| pro-ject cd box rs2 vs jays audio cd2 mk3 @nonoise I hope someone took notice. 👍 Hope springs eternal 😊 Good rationale for why Technics should follow suit but I seriously doubt that They would. Seems large companies like this with an ample engineering department are motivated to ... | |
| pro-ject cd box rs2 vs jays audio cd2 mk3 @ejlif I also use the Pro-ject SPDIF output to my DAC via a 1 meter RCA digital cable (High Fidelity CT!-1 Ultimate) and the sound is truly splendid. Charles | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @sns My same outcome with the 6EM7 driver tubes, no real differences heard. Very different from my 300b experiences. Charles | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC @boxcarman I wish I could do that. I got into a bad financial situation about 20 years ago by ignoring budgets and being reckless with spending. Once I dug myself out of that hole, I promised myself I would never repeat those past mistakes. Und... | |
| pro-ject cd box rs2 vs jays audio cd2 mk3 I would buy their transport in a heartbeat if they would convert over to the Stream Unlimited CD Pro 8. They responded that no such plans were in the making. Too bad😟 Agree! CD Pro 8 drive system puts CD playback in an entirely different perfor... | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @david_ten I’m pretty sure Scott is familiar with Arthur Loesch and I’m very curious to know his thoughts regarding driver tube attributes (Particularly the high current aspect). Given Scott’s expertise I suspect he has a strong opinion one way ... | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC @terrapin77 A very good choice you have made. Let's face it, you've received a plethora of really good choices and yet there's even more. You could randomly select from the recommendations and choose a winner. I will say that the used Aqua La Vo... | |
| In Classical music the effect of SQ on appreciation @frogman Start out with the focus truly on the music and I think a lot of the angst goes away. +1 and also +1 @newbee . Very insightful commentary from both of you. Of course who wouldn’t want exceptionally good music performance and sound q... | |
| SET Shootout China VS The USA @pesky_wabbit I don't doubt what you say in regard to the final sound quality. I just wanted to clear the air concerning the tube's innate 5 component/elements construction. Charles | |
| SET Shootout China VS The USA @jond But you are doing it again you're not listening to tubes you're listening to tube amps. So whatever tube it is you do listen to next make sure it's in a good amp. 100% correct👍 Charles | |
| SET Shootout China VS The USA @mozartfan SET on a xover type speaker does not work, I tried it, its a complete failure Perhaps in your one instance, the complete opposite experience for me. My 3 way 5 driver speakers were built from the ground up to be very compatible ... | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @david_ten Arthur Loesch tracked me down at the CES a few years ago, and as we chatted and toured the rooms at the Alexis Park, he mentioned that most DHT’s sound alike - if driven by a low enough source impedance and a powerful driver with *lo... | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC @terrapin77 I believe that @mresseguie made some very insightful points. Given your description of what type of sonic presentation you’re seeking the non over sampling (NOS) DAC approach make a lot of sense. As mentioned above the overwhelming f... | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @smodtactical I had first generation Elrogs that were beautiful sounding but unreliable. I do believe that Thomas Mayer has corrected all the earlier issues. I don't hear or read about failed tubes anymore. So I believe that you have made an ... | |
| pro-ject cd box rs2 vs jays audio cd2 mk3 @erictal4075 Yes it seems that @jaymark acquired a defective unit, unfortunately it happens. My Pro Ject RS2T has been flawless in operation and is silent while in use. Best quality it possesses is superb Redbook CD playback. The designers/engin... |
