| Spade to Bananas for B W Speakers Good luck Mike! | |
| Are Sony SACD Machine Owners Crazy?? Can't say I know why, but the redbook CD playback on my Sony 9000-ES is certainly of a high caliber. I haven't made direct comparisons myself yet, but some very respected members have, and they are satisfied that the Sony CD playback is good enoug... | |
| Help Design The DVD Player You Want Hear, Hear! Thunders, can you imagine trying to afford five high end analogue cables, ugggh! I anticipate multi format players at high prices in the next year. My short list of required features: SACD, DVD-A, CD, HDCD 24-96, DVD, DVD-R, DVD-RW, MP... | |
| Best Projector/DVD combination Thunders, I think it's the DVDO version II. We are getting close to what people really need, an all format player, with 5 channel capability with digital and analogue outs, that automatically follows the video flags enabling an automatic switch be... | |
| Best Projector/DVD combination Thunders is absolutely correct. I have seen the Camelot Roundtable, and it is the best DVD player yet,(excluding the Ayre). I have the Sony 9000ES, and it is truly excellent,( I have owned 8 or 9 DVD players to date) but paired with the Sony proje... | |
| Need Help with Speaker Cable My Harmonic Technology Pro9-Plus Bi-Wire cable sounds great with my B&W 805's. You can occasionally find a pair at 40% off here at Audiogon. | |
| Spade to Bananas for B W Speakers Would XLO put on the correct size spades for you? If it seems to be too much hassle, perhaps this is a good time to upgrade your cable. My Harmonic Tech Pro-9 plus bi-wire with the large spade ends fit my B&W 805's, and are a good match. | |
| Amp for Aerial speakers? Classe' is a great match. Most dealers seem to pair them. The emotional center of the music always seems to come through this combo. I think you should check out the Dreadnaught, and find a dealer with the Classe' and Aerial set up if possible, an... | |
| Is 500 hours of break in really nec.? Ditto, Dekay. | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Lamp cord is not acoustically transparent. The quality of the copper must have an effect on signal transfer.The cable companies that offer the purest materials seem to garner the best reviews. Harmonic Technology's single crystal wire comes to mind. | |
| Cables that cost more than the speakers? guess my spell checker can't spell Audiogon. | |
| Cables that cost more than the speakers? Metaphysics, I doubt that anyone would begin with a budget that has a higher dollar amount allocated to cables. Mainly because of system synergy. I think that most people choose their favorite speaker (within their budget) and proceed from there. ... | |
| VHS Audio Recording I used my Hi Fi VCR as a 2 track mastering device for a couple of years when I had a home recording studio, and even mastered a few commercials with it. It was as good or better than many 2 track 1/4" reel to reel decks.I use a Denon DMD 1000 mini... | |
| does mixing kill the soundstage? Slartibart, Thanks for the tips.I'll check on those aspects. The mikes will be mostly Nuemann's. I once mixed to a 2 track Studer and felt it was the best I had heard. Many of the Ampex machines I used were noisier, but they were probably older mo... | |
