| To tone control or not to tone control Cornfedboy, I did check into the Z systems digital EQ. It retails for $2500 which i thought was pricey. Their literature seems to indicate that it hooks between the DAC and transport of your cdp so unless you are running separates you cannot use i... | |
| To tone control or not to tone control Thanks Greg. Your comments have been insightful and helpful. As for my comments about the purists, they were meant for humor and not for insult. Hope no one takes it the wrong way. | |
| To tone control or not to tone control I understand that tone controls add distortion. You are right Greg when you say that the system is more revealing now. This started with the addition of the CJ amp. However I am using Sorbathane isolation pads with cdp , and have replaced ic's wit... | |
| What s your latest buy? Happy with it? I just received my Conrad Johnson PFR preamp to go with a CJ MF-2200 amp that I purchased at Christmas time. The PFR really matches well with the amp. This CJ stuff is really sweeeeet. Next on the agenda; speakers | |
| Norh ACA preamp Hey Phild, You are the one who told me about Norh in a previous post. Audioreview also has 3 reviews which it gets a 5 point rating. | |
| Preamp suggestions needed Timvis, I've considered a tube preamp but have seen none with a processor loop. If Sedond is right, hooking it thru a tape loop may be a hassle but still worth considering. Thanks to both of you for the info. | |
| Preamp suggestions needed Thanks Phild for the info. I'll check out the Norh | |
| Preamp suggestions needed Thanks Phild for the info. I'll check out the Norh | |
| Preamp suggestions needed Thanks Sugarbrie for the info on the PFR on auction. I have seen it and will probably bid on it after I pass it thru my Board of Administration (wife). She may just go for it since she likes the CJ amp as much or more than I do. I'm not sure of th... | |
| Do I really need a preamp? OK boys and girls, you,ve made a believer out of me. Actually I thought I knew the answer already but wanted to check with others before making a final descision. I had tried both ways but a faulty cable had caused some intermintent problems that ... | |
| Has anyone heard Dynaco tube CD player Hey Trelja, I've tried to get info on the Cambridge but have had no luck. Their web page gives no info. Where did you get yours and do you know where I can get some info on this player? | |
| Recommendations- Tuner/Preamp w/ pwrCkt Check out the Adcom GTP 450. It is discontinued now and replaced by the GTP 502. You can find a fairly new 450 for $250-350 or spring for a new 502 for about $525. Check out their web page for details. | |
| How to buy from Audiogon? I too have used Iescrow and have been satisfied with the result of the transaction. The seller was also happy with the results . Iescrow is probably the safest way to make a transaction. Paypal is ok but it does not guarantee the quality of the it... | |
| for $700 - 1box or 2 box dgtl playback? Don't mean to butt in but I have a similar budget for a cd player. I have heard the Adcom GCD 700 5 disk player which lists at $700.00. It had an open warm sound. Any input on this unit as compared to those mentioned above is appreciated | |
| Adcom, Acurus or McCormack Thats an interesting thought Tbridges. I have "upgraded" that HK 730 once before when a channel went out only to find that I had taken a step backward instead of forward. Interestingly enough that product gets a high rating on audioreview |
