| Care to share your scams? Well folks, here's a LEGITIMATE scam for you, I recently bid on an AMD K6III+450 CPU from a company called CONNECT-COMP in California that was posted on E-Bay. (I can see most of you rolling your eyes already..) This chip does exist, and was used ... | |
| Best Pre-Amp w/Throughput for HT ? With the gear that you have now, I would give strong consideration to either the Mark Levinson 380 or 380S, both have the home theater bypass... go with the "S" version if you can swing it.Alternately the Krell KRC-3 also has an HT blow-through ci... | |
| Aragon D2A...I like it...sorta... Ok.. here's the poop..The original D2A was upgraded to Mk2 status to take advantage of an enhanced low jitter input circuit (which at the time was quite unique). I suspect what you are hearing is the added jitter from your NAK transport. If you ca... | |
| aragon 8008bb vs. bryston 4bst Definately go for the Aragon with the N804's.. you'll be happier in the long run. It will give you better performance through the mids and highs (the N's strongpoints) and a rock solid bass performance to boot ! | |
| best amp for rinning 802n under 1200 I have had enormous success with a Musical Fidelity A300 integrated (on the N804's) if you want to go the route of an integrated.Otherwise I would suggest a used Aragon 8008BB (one hell of an amp!) Otherwise.. sell the N804's (or N802's) until you... | |
| User group for B&W speakers Ditto... a happy N804 owner.. | |
| Blue Circle BC3 Galatea - thoughts Although I can't comment directly on the sound of the BC3, I can comment on the sound of the BC3000 (which uses the same GALATEA power supply) in my opinion this is one of the finest sounding (overall) pre-amps that I've had the pleasure of using.... | |
| 803N power Requirements? If you had really read the N803 review in Stereophile, you would have noted that Sam had great results with the Musical Fidelity A300 amp.My own experience with the A300 driving a pair of N804's suggests that the match is a good one, and that the ... | |

| Cheap Canadians Not to badger your praise of "things Canadian" and yes "I am Canadian!" but do try to get your facts straight. First and foremost it is true that Canadian speaker manufacturers have had the beneficial use of the National Research Councils(not the ... | |
| Digital cable recommendations? Try to find an MIT Digital Reference, of all the ones I have tried, it seems to have the nicest blend of vices/virtues. Otherwise if you are looking for something good on the cheap, try the Illuminations (Kimber) DV-30. I use it to connect my DVD ... | |
| Best DAC under US$300 I agree with Fasca, in fact it's my D2Amk2 that he's talking about. It is however rather sensitive to transport and cable used. We have gotten AWESOME results with an MIT Digital reference cable and my Sonic Frontiers SFT-1 transport, but, as he p... | |
| Speakercable for B&W Nautilius I am running Transparent MusicWave Super BiWire on my Nautilus 804's and it sounds awesome (driven by a Krell KSA-200S) Definately have a listen to some of these cables, but I would recommend that you not go below the "Super" level of product with... | |
| Please help: Speaker wire ? You guys are NUTS ! The AV-10 is FAR from being a bright sounding component, extensive exposure to it has led me to believe that it is one of the more "civilized" sounding receivers available. I might question the source component, but since it is... | |
| 5 Channel Amp for MIRAGE OM Theater???? I would lean towards the Acurus, or if your budget can stand it, Aragon has a new 5 channel amp based on the 8008BB, really nice !! |
