| seeking 55 inch LED TV matte Screen, 2011 model The LG 55LW6500 is quite a good looking set that has a matte screen. I am curious to see the new full array "Nano" LED that they are coming out with but it will have a piece of glass over the screen I believe so that option is out. The PLEX media ... | |
| Bryston BDA-1 Cable Box Problem I would check to make sure the outputs on the cable box are putting out 2 channel pcm and not surround sound 5.1. If it's putting out 5.1 you won't likely get signal out of the DAC. | |
| Best CD I've heard so far 2011......... I vote for Iron And Wine--Kiss Each Other Clean.Love the sound, love the songwriting... | |
| Looking for CD players with digital inputs. Yes, knowing how much you want to shell out would be most helpful. At any rate, the Audiolab 8200CD/8200CDQ would fit the bill for what you are after. It has 2 optical, 2 coax inputs plus Asynch USB. The 8200CD is around a grand and the CDQ is aro... | |
| Phono stage ideas I have also been looking in that range and the new Sutherland 20/20 looks pretty good as well. If memory serves, the JC3, BPS and 20/20 are all just under $2500. | |
| Which cartridge for Graham Slee Era Gold V? I have not tried the Dynavector carts but the 20XH and 10x5 should both work great.I have used the Clearaudio Virtuoso wood with good results as well as a Denon DL160 and a Sumiko Blackbird. The blackbird was good but maybe a bit too smooth and I ... | |
| Suggest new bands to listen to I have thoroughly enjoyed the 2 recent albums that The Acorn have put out-- Glory Hope Mountain and No Ghost. Sounds just right somehow every time I put them on. The new Iron and Wine-Kiss Each Other Clean is quite good if you haven't heard it--de... | |
| SACD & HDCD Player I believe that the Cary players will do what you are looking for and are quite well regarded as well. CD306 Pro will for sure do it. | |
| Amps that work well with Acoustic Zen Adagio Apparently this speaker works well with a lot of amps so you'll have a lot of choices.I went from a DK designs hybrid to the LFD LE II to an LFD NCSE. Couldn't be happier, the LE II was great and the NCSE is essentially a punchier and more refined... | |
| Audiolab 8200cd and dac I don't believe that there is a US distributor right now so you won't likely get much feedback on this site. They have just started shipping in Europe and in Canada as well, there isn't a lot that has been said as yet as it's a brand new piece. I ... | |
| Anedio d1 vs benchmark dac? I have not heaard of the Anedio DAC but the W4S seems to be a reasonably popular option right now. If you can stretch it a bit, the Bryston DAC also seems to be quite well regarded. I am a former Benchmark and current Lavry DA10 owner I would sugg... | |
| Benchmark DAC1 AES-EBU from COAXIAL-SPDIF signal Canare and Neutrik make 75 to 110 ohm adapters as well.I ordered one off of ebay at one point to use with my Lavry DAC and they sent me the wrong one, haven't gotten around to getting another yet. Any of the online pro audio shops carry these.Most... | |
| best support shelf/isolation device for a rega p9? I am using a Target wall shelf with a black diamond racing shelf in place of the mdf one that comes with the Target under my p9(original series table with RB1000 arm in place of the RB900 that came with it). I took the stock feet off and am using ... | |
| New Grateful Dead Box set...Opinions? If I had to explain you wouldn't understand...Haven't heard it yet but I am going to take the plunge. If you watch the blurb on their site on the set, their archivist explains that they are all taken from the original analog masters and they are t... | |
| Ess Sabre Dacs My understanding is that the new John Westlake designed Audiolab players use ESS DAC chips.They seem pretty intriguing for sure, 5 inputs including asynch USB and a clock locked transport as well.8200CD and 8200CDQ are the models I think, the CDQ ... |
