Which Giya for my room ?
A friend of mine with a very similar sized listening room (only the ceiling is different with 3 meters regular) has Just received this week his new speakers: Giya G1 Spirit. First listening impressions are not less than enthusiastic so also the Spirit can fits your room... Just my two cents...- analyzer

Mid range phono stage... what shortlist? (£2k second hand)
About soundstage I can tell you PH-10 that is not among the best contenders. Presentation of instruments Is proportionally well sized; wide but not so deep. I listen every week with It in my system but It lacks in the sense of ambience and space that the best phono can reveal. Overall the...- analyzer

Mid range phono stage... what shortlist? (£2k second hand)
Just my opinion... My choice will go to Goldnote 1000 for overall flexibility of use. Selection of impedance and gain through front display is simply another world in comparison of Whest line which has an annoying selection with dip switches in lower chassis. I had Whest 30rdt and 30SE in the...- analyzer

New Evolution Acoustics "SYSTEM" Speakers paired with Dartzeel
This is very surprising! EA MM's series has a superb extension in first octave; I was wondering if "system" speaker with its small woofers may suffer less SPL max and more distortion in 20-70 Hz region, neverthless the aluminium Cell woofers are also used by Marten speakers in expensive models...- analyzer

Curious about Coda Technologies
I had S20 and now I have n.8; the latter is better in every aspect, not by a great margin but is clearly audible. Better bass, more punchy and more defined. N.8 is faster than S20; speech and singers are easily to understand. I don't know about S5.5. if It works in classA mode the actual...- analyzer

Looked to the specs of the linestage, there's no details about gain in Db. odd and strange Your Emmlabs PRE has very low gain (6 db) as some linestages of the new generation (Pilium for example) so take attention to the match with Power amps, also if pairing with same brand probably would...- analyzer

You're quite right... This is a tendency in almost all the audio gear products... Terms as: "assoluto" - "maestoso" - "vittorioso" are definitely confusing if you must make a choice...
