| Optimizing my CD Source - what to do? so are you using it as transport to your Audio Mirror dac? | |
| Taipan Alpha vs Taipan Helix Alpha thanks...I guess it is flexible enough. | |
| Taipan Alpha vs Taipan Helix Alpha is it as flexible as Audience powerChord? Because it will have to make a pretty good turn. thanks | |
| Have AZ Martrix Ref II's/ Compare to Silver Ref 2 Foster, I think with your config it's a little different. You're running directly to integrated. It's a different story than if you had a source to pre and then pre to amp. So I think the best way to find out is to try. In general, Silver Ref II i... | |
| Comparisons of Audience and VH Flavor 1 PC's Audience is my preffered power cord on every component in my system. The more of them the better. Even if you have other PCs on your analog components, Audience will still shine on a cd player. It is a very flexible cord as well. I had A VH Flavor... | |
| B&W 803D vs N802 you're welcome | |
| B&W 803D vs N802 Rps944, I'd go for 803D if I were you. Better tweeter that provides very smooth highs, 3 bass drivers that will equal if not exceed the bass performance of the N802 and improved crossover. I heard both speakers more than once. 803D is superior. | |
| B&W 803D and Pathos Classic One I heard this speaker with MAC integrated which is 75w/ch. Sounded nice but was not able to play them at realistic levels. MAC would give up. Heard them in another store with MAC 100/ch solid state amp, it gave up playing Metallica at a relatively ... | |
| Audio Research Pre Amp LS15 LS-15 doesn't have a built-in phono section. You'll have to get a separate phono preamp to use with your TT and the connect the phono pre to any available LS-15 line-level input. As far as i-pod, I think you can connect it if you use mini-plug-to-... | |
| Warmer sounding CD Players? I had a modified CD25. It was even way better than a stock CD25 but the way it sounded, it was hyper-detailed and gave me a digitial headache in about 20 minutes. Bel Canto DAC2 successfully cured that problem, even when I used a $60 Philips dvd p... | |
| Herbie's Mini Grunge Buster Thanks Sgr for the update. | |
| Best used amp in the $1500 range I personally like McCormack amps. My current amp is DNA-225, which you can probably get somewhere around your price range, but prior to that I had DNA-0.5 Deluxe and DNA-125. All are excellent amps.Upgrades from SMc Audio are possible if you ever ... | |
| Personal CD player evolution --> Kenwood(don't even remember the model) --> Sony prtble cd driving the amp via line-level output --> Marantz cc-67 5-disc cd changer --> Music Hall CD-25 modded by Sound Odyssey --> Bel Canto DAC2 with Sony S7700 as a transport -... | |
| ARC 100.2/ GOT A PROBLEM turn the amp on without preamp being on. if it still exibits the problem, then call ARC. if it doesn't do the nois thing, turn the preamp on. If you hear the noise then, you probably need new tubes for the LS-16. | |
| Choosing proper gain for preamp. Am I screwed? what is the input impedance on your amp? IMO that should be a factor in selecting a new preamp. 20db gain is high. I think on many tube preamps the gain is normally 6-12db single-ended and 12-18db balanced. Also you have to look at output impedanc... |
