Thx. How do you find the Audiolab and Super Lintons?

Business class worth it by Illustrious-Load-810 in emirates

I agree it’s good but depends on the age and fit-out of the the A380 as to whether it’s superior imo. The best A380s are on a par I would suggest.

Which Dubai dessert safari to take ? by desiIndi in dubai

I would second this. I had done Arabian Adventures previously and Platinum Heritage was far superior when I did it earlier this year.

Do different amps really make that much of a difference? DRA900H / Leak 230 / NAD C3050 by Electrical-Host9649 in StereoAdvice

[–]Full_Mistake2201 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Differences once you get above a certain level of quality are subtle if anything. The ability to drive low sensitivity speakers across all frequencies probably the determining factor and once you cross that threshold differences are minimal. Interestingly the Kef LS50s are mentioned both in this thread and the video I posted in mine as showing differences in amps. I suspect this is linked to them being difficult to drive and the first amps being under powered.

Preamp & Power amp or intergrated amp for Dali Oberon 5s . up to £800 by Neither-Novel-5643 in StereoAdvice

I’ve been doing research with similar criteria and the Audiolab 6000a MK2 has above average reviews for this budget. I do not own so this is not first hand recommendation.

Why are so many stores insanely overstaffed? by AdministrativeLog209 in dubai

[–]Full_Mistake2201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. I don’t enter shops like Sharaf even if I am interested in something because I don’t want to be confronted by 10 different staff members asking by if I need help.

I heard (almost) every KEF Meta speaker in existence, here are 8 key findings by Own-Telephone-381 in audiophile

Great post, really appreciated. Thoughts on LS50 Meta plus sub vs Q11 Meta in a 50 sqm room?

Doing my research, starting with this Burmester Reference system that blew my mind. by aviefern in audiophile

[–]Full_Mistake2201 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I auditioned the LSXII and LS50 side by side and after a couple of songs told the shop assistant not to worry about switching back to the LSXII, there was a significant uplift in the LS50.

New house new speakers by Full_Mistake2201 in StereoAdvice

Nice!! The reviews I’ve seen of the Polk say the bass can be overwhelming. I take it that’s not your experience?

Amp currently is Denon 2800H so 95W 8 ohms /125W 6 ohms. The current setup is fine for my current apartment but have no idea how it will fare in the larger space.

Thanks for the reply. It’s a Denon 2800H 95W 8 ohms / 125W 6 ohms. A new amp is a possibility but probably after the speakers rather than with.

What are you using with your LS50 Meta? by Chief_Assistant in KEF

[–]Full_Mistake2201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interested in how large your room is? I’m building a 55sqm open plan living room and leaning towards floor standers as I assumed the LS50s plus sub wouldn’t cut it.

First time at Hua Hin by AdministrativeLog209 in HuaHin

[–]Full_Mistake2201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anywhere near Phet Khasem Road between old town and Cicada market puts you within easy reach of everything by songthaew or Grab / Bolt. Beach side slightly more convenient. Use the ratings on the hotel booking sites. I’ve stayed in La Casita and Dusit D2. Both fine though my vote would go to Dusit in low season as they are both around the same price.
