| What do audiophiles do in their cars? I have a 2011 Mini Cooper hardtop and the upgraded Harman Kardon system (replete with - hello! - CD player) is pretty astounding. It does bass really well, but you don't want to overload it. Other than that, the watchword is: vivid. | |
| Upgrade my CD player or futile effort? Quick weigh-in as the owner of a Bryston BCD-3. For years I was using a Rotel RCD-971 CD player, a mid-line winner of many honors, modified with an upgraded clock from LC Audio to reduce jitter and their amazing Zapfilter, a single-end Class A ana... | |
| Stereophile's 2021 products of the year To the guy who said to stay away from speakers below 92db. Between that and all the writers who say Stereophile is all payola, this whole thread couldn't be more depressing. Dude - if I may call you dude - listen to Joseph Audio Pulsar speakers, w... | |
| Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else Soooo many responses! I think you're on the right track. The Luxman 900 amps are amazing. | |
| 6000 dollars CD player Bryston BCD-3. No need to spend $6,000! | |
| Sky HIGH fi Me lose sleep? Ha ha! NEVER!!!! | |
| Sky HIGH fi Sort of worried folks like this are going to change the nature of the market, inserting themselves as speculative middlemen, which is pretty much what they are. If a whole layer of these folks get in, it's going to be harder to buy rarer pieces at... | |
| Used McIntosh Amp or better new options out there? - Amplifier or Integrated I know a lot of water has passed under the bridge on this thread, but I do like those Salk speakers. I'd buy speakers first way before you consider the amp, and tubes over solid state all day long with a few exceptions - like the Luxman you mentio... | |
| Bryston BCD-3 Display yes, mine too. Having used a Rotel RCD-971 for years, it surprises me that the Bryston also is not as functional in terms of choosing tracks off the remote. Nevertheless, great disc player. | |
| Bryston 4B3 or Ps Audio M700 monoblock? This is for gammonit_2000: The BCD-3 is a very good, not great, player. I'm not a fan of its button ergonomics and they promised a plastic remote to replace the ridiculous $350 remote that is optional with the player and never delivered it to mark... | |
| A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars? No more than a TV show being top-rated would make me watch it. How you extrapolated what you wrote from my post is beyond me. | |
| A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars? You know what I suddenly just wished? That sales of all audio equipment were tracked and published and we could see, in numbers, what everyone, everywhere, is really buying. | |
| A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars? You know, perhaps its a way to up the price of the Pulsars to a point the company believes is justified, considering their quality and reviews. Maybe the new model is better, I don't know. I've read some on some boards calling Pulsars overpriced a... | |
| A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars? I like the idea of greater corrosion protection, since I fully plan to live forever . . and ever. | |
| A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars? (Laughing) Not ANOTHER upgrade!!!!!!! |
