    Planar IEM's in 2022

    Have you all heard any of those "chi-fi" planar in ear monitors on amazon? I ask about planar ones as a fan of the electrostatic sound. Seems like few buyers of these amazon IEM's come from big stereo setups -- not that there's anything wrong with that :beatnik: I got myself some Letshuoer...

    Possibly good new tweeter?

    I e-mailed Kenneth Fritz awhile back about tweeter suggestions and he told me that Planar tweeters are the best of the bunch. I have been wondering if I should buy some, and then these came to my attention: Foster E100T10...

    Damn these Magnepan SMGa's !!!!

    Hello, all !! An Ak'er was kind enough to give me a pair of these legends a year or so ago, with the caveat that there was a sizable rip in the mylar, and occasionally, the tweeter on one with the rip would cut out. After not connecting them for the past year, I got around to it. Yep...

    Tube amp with no headphone jack — what to do??

    Hi all, Apologies if this is a stupid question — I've tried to do the research, but am finding it really hard to track down a solution! I recently purchased a Reisong A10 amp — without realizing it had no headphone jack! (What a dunce.) I can still return it, but I am really liking the sound...

    Bose 501 Series V Crossover Point?...Wanting to upgrade from "Twiddlers"

    Greetings all! I know these speakers are nothing special, but I thought that it would be neat to replace the twiddlers with the new GRS 3.5" planar transducers from PE. The way I see it, not only would they provide vastly better clarity, but due to the direct/reflecting design, would eliminate...

    Best subwoofer and crossover options to compliment planar speakers like Magnepan MG-IIc

    I'll soon be the proud new owner my first pair of Maggies, thanks to @hjames, and I'd like to understand two things as I await their arrival: 1. What are the best options for a subwoofer to handle the low end for these particular Magnepans? I've found some chat about Velodyne ULD and DD and...

    Planar 3 versus MMF 5.3

    I'm pretty new at this and am purchasing my first TT. I think I've narrowed it down to the Rega Planar 3 and the Music Hall MMF 5.3. I've heard the Planar 3, but not the MMF 5.3 (can't find a local place that carries it). Do folks have thoughts on the direct comparison of the 2? I'm...

    Rega planar 3 enough of a step up from my pioneer

    I'm currently running a pioneer pl514 which works flawlessly, but I saw a Rega Planar 3 pop up locally. Owner says it works perfectly, comes with no cartridge, but is clean, good cover, looks like the oem arm but the platter looks like glass. I'm not versed in Rega but I think that is an...

    Newbie scored some Maggie's! Advice appreciated!
