| Esoteric P5/D5 Opinions please Tboooe, I haven't got a BNC cable yet, so that's the next thing on my to do list. I've been trying to understand all the settings on each unit in between enjoying the music.BTW I think its real cool to see the clamp on the P5. | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? I've just upgraded to the Esoteric P-05/D-05 and its a keeper! | |
| Esoteric P5/D5 Opinions please Hi TboooeI've just committed on the P5D5, almost knew once I took it back, if it sounded good, it was not going back to the shop. Well it sounded more than just good.Digital system anciliaries:P5 sits on top of the D5 which rests on Nordost Ti Pul... | |
| Esoteric P5/D5 Opinions please Tboooe, thanks.My initial impression of the P5D5 is:Its an extraordinary combo. Powercords/digital cables and interconnects all play a part on the sound, as does footers. There is a kind of darkness/silence between the instruments, separation is o... | |
| Esoteric P5/D5 Opinions please TbooeWhat do you get more as you move up from the X03se to the X01Ltd?Do the separates make a bigger deal than a single box unit? Separate power supplies, less noise, etc... | |
| Esoteric P5/D5 Opinions please Here you go Yada:http://www.teac.com/esoteric/D-05.html | |
| Esoteric P5/D5 Opinions please One comment about the X03se is that it does not convert DSD in its native format, rather down converts it to PCM then analog. IMO this is does not do justice to SACD playback.The P5D5 OTOH, up converts PCM to DSD or upsamples to 176/192, as does t... | |
| Esoteric P5/D5 Opinions please Hi Tboooe,Your last comment interest me. Could you elaborate on why you think the X03se/X01ltd (not the X01D2) is the sweet spot in their line up?I'm particularly interested in the X03se (to save some money), but could stretch to the P5D5 if reall... | |
| Ortofon Jubilee vs. Dynavector XX-2 Mk. 2 IMO the XX2 would be a more "enjoyable" as in musical cart, it does many things right, and a few things extraordinary, especially in the area of dynamics. | |
| Dynaudio Sapphire speaker Have you guys read this thread?http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?cspkr&1186358989&openmine&zzCmk&4&5#Cmk | |
| Koetsu Restoration Hi DserrenMay I know what VTF are you using with the Black now and what was the original recommended VTF?What is the TT setup of your main rig if I might enquire?Thanks | |
| Help,Allaerts or Transfiguration The Allaerts carts have a range, some of which are more sensitive to loading, VTF and require high gain phonos.The one which is less sensitive to these factors and yet still sounds very good is the MC1B, which has 0.5mv output. I believe that pric... | |
| Raven owners - how's your mid-range? As I recall, the Universe is very sensitive to VTA. This is where you should look first. | |
| For those who "sold" Dynaudio Evidence speakers I hate to say this, but Matteiser is right, wait till you hear the Dynaudio Sapphires. These are some of the most coherent and musical speakers around, plus they actually look good - a big departure from the standard Dynaudio designs. We were list... | |
| Tube Tuners Using the Magnum Dynalab MD90T and find it to be excellent. A few friends who came over thought they were listening to a CD. |
