| Esoteric SA-60 or Arcam 139 for 2CH Hi Rez Audio o hughie,I cant answer your question on sacd, I did not compare them.As far as cd goes there is no comparison the Esoteric best the Arcam in everyway. More detail,better soundstage, better bass,more musical etc.Hope that helps. | |
| Esoteric SA-60 or Arcam 139 for 2CH Hi Rez Audio o hughie,Really, truly the two players are not in the same league. The Esoteric is better built and sounds so much better. That Arcam 139 is the best one they have ever made IMHO, but it really is not anywhere near the Esoteric. I own a Arcam 135 fo... | |
| Esoteric SA-10 SA-60 Mnewman56,Yes, I have heard the MF...its not an Esoteric. Get an Esoteric! | |
| Esoteric SA-10 SA-60 Hands down the Sa-60 is better. The sound has more weight, better bass,deeper soundstage. Its a better made cdp. I have the sa-10 and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, the sa-60 is just better....and more $$$. | |
| Unidisk 1.1 vs. Arcam DV 137 or 139 Joe,I can't help you on the Linn, but I did listen to the 137 vs 139 today at my dealer's shop. The 139 stomps the 137 in both audio and video, it is not even close!!!! I liked the 139, but if video is not important to you, then that opens up all ... | |
| Cary CD 306 SACD Burn-in time & Power Cable's Charandacafe,There's nothing wrong with your pc, I have one of those also and like it. Watch the used market for the Transparent pc's, sometimes there are good deals. I would not go any lower than a Transparent Musiclink Plus pc or it will not be ... | |
| Cary CD 306 SACD Burn-in time & Power Cable's When I had my Cary I used a Shunyata Python and then went to a Transparent Super pc and then to a Transparent reference. Each move was a step up in performance. The Transparent pc's added a much blacker background and more micro detail.LOL.Mike | |
| Art Audio Carissa vs Cary SLI-80 Pehare,You're messing with a nice system, be careful. The Carissa would just be different, whether or not it would be an upgrade would be up to you. Do you like the sound of SET's?I would be a nice match. I thought about getting a Dehavilland with... | |
| Berning ZH270 vs 845 SET amp I thought I would pass this conversation along that I had the other day with a guy from Berning Company(not David). I am not using his name to protect the innocent. He made the comment, that for me to like the Berning amp I would have to like the ... | |
| Berning ZH270 vs 845 SET amp I would like to thank all of you for your responses. They are all unique and helpful in their own ways. Kris yours being very well written.My source is a Cary 306 SACD and I think it is as good as anything under $12000.00., but as anyone can read ... | |
| Berning ZH270 vs 845 SET amp So, what if I am going to use the Berning like an integrated, no preamp? With my speakers a little tightning of the bass would be fine, I just don't want to loose the mid and highs that one gets with tubes. Yes I may lean towards the warm, romanti... | |
| Berning ZH270 vs 845 SET amp It an effort to help the thread my speakers are Coincident Super E III's. 92 db, 14ohm. So any amp "should" work fine. My concern with the Berning is that people say it does not sound like tubes a littlelifeless and of course some people say the o... | |
| Ayre C 5xe Universal vs. Cary 306 SACD I would agree 100% with Robal. My experiences were exactly the same as his. I really like the Cary 306, its much more enjoyable to listen to compared to the Ayre.Mike | |
| Silverline Sonata II or III owners Bill,I do use a tube amp...only! The Model II was lite in the loafers in regards to the bass. I felt both speakers were bright. The mid range is excellent and the imagining is top notch.They just were not my cup o tea. They are easy to drive.Speak... | |
| Silverline Sonata II or III owners Bill,I have owned both and sold both, their are better speakers for the money.MHO.regardsMike |
