Building Watt/puppy clone And the only difficult thing about sub/sat mating (besides if the sub has no remote control) is if you have somebody like a wife telling you where things need to be put in your listening room. I don't have that problem. If you don't have a dedicat... | |
R 2 D 4 I have Live at Leeds on half speed aluminum (heh heh). I'll probably get both of those, as you suggest, Musikdok. My favorite Fremer saying is "lunching a stylus". I've never done it, but UPS did it for me once. | |
Sunfire Signature VS. B&W ASW series We all know the Sunfire gets boomy when going too high in frequency, and isn't all that fast in absolute terms. It's not servo feedback controlled, so it's an impossibility to be anything other than what it is. My money is on the Velodyne HGS-15, ... | |
Classe or Bryston? I agree with Ramstl. I love Stereophile, but to have blind faith in their reccomendations is a pathetic practice indeed. I don't like Southpark, it's annoying. I like Seinfeld, The Simpsons, and Futurama in that order. My favorite comedy is "There... | |
CD vs. SACD vs. DVD-Audio vs Vinyl vs... Gerry, do you offer any imperical and credible evidence that Armor All accelorates the aging of the rubber compound in cantliver suspensions? And not just what somebody told you... | |
Best used Amp under $2000 for CD-50 Muser, have you compared any of those Muse amps directly with the Krell KAV-250a in the same system context? I mean, D'Agostino believes 2 channel is dead, and I don't agree with him about that either (hardly anybody in the world does). He still k... | |
24 bit 96khz. whats the deal? It's a line level analog signal when sent to your amp (unless it's a digital amp, or has the DAC built in like the Wadia PowerDAC). A CD has nothing to do with 24/96, unless there is upsampling before the DAC (many feel that a 24/96 DAC in general... | |
24 bit 96khz. whats the deal? Good to hear that Muse finally got a website. Should be interesting. | |
Opinions Needed!! Meniscus Audio has some interesting sub amps. I'm building speakers myself. Try to ignore the jaded among us, who've been to all the shows, seen it all, done it all. If you listen to them too much, it'll stifle your creativity. I think designing s... | |
R 2 D 4 David, wasn't an ass whoopin. Just a reminder to excercise restraint. Yes, "The Battle of Evermore" is an awesome song. "I hear, the horses' thunder, down in the valley below. I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon, waiting for the east winds' blow..." | |
The ultimate system? Cost no object Nothing wrong with dreaming, never said there was. I love Science Fiction, for example. It's just more improtant to get the most out of what audio equipment you own, than dreaming about what some dream system might be like if you owned it. Rigidly... | |
Bel Canto DAC-1 I think it may be the best value DAC out there (for CD, or DVD audio discs), but I've not heard the Perpetual Technologies one. The analog section is very likely to be superior with the Bel Canto. My advice is to audition the Bel Canto, Perpetual,... | |
CD vs. SACD vs. DVD-Audio vs Vinyl vs... That's a very tough call, and would vary with the vinyl formulation. Maybe 10 or 15 times with a good hard vinyl surface, maybe 3 to 8 times with a soft one. It's almost imperceptable, so maybe the treble range above 15kHz loses about .2 dB with e... | |
Best used Solid State Amp $1500.00 Kacz, get a coffee enema. (Just said that cause Kacz made me.) I don't think the Aleph-3 is a bad amp, and if you prefer what it does right, over what the KAV-250a does right, then it's probably a better match for your system. | |
List or discuss your favorite music OK, thanks. I'll check it out. |
