| Pink Floyd's "Echoes" Thanks to all. The albums are superb. Whoa! the sound is big, smooth AND slammin', three dimensional, perfectly detailed yet balanced, vocals have very little, if any digital edge. Quite an achievent IMO. Definetely the best I've heard yet, althou... | |
| Pink Floyd's "Echoes" Thanks everyone, I'll head on over to Tower Records this week to pick up a copy. I'll post impresssions after listening for a while. | |
| Burn In Time for TruthLinks Sorry leme, you are incorrect. This topic has been covered ad nauseam. Check out previous threads, no need to start flaming over such small stuff. | |
| Burn In Time for TruthLinks David is correct, 30 hrs. is good, 200 hrs.is perfect. | |
| What's better than HT Platinum Digital cable? I traded my Harmonic Tech Platinum for the Acoustic Zen and never looked back. Almost indistinguishable from my analogue cables in tone. | |
| Yamaha AX 1 or the big Denon? Gekko, with all due respect, I know from owning both pieces and using them extensively that the Denon is superior to the Yamaha, and that is on every level. The fact that one of the worlds most respected reviewers, not "a" reviewer corroborates my... | |
| Anyone heard the new Monster Power Conditioners? Anfield, how much was it selling for? | |
| Pink Floyd's "Echoes" Check out this link to a seventeen minute promo for the album. It is a fairly amazing job. http://stream.qtv.apple.com/qtv/europe/emi/pinkfloyd/doc_ref.movLet me know if the link works. | |
| Yamaha AX 1 or the big Denon? Hi Alex, I had both Yamaha's DSP A-1 and and Denon's AVR-5700, both 1998's top of the line. The Yamaha was very good, but the Denon was significantly better. Much clearer dialogue, bigger and more solid bass and 5 channel "stereo". Michael Fremer ... | |
| Pink Floyd's "Echoes" Thanks Troy, that's very good news! | |

| music for a broken heart Try Emmylou Harris' "Red Dirt Girl". She says nothing makes her feel better than a really sad song. Also,Tom Waits' "Mule Variations" will serve well to take your mind of just about anything. Good luck. | |
| Power Cords for Beginners: Synergistic v. Shunyata The Synergistic power cord is one of the two best choices under $175 second hand. I would describe it as very transparent, with a big soundstage,but a bit lean, so they mate very well with tube gear, preventing too much "warmth". For digital gear ... | |
| Copper v. Silver IC sound I compared the Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference(copper) to the Silver Reference.First, the new Matrix is a great interconnect. It is totally balanced across the entire frequency spectrum. When compared to the Silver Reference I was left with a diffic... | |
| Anyone heard the new Monster Power Conditioners? Hi Sam, I have had two HTS-3500's. The earlier model actually sounded ever so slightly better than the newer one,go figure. Look forward to your opinion of the 2100 when you get it. |
