| Xindak SCD-2 question I personally don't recommend it because when you turn the unit off, the volume is reset to full. Not a problem if you always remember to turn the volume back down, but it will only take one time to damage your system- and possibly your ears!As far... | |
| Anyone evaluate the Xindak ? I own the Xindak 6900SE along with the SCD-2 player. The integrated is very good- nice imaging, detail, and great dynamics. While I have to say that this wasn't better than the separates I had, it was pretty close and for less than the cost of my ... | |
| How do you like the Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood? I just got one last week 03/20/2003 along with a VPI Scout and the stock JMW 9 tonearm- Normally, I wouldn't consider even posting this soon because neither have been properly broken in- but I just can't resist- This cartridge is the real thing. M... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? I have an old Bedini 100/100 DE. In my opinion, this is one of the best amps out there. I've recently had sent mine into Bedini for the upgrade. It cost me over $400 after shipping, but the upgrade did wonders for the amp (which reminds me that I ... | |
| What to do when seller does not send item paid for It's sad, but there's not a whole lot you can do if the money order has been cashed. This is out and out stealing, but when you go to the post office to report mail fraud, they brush you off and are very unhelpful about any advice whatsoever (at l... | |
| Acoustat HT system Sorry, I can't remember, but didn't the 1+1's come with a sub? It's been 15 years since I've heard them, but I don't remember them as having the dynamics comapared to today's speakers. Yes, they produced a wonderful soundstage and were quite music... | |
| No bass for HT with Vandersteen 2wq... SD, thank you very much for taking the time to go in depth with you explanations. I will take your advice and spend the $150 to buy the crossover. Part of the reason I didn't buy the crossover was I tried one and I felt it altered the soundstage a... | |
| Opinions on the ulitmate dvd demo... I finally found the Superman DVD after going to 4 different shops! After making a few adjustments so that I could hear my sub with my HT system, I finally got to listen and wow! I don't think there's much else that has anywhere near that amount of... | |
| Recommendation for HT w/Vandersteen 2Ce I'd be sure to go with the 2W vs. the 2wq sub if you like explosions and are using this for a HT only. My Adcom processor doesn't do a good job when it routes the sub signal back into the 2 front mains and I lose all the bass. It's not very satisf... | |
| Best Amp/Preamp for Sonus Faber Concertino-Please I have a pair of concerto homes (same crossover and crossover point as the concertinos). I've found that these sound very good with a wide variety of electronics- but one thing I've always done is used with good, neutral sounding cables to maintai... | |
| Is it OK to leave a tube preamp on all the time? Thanks to all of you for your responses. Valid arguments on both sides! I'll probably just move my Mccormack preamp out to my HT system and use all of the great advice for the VTL on my music only system (but only if the sound quality is not signi... | |
| Bookshelf Speakers If placing against the wall, stuffing the rear port will help a bit and lessen the boominess and tighten up the bass. The Revel m20's are decent sounding and have a placment compensation switch to adjust for bookshelf placement. I've never heard t... |
