| Esoteric P70 D70 vs X-01 Limited I wouldn't. I have had much experience with the Esoteric players. They are incredibly well built but sound very mechanical. When I worked at at top NY dealer the X01 was beatten by a player for less then half the price but which was not made as we... | |
| BAT VK-51 SE or McIntosh C200? I would urge you to consider the Cary Slp 05. It replaced my VTL 7.5 and it sounds incredible, one of the best and most magical preamplfiers I have ever heard. It has only a basic remote. | |
| B&W, Dynaudio, Dali or what else? to Matt Zak, I am a Dali dealer as well as many othe fine lines and I also used to sel the Verity Audio speakers.There is no hardness of forwardness in the Dali's however, you can make them or anyother speaker sound shrill if you mismatch it. The ... | |

| B&W, Dynaudio, Dali or what else? It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish.I have the Dali MS 4 with a really terrific subwoofer and the speakers are amazing setup that way!The B&W are bland and don't soundstage as well.The Dynaudio's are very good but the Dali ribb... | |
| Can I expect to pay full retail for a new system? As I dealer this is a discussion which I hold dear.I love the person saying you should get a 60% discount, NOT!The answear to your question should be not how much discount your are or are not entitled to but what is this industry about! High end a... | |
| Review: Usher BE-10 Speaker Your comments are very much to the point however it is allways a set up issue, if you are not using a preamp then you are not hearing the system, also the sterile quality in the system is the Esoteric not the speakers! I sold Esoteric for many yea... | |
| B&W 805S & BAT VK300x SE Integrated. Synergy?? I disagree the Plinius is very tube like, don't discount it before you here it. Also for the record the BAT isn't very tube sounding,but it is excellent, you should try to listen to one before you count it out it is really musical. | |
| B&W 805S & BAT VK300x SE Integrated. Synergy?? You forgot two terrific integrated amplifiers in your list.The Plinius 9200 is shockingly good, terrific bass and a wide well defined soundstage and it is very warm to boot and it is an excellent buy at $4200.00Then there is the amazing Edge G3 th... | |
| Conrad Johnson MF2500A or a high power tube amp I am a Plinius dealer, so I really do agree with the gentileman who was talking about them.I worked for many years in a hi fi store that sold the CJ. The CJ for the money is an excellent amplifier but it lacks the refinement that a Plinius provide... | |
| Anyone have thoughts on the Peak Consult Zoltans? To Sterovox,Your arguments are both amusing and just plain wrong!First of all, I am no internet dealer. In fact, I do no internet sales of any kind! I am a brick and mortar dealer with close to a half million dollars worth of equipment on my floor... | |
| Anyone have thoughts on the Peak Consult Zoltans? This one goes out to Allanbhaganinfo. I respect your opinion but we are one of the first few dealers in the country to deliver and install a pair of the BE 20s. I would agree with you that the first Dancer series model, the extremely good 8571MK I... | |
| Anyone have thoughts on the Peak Consult Zoltans? Boy Stereovox, I'm glad you believe in your products, but your condescending line that Chinesse made products can no way compete with the European or American products is the stuff of the uninformed and xenophobic. The world has changed, remember ... | |
| Is Supratek Chenin a good match for BAT-75SE? The Cary is $7,500.00 and it rocks! I disagree with TVAD. I used to work for a Lamm dealer, I never liked the preamps, the amps were very good, the preamps clean but bland, and the Lamm stuff is very expensive for what you get. To each his own, ch... |
