| Biggest soundstage in a CD Player ? your query implies that cost is no object. i, thus, recommend two possibilities: the accuphase dp100/dc101 combo; or, the boulder 1012 pre/dac with a burmester 969 cd transport (other 24 bit, belt drive transports may be substituted but won't like... | |
| HALCRO Amplifiers i have heard only the model dm 68, which retails for $30k, driving the jm grand utopias. quite impressive. but then, would you expect anything less? -kelly | |
| Coincident Total Eclipse/Avalon Radian gwaudio: 35 watt set's (high current or no) will NOT drive radians (makes no difference whether the radians are "ht," BTW). in my experience, you will enjoy radians more with ss amps than valves, unless you can afford very high power, very clean t... | |
| Over seas releases you might try GEMM.com. they have a huge data base, tho many item descriptions leave a lot to desire. i assume, BTW, that your use of the word "album" refers to lp's rather than cd's, right? -kelly | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" anybody ever seen dunlavy speakers setup for show or at "approved" dealers using zip cord? anybody who owns dunlavy's use ratshack wire between amps and speaks? no? well, why not? that's what the speaker's "inventor" and namesake would do. i wonde... | |
| IS TARA LAB "THE ONE"? avnut: fyi, i posted the following last month on a thread titled "how does tara stack up" :funny you should ask. i've been auditioning speaker cables between my rowland 8ti and avalon eidolons for the past 2 months. i started with cardas neutral r... | |
| Best way to feed a rear sub? i respectfully disagree with gunbei. it's almost always better to use short cables and long interconnects, particularly if you can utilize xlr ic's between fully-balanced components.BTW, what is a "monobrick"? half a monoblock? whatever, i like yo... | |
| Mobile Fidelity is back in business eastern european syntax in my above post an error. ("throw mamma from the train a kiss.") sorry, and no disparagement intended of pollacks and such, ;) -kelly | |
| Mobile Fidelity is back in business there's a story about this on the stereophile website:http://www.stereophile.com/shownews.cgi?1033no indication whether music direct will release only digital products or will do as mfsl always did best, pressing remastered recordings on virgin VI... | |
| Help me Tweek my System, for less you've double-posted. i left the following on your identical thread:1st thing i'd do is get the rack from between the speakers and put it on a sidewall beyond the first reflection point. leave the amp on a stand, using existing cables and buy long... | |
| Is the Live Music Reference Correct? keis: i agree, unhappily, that the great majority of classical and theatrical concerts in the denver area are ruined by poor acoustics. du has built some smaller venues that are wonderful, tho. and, we have some great sounding places for rock/jazz... | |
| High Quality FM Tuner - Advice doug: like you, i still have an onix tuna with soap. (yes, it's a great little bargain of a tuna. no, it ain't as good as the accuphase.) i'm using it much less recently, since our "state" npr outlet decided to split into 2 stations, broadcasting ... | |
| Electrostat Speakers with sub. Finally always glad to hear about someone else moving closer to "the absolute sound." this is what it's all about, isn't it? may your joy continue. you work hard at it, clearly have fun and are worthy of applause. bravo, kublakhan! -kelly | |
| High Quality FM Tuner - Advice the accuphase t-109v is the best tuner i've yet heard, save for the original day sequerra. plus, it's gorgeous to my eyes and built to last as long as a roman aqueduct. -kelly | |
| Power Conditioning in Apartment Complex. if your concern is the consistency and "cleanliness" of the power you'll be getting from your outlets, i'd suggest you replace your tice solo with an ac regeneration device, such as those made by ps audio. such devices take the ac power from the o... |
