| Mye Speaker Stand type of fill material There is another damping material called "Black Gold" made by Lovan. It's not too expensive, maybe you want to give that a try?? | |
| B&W 802 N vs. D That's right, Missioncoonery, we are done with this!Like you wrote before "we agree to disagree".BTW, what the heck are you doing in this thread?? This forum is a DISCUSSION forum where we discuss topics including those that do not align w/ your l... | |

| B&W 802 N vs. D 07-20-09: MissioncooneryBombaywalla ..We all know that the 802 needs power,old old news,,.....you are quite the antogonist, Missioncoonery, aren't you?? on the prowl looking for a fight....Ok, so you know that B&W speakers like power. So, whic... | |
| B&W 802 N vs. D 07-22-09: DiwBombaywalla:Do you think my Theta Dreadnaught II would be sufficient to cope with the issues you mention, or would it be more like the Classe in design?The truth of the matter, Diw, is that I don't know as I have never heard a Dreadna... | |
| Pass Amps Class A operation 07-21-09: SpatineThe power to SPL calculation is pretty much aligned with engineering understanding. Yet reality does not seem to support this kind of calculation. For example if we can all agree that 2W is all needed to produce 78 dB at 3m away, ... | |
| Pass Amps Class A operation I was thinking almost exactly along the same lines at Elevick. Continuing on those lines then:I'd like to make a few mods to the values posted by Elevick - you need to reduce the SPL at the listening chair by atleast 9dB.The listening chair is not... | |
| B&W 802 N vs. D Look guys, all of you need to fix your egotistical attitudes & start behaving like civilized men. And, also understand that this is a DISCUSSION & not a brain-washing session where you need to convince one or more men that brand XYZ is bet... | |
| Has anyone listen to the new wadia 381 05-30-09: Chris10anI have not heard it - yet. But the 381 is almost the same as a Red Book 581se, and this machine is _much_ better than the 861 model.Can you substantiate your opinion with some evidence? Merely making an open-ended statement like... | |
| Wadia 170i transport experience? IMO if you use one with a DAC that reclocks the signal, it'll perform extreemly well.Jab, this seems to be the key for the i170 unit unfortunately. Perhaps a $400 unit could have done better by using a better receiver rather the one they actually ... | |
| Solid State amp for Europas Besides the recommendations made by other members above, I would also recommend a vintage Yamaha integrated amplifier like the CA-2010, CA-1010 or CA-1000. From my personal experience, these are excellent amps & since the Europas are a benign ... | |
| Wadia 170i transport experience? ..... with strong reclocking capacity ......DaveDcstep Ach, the magic words (IMHO) pertaining to the Wadia i170!!! Jab, essential details as the one quoted above (& why they matter for the i170) were discussued in that thread whose link I prov... | |
| Berning ZH-270 Replacement 06-24-09: Peter_sI must digress, and I think I'll get alot of flack for this, but wrt to the ZH-270, I don't see what all the hubbub is (bub). I had one about 7 years ago, with the NOS tubes, and I felt that it sounded way too forward and aggressi... | |
| Wadia 170i transport experience? 06-24-09: JabBombaywalla,What type of link did you send us to? The question was a general one on how this player performs, not on what type of mods help the unit. I do not think a Nak. person is into mods. I am also looking at the Wadia and Ejlif ... | |
