Review: Great Northern Sound Co. Wadia 860 CD Player
I think you guys should ask Steve what he thinks of the Master series power cables from Virtual Dynamics.I keep trying to convince these dedicated Wadia owners to at least try them. I have a Revelation power cord that is totally off the wall with ... 
Wadia 16/16i
You should talk to Steve Huntely at Gnsc,the "i" upgrade improved the sonics and resolution of the 16.I have a 15i and a friend with a 16i who just had Steve install the se platter.We are amazed at the resolution and dynamics these units are capab... 
Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10
I think you maybe right on the bass control but the Sim would take the cake in detail and resolution.All the reviews by the press indicate that this is the most natural sounding amp.I know that these amps have been compared to 20 to 30,000 dollar ... 
Wadia 861 vs. 861 SE
Wow ,I am always amazed at how the question seems to get lost in the wording!Dbk maybe you could explain how Emm labs pertains to this thread?? 
Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10
I think that an amp that offers no feedback is far more accurate than one that doesn't. If your are seeking a very neutral amp that has the front end to support it, then I would strongly consider the Sim W-10's. I have heard that the Parasound is ... 
Wadia 861 vs. 861 SE
Well now that you mentioned Gnsc upgrades offer a true taste of what a Wadia can do.Both units that I spoke of earlier have had Gnsc updates as well as my 8 and 15i.If you think a stock wadia sounds good, a modded unit blows the doors off a stock ... 
Here we go again...Silver vs. Copper on P/C 's
I tried silver pc and didn't like what it did for my system, I found it to bright.Silver imparts it's own electrical signiture to the audio signal,copper has less of an impact on the same signal. I am partial to Virtual Dynamics cables because the... 
Wadia 861 vs. 861 SE
I have a friend who had a 16i updated to the se platform and loved the difference it made to the bass and imaging. He said that everything was more fleshed out and real,also the dynamics were improved across the board. The se is truly a worthy upg... 
What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps?
Why don't you contact Mr. Go himself since he is from Renton wa.I think that his pre is about as good as the get depending on ones budget. Go to First Sound .com to get a phone number, you will not deal with a fairer gentleman in audio-Good huntin...

Anyone using a 27ix/270 with a Purcell?
Well if you think the Elrods are good, then try a VD Master and hear your Wadia for the first time.I tried the Elrod and the VD made mince meat out of them, there was not one area where the Statement came close!Uli is correct on the Aural Symphoni... 
How to improve my system : Shunyata Hydra ?
First and foremost youmight think of upgrading to a dedicated BX wiring that is shielded and used for dryers(in the normal world). Also using cryoed breakers and outlets makes a huge difference to a ss amp that is able to draw 20 amps. The questio... 
Active Biamping of Your Dreams for Magneplanars
If you want a truly clean amp that is world class then you should look at Sim audio w-10's or a pair of w-5's. These amps have great control over Martin Logan SL3 offering a huge stage with great dynamics as well as delicate nuiances.If you can af... 
Need speaker wire for my Dynaudio Contour 4's
Try Virtual Dyunamics and you won't look back.I also have a speaker that uses Dynaudio ( very modified)and run the Master series cables. 
cones or amp stand-???
I always enjoy a arguement that uses Stereofool as a reference ( after all all those advertisers can't be wrong!!). The diode effect does work on concrete floors since I've used both points and the Sistrum 101 stands throughout my system. What the...
