Meze 99 Classic VS 99 Neo. Which one is right for you?
is this good for watching movies for the desktop? Thanks for the review.
Some are saying that these are identical to the Speaker Box 5 (non-S2 version), bar a few cosmetic differences - this guy makes that argument: czcams.com/video/c_6RdBuBXns/video.html ..any truth to that? - im considering picking them up, but if they're the same as the non-S2 Box 5's then i'll pass as the those are less than half the price of these.
It's only flaw? Lack of QOBUZ support.
Nice speakers but the price in Australia just isn't worth it$900 :(
Thank you for the personal review. There's much to be said comparing these 770's to Lintons with regard to performance to price point. I've always drooled over these 770's, but you're not the first person I've seen reviewing these against the more economical Lintons.
Hey where did the first speaker test video go? I can’t find it - it had the Bronze 100 in it didn’t it?
He had nothing plugged in? LOL so either the 109 Pro's are unknowingly Bluetooth capable, or he was just wow'd by the fit, which for that kind of facial expression, seemed a little overkill lol
First time putting them on, they are just that comfy!
No - booooo balanced - unnecessary and clogs the design for NO reason.
What about 10 small speakers in small room?
what about the 8 rubber plastic in the kit what the use of them?
They are feet to keep the speakers from being scratched on the stands.
Amp looks to be good. One thing I this review is mentionening blue alps as something, while it is apkicated in amplifiers such as rega brio (850 EUR). Many amplifiers at this price point already have mauch more advanced volume attenuation (accuphase, luxman, soulnote, chineese preamps come with stepping(for 1K), schiit etc.). It seems like marketing for novices in hifi.
Nice review what do you think about klipsch fives, sevens and nines
Haven't heard them so I don't really have an opinion. Sorry.
I HAD LEAK STEREO 130 WITH THE LINTONS NOT A GOOD COMBO BOUGHT THE REGA ELECE R WHAT A DIFFERENCE
Glad you're enjoying your different set up. :)
your are fine to listen too , and not only becouse i am a fan of Meze audio ?
You flatter me!
i compared the DAC in the Hegal. to the DAC in the Rega Elex 4 and ended up with the Rega.
I haven't had a chance to compare the two, thanks for sharing your findings!
Very beautiful, competent powerhouse.
Indeed it is!
Just got the tribute CD player Crazy good player
Fantastic value for money!
Can I use the 2 speaker outs for bi amping?
Hello. I really liked your review, but I was hoping of more comparisons with Lintons, since I am planning to get them. Which one do you prefer and why, and do you think Mission 770 is worth the price difference?
Despite both sharing a vintage aesthetic sonically these speakers couldn't be more different. It will entirely depend on your personal tastes.
Great demo ❤
Thank you!
Finally i found the best place for my query. Can you please help me with my query. Im using denon 4700h amplifier. My room size is 20*13*9.can you suggest best speaker brand for this room 1) kef q650..q350..q150 2) klipsch 620f.. R52c.. R51m 3)monitor audio bronze series 5) qaccoustic 3090..3030..3020 6) elac debut series
These are all incredibly different sounding speakers, the sound signature of each speaker is going to play a bigger role than there performance in terms of room size.
Why must I use "Power amp in" inputs on the stereo amplifier? What if I simply don't have it and choose to stream signal from PRE OUT on receiver to AUX IN or something like that in stereo amp?
Is it much upgrade compared to older rotel ra 1570?
Flexibility of use is a good feature. Sounds like a mid tier Swiss Army knife
Is the Moonriver amplifier a good match with PMC speakers?
Great video!! How do you think the 9000A will pair with the LS 3/5a? Thanks
And beware you can't run two sets of 4ohm speakers simultaneously as the impedance is too low and will shut down the amplifier.
MQA went into receivership so now another useless function.
What a disappointment. I just bought the Essential III base model with integrated RCA cabel. Mr. Lichtenegger seems to have introduced cost-cutting measures: no more premium "Connect it E" RCA cable, the USP of that model, but a mere 50 cent wire. And I was under the impression that Pro-Ject deliveres value for the money ... what a disappointment.
This guy's shirt will make him invisible to AI
I took a similar approach, in a slightly different way. I wanted to power my Bowers & Wilkins 804s, but I didn't want to use the weedy amplification of my Denon AVC 8500 HA. My solution was to take the preamp out from the Denon and plug them directly into two monoblocks. in my case: Audiolab 8300MBs. At the press of a button on the back of the amplifier I can switch the input over to XLR connectors which are supplied from a Cambridge Audio Azur 851N Network Player (being used as a pre-amplifier) with all audio two channel Hi-Fi components connected to it. My Rel sub is connected at speaker level for Hi-Fi and sub out RCA for cinema. 250 watts per channel makes the speakers sing! 👍😎
Do they work fine only 30cm from the wall?
Just bought the A11 tribute on sale at Crutchfield for $650 and I must say this review has me very excited to hear what this thing can do in my home with my speakers. If this thing is a steal at $800 then $650 was a no brainer!
Beautiful set up
this was not a review, far away from it.
Just got the 7000A I haven’t heard the other 2 models to compare but I totally agree with your descriptions. I’ve a pair of Q acoustic 3050i speakers and the combination is amazing, the sound stage, the depth and the separation of instruments is very good. The DAC is much better than the one in my Bluesound node streamer . The surprise was the phono preamp which is very good quality, I paired it with my Pro-ject spirit with Ortofon blue, very nice. Very very happy with this amp.
With this set up, do I connect the turn table directly into the HiFi amplifier (or still to the AV receiver)?
You still want to run your turntable directly through your hifi amp :)
Very moody and cosy, I love it! Great points too, which I've never thought about!
It's nice to try and make things a little differently sometimes, keep things fresh.
Love how wanky this was, i thought it was an ad for a Melbourne coffee shop for a while. 😉
Ha ha. Too much? or just enough?
Can you tell me which one is better, mahogany and walnut?
Depends on your personal tastes and the aesthetic of your room.
@@living_entertainment Thank you for your answer.
Hi again it be interesting to hear a11 with ELAC ubr62, it’s also interesting that B&w have upgraded the 606s2 to the s3 model . Regards mark
I got the 7000a to go in my parents house while I have the 8300a. The speakers are almost the same… wharfedale diamond 225 with the 7000a and diamond 230 with the 8300a. I haven’t tried an external dac yet with the 7000a, but just comparing the bluesound node and my 8300a, the tuning is very different. The 8300a is way way more neutral (even though both are mid focused), and as a result the 8300a does come across as a lot smoother to listen to… but I need to try the bluesound node on the 7000a before I can confirm this properly. Both are good depending on what you like to listen to… the 7000a will add more grit to male vocalists, so if you like Phil Collins go with the 7000a, but if you like Pavarotti , go with the 8300a. Both have good instrument separation…
Great review of my current go-to speaker. New subscriber 😊
Wonderful to hear, we have a follow up video on the new LSX LT on the way.
..also ... the Debut Carbon DC Plater , is Poing-Poing
Excellent review! I am guessing the Rotel house sound changed due to the influence of Ken Ishiwata working at Rotel. Ken was one of the greatest amplifier designers of all time (who designed the magnificent Marantz PM-11S2 I still own).
i wanted to upgrade ffom my q acoustic 3030i would either of these be a good upgrade path?
I run the Omnia on a pair of Elac 247.3 and the Elac Sub 2030, the ensemble sounds very linear in all bandwidths; I'm thrilled with the sound experience.
Lintons have uncanny ability to make things sound better and with dignity. I tested Lintons with Rotel A14, which is nearly 2x as powerful as A11 Tribute, and A14 lacked juice in some tracks and types of music, and the stage could still be improved upon. I wouldn't drive Lintons with anything less than 2 x 120W or 2 x 150W.
Thanks for this
My pleasure!
you can connect a subwoofer to this amplifier
Yes you can :)
@@living_entertainment how to which connectors
