From whence does Sound Stage come? I don't know about Sound by Sanders, but if you don't mind used, I picked up my Magnepan 1.7i s for $1,300. They were only 1 year old and just broken in. Planars have a long breakin period. As per my previous post, seems like horns and planars a... | |
From whence does Sound Stage come? Like the poster about 4 channels giving best soundstage, this is cheating too. So Im using my Carver c4000 from 1980. It has Bob Carvers "magical" function of Sonic Holography. Ive heard sounds from far left and right of speakers that are scarey, ... | |
What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? Ive always said, if stranded on an island and had one band's music to chose, it would be Beatles. I know more about them than I need to know and they are one of the few bands where I enjoy every song on every album, minus a few. So, I guess Im a h... | |
Can a system sound too Holographic? I get wanting a home system to have the clarity and dynamics of live music, but it is rare to hear a live concert that sounds great unless in a specifically designed music venue. Ive been to more concerts than not that are boomy, too echoy, etc. ... | |
Can a system sound too Holographic? In 1980 I was so impresssed with a demo of Bob Carver's Sonic Holography pre amp, I drained my savings, bought the c4000 pre & M400 cube amp. Still use the pre amp. Just sold the cube. Replaced with a great Odyssey amp. To me its like the dif... | |
Curious to know what you guys think/like about Pink Floyd's early work I hear early PF as the making of puzzle pieces. The pieces start coming together on Meddle then perfected on DSOTM and after. Echos is my fav PF song. Its like a changing landscape. D.G. & R.W. vocal harmonys blend perfectly. The music starts ... | |
Playing CDs sounds better than Qobuz — dammit @Maynardewm Both my Node 2i and cd player run through the same J2 Geshelli dac which has many good reviews putting up againest dacs 3 x its price $250.00. I do like analog sound so Ill probably go with R2R dac down the road. Ive read many do bi... | |
Playing CDs sounds better than Qobuz — dammit For those here discussing old cd players, Ive got a 23 year old Toshiba SD9200N DVD/cd unit. Dont know much about it, but it was $2k back then and must weigh over 20 lbs. No remote. Can only use cd player and bypass its dac through a Geshelli J2 d... | |
PD-Creative @Jw944ts thanks, that email still works. Node 2i upgrade boards available, but the only 110v ac units for USA are smpsu. Id like to get feedback on Acopians LPS. I like their multi dc out options and price seems good per rail. I know these are... | |
PD-Creative So glad I found this thread. Hopefully I can get help. Im interested in the PD Creative board for my Node 2i. Found their website but no contact info. If its at bottom of home page its in Polish. Yes, selected English at top. Can someone please pr... | |
Made in USA Wow, didnt think this would be such an edgey topic. First off, of course USA companys use some globally made parts just as with cars. Yes, some very good products are made abroad. Sorry for the "not exact" title. It is still nice to see the many ... | |

Ozzy is done Hes just another man. Were all equal in the end with no control of our immorality. Know God and follow his way. We ALL will face judgement day. You ll either have enternal life with him or seperated from his grace. | |
Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? @skinzy Wow, your digital streaming section is at that cost level and you still say say vinyl sounds better. I stepped into streaming a year ago in the $1k range. Its not bad, but Im must be way out of the ballpark to even come close to hearing th... | |
Why Do Some Recordings Sound Great and Others Dead? For what its worth, I use an Analog Production vinyl pressing of Nora Jones' 1st lp to show off my system to friends. Sounds great! So the original recording is very good. Not sure if this helps as a reference for streaming this recording. |
