In Reply to: Need Good Definition with Low Db levels!! posted by KarlGranat on May 8, 2006 at 02:43:28:
First- A very sincere thank you to all who have taken the time to so thoughtfully advise me on alternatives. I really appreciate it.I have a quiet place to listen, and I guess dynamic range at low levels and detail is my big problem.
I am probably going to go with a tube SET amp- and I am going to try to listen to some very efficient full range speakers.
I thought of Quad ESL's, but thought they were very inefficient- I now am wondernig if I bridged two, stereo 2 watt SET amps, I could drive even inefficient speakers to levels that would be fine for me. The Quad 57's are still legendary, and I seem to see tham for sale all the time- many with some good upgrades.
I had a chance to get some very pristine Quad 63's with the custom powered subwoofers for $3,500, and passed it up- maybe that was a mistake. I could have driven to pick them in in only two days round trip too-
I will browse the Turntable and Cartridge series and look into moving up to a good moving coil too- right now I have a Goldring 1042 on a Music Hall TT that I like, but not as much as a Nachamichi MM cartrige I had back in the 1980's.
Again, Thank you all!!
