| Cary 303-300 This is an excellent unit. We are a dealer, and have a 303/300 on display playing direct through a Rocket88. At first, the tubed output was anemic and thin, but over time it has opened up dramatically, and played through that great tube amp. As fa... | |
| rotel 1066 vs 1068 IMO, the 1068 is the better performer all round. I have a RMB 1075 right now but am using a Harman Kardon AVR 430 as my pre-pro, which images horribly and unstably, and simply is NOT anywhere in the same ballpark. It was cheap, and I'm a student, ... | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? 1) 1998 Land Rover Discovery LSE, purchased used, and lifted and armored for off-road use. I hate the gas mileage and am about to sell it2) Very soon, a new Honda Element. THeyre so ugly theyre cute, and are amazingly versatile3) God. Ferrari Enzo... | |
| DAC's for the money? OK. The other DAC's listed are, as stated, a hair out of my price range. I will definately consider the Glass FO cable, as it is reasonably priced. I'm very interested in the modification process, what is involved and what are the costs associate... | |
| DAC's for the money? Thanks guys!Steve N: Where and how and exactly what should I do to get my player modded as described? I assume you mean the Pioneer. I have also heard great things about the Birdland, but right now it's just a few hairs above my price range.I do t... | |
| Best DVD player for the money? The optical outputs are crap anyway. Get soemthing with coax! If ya want a good player for your price range, I would tend to agree with my associates here - Toshiba, Denon, Pioneer Elite (used) are all good choices for you. I would suggest that if... | |
| Best DVD player for the money? Not sure what ya want to blow on a player, but when I was searching for a great performing DVD player, with the extra added benefit of playing SACD's and DVD-A's (though not spectacular, much better than the CIrcuit CIty equivalent,) I ran across ... | |
| Rotel RMB vs. Sunfire Cinema Grand IN reference to the THeta - I want nothing more than a THeta system. I have auditioned the whole lot, from the Miles and DaViD players, the Gen VIII DAC, the Casablanca Pre/Pro, and the Dreadnaught I and Citadel Monoblocks. If any of the Theta amp... | |

| Rotel RMB vs. Sunfire Cinema Grand Sean - From what I've heard, I have absolutely no doubt that, due to the voltage & current source connections on the Sunfires, they are smoother than the Rotels. My audition this evening of the Rotel RMB 1075, driving B&W 704s, yielded a ... | |
| Rotel RMB vs. Sunfire Cinema Grand WEll, My cable selection has always tended to the warmer/darker side of things, as has my selection of the particular Infinities I purchased. I am using speaker cables from MIT and Transparent, with great results, and if the Rotel happens to be a ... | |
| So, again, a question concerning amps. Well.. Been away from my computer all weekend. I apologize. Well, as far as the "peerless performance," that is, of course, relative! I just want the best I can find for the cash. I know the h/k is pretty weak as far as processing goes, but she ... | |
| So, again, a question concerning amps. I have been hearing and reading good things about McCormack and Bryston. I have also looked into Acurus amps as well. As I am relatively inexperienced, how much of a difference would say, that particular McCormack make over my little Mistubishi 75... | |
| Sunfire amps Hi guys, I'm currently in the process of shopping for a big-ass solid state amp, preferably for five channels. I have Infinity Kappa 600s front L/R, Kappa 400s rear L/R, and an older Infinity Entra Center. THe center is soon going to be replaced ... | |
| Any suggestions for in-wall cabling? That seems a fair assesment. Thanks. I do think that the "good, better, best" scenario is also quite relative - and usually quite a personal thing. Most folks here know more that I and have far more experience...thus my asking about what I can do ... |
