| MIT or MITH? Soupcon and Tm12 are so smug. I guess I must not be listening with my ears, then. Nordost has a far higher profit margin than MIT... | |
| MIT or MITH? Definitely not a "scam", Dragan. There are so many for sale, because so many people have them, and are likely upgrading (or, in the case of the T series, are being replaced by a more expensive T series). I've told you at least a hundred times why ... | |
| Best speaker small/large for Belcanto 40 I recently bought a Rogue Model 88 tube amp, and it actually has enough power for my small Maggie MMG's. They're only $500 factory direct, with a 60 day trial period. You'll never believe these only costed $500. Four years after I bought mine, I s... | |
| Speakers : Who uses What ? If you want to know about drivers, get the Solen catalog. It's more info than you need, though, and doesn't tell who uses what. They all claim that they either "rebuild", or have them "custom manufactured", though. Sometimes they do. After a while... | |
| How good do SACD players play normal CDS Ok, no it doesn't, and you're wrong as all heck, and don't know what you're talking about, boner. I'm no dealer, I can just hear better than everybody else, apparently..and know how to put a cohesive system together. It takes patience, not angst o... | |
| Need a good inexpensive stereo pre! Audio Alchemy DLC, with No. 3 power supply. Use a very good power cord and line conditioner, and you won't want anything else, unless 2 or 3 thousand is pocket change to you. | |
| Do Silver Cables Hurt Bass? Not all silver cables are the same gauge, or use the same conductors, geometry, or purity of silver. As a general rule, no, they don't hurt the bass. IMO, as a general rule, they hurt the MIDRANGE. I'm trying Wireworld, Siltech, Purenote, Silversm... | |
| How good do SACD players play normal CDS That's too much stuff, isn't it? Why do you need so much? And, how could you possibly listen to it all? I'm not joking about the WAMMs either...had to sell two of my Gulfstream G5 jets, just for the downpayment...cheers. | |
| How good do SACD players play normal CDS I'm totally over whatever you think I had. I have ten pair of Wilson Wamms, myself, in a hanging array. | |
| ROGUE AUDIO 88 AMP None of my speakers have bi-wire connection, and it's not something that interests me too much for my speaker projects. I believe in passive crossover networks, at least the ones that aren't built to a price point. I'm with most of the big time re... | |
| How good do SACD players play normal CDS Yes, by all means, don't listen when I recommend the CD50. My ears have lost so much blood, that I need a transfusion every night...Phill, I defer to your expertise and superior hearing. By the way, do your speakers have working woofers, and/or mi... | |
| Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge It's not that I dislike Wadia, I like the company. They are superb in most respects, as many of you know. | |
| Feelings on Napster? Oh, I only have a 56k also, you just have to do it 24 hours a day that way. Not good, and what I hate is when you get halfway thru a download, and the host suddenly decides to log off...what a pain. I need to go to a place with T-1 connection some... | |
| Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge Someone deleted the whole Resolution Audio thread? That's a shame... | |
| Feelings on Napster? Yes, my system isn't up to the very best standards either, and I can't afford the really expensive stuff. I'm not much of a tweak freak, and my listening rooms aren't in service to decor considerations, either. Those will always be compromised IMO... |
