| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Guys, I appreciate the show reports, but how in the world can anyone really know that something sounds better than another at a show in those conditions? Just wondering. That's one reason I love Matt's approach. Get things in YOUR room and your ... | |
| Speaker help under $2,500 Great wife Eddy. Most would love a wife who did that for them. Enjoy and do keep them for a few months to really hear them. They very well may be your cup of tea. They are very musical speakers and enjoyable. | |
| Proac response One SC or Proac response D15?? The new ribbons are a totally different speaker than the other D's as webbed said. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD wisnon, have you heard the Sound Galleries MS? Just curious as to why you feel it will be the best? I'm waiting on hearing the Melco NAS before I buy a NAS. A friend of mine in Japan loves this NAS. Thought I'd throw that in also as this threa... | |
| What vintage speaker might you use today It's an interesting thread to say the least. The more I listen to newer speakers, I don't think that many if any of the older ones hold a candle to them. The newer ones just use better materials etc... that the older ones can't match. Even the ... | |
| New floor stand speakers First off anyone should listen before buying. That's been a given in audio and just common sense. We all hear and like different things. As for B&W using cheap drivers, I don't think I said that and if I did, I'm sorry. Very sorry. Their d... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD TRT not Mundorf. Sorry. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I just found out that Aesthetix is now using the Stealth Cap by Mundorf I believe is he company. | |
| A little help please Johnny, will get you the right cables for the right budget. The AQ cables just work as they are very neutral. The DBS units are great to use. Heck if you can fit it in, a double run of the Rocket 88's would be killer and you'd really get it to ... | |
| I'm considering used Vandersteen Quatro Guys, I've sent a few folks to Johnny in the last couple of years and they all have been very very happy. Jetson is included in this. He just understands how and why things sound good together. Yes, he loves Vandersteen, but he also sells Proac... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I've yet to hear a D'agostino in a store that I liked. Personally, any of the amps we have all spoken about have sounded much better to me (I've heard many, but not all the amps in this thread). They are pretty to look at, but at that price poin... | |
| New floor stand speakers I don't feel the Wilson's are a contender to any of the speakers in that class. They are dynamic, but not refined at all and they all produce an upper mid ringing that drives folks nuts. I was speaking with someone last night about the XLF's wit... | |
| Simple question, best sounding inexpensive DAC. I have a Music Hall 25.3 DAC/headphone amp. It has a tube and can also be run in balanced mode. I was using it in a system that costs well over 40k and it didn't embarrass itself. I have upgraded, but it's so musical and revealing that it kept s... | |
| Proac response One SC or Proac response D15?? The newer Proac D series with ribbons are KILLERs I'm a Vandersteen guy and love them for what they do, but I owned Proac's since the mid 90's. I went to the Proac dealer a couple of years ago and walked out with Treo's, lol. I did like the D se... | |
| New floor stand speakers I went with Vandersteen Treo's when leaving my Proac's after over 20 years. I love the newer Vandy line and the Quatro is in your range and ar killer for the price. Very clean, fast and natural sounding. The disappear easily too. I'm with Mel ... |
