| Unstable Imaging - Causes? I am certainly not an expert, but I have noticed profound imaging differences between digital and analogue. Analogue is (for the most part) deeper and more spacious in its effects. It sounds like your room is posing reflections off of surfaces tha... | |
| Help. My system is shouting at me I really am not a technical guy, but it sounds like standard digital fatigue. I have noticed this quality even on players costing upward of $10,000, but not always if everything locks in just right. This is where you might need professional opinio... | |

| The value of open space Confidence level? I would say the same as that of my own existence: an open question. I am willing to take the challenge any time, my ears are ready. I would love to find a CD player that tears asunder the vast empty. Any suggestions? Please suggest! | |
