WATT-Puppy-Joule TherapySamhar, that really was my question... if the Joules can drive the 86.5 db 6 ohm load of the Homage's? I guess I will have to see if I can get a loaner pair from someone and see. If the Joule's are... posted about 17 years ago | View comment | |
WATT-Puppy-Joule TherapySamhar, Your system looks great! I love the Joule amps ( seriously considering them for my system) and I'm sure with the Sophia's the sound must be fantastic.What made you decide on the Joule's? posted about 17 years ago | View comment | |

Closer to the real thingFLG2001, I noticed that you use the Wadia 170i and an ipod as your digital front end. I am thinking of acquiring the Wadia 170i as well; however, I have been told by several other audio buddies tha... posted about 17 years ago | View comment | |
Closer to the real thingThat is very interesting Flg2001. I agree that the G's are not able to push big air and in a medium to large room probably should have a sub. When you say their footprint is to laugh at what do you... posted about 17 years ago | View comment | |
Closer to the real thingFlg2001, How would you compare your G's to the Avantgarde's that you sold? I also own the G's and they replaced some well thought after Hales in my system.I have never looked back, the Hales we... posted about 17 years ago | View comment | |

Sonus Faber Guarneri systemLloydelee21, Your comparison of the Gryphon to the Wavac should be interesting. I'm not sure if the Wavac's will have enough drive capability for the Strads though. When I heard the Gryphon's in th... posted over 17 years ago | View comment | |

Sonus Faber Guarneri systemJskg, I agree with you that tubes are generally more transparent. That's why I am still contemplating adding a tube amp. Also, the G's seem to love tubes. Interesting that you do not find your LP14... posted about 18 years ago | View comment | |

Sonus Faber Guarneri systemJskg, I have heard the CJ LP140M's and they do sound great with the G's. Have not heard the CT5, is this the normal partner for the LP140M's from CJ? I heard the LP140M's with the ART preamp ( firs... posted over 18 years ago | View comment | |
