| moving on from Emotiva UMC-200 pre/processor I oppted for the Emotiva over the Oppo 105 as the analogue dacs sounded rather thin in the midrange/bass due to the high resolution and extension it has.The Emotiva beat it in 2/5 channel analogue hands down. Great eq-ing in the emotiva. Also, if ... | |
| Info on Gingko Cloud 10 & 11? Buy the new Sistrum Apprentice stands. Amazing reviews and good pricing...... | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? I am awaiting some digital/analogue Shorties from high-end electronics. Supposedly they work extremely well and very cheap. They go into your unused analogue/digital connectors on your components. I have an Akiko Audio AC tuning plug plugged into ... | |
| synergistic research's element copper @Sabai, how do the David Elrods compare to the HD P3 or P4? | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers The designer, apparently his line of work was on submarines isolating the computer from the submarine. So resonance control for sure but compared to the Stillpoints, I did a 2 hour comparison back and forth with the Oritons and definitely the Orit... | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers In relation to the stillpoint ultra SS's, I have done a direct comparison with the Ultras to a set of Oriton SC35's and preferred the Oritons. Increased resolution, well defined and tighter bass(not muddy), greater focus around vocals and instrume... | |
| Emotiva UMC-200 vs Primare SP31? I had an Emotiva UMC-200 and it was quite good. I found the calibration to be way off though for EQ'ing. I now use my Oppo 103 hdmi with extremely good video, but the analogue isn't great, awfull volume control. I am awaiting Emotivas XMC-1 proces... | |
| HiDiamond Power cords... Lak, me neither..... | |
| HiDiamond Power cords... @highstream, sorry for late response, I agree with Ozzy in that the P4 sounds calmer and effortless. I hear an inner delicacy with the P4 than a P3. The P4 is a few stairs up from the P3 in many many ways. But that's why it is what it is and demol... | |
| Speakers for low power tube amplifier Does anyone have or heard the floorstanding Casta Acoustic D8's with any tube gear? I've heard from a few it needs tube and not S.S power. They are 93 dB efficient with a large compression driver & horn tweeter with an 8inch mid bass and 8" ba... | |
| Something to replace glass shelves.... Thx Ebm. I'll do that.... | |
| Something to replace glass shelves.... @Ebm, which model symposium would you suggest for the shelving? Have you tried the symposium under floorstanding speakers? | |
| Something to replace glass shelves.... @Buconero117, I've dealt with hifipyon sound and they make really good platforms and equipment. I've bought a custom sub platform and cable elevators from them and the engineering is top notch. Pricing is very comparable too. He uses Parka wood an... | |
| Something to replace glass shelves.... Thx for help. I did get a quote for a 18x18 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch Cast acrylic in black with polished edges and it is pretty reasonable. I just can't decide if I want clear acrylic and frost edges and put led lighting on back or try the black with... | |
| Svs sub : should i go with sb13 ultra or pb 13 I have an SVS PB13 Ultra in black gloss with Casta Acoustic D8 floorstanding speakers and they blend perfectly. I run it at 80hz crossover and maybe 2 on the dial with all ports plugged. Just stunning. Mind you I had a $600 Hifi Pyon Mythology sub... |
