| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? Larry,I always enjoy reading your well informed input and opinions. Have you heard the PHY drivers and in partic ular the 12 inch version?Regards, | |
| Review: Boulder 1060 Amplifier That post by Audiolabyrinth is embaressing and simply uncalled for.Why do people get so emotional and personal over what should be a happy hobby and pastime? | |
| Zu DruidV's has anybody heard them? Hey Phil,Come on with your report, the suspense is killing us(smile).Regards, | |
| VAC Signature mk2 vs Purity Audio Ultra? Dragon,I`ve been asked that question a few times.I heard the Dude in standard form and 'without' the CAST capacitor upgrade.I installed the CAST into my speakers and DAC and the improvement was fabulous!(no hyperbole).I can easily imagine the Dude... | |
| dc10audio use Duelund CAST capacitor ? Irish65,I can understand why you thought that.I thought the natural and inert quality of the Duelund was the attraction for it's use.Quad man's reply just confirmed that line of thinking.The Duelund effect in my system has been stunning.Regards | |
| dc10audio use Duelund CAST capacitor ? Hi Irish65,Actually the combination makes sense to me.It seems the speaker designer wants to voice his cabinet(similar to say Ocellia or Tonian Lab approach).The choice of various wood(spruce or cedar) and its generous use indicates this is what t... | |
| Help with tube specs Onemug,That`s excellent news!I`m glad you took the chance and it worked out.I`d like to try these EML meshplates someday.Wished we lived near one another and could swap these with the Takatsuki 300b.Regards, | |
| SACD vs Regular CD's Phaelon,I understand the theory that SACD 'should' sound better(and sometimes it does).The reality has not shown this to be the case consistently.Perhaps with classical music SACD is clearly superior.With the heavy jazz rotation I listen to,there`... | |
| SACD vs Regular CD's I agree with Steuspeed and Alan,really not much of a different in a well set up system for both formats.Good quality Red Book CD can sound quite excellent.I`ve found much overlap between the two in top level systems.Regards, | |
| dc10audio use Duelund CAST capacitor ? Irish65,Your comparison makes sense, silver products are wonderful with proper implementation.The cost is too high for many of us but the copper CAST are within reach for more people. Just don't hear the silver version and you''ll be very happy wi... | |
| VAC Signature mk2 vs Purity Audio Ultra? I heard the VAC Statement amp(auto bias version) and the new Statement linestage driving the Magico speakers at CES 2 weeks ago. The sound was good but not really special nor was it near the best that I heard at the show. I just think you reach a ... | |
| Need a system for Chamber music--ideas? Brownsfan,In your listed price range (used) I`d suggest the Coincident Triumph II(very efficient). Driven by their Frankenstein 300b SET(or a used wavelength Cardinal for another example).I`m primarily a jazz listener but also getting into classic... | |
| dc10audio use Duelund CAST capacitor ? I love my silver IC and speaker cables, excellent tone and resolution. The copper CAST is an extention of this quality. They are utterly natural and realistic just as bill said.They took my speaker and DAC from very good to simply a superb level o... | |
| Triode TRV A300SER Integrated I'm a serious lover of acoustic jazz and music via my 300b amp is the most natural and realistic I''ve ever heard. I use the sublime Takatsuki 300b tube. I look forward to your review.Regards, | |
| Magico S5 review Hnghifi,The Avantga rde will open doors to the world of superb low power amps as an option.Regards, |
