| Theta Compli vs Wadia I have a Compli myself, but would not have chosen Compli if I didn't need a dvd player. I have added separate music machine and now use Compli only for movie or multichannel sacd (which I really don't care much about...)Compli is good as transport... | |
| Best tube amp for Wilson Watt/Puppy I think Wilson is voiced and optimized for Audio Research. | |
| ModWright Transporter I prefer to use a good preamp. I have the latest Burmester 011 pre. I also have the latest Burmester 001 CD. I guess the Burmester 001 CD benefits from that (synergy), but the Modwright player is very very close in quality when I use the built in ... | |
| ModWright Transporter I have had my unit for a couple of weeks. It is much better than my previous Cary 306 SACD (!), and very very close to my Burmester 001. If I run digital out from the Modwright and uses the Burmester 001 as DAC I am not able to tell the difference... | |
| Comparison Cary 306, Wadia 581, EMM Labs CDSA Amfibius,my Accuphase DP-700 is quite new and not burned in yet. Out of the box it is sounding amazing so I don't know what it really is capable of yet. But I wouldn't worry about dynamics and PRaT for this player. It seems to be there, nothing le... | |
| Comparison Cary 306, Wadia 581, EMM Labs CDSA I have received my Accuphase DP-700 and it has outperformed my previos player, a Cary 306 SACD (not the latest Pro version), so it is almost embarrassing... The DP-700 cost twice as much, but I think it is worth it. It is much better than the Cary... | |
| CARY SLP 05 Owners..Seperate or Not I have had the slp05. I couldn't tell the difference. | |
| Burmester 069 I heard it recently in an all Burmester setup and we had the opportunity to compare it to the 001. The setup was 069/001 cd, 011 pre, 2x911 monos, B100 speakers. All cabling was Nordost Odin.The 069 sounded like a Burmester CD player, just better!... | |
| High quality processors with HDMI 1.3 Krell S-1000 | |
| CDP with volume and digital input...Which one? I would have picked the Wadia 581i, but if Burmester 001 was on the list I would have picked the latter... | |
| CD Players with digital "in" capabilities Burmester cd players. The Topline player, 001, also has AES/EBU input. | |
| Krell Showcase or Theta Intrepid amp ? Friz1313,I was using to channels on the Intrepid biamping my Aerial CC5, that is 2 x 125 watts alone for one speaker. I used two more channels for a pair of SR-3 surround speakers. I never used the Intrepid for the main channels.Before I purchased... | |
| Accuphase DG38 Do a search for "DG-38" under Discussions and you'll find some threads. I guess you probably know that DG-38 is discontinued and replaced by DG-48... | |
| Krell Showcase or Theta Intrepid amp ? I have had the Theta Intrepid amp. It is not in the same league as other amps from Theta. In my opinion it is slow, lacks dynamics and power and is not very transparent or resolved. Finally, I replaced my Intrepid with a Cary Cinema 5 and was shoc... | |
| Wilson Maxx2 or Aerial 20T Fm540i,I also have Aerial 20t's and a pair of SW-12's. I have the crossover set to 40 Hz.I hope you use the speaker level input (DIN plug). The sound improved a lot in my system when I did this and connected them up directly to my amps instead of ... |
