| Esoteric X-01 SE vs EMM CDSA SE SACDs do not murder music. . . irresponsible recording engineers with SACDs murder music!Ditto!Regards,Alex | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? RUR is not nonsense. I am pretty sure Harley would also not call it that.Instead of getting the data off the CD in a single pass, RUR reads the disc until a predetermined level of the total data on the CD has been extracted. In the case of the MP ... | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? 01-03-07: TheaudiotweakIs playing off the memory chip considered a transport?Of course, most of today's DVD based players (even $70 Toshiba) take the audio data off a memory chip, not the transport.Regards,Alex | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? Thank you Olesno! This explains it....I am sure that compared to your Sony 777 the MP is night and day better when used as a transport with the TACT. Regards, Alex | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? ....the MP will be the audiophile king of the source components. I am betting on this.Great news Olesno! It seems like everyone who heard and reviewed the MP at "Stereotimes MP" :-) is using it as a digital transport only. Are you in the same boat... | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? Alex, can you clear this up?I am sorry but I can not clear up this matter. What can I say though is that, IMO, the best digital would be the perfect fusion of technology advancements, actual design implementation and art. Regards, Alex | |
| The best CD Player for the money Ferrari, although I am sure that the Wadia combo is excellent, according to someone who is the F1 legend Michael Schumachers neighbor in Switzerland, his recently acquired $22,000 universal digital player sounds as good as and sometimes better th... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Mr. Hi End Audio, Dave, if you recall, several months ago you were apparently quite impressed with the APL Denon you've heard at Steve's (against your current greatest at the time) so you personally called me to place an order for APL Denon 3910... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Jp1208, I don't think the solid state APL Denon is better than the AKM/tubed version. This is the reason suggesting comparing apples with apples since TUC Denon 3930 is also solid state. Since both AKM/tubed and solid state APL Denon 3910 based pl... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Jp1208, my solid state Denon 3910 sounds really nice but is not nearly as good as the AKM/Tubed one. Tvad have heard them both in his system so he may want to provide some feedback about the differences. Since my long discontinued AKM/Tube Denon 3... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Hey Dave, Mmashak's APL Denon 3910 is a solid state design with MOSFET output, no tubes. I really think that your 3930 should be compared to that one so it is a fair game. I am sure that there will be many around here to believe that Op Amps can b... | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Thank you all for the nice words and continued support! The NWO-2.5 player is something that Ive developed with lots of love and best sound possible in mind. The extremely positive feedback the NWO series have received and the fact that there are... | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? J. Sarduni, it's good to see you around! :-) How have you been? I do think right now a computer setup can beat most high end players, but not the top notch CD playback systems.This is exactly my point! Regards, Alex | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? The computer serves only to provide readable 1s and 0s, and evidently, despite their "noiseball" characteristics PCs are perfectly capable of reading 1s and 0s from CD roms, and hard-drives and streaming them over ethernet or USB without a single ... | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? We are not talking about the "external converter and associates Steve, we are talking about the transport or the Noiseball which can not hold a candle against another transport featuring quiet linear power supplies. It's a fact. What good is exte... |
