| Esoteric K03 Look guys, i appreciate your experience and willingness to defend Esoteric and try and find an explanation...I wasted 6 months of my life trying to identify the problem on my MPS5: it wasn't bad discs, it wasn't bad luck, it was just a shitty OEM ... | |
| Esoteric K03 Mike,my MPS5 was sent for a checkup and was deemed as operating in accordance to manufacturer specs (i.e. all MPS5 sound like it).The same MPS5 was used at a local dealer for a system setup (they had never even seen a MPS5). While playing a Dead c... | |
| Esoteric K03 Beewee,frenchman here too :)Anyway, the noise i'm complaining about comes from the machine itself: you can clearly and loudly hear the spinning motor of Esoteric drive on the K03 & MPS5 (and many more).It has nothing to do with associated equi... | |
| Wadia S7i digital cable Good question. Just got a S7i GNSC and can't wait to use it as a DAC, would love some tips on choosing cables. | |
| Esoteric K03 Yeah, the Esoteric transports are terribly noisy. I can't believe NO one ever talks about this.Made me get rid of the MPS5 from Playback Designs, the Esoteric OEM was awful. | |
| Dump the Wadia 781? My personal storyTerrible experience with Playback Designs. Owned the MPS5 for 6 months: while the DAC was great, the transport was awful, badly implemented. Also, while my dealer was fantastic, I wasn't thrilled with my US contacts. Finally, I am... | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat Ok are you guys talking about colors actually serious ? I have got to know.Love this thread :) | |
| Accuphase E-460 vs Luxman 509u vs Moon 700i Hey there,compared the Luxman to the Accuphase, and the latter was just so much better it was no contest.Luxman is a good brand, but Accuphase is in a different league.Never heard the moon though. | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat I have just put my 21 month old daughter on my CD player and the effect is amazing.I suggest anyone who has a daughter try this. I hear that if you have a son you get more bass and less voluptuous highs, but YMMV. This can be compensated by adding... | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat You people are delusional.You're certainly not stupid because you're able to write paragraphs with words which makes sentences, but seriously, you have got to stop believing this fairy dust.The mind is more powerful than you can ever imagine, but ... | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat @Geoffkait Were talking about ripping, not D/A process.When you copy/rip a CD with EAC or XLD, the MAT will make no difference. | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat Spectron,with all due respect, that is pure and utter bull****.A ripper, extracting a digital stream from a transport, sees 0 and 1s with error detection algorithms.You could sit an elephant on your transport and if it could support it there would... | |
| Esoteric K-03/Plinius CD-101 Merry Xmas guys.Jkuc, with every post you make, my self esteem and ego get a huge boost.Thank you so much. | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat Im actually talking about the concept itself which i find ridiculous.Just like those Acoustic systems Resonator pieces you hang on a wall which magically transform a room's accoustic's.Audiophile's are really devoid of any common sense sometimes a... | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat This is a joke, right ? Please tell me this is a bad joke. |
