| Nordost Frey interconnect hum The balance is not good of the Frey. The Red Dawn rev2 and also the Baldur are better balanced cables. Balance between low, mid and high freq. | |
| Who is the KING of MONOS? Lenvinson sounds dull and almost 2-dimensional. I said a violin sounds in real so much warmer then wenn played on a clinical Levinson. The newer ones are improved in sound compared to the older ones. But still compared to Pass it still sounds boring. | |
| Nordost Valhalla Power Cords I sold Taralabs for some time. I liked it a lot. But Taralabs were difficult company to deliver cables to Holland. Most people don't know how an instrument sounds in real. Wenn I listen to Avalon ( sold it for many years), Spectral and MIT toghete... | |
| B&W 803D or Dynaudio C2's 800, 801 and 802 with Nautilus top makes a big difference in focus and authority. But still in 3d and depth some competitors are superior. Ones you heared extreme 3d holographic sound, you do not want to go back. It is not possible! | |
| B&W 803D or Dynaudio C2's I bought Monitor Audio Pl-300, Pass labs XA100.5, XP-20 and then I uses a Meridian 800Daxv4 as source. Valhalla loudspeakercable. Now I play with Monitor Audio Pl-200 and PLW-15 sub. My amp at this moment is X250.5 ( I think I wil go back to XA100... | |
| Nordost Frey interconnect hum Wenn this cable came out I was asked to test it. Overall balance was not good. Compared to the Valhalla, low freq were quite poor. Mid's lacked focus and very clinical sound. The low freq. were even to thin in sound. I did test the interconnect an... | |
| Nordost ICs cause hum, replacement needed. I remember your poweramps very well. Fast, but clinical for a MF amp. I did some shows for MF in Holland. I sold a lot Nordost for many years. I would recommend Kimber or Audioquest as interconnect. You will win a lot. Much better focus ( individu... | |
| Avalon Acoustics vs Wilson Audio You want to keep the Arcam? Arcam is no match for Avalon or Wilson. Arcam is a brand which is not good at depth. Depth is the strongest property of Avalon. So you need an amplifier who is capable of this. | |
| Nordost Valhalla Power Cords It also depends about your level of knowledge in music. Wenn you do not know how an instrument sounds in real. And you do not know how small in dimension a voice or instrument should be. I had a client with 100% Valhalla. He loved it. There was no... | |
| Nordost Valhalla Power Cords Nice example. I sold a Baldur loudspeaker set a few years ago. My client says to me: can you order Baldur interconnect for me. I said, If I were you I would not do this. Why: because you will get a less focussed image and you will loose depth. He ... | |
| B&W 803D or Dynaudio C2's I owend the Nautilus 802N and the 800S. Thing I loved was the focus. And the sound during classical music. But there is one very important part what is the weakest point of B&W. They are not the best in making 'perfect'filters for there speake... | |
| Purist Audio, Venustas or Aqueous Aqueous Powercables are great for amps. For sources I have my doubts. I used it a few times and compared it with the Valhalla of Nordost. This one was in resolution superior. At poweramps the Aqueous was superior. At the end of this week I will ge... | |
| Topnotch BluRay Concert..... Quality of many bluray concerts are nice these days. my favorites: Jewel The Essential Live Somgbook: Live at the Rialto theatre is by far the best acoustic recoding I heard today.The Police Certifiable: Low freq. are stunning, difinition of high'... | |
| Who is the KING of MONOS? I listend a lot to Mark Levinson amps in my life. I still don't understand why people would want to buy it. Holographic sound is the most important part in highend sound. This is a part were brands like Pass are superior. Let's take another part, ... | |
| Speakers for Musical Fidelity M3i The MA Silver RX series uses the older Gold tweeter. This one is a lot more forgiving. MA is the only brand I know which also has a lot of depth even for the Silver RX series. Wenn you compare these speakers to B&W, Kef, Focal, Dynaudio the st... |
