What Would you Trade your System FOR?
for nothing in the world! 
Those break in CD
As far as I know burning in means to feed the widest possible frequency and amplitude ranges into the system to cover all frequencies and amplitudes of REAL music in a shorter time which then might be needed for burning in.If they succeed in charg... 
DVD A Sacd or Stay put for a while
You write that you are happy with your system's sound. So what are you asking for besides the hype which is made about new formats in the desperate need for new clients in the high end market? I had the opportunity to listen to SACD the other day.... 
110V/50Hz equipment in a 220V/60Hz country.
I use a PS AUDIO power plant which solves the conversion problem in the first place and is a recommendation in the highest order anyway!You also can use a very simple transformer - available up up to 1000 VA - which I did for my WADIA's before I h... 
Balanced or SET Which one is more musical? Need help

Please, learn from my mistakes

High end sub for big room. Suggestions?
You asked about a HIGH END sub - not just the big bang.Go for the REVEL SUB 15 (with REVEL LE-1 crossover/bass amp).The latter can drive two SUB 15s at 1000W output. They really can shake your house AND they are HIGH END! Good luck! 
Which Wadia??
Lev335 is referring to a DAC - you were asking about a transport, right?It always depends on your personal taste. All the WADIAs are of incredible building perfection. I tend to think that the younger the transport is - and the 270 is in current p...

I have EXACTLY the same problems!!! After calling I got the missing issue(s) delivered later.Interesting was that after calling the next couple of issues were MORE THAN ON TIME!!! Funny, eh?I tend to think it's because I am in Germany, but all the...

Please see my humble input to your other thread of that matter.tidemah@compuserve.de 
Revel Studio s great speakers
Yea, Revelfan@yahoo.com - I agree. I listened to the ULTIMA SYSTEM after auditioning the Salon. Well, THAT was the speaker(-system) I wanted!! (Wadia270/27ix, McIntosh MC2000, Kimber Select 1130, Nordost SPM)tidemah@compuserve.de 
Amps/Preamps for Revel Studios
There you have it! X answers - X opinions :-) Well, that's normal, isn't it. But let me throw in my humble opinion. I am a REVEl fan! I purchased the ULTIMA SYSTEM a year ago and for me there is no better speaker in the world for my needs. I test ...
