Has anyone compared the Cary 308t vs. 303/300??? This was discussed on audioasylum some weeks or months ago. Most preferred the 303/300 but one particularly experienced Cary enthusiast definitely preferred the 308T after some tube rolling.Art | |
New SET Amp What do you like and dislike about the Cary?Art | |
DK Design VS- Reference vs Signature Dan, Shari is indeed working for LSA/DK, and what a pleasure it was to spend time catching up with her at CES! I did not drill her on whether she prefers Thiel or LSA speakers ;-)Art | |
DK Design VS- Reference vs Signature Yikes. How can it be that "new old stock" is not really new at all, and you consider that acceptable. This is bizarre. I would assume that NOS means it's been tested but never used for anything more than a few hours. ARt | |
Granite Audio amps I've been very impressed with the Granite sound at CES shows (where most of the rooms had failed to impress me : - )Art | |
jrdg concerto vs nuforce 9.02 At CES I found the Nuforce very impressive overall, but sounding a bit lean. It's difficult to not be amazed given the size and weight, but I felt that for my purpose I'd need a long break-in and trial period (which coincidentally they offer...).Art | |
A few impressions from the CES/THE Shows Rethms: This year the speakers had large wooden extensions attached to the rear bottoms of the speakers. The extensions looked to me as large in volume as the speaker itself. I asked if they were subwoofers. He said not exactly but they are for th... | |
A few impressions from the CES/THE Shows I liked the Rethm. You may have heard them with the subwoofers turned off. I found the coherence beguiling. They are somewhat of a niche product of course.Art | |
My CES/T.H.E. Show impressions It did look lighter in display and attendance to me this year. I love the St.Tropez "THE" show, in particular, in that it seems to attract some new little known designers, some of which are outstanding (and some outstanding well known ones as well... | |
Spendor vs. Von Schweikert? I heard the VR-4 SR and JR at CES this week and they were among my absolute favorites. Very clear, spacious, dynamic, and to my ear, realistic.Art | |
DK Design VS- Reference vs Signature Larry, do you have any idea what Daniel is up to these days?Art | |
DK Design VS- Reference vs Signature Larry, do you plan to have a room at CES?Art | |
Which iPod? If you get a nano (highly recommended!) be sure to get a case right away. I really like the ones at Podplus, just google Podplus.The nano sounds very dynamic, even more dynamic and liquid than my old Apple mini. If you want to run lossless for hig... | |
Theory about Cary amps and their reviewers Nrchy, what speakers were you driving and how worn were the tubes?Art | |
What should be my next phono stage after ear834 I can't speak to most of the brands you cite, but I can tell you that modding the 834p and tube rolling can transform that piece. I owned a stock one and loved it, but I was able to compare it to a modded one. That mod gave it more liquidity, life... |
