| Zu Druid MK IVs vs. Essences Hi,Docks which particular Zu models have you listened to and with what amplifier? Did the audition take place in your system, dealer showroom or was it at a show? What did you think?Thanks Much, | |
| Zu Druid MK IVs vs. Essences Shadone,The solution is simple if you don`t like the sound of something ,don`t buy it. For those who like the sound and if it improves their enjoyment, measurements be dammed.I`m sure you selected your componemts based on listening(I would hope) o... | |
| Kondo DAC : Why no reviews ?? Steve`s point is still valid. Kondo has such a strong market niche and following(waiting list)they don`t need to bother with the whole review/opinion/personal bias bandwagon. People who buy this brand know what they want and are getting it. The Ro... | |
| Zu Druid MK IVs vs. Essences For sake of arguement, even if the measurements of this Zu speaker are actually poor, if it sounds wonderful, then the measurements are irrelevant ultimately. Ears trump lab results. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Takatsuki 300b,In the current 6 moons.com this made in japan tube has a highly impressive review. It could be the new standard among current production premium 300b tubes.Best Regards, | |
| Zu Druid MK IVs vs. Essences Sebrof,I believe that explanation is correct regarding inappropriate measuring method given the speaker`s unique design. | |
| Why magic at 80 db? Bob,This is an interesting topic. I beieve it`s a combination of components and software. Some Cds sound very vivid,energetic and alive at 60-65db levels in my system. Other s require a sound level of upper 70s-85 to provide the same effect.I`ve n... | |
| Zu Druid MK IVs vs. Essences Klein,Morganc says the Omen/Superflys have apparently more detail than the earlier Zu Druids/Essence models. What amplifier? Price range?Other options, Tekton,Tonian Lab, Coincident,Sonist. These are examples of high efficiency speakers with detai... | |
| Isolation transformer It`s refreshing to read the posts of other balanced transformer owners who`s experiences have been as rewarding as my own(note the various brands also). This does represent good science/engineering priciples put to use to significantly improve the... | |
| Isolation transformer Glai,As with most things concerning home audio they`re many individual experiences. I`ve used a BPT BP 3.5 Signature Plus (balanced transformer similar to Equi-tech) for close to 3 years. It has been an oustanding addition to my system and all com... | |
| Totem Forest, Devore super8 or Spendor A6 Restock,I find your post thorough and accurate. It really boils down to what you`re seeking. The Devore is refined, very natural and has good tone. It will excel with voice and acoustic instruments.I once own a pair of Totems and find them less na... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Hi,Montejay, thanks for the clarifications.I know you`ve been very happy with the S.Treasures, are you going to try the Pavane versions and compare?Best Regards, | |
| Best non-USB Dac for $3k, computer as source? Herman,Ditto, Loftarasa`s post makes little sense. | |
| Rega vs Burson Dac "The BDA-1 is a better DAC"Not based on your above comparisions.The Rega DAC seems to have completely involved you emotionally into your music, replayed the same song "3 times" that says it all. The Bryston was apparently better with the hifi/audi... | |
| Best non-USB Dac for $3k, computer as source? In addition to Danlib1`s fine suggestion you should research the Metrum Acoustics Octave DAC. Both of these have been reviewed on 6 moons.com and have out performed considerably more expensive DACs. |
