| CD Player recommendations for a SET system Consider too, that speakers with the same rating can be dramatically different in how difficult they actually are for amps to driveThe DB-99 has a 300W amp in the basement, so his amplifiers are not driving them by themselves. | |
| Who Do You Credit For Getting You Into This Hobby? I always had an interest, having played music for years, but it was Jax2 that toured me around the audio block. Danke, Marco! | |

| CD Player recommendations for a SET system Between this and your other thread, it sounds like we're talking about two different issues. One is that the sound is congested, and you want an improvement in dynamics--which you would surely hear with a higher wattage amplifier. The other is tha... | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 VS Consonance Droplet Also, lots of good reviews of the Opus 21, some saying it is very close to the Aero.In my experience, "very close" in audio has never been close enough for keeps. | |
| Power Cord for Jolida JD-100 Boa2 I have a question? Why don't you recommend the Flavor 4? Thanks!I've done comparisons in at least three different systems with the Flavor 4 on the source. An Electraglide & a Michael Wolff PC both made the highs much more open and transpa... | |
| Two systems in the same room If you're happy with the presentation on jazz with the components you have, I might suggest that you move to a higher end integrated, or a tube preamp/SS (or hybrid) amp, & a pair of speakers that will do rock well: Von Schweikert, Tyler, Silv... | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 VS Consonance Droplet Tickfight,In my opinion, $2K will not get you what you want. Large scale orchestra music has sounded congested with every CD player I've owned or heard under maybe $3-4K used. That includes the RA Opus 21, which I found to lack weight in our syste... | |

| Power Cord for Jolida JD-100 Samzx12, if you are asking which of the two has a brighter/more detailed sound, it would have to be the Flavor 4...at least in the applications I've heard. If it's a choice between the two, I would choose the Flavor 4 for your player. Many people ... | |
| Power Cord for Jolida JD-100 I thought the Vishnu had a clean, balanced sound to it. I also like the Michael Wolff PCs, but I don't see any on the used market right now. You might also try Audio Horizons. Their cords are under $200. They have a free home audition, I believe.... | |
