| CHALLENGE: Best speakers for playing 1812 Overture by Eric Kunzel with real CANON at 92+dB A lot of music recording sounds decent even on Sonos because the dynamic range is limited. I assume the appeal of hifi is the ability to "reproduce" good recording that has both soundstage and dynamic.This particular 1812 overture by Eric Kunzel S... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? As of today...the B&W 800D3. | |
| nautilus 801 bass accuracy I owned one in 14x20 room. Its bass extension is awesome, it can be felt instead of just heard. The mid bass is not overwhelming unlike typical multi small woofer design. It is better than Revel Ultima, Wilson Puppy for playing loud orchestra music. | |
| Why does my Denon 5910CE transport not sound good? May be the laser was optimized for reading SACD layer?As an SACD player, it still one of the best for under $1000 ? | |
| Multi channel SACD and DVD/A player under $2000 How about Denon DVD-3930Ci?I heard it is better than their 5910 for SACD audio playback. | |
| Paradigm Signature Servo vs JL-Audio F112 I own DD-18 and my brother owns Revel B30.I like Revel B30 better for music sound quality.But I like the DD-18 better for movies. | |
| Bi-Amp Combo opinion I did something similar with No333 and Audio Research.The slew rate is so different between the two amps; the speakers lack coherency but it has the tube charateristic.I switched back to bi-amp with identical AMPs | |
| Krell showcase or other 5 channel amp I owned Proceed AMP-5. It was an excellent amps, the sound is more lively and open than equivalent Krell KAV series but never compare it to showcase. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? B&W 801 nautilus for imaging and dynamic | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? In my system, the two channel SACD has better sound quality (resolution, dynamic) than its multichannel.It may be due to higher resolution encoding on the two channel layers.However, we could not hear the difference on my friend's lower end system... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Sony SCD-555ES for SACD/CD under $500.Sony SCD-XA777ES for SACD/CD for under $1200.Denon 3930Ci for SACD/DVD-A/CD for under $1200. | |
| Looking For A Vinyl Setup If you don't mind used equipment, then an used VPI Scout will be well within your price range. For additional savings, you can get an used belt drive TT, such as AR ES-1 or The Turntable, for about $300-500 depends on condition, then you can upgra... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Many recording has been optimized for 2 channel.I have 5.1 set up with Nautilus 801 and Levison gear.On some recording such as 1812 SACD, I do find the multi-channel provides deeper soundstage however, it is not as forward or details perhaps due t... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? B&W Nautilus 801 bi-amp with a pair of 333 Levinson.Play loud and excellent dynamic without the strain. | |
| Nautilus 801 bass/room size amplifiers I also have 20x20x8.5 room.I sit 15ft from the front and place the N801 40" from the front wall (measured to the tweeter) and 8.5 separation.Did you say it will improve the sound by sitting against the backwall and move the speakers forward? |
