What the heck is Resolution Audio Glad to hear that there are so many sensible people out there in philedom. | |
Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge I've not analized a lot of them, or taken them apart. I only know that you should look at the analog line level output section seriously, and that a compromised one usually bespeaks a philosophy based on compromise. | |
Speaker Cable Recommendation I did burn mine in, and I did return them, because the more affordable MIT Terminator 2 was worlds better in every way. | |
Magnan Signature ics - The Ultimate I've not heard them, but it seems like they'd be dynamically laid back, being such high resistance cables. Are they not? I did try the Signature power cord, and it was. | |
WHICH SPEAKERS? Somehow, I doubt that very much. I tell you what, get a dealer in my area to carry them, and I'll give them a listen. And anyway, the whole is never greater than the sum of its parts. I like to know how speakers work, and even design some myself. ... | |
Why is everyone selling thier Powersnake They all want to follow what the next guy does, it seems to me. I don't think the new versions could be that much better than the old, and think the old were overrated. I still have a Black Mamba on loan, but a cord from another manufacturer is se... | |
Sensitive ears to speakers. Help!!! Tacs, I too am a fan of vinyl. I still think good soft domes are better than the best hard domes, though. | |
Amps for Dynaudio Confidence 5s? Agree about the midrange dome, I'm designing speakers that use them. | |
WHICH SPEAKERS? Dolphin, I have too many speakers already, and don't feel this design would better any of them in overall performance, based on what I've learned about them...no offense. BTW, whenever I hear "custom designed", to me it means very little. I hear i... | |
Sensitive ears to speakers. Help!!! Ekmaia, yes, I'm referring to the D21/2 tweeters. I feel that they're better than the Esotec, except maybe in the very bottom of their range. The Esotar has been a little too aggressively metallic sounding, in my experience. It is extremely dynami... | |
BEST HEAVY METAL BAND I like the babes in the Kid Rock videos. | |
Amps for Dynaudio Confidence 5s? Barboum, have we been here before? Krell should not be overlooked. Mine works very well with my speakers (use Dynaudio drivers), and MIT cabling....anyway, unless you only like Canadian amps. | |
WHICH SPEAKERS? Dolphin, BTW, what drivers do they use? | |
What the heck is Resolution Audio P_mmk, as I said, I still don't like the implication. Jeff Kalt at Resolution is just the BEEESSST digital guy out there, and neither he nor his colleagues would EVER resort to such foolishness. FOR ONE THING, THEY DON'T NEED TO. I hear they are h... | |
Sensitive ears to speakers. Help!!! Regarding tweeters, I feel like I'm hearing a dome attached to a coil, when I hear metal dome tweeters, even the best ones (and especially the Focal ones). However, with the best soft domes, if you can ever hear a characteristic, it just seems to ... |
