Any Opinion on DCC/MoFi CD Quality? Problem is not with MoFi or DCC but rather with the masters quality, or in this case lack of quality. The original recordings of these tended to be 'dreck' and therefore do not transform into magic recordings. I own many MoFi remasters but of jazz... | |
Best Acoustically Untreated Room You Have Heard? My old home with cathedral ceiling opening up from wall where speakers were placed. Very few direct refecting wall with plenty of carpet. Lively, but not echoing. | |
Majik/Genki vs Classik I've owned the Classik and loved it. Not reference, but very good. The Genki player is superior, however the Majik I found to be very thin sounding. I'd vote the Classik overall. | |
Best powered mini monitors w/out sub Acoustic Energy AEGOS sub/sat system for $400. | |
Aerius i and VTL IT 85 I've run these speaker with the VTL Tiny Triodes and they loved them. This is a very bright speaker and the VTL gear mellows them. | |
Speaker recommendation for Rega Mira Going with the older Totem Sttaf. | |
Blood ,Sweat, & Tears Mobile Fidelity version is quite good. | |
Speakers to match this system.... Axiom M22Ti. It's fun to embarrass much more expensive speakers. Get the black as Boston cherry looks weak. Buy through Audio Shoppe Ottawa, Canada and ask for Mark. Best deal. | |
How good are Axiom loudspeakers These are seriously contenders. I have turned many onto these and run a pair of the M3Ti myself. They are much smoother, detailed, less bright and dynamic than the Titans which I've also owned. They will reveal inferior equipment on the front end.... | |
I am looking for an FM antenna amplifier The Reflect antenna from ccrane.com is not an amplifier, but just a very good dipole, the best I've used. | |
I need a phono preamp and I'm leaning toward Krell Lean the other way. | |
Does anyone have feedback on the TERK Pro antenena TERK is garbage. MD whip is very good omnidirectionally and the $30 FM Reflect from ccrane.com will beat it for unidirectional reception. Good luck. | |
Speakers to match Audio Refinement Complete? Coincident Triumph UHS. | |
FM Tuner Repairs???? Whatjd,I trust all repairs to Doug Siegel at Audio Specialties in Portland, OR at 503 257 3206. He also runs a used only shop so has lots of experience putting older equipment together. Good luck. | |
When is the golden age of high-end audio? The 'component' you seek is the late 70s Luxman integrated you talked your friend into buying which was the perfect upgrade to his Pioneer receiver. You then sat around and rediscovered some of his CDs and vinyl together. The Spica 50s you modifie... |
