Marantz 6011 Hi I'm trying to use a Cyrus Power X to drive my Dynaudio Focus 110's as a 2nd set of fronts. I have the Marantz set in 7.1 + Front B mode. But the pre outs don't seem to be active in Height 2, where the 110's are set to go out from. Im connected to the Cyrus not the Marantz. So...

Hey guys So i'm looking for a new AV amp that has pre outs to connect my Electrocompaniet ECI5 amp to drive the left and right channels. My current AV amp is a budget Yamaha 677, driving Monitor Audio BX6's etc. I can't for the life of me seem to find dealer websites that show amps that has...

Can you post a picture? It doesn't sound a lounge friendly solution, and 2m thick traps are definitely out. I used this to calculate the main modes, and surprise there are a bunch of them at 43Hz, 47Hz, 49Hz and 50Hz. I've tried experimenting already with speaker position fore and aft, there's...

I'll get it fixed, thats for sure. It's been a brilliant purchase, and i can't stress enough how well suited it is for me. I've heard Naims etc, and they're too much for me. There was a lower end Rega in the chain today (not a fair comparison I know) for the RP6 demo which wasn't bad, but I've...

I quite like the idea of a cloud for my study. Honestly, if you can it's totally worth it, you can make it fit in ith your decor. People will happily spend £100's on a new DAC, a new cartridge etc etc...but this is a low cost thing that truely makes a difference. They're easy enough to build...

Hey Electro, nice to speak to you again. Sorry, I know their not boutique in the sense you mean. I just meant they're not as common as Naim etc. I used a Rega phono stage for the RP6 and I think I went into the tape input. I've since dissassembled it so I could be wrong. Which is the correct...

Absolutely pit in the stomach moment. The smell is the worst, it's just lingerng around to make sure I know it's dead. Real shame, as my home cinema amp isn't a patch on the ECI5 when it comes to driving the floorstanders. I can't drive my Dynaudio's either which is a *****, I wanted to test...

No, but I used a Rega one to run the RP6 through, which is unning without a hitch through my home cinema set up.

Yep, I absolutely agree it ain't gonna happen in most homes. But I figure it's worth mentioning as I personally think it's a better option, if you can do it. I personally have bass traps, a cloud as well as absorbers around my main spce. But, Im not usual, my main space is...

I'm not sure if it's been said already but, if your able to, some room treatment is the best way to go. I know it's not something easy to consider for a living space, my main listening space is my office/studio but it's quite easy to have acoustic treatment that looks part of the furniture and...

So I bought home a Rega RP6 to demo. Turned up the amp then pop and some smelly smoke. Gutted. Spoke to the epair agent on thei site for the UK, thinks its the output stage and about £250 to fix. Luckily I still have my home cinema set up to keep playing with the Rega. But my Dynadio set up...

Yeah I understand not being able to have everything in. They'll be selling a lot more RP1's than £1000 TT's. I took a punt on my Electrocompaniet amp through advise on this board, someone found me a half price ex display model and got it fo £1500 and I couldn't have been happier with it, so...

Thanks for your input, interesting read. I think it's pretty easy to get swept up on the Rega train. I do have an RP1 at the moment, which has been a good think to use whilst I concenrated on building home cinema up. But now I find myself always going for the vinyl for extended, and more...

Morning all! So tomorrow I'm demoing the RP6, my local store doesn't have the Clear Audio in, which is annouying. Just wondering if anyone has tried both and which they went for? I'll also be trying the Rega Phono, my amp doesn't have a phono stage. Thanks
