| What are your thoughts on the Dragon tape deck? I have not owned the Dragon, but I have owned other top Nak's, like the ZX-7 and 9, CR-7A and 680. Contrary to Elgordo's comments, as it appears he hasn't owned one, you would quite amazed at its performance. With a good tape, you would be hard pr... | |
| Best SACD/CD Player up to 3000 street price? I suppose we will have to chalk it up to different results in different systems; I am confident in what I heard, not just for my seemingly endless comparison, but also from having a friend listen in as well; he has an excellent ear and when trying... | |
| Best SACD/CD Player up to 3000 street price? Chuck, I have owned both the Meridian 508.24 and the SCD-1 and had them in my system at the same time for a couple weeks, in redbook playback, the Meridian will compete with the SCD-1, contrary to your comments. | |
| Senior Audiophiles - Audiophile since the 60-70's? I thank all the posters so far, and hope there are more in this category; I read your responses with great interest, twice.One pattern rings true throughout these posts, most believe music was “better”, for the most part, before the 1980’s. If I t... | |
| Tenor amps..."to pre or not to pre" How much is the M5 and does it have remote? | |
| SACD- my intial thoughts.... Maybe I am a minority, but I am not dissatisfied with CD; we all have a few wonderfully recorded CD’s, if we could just get the industry to up their standards on recording as some already do, this would make me happy. I have said many times that I... | |
| Electrocompaniet EW-75 question Forget that, I just checked "your system". Check the connections. | |
| Electrocompaniet EW-75 question Do you have skimpy speaker wire? Many years ago, on my first "system", I had this problem and solved it with a better guage of wire. (Granted, it was very skimpy wire!) | |
| Levinson owners, what cables are u using? Acoustic Zen Reference Matrix. | |
| I'm taking votes Instead of giving my vote for one or the other, I somewhat question the CD-12; I do not doubt it's capabilities nor the enjoyment it could bring, but I wonder if some other CD players that have been released over the last year or so do not meet or... | |
| Bob Bundus was wrong. $10000 Yen, right? | |
| Best integrated ever made ? Sokos, what is your e-mail address, or send me an e-mail I can reply back to. | |
| Amps get all the thunder, what about preamps? Three votes for CAT preamp's, impressive, where do these stand in comparison to the "Deal of the Century" Supratek? Do either of these have remote? | |
| Separates vs. Integrated Forgive my spelling above! A spell checker on Audiogon would be nice. | |
| Separates vs. Integrated Maybe both Clueless. Again, in the past, integrated amps were "entry level", the targeted market not needing that much power. From engineering, the integrated being one box, I would think it to be harder to engineer the big power in a small space.... |
