What time do you wear? Just ordered a very nice new Alpina, which offers an exceptional value compared to similarly designed Swiss automatic divers. | |
Help for a vinyl novice Simao - While the Blue Point is technically a MC cartridge, being a high output design it will work optimally into a MM phono stage as far as loading and gain is concerned. So while you could get a better quality phono stage, as long as you are us... | |
Honey I Shrunk The Krells The weight reduction is due to their use of a newly developed sliding/adaptive output stage bias circuit which maintains Class A operation while operating at much higher efficiency. The new models also incorporate fans for cooling which further sa... | |
Review: Martin Logan Summit X Speaker My sincere thanks to Hthaller for taking the time to provide such a thorough and detailed comparison of these speakers. I have been evaluating the tradeoffs between Magnepan and Martin Logan speakers and found this review extremely helpful. | |
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE Tim, glad that everything is working out so well for you. Now you can enjoy the tunes! I have to warn you though that downloading new high resolution music can be an expensive addiction. | |
Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed Williewonka, thanks for posting the response from KLEI. While I understand their thought process and belief that their design is an excellent choice for digital applications, their plug still has one specific characteristic impedance and cannot th... | |
Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed From the review it appears that KLE has a nice sounding plug, but I find their response to Steve's inquiry about their impedance very puzzling to say the least. Regardless of their linearity at high frequencies, how can a single plug design "easil... | |
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE Responded to your other thread, hope that it helps! | |
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE Williewonka, I don't have a MAC but on a Windows PC you just click on Play under the Previews header to hear an individual track. Then you can hit pause or stop on the player above. When you purchase the music you get 24/96 WAV files. | |
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE I have paid to download a lot of albums, many in even higher resolution than the Sound Liaison titles. Their recording quality however really stands out as some of the absolute best that I have found. Their musical content is also very enjoyable u... | |

Make sure that you are gripping the metal part of the clip and not the wire or you w... | |
Does CDP Analog and digital work at the same time? Generally speaking both the analog and digital outputs are simultaneously active. On some players you need to activate either one or both outputs in a setup menu. | |
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE Tim - for some of the best sounding downloads that meet your criteria I would strongly suggest that you check out Sound Liaison. While they currently only have four titles available, they are all superb recordings made in true 24/96 resolution. I ... | |
Tweeter height...align with ears? There is no standard rule that can apply towards all speakers and listening rooms. As you move off the direct line from the center of a tweeter the high frequency response gradually falls off. This applies to a vertical offset which is affected by... | |
Turntable upgrade, tweaks, or stay put? I haven't personally tried it, but there is a much cheaper alternative to Onzow Zerodust that appears to be very similar in design. I have seen it recommended by some other users who have used it with their very high end analog setups and they ent... |
