Thoughts on my current system No the Cary is a solid state cd player. My preamp is tube. Audio Research LS17se. | |
Thoughts on my current system I think the Parasound a21 and Aragon 8008 is a sideways move. Somethings one does better than the other and vice versa. Here on AG the general feel is the A21 is better. I bought it and have not used it much. It probably has 50 hours on it so ... | |
Thoughts on my current system Thanks topten. So your saying hardwood over carpet then? | |
Thoughts on my current system Thank you both for your reply. My system sounds pretty good, although sometimes I feel it might be a bit soft. I have thought about upgrading to the new Sonus Faber Venere S or perhaps something from Revel. I just had the Aragon checked and its... | |
Audio Research LS 17 SE Power Cord Thank you for all that replied. I will check these out. I have heard very goods about the JPS Pac Black as well. The gauge is a bigger than 8 so that's good. | |
Aragon 8008bb/Mk. 2 Sounds good. The LS 17SE is indeed a great piece. Some would say the LS 27 is a bit better but mot that much for the extra money. I agree balanced is the way to would go for ARC. I noticed Music Direct is offering AQ Colorado interconnects for ... | |
Aragon 8008bb/Mk. 2 I'm thinking about a LS 17SE pre amp with the A21. I hear that the Kimber power cords are very good for the money Pretty neutral. In order to really get top performance from Shunyata you have to buy the Alpha series and up. I have not heard po... | |
Aragon 8008bb/Mk. 2 Thank you for the follow up. I have heard good things about Clear Day and WyWires as well. I have owned AQ in the past, but I think AZ offers allot of performance for the money. My pre amp will probably be an Audio Research although the JC 2 Ha... | |
Aragon 8008bb/Mk. 2 Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it. I'm looking at a Parasound Halo a21 as well which I think might be a more refined musical amp? Also, any experience with either Acoustic Zen or Audioquest? | |
Any experience on these 2 cable brands Thanks John. I assume the Hologram ii would be similar in presentation to the Satori and Double Barrel then? Have you used the interconnects from these brands as well? Wow ii, Matrix Reference, Columbia, Colorado? | |
Mid-priced solid state options I have the MK.2 version which is the same as the 8008BB just with a better look. This is the version that Klipsch had for a short time before selling to Indy Audio Labs. I bought mine new in 2004 and have not used it that much. Exact same as t... | |
Mid-priced solid state options Thanks George for the feedback and additional detail of the 3.0. The Aragon has a huge power supply. Bigger than the A21 and is stable into a 2 ohm load. The design is a bit older than the Parasound though. | |
Mid-priced solid state options My mistake. Good point. I have SF Venere 3.0. I will upgrade to a larger SF Model in the next few months.Thank you. | |
Is the move up to Parasound Halo A21 worth it? I have heard very good things about the A21 as well. Curious how it might compare to an Aragon 8008bb? | |
Aragon 8008 mk2. or Parasound A21 Thank you for the follow up. I have a Cary CDP 1cd player. My cables are a mix of Purist Audio and Audioquest |
