but I had heard the Minuet M72. A friend of mine is friends with Jed of Clearwave, and a dealer. My friend had the Minuet M72's and brought them over, where I was q... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!Hi Lapierre,In regards to the Harbeth's, I (believe I) could easily live with them again, these were one of my all time favorite speakers and I was fine without a sub. They would be my firs... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |

Brian's system!Hi Fripp--I really don't know the answers to all your questions, but will provide this: I am in a rural area. We do not have brown outs. I have a dedicated wire running from my panel to my system, ... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!M40.1's are out of my reach these days; I have heard them before a few years back and really liked them.You may be right Mapman, as it seems to be doing just that. posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!You may be right Mapman. As I say, I definitely wish for a fuller sound for this large room, but at the same time, I sure am enjoying music! I really liked my W/P's and while the "litt... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!Branislav, the Sason's were fuller (had more weight), where these are leaner. The Sason's did better than other speakers I have had with depth, but the Harbeth's are without question the best I hav... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!I need very little of the Luxman to run the Harbeth's, usually around 9 o'clock on the dial. My experience with the Harbeth's hasn't fully mirrored other reports, as mentioned; I was expect... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!Mapman, the room is indeed quite lively. It has been most notable to me while talking on the phone and I go down the hallway into the bedroom and the sound difference in my voice is very noticeable... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!Hi Lapierre, the midrange is wonderful, as reported with these. The resolution, imaging and depth is some of the best I have experienced. posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
Brian's system!Hey Arthur, awhile indeed. I have wanted to try the Harbeth's for a long time but was always concerned about them being too small for my room and I indeed wish for a fuller sound. That said, even t... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |
