Sir thanks for recommending Viennas really impress me how it performs and the workmanship. On the way na sya kaya lang waiting pa ako kasi walang piano black dito sa korea gusto ko sana rosewood kaya lang sayang yung $260 na additional kaya stand na lang kinuha.

Sacrifice muna yung SPL1200R for VA's.

Thanks Sir, yun pala would like to ask your recommended speaker wires and interconnect for VA-Rotel combo.

Really like sonus but when I auditioned BS from MA, VA, Dyna, B&W, Totem and PMC, ended up with Vienna coz it suits my Audio needs and budget. Saka in-analyze ko how speakers goes in and out in your lair;D

Thanks!

Thanks!

ive used rotel separates about 2 yrs ago kaya lang di na nagpang abot with the VAs. anyway, im now using transparent and audioquest ICs. the speaker wires are ecosse2.3c. im keeping my VA haydns for good pre. its a very good substitute for the ribbon speakers that i would be using on the main system. the sound of the mg12 and the VA haydns doesnt seem to be far in terms of my personal sonic liking. my MA gold signature10 is still for sale and i hope to have the bigger full ribbons within the month. if youll have upgrade plans, try driving the VAs with unison research Unico integrated amp....for a bigger budget, try it with BnK or BAT or primaluna....by then youll enjoy what they are really capable of...my 2 thumbs up to VA haydns!!!

Actually Sir,all BS that I have been auditioned are driven by Rotel Ra06 which is one of the reason why I choose VA.Sana Sir minsan I could join with your listening session to try B&K-VA combo.

hi bassman,
yes. the bigger maggies needs a bigger room. i have no choice but to transfer everything. they are providing better resolution, more detail, heavier bass, than the younger mg12s.

if the system sounds better with the flowers a bit out of view, leave them as is. the reason y ive put them straight into the listeners sight is because they make the music more alive...hehehe...joke,joke,joke!

wala lang, just to add a taste of nature out of a very techie room, actually.

nice and neat setup sir!  :)
With too many options you could end up not choosing one
