| CD Players With Balanced Variable Outputs? Cary 303/200 and Cary 303/300 | |
| Which modded cdp? I own several CDPs, one being a Music Hall CD-25 with the Level 1+ mods done by Parts Connexion. For the money,($550 used) it's a very good player which includes HDCD. I've upgraded my CD source a couple of times since purchasing the Music Hall an... | |
| $1,000 to spend on room treatment.... If you have the interest or time I would recommend trying some DIY treatments first. Theres a lot of good information on the web - check out Audio Asylums Room Acoustics Forum, Rives Audio and Ethen Winers sites. After doing research, I made a ... | |
| Tyler Accoustics Lynbrook system ones David12 - A couple of people here on Audiogon have heard and/or purchased the speakers and one had a pair up for sale due to financial reasons. I talked a couple of times with Ty while he was developing the speakers and he was very excited about t... | |
| Tyler Accoustics Lynbrook system ones Well, you call Ty, tell him the speaker you want and then give him your credit card number. ;-) Seriously, I had some reservations when I bought my first pair of Taylo 7Us, but none at all when I got the Linbrooks. Like many people here, I have li... | |
| HDCD a flash in the pan already?? I have a Cary 303/300 and a modded Music Hall CD-25, both with HDCD. Even though HDCD was not a factor for me originally in purchasing a player, it became one. I was surprised at the number of disks that are out there and I believe that it does ma... | |
| trying to decide between Cary 303/300 and BAT CD One of the nice things about the Cary 303/300 is its ability to be "tuned" to your listening preferences in different ways. You have the obvious choice between SS and tube output as well as multiple upsampling choices - all on the fly, which is ve... | |
| How many audio systems do you have in your home? Three systems and expanding. I have my primary two-channel rig in a dedicated room. Then I have a modest HT system in my family room which is primarily movies and occasional background music. Then there's a simple system in the basement for my two... | |
| cd players with volume control Cary 303/200 and Cary 303/300 will both work as well. The 303/300 also gives you the added option of switching between SS and tube outputs which provides a little more flexibility in finding the sound you want. | |
| ASC traps vs. REALTRAPS ???????? You can also make a DIY version of the RealTraps design using Owens Corning 700 series products. Ethan Winer (RealTraps owner) has a good amount of information on one of his web sites about rigid fiberglass and their sonic properties.After a lot o... | |
| Room Acoustics Working on your room acoustics is probably one of the most important things you can do to improve the sound of your system. It also allows you to better evaluate every change in components and is simply one of the best bangs for the buck around.A ... | |
| CARY 303/200 CD PLAYER The only way to tell is to listen with your own ears. I've owned the Cary 303/200 (and 303/300) and it's a very good unit. I would try it with the pre first and then try direct to the amp. My personal preference was through my ARC tube pre, but yo... | |
| Advise on acoustic treatments to fix boomy bass. Be certain to check the Room Acoustics forum (sponsored by Rives Audio) on Audio Asylum which has a ton of information. Ethan Winer (musican and owner of RealTraps) is a frequent contributor there and his web sites are a "must" read for those inte... | |
| Tyler Accoustics Lynbrook system ones I second the advice to give them some time to break in. They'll start sounding better at 50 hours, but they really come into their own with another 100-200+ hours on them. They're a very revealing speaker that will let you hear any changes you mak... |
