| What's the best CD transport for $1500 or less? Audio Note CDT2. Good transport. What about digital cables? Do you think transport is more important? I'd personally go for a cheaper transport, like Sony S7700 dvd player, but would get a great digital cable such as Virtual Dynamics NiteII or Mas... | |
| Audio Research or Rogue Dsremer, Sorry, I thought the LS25 has phono stage. My bad.But what's the PHONO input on it for? Is it just a labled line level input? | |
| Audio Research or Rogue Dan, I heard mixed things about Rogue, but never listened to one myself, so I can't comment on that.How's that a comment? I don't undertstand... Were you offended by what I said because you own that particular piece? If so, I appologize. back on a... | |
| Audio Research or Rogue LS16 is good, but there's no phono section. However, ARC PH5 is a highly regarded phono preamp, so you can add it to LS-16. ARC equipment is reliable. I have my ARC LS-15 preamp since 1999 and am very happy with it.I heard mixed things about Rogue... | |
| where to buy a BNC to RCA component cable? I think we got it, but if it is still confusing, take pic of the back of the tv and back of the dvd player and e-mail me. I'll tell you in a second what you need. | |
| where to buy a BNC to RCA component cable? What would be the reason to use this? Is the sound better than the RCA jacks on back?Single-ended digital audio cables are supposed to be 75ohm. BNC is supposed to be a true 75ohm cable vs RCA, where it is and sometimes it isn't a 75ohm cable(depe... | |
| Recommended Speakers with Krell 450Mcx Mono Amps? You are saying that 2ch is important to you, so as with most speakers, and this applies to B&Ws as well in my experience, the further they are from the back wall the deeper the soundstage and more accurate the imaging will be. Sure you can pla... | |
| Marantz 8260 CD/SACD strange how these 8260 players are so unreliable. I had a Marantz 5-disc cd changer that I paid $400 for in 1997. I stopped using it about a year ago. I gave it to my friend. And it still works. This thing hasn't had a single problem since 1997.I ... | |
| Audiophiles and apartments: Oil and water? I had a neighbor from the downstairs apt say to me while we were riding in the elevator "you listen to the same kind of music we listen to....but just LOUDER"he's a cool guy though....made couple of jazz compilations for him and I haven't heard th... | |
| where to buy a BNC to RCA component cable? component or composite? Look Phil, the HDXV cable is about $100 each and what it is, is a video/digital audio cable. It has RCA terminations that are screwed onto the BNC termination on both ends. So what will end up happening when the RCA comes o... | |
| if you had 2500,what player stands out???? if you stick to a brand and model that is known to be reliable, you should be fine. In my opinion, there is plenty of information on these forums to help you arrive at a conclusion about which players are reliable and which ones aren't. All you go... | |
| Has anyone owned ML 390s and ARC CD3-Mk2 ??? FWIW, if you are considering CD3 MkII you should know that it sounds considerably better through XLR than it does through RCA outputs. So if you heard it in the store running through single-ended cables, you basically haven't heard its full potent... | |
| What room color to complement Champagne speakers? I go for that!!!! Some Grey Goose from the freezer would work better for me....you can have my champagne.this would be a question on a home decor forum as here, people tend to change the speakers faster than the color of the room | |
| What so special about electro-static speaker electrostatic speakers tend to play certain kinds of music well, but generaly, if your preference is rock or blues, stick with dynamic speakers. I've listened to several Martin Logan models over the years and none of them were able to play Metalli... | |
