| TRL 595-how good is it? Lkdog, it is true, for now. It's very sad that Pioneer discontinued the 563a model, but you can always do a little research and find what people have to say about the APL modded version of it. It was $695 total.Regards,Alex | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? Lkdog, I am glad you're not offended at all!I would see your point about my "marketing methods" if I had a current product that costs $700, or if this thread was about the $35K Zanden combo.Enjoy the 595!Alex | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? Lkdog and other proud TRL595 owners, I am sorry if my previous post offended you! I never "attacked" the TRL 595 and I am sure it is a great value at $700 (as I mentioned before). What I have said is the truth about this machine, and the intension... | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? Maxxfell, the 595 is the cheapest possible CD/SACD player as intended by its manufacturer Sony Electronics. It incorporates All-in-one, cost effective Digital Signal Processor which has the Servo, CD and SACD processing built in. Although it is ... | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? Guys, it is real fun reading this thread. Thanks Mr. Smilin...:-)Now, I am wondering, what would be a cost effective modification which is highly proprietary and sells for $550 (assuming the base machine cost is about $100)? Looking at the Service... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Jayctoy, as I mentioned, I have listened to your player on three occasions and in two different systems. What I heard (and measured) was consistent as well. I also know in detail how your player is built from the AC power inlet to the analog outpu... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Jayctoy, I am glad for you that you are happy with Dan's 9000ES. Let me tell you that I have heard the 9000ES as you have it on two occasions in my own system. Also, I've heard it in a local reviewer's house in his system. In both cases, we compar... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Jayctoy, "Fla the transport in my cdp was not an issue.If I were you, I will email Dan."Hmm, I really think that YOU should call Dan. "Fla" is right, too many transport problems with the 9000ES. Fla, yes the 999ES has been updated. Also, Dan's 999... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Audio_girl, unless you have heard the "slightly modded DV-50" and the "full blown" Denon 3910 in your own system or under FAIR conditions, your posts do not make much sense.I can not stand the "fact"? You must be kidding...:-) Regards,Alex | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Tom, .As far as the Denon 3910, it is a completely redesigned unit that you put your name on. The DV-50 is something you modify if you have to. If this is not true, you could have stepped up at any point in this thread to say otherwise. .>... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? I have started many messages that I was intending to post, but I deleted them.You are right; slightly modded DV-50 is as good as or better than my Denon. Same applies about any stock, slightly or extensively modified digital player available on th... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? I am sure that you have previous experience of comparing digital front end equipment but I just wanted to throw in my few cents. First of, it is very important that you have a Pink Noise CD and SPL meter to EQ levels. If you don't do that you can... | |
| CD Player versu Dedicated Transport Pubul57, the extra electronics does not matter as it is completely different signal path. The digital output comes directly from the transport of your CD player so it is the same as if you had a dedicated CD transport. Some CD transports offered o... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Springbok10, it was mentioned earlier that they will bring DAC6e (note the "e"). It is the new $12K updated version of DAC6 and is exactly the same as DCC2 less the built in preamp in the DCC2.Regards,Alex | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Tgun5, there are two master clocks for the upsampling in DV-50. There is also another master clock circuit that provides six (6) more clocks for the PCM, SACD and Video processors. This totals eight (8) clocks needed for the machine. It is essenti... |
