| Shunyata Hydra Users....Your Opinion please... I used my Hydra2 with Shunyata Diamondback cord. It was very nice, but I upgraded to VH Audio Flavor 4 power cord with Furutech Gold connectors and it is an improvement over the Diamondback. This Hydra2 is for analog components(amp and pre), on my... | |
| Sound signature of AudioQuest? Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun speaker cable is what you need. There are few used ones here now, depending on the length you need you may be able to find a set. I never tried AQ speaker cables, but their ICs sounded pretty dark to me. AZ Satori Shotg... | |
| Loocking for 6922 tubes for my Audio Research LS7 Get Platinum grade EH 6922 from Upscale Audio. They cost a little more than everywhere else, but you get matched tubes that are burned in for 72 hours before they are matched. Great performance for the price. In my ARC LS-15 they sound great. Try ... | |
| New Acoustic Zen Adagio loudspeakers Update....It's been almost 2 weeks. Now we are talking!!!! These Adagio speakers finally gave in to a break in process. Everything smoothed out. Balance is very good with no specific frequency that stands out. Bass is tight, deep. Highs are smooth... | |
| Audio Research Reference CD-7 Kevinkwann, all your CD's are perfectly recorded? I doubt that. Do you still want accuracy? Well, good luck. I'd rather have a cd player that plays music than the one that renders 1/3 of my cd collection unlistenable. Just curious, what cd player ... | |
| Breakin of Marantz SA8260 SACD player Ejresch, I just wanted to mention this upfront - this is not a review of any of these components. Just my observation and my opinion on how these components performed in my own system. Will they sound the same in any other system? I have no idea. ... | |
| Breakin of Marantz SA8260 SACD player Ejresch, my friend, I did not mean to upset anybody I was just answering a question. My friend had this player for a while and I had it in my system and listened to it enough in both his and my system to fairly judge it. Like I said, it is a decen... | |
| Breakin of Marantz SA8260 SACD player Wierd to ask for opinions after you actually made a purchase. But anyways, to answer your 1st question, I would think 100 hours would be a good amount of time to let this player give you an idea of how it sounds. Just leave it spinning a disc on r... | |
| Blue Circle DAC BC501 Thanks Rlew. I now have a rare opportunity to audition this dac in my own system. I will be evaluating it for myself this weekend. So I'll have an idea of what this baby sounds like in my own system. Right now I am using Bel Canto DAC2 which is a ... | |
| New Acoustic Zen Adagio loudspeakers Phil, we'll check 'em out again when I come by to drop off the BC501........which is awesome by the way. Yes, these Adagio speakers are darn good!!!! Way exceeded my expectations for $3700 in both the sound and the looks. | |
| Judas Priest on VH-1 Classic Friday 2-3-06 "turbo Lover" was a cool tune, "Breaknig the Law", etc....they are good. Remember that kid that commited suicide and JP got blamed and sued over this? | |
| Acoustic Zen Silver Reference II ic users.... Zen SIlver are great cables......I would not hesitate to recommend AZ HologramII or Satori Shotgun(if you have 3-way speakers with bi-wire capabilities). | |
| The best powercable for power amps? VH Audio Flavor 4 is burning in right now in my system. It's powering the Hydra2 conditioner that I use to run my amp with. So far I like it. They make a higher model, AirSine, that everyone likes a lot. You can try it out for 60 days, return it i... | |
| New Acoustic Zen Adagio loudspeakers Allright......I checked it out today. Phil and I both suspected that the speakers are not fully broken in yet. It's been only 2 days that the speakers are playing and no way they are 100% yet. But, the good part is, I was very impressed with the p... | |
| New Acoustic Zen Adagio loudspeakers yes....looking forward to that and I'll post my impressions later on this weekend. |
