| Recommend CD Player with Volume Control Remember this, Shelton, if it were true that none of us could hear similar things from the same equipment/system/room, then there would be no point in having this forum...remember that, and don't forget it, keep it in your memory... | |
| good xlr cable Dk, you're full of bull, and you know it dude!! | |
| Recommend CD Player with Volume Control Ryan, I've not tried the 860x in my home, no. It still rolls off the top octave by 3 dB, though. Anyway, I gurantee the CD50 is better than the 830, by far. Bring your 860 by anytime, when you're in my part of the country. You know what, yes, I ab... | |
| Recommend CD Player with Volume Control What preamp did you use with the Rotel, and did you use one with the CD50? I use no preamp with mine, and have found none of the aspects you name. How long was this CD50 left on in each instance, by the way? It needs a few days of being on, before... | |
| good xlr cable I have a Krell amp, and the MIT 330 Shotgun Proline is extremely good. I welcome all naysayers to come visit my system. | |
| Recommend CD Player with Volume Control I'm not bent out of shape, just challenged him to be specific...read what I said. Defending it like it was my wife? Get over yourself, dude. | |
| CD Copies...why do they sound worse? My expereince is that they are always worse. | |
| Recommend CD Player with Volume Control What specifically did you not like about the CD50, Ryan? "Just didn't like it" just doesn't cut it. I just don't like a lot of things, but I need to be more specific, or else saying it has no relevance. Perhaps you didn't like that it showed that ... | |

| Feelings on Napster? Also, it's nice to be able to get that stuff that can't be bought in stores (or anywhere), if you catch my drift. Sure, the sonic quality of those is compromised, but so what? I'm a music lover, where my favorite music is concerned (the "audiophil... | |
| Feelings on Napster? Not all of them sound the same, some are pretty close to CD. The transfer rate doesn't tell the whole story, either. Some at 128 sound superior to a 256, it's just a matter of how well the original was captured. For instance, if a CD was copied at... | |
| Power cords Essence -Synerg-Ensemble A Synergistic Reference has beaten everything for me, for either of my amps (KAV-250a, or Rogue 88). The Essence was only marginally better than the Pro Flo, so if you like the sound of the Essence, I'd save my money and get the Pro Flo. I haven't... | |
| Cartridge suggestions And pick a Porsche---Nuff said... | |
| Balanced Cables/Terminations Question This belongs in the technical section, IMHO. | |
| Cartridge suggestions If this were me, I would save until I bought a Basis 2000, and then skip the Glider altogether. I would look for a used Basis, with Graham arm (ok, this is me next year, perhaps). I have the Lo4 with my HW19jr now, and the improvement over the Gli... |
