| Active Vs. Passive There is no mistaking the sound and dynamics of a properly executed active speaker.All passive speakers I have ever heard sound compressed in comparison. | |
| Should i keep my N802 or upgrade to N803D I had both the 803D and 802D and neither one was that good. However the new Diamond series is MUCH MUCH better.If I were you I would keep your speakers and save for the latest series. In my opinion your speakers are better than the D series. | |
| It's the Sony XA5400ES the best CDP under 4k You simply spent way too much effort trying to appear intelligent.You would have made a lousy teacher. You could have just said; "IN MY SUBJECTIVE OPINION". Now wasn't that much easier and everybody(and I do mean everybody) understood it. Besides,... | |
| Oh no, not B&W again I have the 800 Diamond,not the 802 diamond.I previously owned the 802D. In comparison the 800 diamond sounds much more life like, as though a veil has been lifted. It sounds significantly faster with deep,tight, controlled bass.The sound stage is ... | |
| Oh no, not B&W again I previously had the bryston 4b sst. It drove the 800 diamond without a problem.Infact it seemed to drive the 800 diamond much easier than the 802D.Then again I think the 802D was just a sluggish speaker no matter what you did with it.They sounded... | |
| It's the Sony XA5400ES the best CDP under 4k Right now my setup consists of a Sony xa5400es , bryston bp26 preamp and a pair of bryston 7bsst2 driving the latest B&W 800 diamonds. The sound is simply spectacular. I don't know if the Sony is the best under 4 grand but I know at a msrp of ... | |
| Wilson Audio paint problems Did Wilson really put you in touch with a cable manufacture company? That is simply above and beyond. | |
| Emm Labs CDSA 'X' upgrade I would assume they plan to re-release this player with the new upgrade. | |
| Emm Labs CDSA 'X' upgrade So, does the latest emm cdsa already hav this or is it a separate upgrade? | |
| Choosing between ATC or Emerald Physics You stated "the system sounds very,very good". So why in the world would you change anything? This simply doesn't make any sense. | |
| Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000 I believe the sound steadily improved with my unit for the first 200-300 hours but who knows, perhaps it is all in my head.I just know I like it even better now than initially. | |
| Wilson Sasha or the new B&W 800 Diamond Thank you for your thoughtful response. I have heard a lot of good things about those Kef's as well. | |
| Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000 I think it all depends on the rest of the system. The only thing I know for sure is at a mrsp of $1500 the Sony is truly amazing in my system and I have no plans to change it anytime soon.It replaced an Esoteric X-03 se . | |
| Wilson Sasha or the new B&W 800 Diamond Were these the latest 800 diamonds which only recently became available or the 800D ? I ask cause if you heard them " in a number of systems" it leads me to believe they were the old 800D. I was never overly impressed by the old D series . | |
| B&W 800 series diamond I heard the 805D which impressed the hell out of me but they didn't have the big boys( and still don't). Anyone hear the new 802Di or 800Di? What are your thoughts? |
