| Built your own speakers ? "Thorty"...Sorry to hear that all that effort was wasted. Doesn't discourage me the least bit, though, and I'm not just being stubborn. Your experience is extremely contrary to what the vast majority of speaker hobbyists experience. I've known sev... | |
| Super Audio CD Bluesman, yes, I agree. The new version of my CD player upsamples to 700 kHz/24 bit..............Bullshagger, I'm not going to get personal with you. And really, you are completely wrong about the SACD to CD comparison of the mid 80's. There's zer... | |
| Anyone Heard the new Powersnakes? No, and they aren't even listed on the Shunyata website yet. Reckon why? | |
| Classe or Krell Sell the Transparent cables, and replace with used MIT, and get a used Krell FPB 300 (not the new "c"). Use some of the savings for a dedicated room and ASC traps. Invest what's left over in stocks or mutual funds...or booz and hookers, heh heh. | |
| Can speaker cables damage amplifiers? By who, a dealer who happens not to carry MIT cables? Hmmmm....I have a Krell amplifier, and gurantee that MIT cables have caused zero damage to it. Rather, they have made it finally perform to its full potential, to the point where I feel genuine... | |
| Is SACD really this lousy? Albert, I wonder if this guy is even worth the effort? He sure seems like an angry personality, feeling the need to bash important musicians and the like. Must be sour grapes on his part. One other observation, he does love number sequences, heh heh. | |
| speaker specs & room matching IMHO, that describes whether the wave will be allowed to "travel", or whether it will be perceived as "pressure". That has nothing to do with the room's deep bass extension possiblities, however. I easily perceive a 15 Hz test tone as "pressure" w... | |
| The best CD player with volume control I've always said that, and agree with you. Analog does not sound "warm" at all, and whenever somebody has said that to me, I know they don't know what they're talking about. I too am at peace, and I enjoy both CD and vinyl very much, and wonder wh... | |
| Is SACD really this lousy? And I've heard Britney say she hasn't had surgery, but I'd really need to see her sans top to decide for sure. They can be quite perky and nice when they're short on years, as some of us might now...And gee, I hate her "music". That fad certainly ... | |
| Super Audio CD Karate, hmm? I could still give you a pretty good punch, before you got any good moves carried through, perhaps...heh heh heh. The prop plane to jet plane is a funny analogy, but not a very good one (some propellors are even driven by jet engines.... | |
| Is SACD really this lousy? Craig, your observations may or may not be entirely accurate, but I wonder if you are predisposed to assume that Stereophile's article would have little or no validity in the first place?.......David, please, I'm still evaluating the tube amp. I l... | |
| Best websites for purchasing vinyl ? Ebay, CDnow, Elusive Disc, Music Direct, Red Trumpet Music, Audiogon. | |
| Classical Audiophiles Rejoice! Megasam, I should ask you the same question, since your system and music collection likely costs at lest 5 times what mine costs. Yes, I have another expensive hobby (for me, anyway). I like to ride dirtbikes and ATV's. I'm not rich like most of y... | |
| Can speaker cables damage amplifiers? Your experience with the Goertz is identical to my experience with it, with my Krell. I suspect you would love MIT cables. They kill the Cardas Neutral Reference cables I've been trying for a while. | |
| Super Audio CD And it is also true that you haven't heard the CD player that I have. |
