| Tube DAC Advice Needed Eslaudio,I just received my second TADAC this week (bought one locally and one from TAD). For the money I have not heard any CD player or DAC that comes close (IMHO). I run them in two systems with Prima Luna Dialogue IIs. They replaced my Cal Aud... | |
| Dali Helicon 800 Mk2 are stunning ? Guys - need your help. I am thinking of going from Dali 800s MK1 to MS4s. What can I expect to gain or loose?Thanks,Bud | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio break-in questions.... Hello,I just got a pair of Adagios and would like to know how you set them up (from walls, toe in, etc.)Thanks | |
| CAL Alpha DAC: Stock vs. 24/96 upgrade Yes, I tried the Mullards in both Alphas with very pleasing results. If I had 3 sets, all my Dacs would have them. The Telefunkens and Mazdas have more air in the highs but the Mullards vocals are crystal clear (most of my music is vocal and acous... | |
| CAL Alpha DAC: Stock vs. 24/96 upgrade Kevin,I have 2 "stock" Alphas and just last week purchased an upgraded Alpha on Audiogon. I did what CKOFFEND suggested above and bought an upgraded version to compare. After listening for a week I have to say that there is a difference but not a ... | |
| Dali Helicon 800. What components match with it? Zear,I use a Cal Audio Alpha as a source (nice DAC for the money) and a tube amp. I had the same results with cables. For fun I went from Audioquest Bedrock to Gibraltar (both dull top end with boomey bass), a double run of DH Lbs T-14 (clean arti... | |
| Dali Helicon 800. What components match with it? Dave,How much power are you driving the Dalis with? Do they seem efficient and easy to drive with SS amps? One local dealer swears by Mcintosh. I have only heard the combo a couple of times but it sounded very good. It's hard to judge the sound in... | |
| Dali Helicon 800. What components match with it? Jamnesta,Thanks for the feeback. "A perfect match" - I could not agree with Ben more! I can see where people would be confused on what to use to drive the 400s and 800s (and MS5s). Of the 2 local dealers selling Dali, one pushes high output Mcinto... | |
| Dali Helicon 800. What components match with it? Hello,I have owned the 400s for over a year and just bought a used pair of 800s on Audiogon this weekend. A couple of things I have noticed in 3 days listening to both. 1) the 800s are clearly better (IMHO) than the 400s. The mids on the 800s are ... | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Steakster,I second your thoughts on AZ's customer service. I can't say enough good things about Robert and his son. They are top notch and really take care of their customers. It is very refreshing to see a company (regardless of the industry) loo... | |
| Putting 2 speakers on 1 channel, issues? Swampwalker,Thanks for the input. Fortunately, the speakers will not be driven hard at all(close neighbors). They will be just for background noise while outside. Thanks,Bud | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? I'm sorry for Norm (TBG) everyone. He has an ax to grid from another thread and brought it here.Bud | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? I think Pjl2122 said it best. Synergy. I have run my Adagios (Golden Burl) with a Dared VP-845 (22wpc) and a Cayin TA-30 with a AES DJH preamp and they sing. Not just sing, but SING! It's hard to place my thumb on it. They are just balanced and in... | |
