| purchasing a Scout/Scoutmaster: need input please Agypsy...the Dyna 20X is highly recommended by VPI and they actually sell it with their tables (http://www.vpiindustries.com/products_dyno1.htm) because of the synergy with JMW-9 tonearm. Good luck. | |
| Help with the move to digital server Check out the Olive 4HD music server (http://www.olive.us/products/olive4hd/overview.html) with 2TB of hard drive, digital output that you can run into your Esoteric DAC, and music management software that can be accessed through the touch sensiti... | |
| VPI Classic - Now you have one...... Thx John. Appreciate the response. | |
| Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation Madfloyd...they were definitely not set up correctly if that's what you heard. Did you hear them at a show or at a dealer? If at an audio show, poor room sonics or partnering equipment were the likely culprits. I doubt you heard them at a dealer (... | |
| Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation Argyro...I am not offended by your preference for Verity over Rockport :-) I like both speakers a lot as you could probably tell from my lengthy responses to the OP above. I was just wondering what you had auditioned the Rockports with to make sur... | |
| VPI Classic - Now you have one...... John...I am considering the Classic with A Benz Micro Glider S Lo output cart for my first ever vinyl set up. What digital do you have in your system? And givent hat this is your first vinyl set up, how would you compare the sound of the Classic t... | |
| Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation Argyro...what amps did you listen to the Rockports with? Your Wavacs are a very nice match with your Sarastros because they are easy to drive (especially given their benign impedance). If you tried the Wavacs with the Rockports they would not have... | |
| Speaker cables for Simaudio/ Dynaudio I use the Heimdall speaker cables and interconnects in my system (Thiel 2.4 speakers with ARC amplification and source) and I think they are the sweet spot in the Nordost line in terms of price/performance. Having said that, it does not mean they ... | |
| Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation Windowsx...remember, the bass frequencies are omnidirectional so there orientation whether pointing bacwards, forwards, or on the side should not affect transparency in any way. Also, on the Parsifals, the bass modules are flexible so you can have... | |
| Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation Ejlif thanks...I am a big fan of both speakers so I guess i went a little over board with my response. cheers. | |
| Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation Actually Windosx...imaging (and soundstaging) i actually think the Parsifals are a bit better than the Miras. On transparency, they are both very resolving. I think the mids are a bit cleaner in the Miras and the highs a bit cleaner in the Parsifa... | |
| Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation Windowsx...I have heard both extensively at my dealer. They are cut from somewhat different sonic cloths. But they are both excellent speakers. At the end of the day, it will come down to preference, associated gear and the room you plan on using ... | |
| ARC Ref 3 bad tube? tlg...i suspect it's your 6550c tube that's the issue. I opened my Ref 3 and there was no such residue in my 6550c tube. It was all clear inside. By the way, why did you replace the 6550 at 2200 hrs in the Ref 3? ARC suggests replacing the 6550s i... | |
| VPI Classic - Now you have one...... For those of you who have recently put in an order for the Classic tt, what are you being quoted for delivery times? I know they are back-ordered but are we talking a few weeks or a few months or what? Thx | |
| Bryston BDA-1 DAC, any thoughts? Drubin...which USB-to-SPDIF converter do you use? Thx |
