| Audio Aero Capitole II with no serial numbers? Golden Ears. Touche' It seems as if you have a great deal of experience and emotion regarding this issue. Perhaps you can explain how some of these "dealership rules" are fair to a consumers? For instance, if I have a local dealer who sucks I cann... | |
| Regarding a review in the Aug '02 Stereophile... I know nothing about Audience cables however I do know that certain cables jive with certain systems particularly well. This does not mean they are better for everyone or everyone would have the same "luck" in finding an inexpensive speaker wire t... | |
| Sheilded/Unsheilded Power Cords What? Not make money in the cable business... HA HA! People who have made good cables (and some not so good) have done rather well. Ya it takes marketing but take a look at Dave Elrod's business. He does ZERO marketing - he doesn't post to audio b... | |
| Woofer pumping - what gives? Man is this contagious? I think I have it too!! I just set up a table (not too well mind you).I was using a JA Michell phono stage and it wasn't marked left/right so I guessed which in/outs to connect to. It was making horrid sound as the volume i... | |
| Audio Aero Capitole II with no serial numbers? Sattothestars - I wasn't trying to "bag" on you or dealers. I hope you take my comments with a grain of salt. I am simply a bit irritated with a local dealer who told my friend that they wouldn't help him unless he purchased something. I think the... | |
| Audio Aero Capitole II with no serial numbers? Hmmmm... Sattothestars. That's interesting. I know you are an AA dealer... Regarding your statement: ANY player that comes from a non authorized dealer here,is up the creek with no paddle.Here is a little story to show how some companies and deal... | |
| Sheilded/Unsheilded Power Cords Audioengr that's outstanding! I am excited to learn that you've come out with a cable like that. I certainly wish you the greatest success with it. If when your cable comes out, you would like to put it against one of Dave Elrod's Signature cables... | |
| The best USED transport today - for under 500.00 EAD-T7000 - If you don't take my word for it, take it from the posters above. The T7000 is far superior to transports costing thousands more. No joke. That damn thing embarrassed quite a few of my high end transports and one box units. Through a K... | |
| Sheilded/Unsheilded Power Cords Sean - as usual, right on the money! I especially like what you said about thinking outside the box. Those of us who have built AC power cords realize that it is quite difficult to make sonic improvements beyond a certain level - which isn't all t... | |
| Best CD sound from a DVD player Thedautch - ya.. I think the DV8300 uses the CS4392 DAC vs. the CS4397 (SA-1). However, I do not know what DAC Marantz uses in the SA14 - it might be the CS4392.The 8300 is definately a tier two product in the Marantz linup but then again, people ... | |
| Best CD sound from a DVD player Maybe we all should be looking at the Marantz DV8300 which is the latest "one box wonder". I know... its ugly but look anyway!!! This thing plays SACD, SACD MultiChannel, CD, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, MP3, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW and video CD. Damn... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Hshapiro: my 1m Kondo KSL is a doubled version of AN-Vz. AN-Vz is made of "four wires" and KSL-LP is eight. Similarly, Nordost Valhalla interconnects are rumored to be a double run of Quattro Fil. Even though the Kondo stuff is expensive, my cable... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck WOW... Gone a few days and look at the action! Ah.. it looks as if most of you have started to realize something...Albertporter! Outstanding response on 09-15-02! That made my day. :) Pure class and well written indeed. Touche' | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Tonight I listened to the Syrah's phono stage for the first time - on a friends system. Amazing. Absolutely amazing.I just emailed Mick to find out about getting a pre with a phono stage - and how long it will take! I have got to have that sound!!... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Hshpiro - regarding the VD cables. Long story. In order to explain I have to first say that I tried countless cables in my system before settling on Audio Note Kondo KSL-LP (which is the newer doubled version of the old Kondo AN-Vz between my sour... |
