Sorry.I'm not interested in B&W or Avalon speakers,but in the Dingy.
Is it truth you connected your high performance equipment to this venerable boxes? Are them better than contemporanean Lowther or AER, for instance?
Thank You.

I was wondering how you think the Levinson 30.6/31.5 compare with today's digital. I own the pair too.
Thanks,

System edited: system upgraded. I change NAGRA PL-P and VPA with Mark Levinson 33h . Now I'm waiting for a M.L. 32 REF.

Hi, I'm agree with you about bass slam of Wilson for example W/P 7 ; in the meantime Wilson speakers will never give to me the medium and the hi frequencies of the Avalon! however in my room the bass of my Eidolon is ok. I hope to try the lamm 1.2 or 2.2 very soon.

Romano - Eidolons will never give you the bass slam of say Wilson speakers. I have even tried the Krell 700cx, the unquestioned bass champ, but could never get the bass oooomph some other speakers are capable of. Now I use Lamm 1.2 which makes a very synergistic combination with Eidolons (and Opus Ceramique too).

Hi kotaro,
I change my speakers . Now I use a pair of Eidolon Diamond and the cardas golden ref. signal and speakers cabes. The bass are better than with the ceramique but the power is low for these speakers . I'm search for a new pair of mono amps like Lamm 1.2 / 2.2 or Tenor 300 hp .

romano

Kotaro - which speakers and which cables do you use?

Hi, I have also NAGRA PL-P and VPA combi. But I am not satisfied the bass sound. How about you?

kotaro

What do you think of you Aaron amp?
I haven't heard much about them

Hi. you need a very revealing speaker to fully benefit from the amazing potential of the Nagar pre-power combo. I´d carefully listen to either Ayon Audio or Lumen White or ACapella Audio Arts.

Romano, if you like a "live" sound check out Avantgarde Duohorns. Perfect with your Nagra's. Amazing speakers!

I like B&W sound very much. However I like also the Avalon . I think that the deep scene of the Avalon's speakers is the characteristic that I love more in these speakers.

romano

Do you enjoy the B&W sound? Do you think you'll stay in their line?

hallo Schoon,
thanks for compliment. The B&W nautilus 800 is a really good speaker and I prefer use it with the Mark Levinson 331 instead of the Nagra VPA . I whish only more power . If I will find a good deal I will purchase a new power amp like a ML 333 or 434.
best regards

hallo Arthursmuck,
the 800's is a wonderfull speaker but is too big in my room. So I will try to move the HT set in another big room (if I can do it) and i leave the stereo system there. In the future I will purchase a pair of new speaker for the stereo sys.

romano

You have a really great system. How does the mark levinson 331 amp pair with your b&w N800s?

schoon

What about the 800's?
