    Wyred 4 Sound STI-500

    Got the sti-500 in last night. I've only had a few hours to listen but it seems that all the reviews were true. It has incredible detail and articulation and the sound stage increased dramatically. That's saying alot too as the Musical Fidelity has an amazing sound and the Krell has extreme...

    Mcintosh 7270 and Theos Mac owners need your thoughts!

    Anyone own or have had experience with Mcintosh 7270 amp and/or a c35n preamp? I have a gentleman who has both for sale and I may be able to purchase both around 1800. He also has the Krell kav250a I am considering at a much lower price of 900 and for 50 more I can get a B&K Ref 20 pre. I know...

    preamp suggestions to match Krell KAV 250a

    Almost nailed down a KAV 250a amp, but need recommendations for a good budget-minded premap to go with it. Seller has a B&K Ref 20 he will add in for $100 so I may go that route temporarily. As some of you know, due to lack of dealers around me as well as owners, actually listening to a...

    Can someone check Agon blue book for me?

    I don't have a subscription, just want to check the current going rate on a Musical Fidelity A 5.5. Thanks in advance!

    Theos are in!

    Seeing as they are new, I can't really make any calls on sound but they seem to equal the Vistas I had last with more highs (which I had hoped for). I don't notice as wide a soundstage but I'm pretty confident they will open up once they get broken in. I did post my MF A300 up on a few sites...

    Anyone in Miami? Need some speakers checked out

    I'm in W KY and considering a set of Odysseys on Ebay, which are in Miami, rougly 20 hrs from me. Anyone from there that might be able to drop by and give them the once over? Please email me at [email protected] if you can help! Thanks in advance!

    Coming back to ML...need some recommendations

    Funny but I get in a bind financially and sell my ML's only to come back as soon as the smoke clears. I guess they mean more than musical bliss to me, they are a true good investment for me as well. I've owned Vistas, SL3's, and Aeon i's, loved them all and now sold my Paradigm Studio...

    System up n running new Vistas!

    Taking a long drive to Chattanooga was worth the time, found a demo set (40 hrs on them according to the dealer) for a sweet price and full warranty. Hooked them up Friday night and my kids and I enjoyed them all weekend. I still am waiting on my Signal Cables to be built, right now using some...

    Back in Martin Logans finally!

    After much debate and Agon searching (a few Ebay auctions here and there), I found my speakers and amp. I went with a set of Vistas in dark cherry, previous owner claims they only have 40 hours on them and a Plinius 8200 mkII integrated. The amp is being shipped and the speakers I have to...

    ok I found an option to the Plinius...Sunfire TG3?

    Any thoughts? I will be using 2 channel mostly, although my blu ray is HDMI, which would make the Sunfire fairly easy to hook up. Once again, no dealers within hours so I cannot demo the unit. Not sure which one has the advantage in sound quality but online notes seem to point to the...

    Plinius 8200 mkii, anyone have experience with one?

    Just picked up a Plinius integrated, 8200 mkii off Agon, and now turning to the ML speaker search. Wondering if anyone has any real time experience with this amp, and if they have matched it up with Martin Logans. I'm considering another pair of Aeon i's or maybe some Ascents or newer Sources...

    maybe back into ML's...need some of yall's advice

    Havent had any of the ML sound in over a year so here's my question since I dont know the new line. Are the Sources basically the Clarity? I'm looking at a few sets of them used and the prices seem comparable. I had Aeon i's and they never sounded quite as open as the SL3's I owned years ago...

    X-DAC v3 or the X-10 v3 ?

    Ok I admit I am still new to this tweakie deekie thingie, so in my system, which is the way to go in this case? Do I install the XDAC between my 400xi and Denon 2910 dvd/cd or buy the X-10 and install it between the two? This might be a true noob question but before I spend hard earned...

    got my Krell back yesterday

    As some of you know, I sent my 400xi back due to possible shipping damage caused by Fedex. Krell checked it out and said nothing was wrong, and the volume levels seemed adequate. They fixed the bent terminal at least, so my amp is factory fresh again. I hooked it up and it still has to be...

    ok guys need input for a possible upgrade to ReQuests

    I think I found a helluva deal on Agon on some ReQuests from a guy fairly close to me. $1800 in mint shape. My question for you all, especially you ReQuest owners (those who owned Aeon i's too get big brownie points), is this worth getting into and/or a good deal? Will there be much...

    Transparent MusicWave Super biwires, is this a good deal?

    12 foot and bi wired, no kinks or tears in the cable covers, some scratches on the spades and the boxes (bananas in great shape on the speaker end), but other than cosmetics, claimed to be perfect working order. These are the older square boxes, and I am not too familiar with Transparent's...

    MIT MH 750 Shotgun speaker cables

    anyone had any experience with this particular model? Thinking of buying a used set of the earlier off-white biwires for my Aeon i's.

    question for ML/Krell owners

    OK guys...I finally got my Krell 400xi in and to my dismay the volume level seems much reduced compared to the Musical Fidelity A300 I had previously. I wrote to Krell asking if the amp might need to be sent in and checked out, and here is their response: "There can be a substantial difference...

    getting me a baby Krell!

    I played with the Musical Fidelity A300 for a month now and I just want what my heart was craving. I sold the MF in less than two hours (thanks Agon) and bought a Krell 400xi. Anyone have this amp or had experience with it? My goal originally was a 300i, but one helluva deal dropped in my lap...
