What to upgrade next? The biggest improvement in your system will come from upgrading your speakers. The cables may add some sound changes but better speakers will open up a new world of sound. Not that I think yours are bad, but look up the line and you will get bette... | |
Will Audio Logic DAC improve EMC-1? Yes 2400 but there was not a 25% improvement just slightly different flavor of sound the Chord being slightly more dynamic and clearer with better separation of instruments than the AL. The Electro DAC is a great value for the money an improved my... | |
Confused about Krell FPB 300 400 200 Amplifiers The new Mcx 450 mono block series is a better Krell moving away from the old Krell sound and adding better mids and highs.Happy Listening. | |
Will Audio Logic DAC improve EMC-1? I compared both in my system using either a Sony SCD-777ES CDP or modded Shanling T-100 as transports. I was also using the updated version of the AL DAC. To my ears the AL DAC was more to my taste but the Electro DAC throws a very wide soundstage... | |

Krell FPB differences I have heard teh Mcx 450 mono blocks and they break away from the typical Krell sound that has been described over the years. The mids are more musical and the highs are slightly more extended and natural sounding.Happy Listening. | |

Need DA convert The only option for SACD output is a filter of some kind that was sold by the cable company. I have never tried it but it was selling for around $500 and they offer a money back trial period.Happy Listening | |
Replace amp or speakers ? Not a very good idea to change the amp if you are going to consider changing the speakers inthe near future. Mating the speakers and amp is critical to getting the sound you want. I have not heard the Rowland monos yet but they are on my list soon... | |

Best available Tube Dac around 3k The Audio Logic was one of the best tube DACs that I have heard so far, but I did prefer the Chord over it. I did not get a chance to roll the tubes. I have not heard the MF, AN, Audio Aero or the Tube Technology DACs yet.Happy Listening. | |
Sony SCD-1:Is it time to tweak or upgrade to new? I agree with all of the above although I have the SCD-777ES SACD/CD player. My concern has always been getting back my investment after the mods. I have heard a few of the modded 777s and they sound much better than the stock. I recently compared ... | |
