| mcintosh vs jeff rowland The Mac isn't a fully balanced design, I'd expect them to either be equal or RCA to be better. | |
| mcintosh vs jeff rowland Jprice, how are you feeling about the MA7000 these days, are you still missing the Rowland? | |
| mcintosh vs jeff rowland The obvious thing is matching your speakers with the right amp. I would expect both the MA7000 and the Continuum 500 to be excellent units, I'd love to experiement myself.I have owned two Concentra II's. The first I had I loved and always regrette... | |
| WAV vs. AIFF The more difficult pursuit is to preserve the clock information. This is an interesting (and excellent) statement and also something one of the magazines touched on awhile back, I think Stereophile, who did a great article on this, I wish I could ... | |
| Magico Mini II vs. Magico V2 comparison If you have heard the V2's in your room and your system and were very pleased, I'd call it good and place the order. As others have stated, system matching is important and if you know you have a match, no need to risk any other expense and hassle. | |
| WAV vs. AIFF I am convinced and have been for about 10 years now that we can hear things which we have not yet quantified, therefor no construct exists to model or measure these properties. Whether right or wrong, I have always felt the same way on that....whe... | |
| WAV vs. AIFF It absolutely is compressed (think about it, if it were not, it would be the same size as the original) BUT..every bit which is removed is replaced when it is played back unlike lossy compression inwhich files never return to the original state an... | |
| WAV vs. AIFF I have been told that Apple Lossless sounds just like uncompressed files (even one of the so-called golden stereophile guys claimed this a few years back). I believe the people making the claim believe that, it may be the limitation of their syste... | |
| Nautilus & S series There are a number of threads on this in the archives if you want to search.It has been some time since I was "up" on the differences but let me make one clarification. The new models have dropped the "N" from the name, where the old model was the... | |
| Wadia 170i transport experience? It seems like wadia got a solution for 170i 's jitter issue now. It may be worth a try again once the 121 DAC is available.There are a myriad of DACs that reclock now that workexcellent with it. | |
| Upgrading from Wilson Sophia 2's? No, I don't think I missed the point, but it doesn't really matter. BTW, don't criticize others for being critical when your replies are laced with criticism. If I have taken anything out of context feel free to enlighten me. Nobody is putting any... | |
| SS integrated amp to drive Wilson audio sophia/WP7 Audiofeil - I didn't realize Pass had come out with the INT-30A. So what are your thoughts of it compared to the INT-150, besides the obvious power difference? | |
| Upgrading from Wilson Sophia 2's? Yes, there is so much more "mentally stable adult conversation" to the words, "Maggie 3.6R's and 20.1's...all the rest pale in comparison."To be as candid as I am with my feelings and findings enevitably gives gasoline for those who would rather t... | |
| Upgrading from Wilson Sophia 2's? I don't always agree with Audiofeil, not that everyone agrees with me, but he said what I would have liked. It is great your are pleased with what you have Dave but your posts are so predictable and over the top in recommending what you have and b... |
