Opinions on Apogee Duet performance
Rrboogie, I haven't placed it in my main system but I would not be surprised if it compared very favorably to my Resolution Audio Opus 21 CDP, which in and of itself is a great CDP. The headphones I use for listening are Audio Technica ATH-W1000.I... 
Opinions on Apogee Duet performance
I've got one and use it to listen to music through my headphones. Aesthetically, it is beautiful to look at and beautifully built. It has a wonderfully slim form factor and partners any Mac wonderfully. As for sound, it is wonderfully smooth yet a... 
Emm Lab CDSA-Se vs Resolution Opus 21.
Thanks again Arthur and Sammie.I think it would work but I'll check with Vinnie. Arthur, my Opus has already been modded by GNSC ;-)I just looked into the Revelation Audio umbilicale cable, uh, damn (gulp), how much of an improvememt did you perce... 
Emm Lab CDSA-Se vs Resolution Opus 21.
Arthur, I know that you own an Opus. Have you ever wired it directly to an amp? Also, would the Audience din to rca cable split sufficiently to plug into monoblocks.Hunglo you make a good point. I'm not sure you can feed the din connecting directl... 
Emm Lab CDSA-Se vs Resolution Opus 21.
I too am interested in knowing how to connect the opus from the DIN output directly to my amps. Does anyone have an answer? 
Musical Fidelity X series Integrateds
The X150 Integrated would have no trouble driving either speaker. Again, price wise you are getting a lot for your money. 
Musical Fidelity X series Integrateds
I have owned the X150 amp and find it to be a very capable performer. Has enough current to drive most speakers. Isn't quite as refined when pushed but really overachieves at its price point.I'd recommend it. What are the rest of the components in... 
Ray LaMontagne - Got the Stuff
Great first album. I have the second on order.If you like Ray you may be into the smoother Amos Lee. He's got a couple of albums that are worth listening to. Also, as I have stated on another thread further down, Terry Callier is one of those diam... 
The Beatles vs. The Rolling Stones
bands in rock and pop.As for the choice between The Beatles or The Rolling Stones, it's a no brainier, I'd always choose The Who. 
Anyone here a Terry Callier fan?...
Thanks for the reply Redkiwi. Can I infer that you're from New Zealand?Terry Callier is truly unique and chronically under-appreciated singer/song writer. You're quite right when you state that there's no substitute for his brand of composition an... 
Anyone here a Terry Callier fan?...
I can't believe it! Only one response to a man who has put out some blindingly brilliant music, well I can believe it. There's no accounting for taste. Meanwhile there's seventy plus posts for Patrica Barber, who's not bad if a tad pretentious at ... 
Anyone here a Terry Callier fan?...
Interestingly that album "Lifetime" is considered to be one of his weaker efforts (Beth and Terry's duet being an exception).You should also try to get your hands on "Speak your peace". One of my all time favorite Callier albums is "Occasional Rai... 
best all-round,full range at $2000
Uh, that would be the Gallo Nucleus Reference 3s. 
Thinking about selling my CD collection = MP3
You're really not going to get very much money for them and somewhere down the road you'll wonder why you sold them.Don't. I have and ended up buying stuff for a second time.
