- I've totally lost the plot....
That King and Queen stuff is complicated - too much for my digital processor.
When the Queen dies, does the Prince become a King, and if so which prince and if he's married is she the Queen.
The Nad 3150 sure impressed me, I have to return it tonight. Talk about a sleeper amp, I'm talking in terms of sound quality, not power. Could also be a case of the phono stage quality as well.
sad news D2.
i've known about NADs for a few years now, (even have one of their CD decks somewhere) but getting an amp is just something i've always kept overlooking due to other pursuits, but i'll have something soon.
can't be the only kid on the block not to have one can i?
meanwhile...... JBL 4301BE's plugged into my baby valve amp, and running a JBL B380 sub powered with a Crown D150 bridged, and all's just brilliant!
Lee, the best sound i get here in my room at the quiet listening levels i prefer are my trusty old JBL Decade 36 (10" 3-way), which sound even better than my JBL 4313B, (also 10" 3-way) but still not as good as my JBL 4301 (8" 2-way), but i can't get to them at the moment coz they're all the way on top of the stack, but i'll get 'em wired up shortly.
there's always the JBL 15" boxes and various JBL horns, but you have to run 'em so much harder to perform so not really suitable.
overall, there's just more presence in the sound, and the field seems wider and deeper, and still lots of boom/tizz at low volumes, and still have that perception of space, and 'black', as long as my amps aren't humming or buzzing, which they're not at the moment, but time will tell as it gets into the quiet of the night hours. (especially after midnight.)
the maggies need more room i s'pose, and i'm just running out of space.
put it this way..... from where i'm sitting, it's almost 6 metres to the wall, and yet only 2.5 metres to the front of my speakers.
that's 3.5 metres deep of speakers. there just isn't enough space left without moving my sitting position back another 2-3 metres, and by then i'd be in the kitchen!
so i'll just go with it for a while..... 'till i find something new.
i must admit, all this talk about the NADs has 'pricked' my ears up, so i'm looking for one of them now, so things WILL change, soon.....![]()
Damn G - all this talk about 3-way, 2-way, 10", 12", 8", harder to perform, nads, pricks - I just don't know.![]()

I knew it was only a matter of time before you chimed inThe key words were right there!
A pair of Nads bridged would be very interesting![]()
You do it so well G - I'm impressed!![]()
... and yet i feel like such a failure, as the biggest I have is only 15". not even an 18" to be seen let alone anything BIGGER.
