| What defines mid-fi versus high-end? Depends on the individual’s ear as well, as everyone has different preferences as well as levels of expertise on how to listen. But if my way were the hifi-way, hifi simply means holographic. Natural and detailed in presentation to the point that ... | |
| Power conditioner Choice, synergistic versus Niagara versus transparent I couldn’t give you comparisons to the three you provided, but I’ve been using the Synergistic Research PowerCell for a few generations of its release now. I started with the PowerCell 12 UEF SE with the blue outlets and a SR Atmosphere Level 3 po... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages It’s still worthwhile to hear what folks like, for others’ learning benefits. @rauliruegas Wouldn’t a RIAA response of +/-0.2db only sway at a max 0.2db at any single frequency? What phono stage do you use that sways a total of 0.11db? | |
| most beautiful (looking) speakers Since this is about looks and not sound (not to say these sound bad!): Raidho C3.2 in Walnut Burl - something about the white drivers mixed with the incredible finish and shape just makes me drool. While these don’t sound anywhere near as good as... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @rauliruegas Thanks - can you share where you saw that? | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @rauliruegas Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I’m still curious, though - I asked before. Are you referring to the 0.4db on the BMC or the Audionet? One thing I am skeptical about is uniformity of measurements. Sometimes manufacturers will state... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @pindac Nicely said. | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @herman and @rauliruegas Let’s not let this escalate any further. To be fair, the term “critical” is subjective to each listener, and we do know Raul has very high standards. :) @herman I do empathize on how your words were misconstrued. I ag... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @photomax I appreciate your call out very much, thanks. I was worried it might go that route myself and glad it did not. A somewhat fitting statement, someone I work with introduced me to “The Platinum Rule”. Where the golden rule says to treat ot... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages Hey @rauliruegas - thanks for your thoughts and making me look into it. Are talking about the BMC unit? The Audionet claims +-.2db. While the BMC doesn’t list the spec, they publish the chart, which is almost completely flat (0db deviation) from 6... | |
| Moved countries, help me get a new stereo system My goodness, you’re in Denmark. Get yourself immersed in some Dutch audio brands beyond Dyn! If you haven’t bought them, look into Scansonic. The MB series were designed by Michael Borresen of Raidho, modified by Benno Melgaard of Gamut. Incredibl... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages So just to update this thread, I’ve made a few decisions and settling on two phono stages actually. The first is on the Audionet PAM G2 with outboard EPC power supply. Should go perfectly with my cartridge, and the engineering of the unit fascina... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @herman many thanks for having me revisit aaudioimports.com. I tried before from laptops and the site wouldn’t load for me, but today it worked on my phone. I’ve sent an email to the distributor to inquire. For others commenting on Whest, Musi... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @herman I just came across the MCCI Signature ULN myself two days ago and was very intrigued by it! Can you share where you got yours from? I can’t find any dealers in the USA and I trued contacting BMC directly and did not get a response. | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @tyray I don’t think anyone else on this thread makes a direct comparison, but lots of useful info here. I participated in this thread as well, and Dan Wright too commented. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/herron-vtph-2a-vs-modwright-ph-9-0 |
