...just the part of some of the stuff that I've had (usually pictured just befor the sale)...recently I have discovered the tube amplificatiom (hello Columbus) and just when I thought that I should explore more,I read that the tubes are on life support... with D class coming (in the words of R.Karlsen from Atmasphere himself )Still have to photo the room and the system to put it here (I even do not use the smartphone, so have to rely on good mood of my girfriend to put everything up)... but the source is still Burmester 089 player, speakers are Franco Serblin's Lignea (the Guraneri's were too big and the Avantgarde Acoustic horns did not like much) and the amplification (my first all tube one) is from Unison Research (the only photo that is from web).It is rather simple 30w A class pse that plays lovely and I am very curios to try some more serious tube stuff...and perhaps the Atmasphere D class, after reading some of R.Karlsen posts here...
Last update. New speakers, Franco Serblin Accordo instead of Lignea, Burmester 036 instead of Unison Research amps. The 089 Burmester player goes directly to an amp, until I got the matching Burmester preamp
Alex, I have only heard the Accordo's in a couple of systems. The GH's and the Accordo's are certainly cut from the same cloth. Franco knew what he was doing. I think the GH's are slightly more resolving, but the Accordo's drop a little lower in the bass. I could easily live with either speaker.
Alex, you make a great point about the size of the speaker to the room, one which i totally agree with BTW. Indeed smaller is often better.
Luckily, in my room, which has smaller width and length dimensions than yours, i have a saving grace...and it is the fact that i have a vault ceiling that goes up to over 13'. This increases the volume of the room and allows the GH's to shine. I think if you had a higher ceiling that you would then have plenty of volume in your room for the GH's.
Nice system. One question, you stated that the GH's were too big?? Yet you are now using the FS Accordo's. Can you elaborate a little on why the GH's were too big? I have never heard anyone say that about GH's before.
