Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better?
This is the longest 7th inning stretch ever. Let's get back to the game? Avguru, what's next? 
Any heard/heard of Whest DAP.10 R processor?
Rob,I did in fact hear from James today, as he apparently had been alerted to my post on this forum. I told him that I would be happy to post his e-mail as well, but only if he OK'd it first. However, I think that from my response to him (below), ... 
Any heard/heard of Whest DAP.10 R processor?
This is a follow-up to my brief experience with the Whest DAP.10. I say brief because I ordered the unit several weeks ago from Audio Advisor, and when I received it on the 7th of this month, it was not working. It is in fact on the way back now t... 
Audio Aero Prima vs. Resolution Audio Opus 21
All clear now.Thank you both. 
Anyone from the Greater Detroit Area remember this
I grew up hearing stories from my parents (they went to Mumford High) about the weekend Motown Review. They used to attend regularly. Now it's all beginning to make sense. They had nothing but Motown in their record collection. Then we moved to Ca... 
Audio Aero Prima vs. Resolution Audio Opus 21
Just to clarify this, if I ran the standard RCA or XLR on the Opus 21 into a preamp, would I have any issue with the volume control on the unit--since I have not bypassed it with the DIN connector?

Lrsky,Are you by chance referring to my all-time favorite player, the balletic Julius Erving? Love that move he made soaring underneath the basket and virtually out of bounds, only to hook the ball under the opposite side for the score. And his co... 
Meadowlark Kestrel II vs. Soliloquy 6.2
Well, Tojman, I just knew there was another speaker I needed to hear. Making a mental note...TYLER.Thank you,Howard 
Meadowlark Kestrel II vs. Soliloquy 6.2
Wdi,I should say that we have a SET amp/horn system, with 104dB speakers. Many of the cables, power boxes, and even power conditioners have had the effect of veiling the sound, making it seem like the highs are simply smoothed over. So I can't ima... 
Meadowlark Kestrel II vs. Soliloquy 6.2
Tojman,You really found a 30Hz speaker to have "no bass at all"? I'm guessing that you had them for more than the 300-500 hour break-in period, yes? Because during that initial period, the treble glares harshly and the bass is anemic. Afterwards, ... 
Acapella Versus Avantgarde
According to the Aaudio Imports web site, the Acapella Violon ($35K) is twice the price of the AG Duo. By that alone, wouldn't you expect considerably more from it than the AG? As Mike from Audio Federation suggests, the visual similarities betwee...

Central NJ, right? NOT Colorado. Just read your response to the 'Who R U?' thread.All the best,Howard 
Meadowlark Kestrel II vs. Soliloquy 6.2
Mike,It would seem to be your best move at first, installing the dedicated lines. And Samac's suggestion regarding the preamp is also excellent. From there, you certainly have a lot of room to move in the way of a speaker upgrade. I'd just be sure... 
Meadowlark Kestrel II vs. Soliloquy 6.2
Mike,If you like the transparency of the Klipsch, one way to take the brightness out of your system is to add bass, which is exactly what you will be doing by going to a larger, fuller range speaker. If you could try the 'Honey, I blew up the Here... 
Jena Labs Symphony vs. Valkyre IC's
Frank,Thank you for the offer. As I take off my down jacket, no, I live in Sacramento. Same state, but not so close.My good friend is there now, working at the Palm Springs Film Festival. I think he's decided that he's done living in Seattle. The ...
