| Magico Q7 . . . wow No, yours must be better because it cost more, right? | |
| Musical Fidelity A1008cd or Wyred + Apollo I think you are better off with just the player itself, rather than a transport, through a cable, into a DAC and out. I am sure there are transport/DAC combos that would be very good, but there is something to be said for less "pieces" of gear and... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Ptm...Exactly..You are happy with your system and do not feel like going out and dropping an "extra" $100k that you don't have anyway for (maybe) a little better sound. | |
| Does Dynaudio match Mcintosh MC275? I think that would be a very good combo. I would not run SS with Dynaudio. | |
| Musical Fidelity A1008cd or Wyred + Apollo I would go with a stand-alone player over a transport/DAC combo. I owned to DAC-2 from W4S, but was sending it hi-res files. | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow I would much rather have Dynaudio C1, Sonus Faber Guarneri Momento or Wilson Benesch than a $25k Q1 any day. With the rest of the money I could get a Navitimer World and a few nice dinners. Just because they spent a bunch of time building/designin... | |
| Musical Fidelity A1008cd or Wyred + Apollo Any decent DAC playing ripped files will outperform most CD players. My LINN Akurate DS playing 24/96 or 24/192 FLAC or WAV files will trash many CD players twice its price. | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow I know... where are the moderators? Look at some of the comments that have been made towards me...I do not "hate" Magico speakers, I was merely saying that they are horribly over priced. If you own them and paid retail for them, I feel sorry for y... | |
| CD upgrade. I would look away from ANY CD player and towards a DAC. | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow How is Johnny an asset to Audiogon? He has not bought or sold ONE ITEM ON HERE. And he has no "experience" or "knowledge" and cannot even write in English. | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Johnny...Nothing bought or sold on Audiogon... just a troll. | |
| Can my amp drive the Paradigm Studio 100s You need a lot less power than most would tell you. I have heard 22w tube amp running Dali MS5 towers and sounded great. 90 watts is a lot of power. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Speaker is not the most important piece of the pie - not nearly. Take a decent, competent speaker then it is all about the source. I have seen this in practice WAY too many times. | |
| suggestions--power cords My buddy and I tried several nice cables (JPS, Shunyata, Nordost, AudioQuest, etc.) and the LessLoss beat them all. | |
| Worlds best DAC Or a LINN Akurate DS with no USB or Firewire connection to deal with. |
