| Resolution Audio Opus 21 TRL Audio mod Bill, was your Opus stock or a modded unit? | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 TRL Audio mod The GNSC mods to the Opus 21 are well documented here and on other sites and have received almost universal praise. Is there a particular reason that you feel compelled to search out a different moodder? Do you know if TRL has any experience moddi... | |
| RWA amp with DODD preamp both battery powered Mrjstark,Thanks for the insight. As with all things audio, I'm sure the best tubes are system dependent. I'm pretty happy with the Amperex 6dj8's I'm using now and they're relatively affordble. I'll search out a couple of other pairs in the 6922/6... | |
| RWA amp with DODD preamp both battery powered mrjstark, I still only have about twenty hours on the Dodd so far, so my impressions are still developing, but I definitely share your enthusiasm for this pre. The synergy with my VAC Auricles is amazing. I listen to a lot of acoustic music and th... | |
| Recommend me more like John Adams.. Mick, I suggest you open up a Pandora.com account and set up a "John Adams" station. This is the best way I've found to find music that "sounds like" other artists that I like. | |
| RWA amp with DODD preamp both battery powered Mrjstark. I got mine yesterday, but only have a couple of hours of play time as well. Sounds great so far and the build quality is very good. I skipped the stock JJ's and am using a pair of Amperex A-frame (orange label) 6dj8's. I've read that fol... | |
| RWA amp with DODD preamp both battery powered Mrjstark, I would be interested in your initial impressions of the Dodd. I also ordered one from Walter and should have it shortly. I will be using mine with a pair of VAC Auricle 70/70 monoblocs that are also in route. I strongly considered the 3... | |
| CDP Cary 308, Consonance 120 or Cambridge 740? The tubed version of the Cary 308, i.e. the 308T, is excellent. They show up here occasionally for around $1000 and is a great CDP for that price. | |
| Pre for VAC Auricle Musicbloc 70/70 I ordered the Dodd. My curiosity got the better of me. I'll report back in a few weeks after everything is settled in. | |
| 2-3K, Integrated or Seperates If I were starting a system from scratch in a small space, the Red Wine integrated would be at the top of my list. | |
| Pre for VAC Auricle Musicbloc 70/70 Thanks to all. Sherod, I don't have the amps yet, but once I have them I may take you up on your offer to pick your brain from time to time. Thanks for the recommendations on the cables, tubes, and the promethean. For the short term, I will have t... | |
| Newbie needs help I agree with Tvad. If the left/right speakers are only 4.5 ft apart and you're seated say 8-9 ft away, you will not get the channel separation that is the intent of surround sound. In other words, you will not be able to distinguish the left/right... | |
| Cary Six Pac vs. sli-80 The SLi-80 has 80 watts of power in ultralinear mode and 50 watts in triode. The Sixpacs are 50 watt triode only amps. I own the Sli-80 and love it, but haven't heard the sixpacs so I can't compare the two. You're not going to get the bass of high... | |
| Allison Moorer - Mochingbird Mockingbird is very good, but found the production to be a bit spotty. Alison Moorer's compilation CD, "Collections", is also excellent and is sonically very good. | |
| Resolution Audio Opus21 cabling options I have this player with the GNSC Reference mods and have experimented with both the DIN and RCA outputs and i actually prefer the RCA outs. They are very close, almost to the point of being indistinguishable, but after extensive comparison I found... |
