| Cary 303 or Meridian 508.24? Anthonyf, There are many HDCD CD's out there although I think the format is about to croak. Check out the HDCD website: www.hdcd.com for details on the format. I used to own a Krell 300cd which had HDCD decoding and found that it sounded better th... | |
| Audio Aero Capitole vs. Audiomeca Enkianthus The Capitole improves on that weakness... although there are ways to make the Mephisto 2 more dynamic. There is a thread on Audiogon somewhere about the subject. I own the Mephisto 2 after auditioning the Capitole - having owned the Marantz SA-1, ... | |
| Power Cords for Beginners: Synergistic v. Shunyata I have found that digital source components benefit the most from aftermarket power cords and this is where MOST Shunyata products shine (just about everything except the Sidewinder). Spend a little more on your source cable and get AT LEAST a Bla... | |
| Audio Aero Capitole vs. Audiomeca Enkianthus Ray, the Enkianthus is a DAC. The Mephisto 2 and the Enkianthus share the same 32/192 chip. Both the Mephisto and Capitole are outstanding CD players (and they too share the same Anagram DAC chip) - In my view these are the ONLY CD players out the... | |
| What is the best digital cable? Jaykapur, You must have good digital equipment to hear a difference between digital cables. if you use a 800 digital cable between a 200 cd player and a 300 receiver, there will be no noticable difference between it (the 800 coax) and a 10 dollar ... | |

| What Interconnects Work Well With McIntosh? I have experience with a complete high end McIntosh system - 841,132,MC500,(2)MC162,MCD751. I tried EVERYTHING all the way up to cables which retail at over 3000 per meter. Nothing made my McIntosh gear sound better than Acoustic Zen Silver Refere... | |
| Who can fix electrocompaniet amps Ligi, Are you using the amplifier in the US? If so, shouldn't you be using a 110 volt fuse? The ONLY Electrocompaniet certified technician in the United States is Heinz. HE is the person in Florida you were referred to. His name is Heinz Preiss. ... | |

| Shunyata Python VS. Viper V2,Is there difference? Wayne2005, I am glad you like the KC. From reading your other posts, I too felt it would be a great match for your tastes and for your system. It seems that you are a rather refined listener and are very sensitive to any colorations brought about ... | |
| Shunyata Python VS. Viper V2,Is there difference? I have owned and listened to both and currently use (and prefer) the King Cobra in MY system. Grant and the folks at Shunyata seem very excited about the Python and from what I've read, recommend it above even the King Cobra. When used on the sour... | |
| Tell me if i got it wrong.. Well that puts rather a gloom over the day doesn't it?I enjoyed this thread. Admittedly, it did make my head hurt a little. The notion that our primal instincts affect our listening, "visualizing" and ultimately the appreciation of music is fascin... | |
