| Aerial 7T/6 vs Vandersteen Quatro/Treo/2Ce Sig II Tony, yes it was great and next time we need to set it up ahead of time. If he can get my Treo's sounding even better than that, I'll be blown away, lol....my AX7 and front end aren't in the same league as what we heard, but my vinyl set up could ... | |
| AudioQuest SKY revisit Bo, thanks for sharing. I love my Niagara. I can't afford the Wild, but in time maybe. I have been an MIT guy for ages and I still love my wire, especially my MH770. It's not biwired and I just got the Vandy's so I can't use it on them, hence I'm ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Guys, John at Audio Connection in Verona NJ has Aethetix and Ayre. He can surely help you out and let you audition in your home I bet. He's on this board and is friends with many of us. | |
| Got an LP cleaner you want to make money on? Now I want to try and make an ultrasonic cleaner, lol.....and it starts.....Also noticed a Sota for a great deal. Sota vs 16.5????? OUCH, lol. | |
| AudioQuest SKY revisit I meant to say Niagara in my last post not Lapis, lol. SF, it's interesting as Sky and Wild will sound different with different electronics. Sometimes Sky will actually be better depending on the system according to a dealer I was speaking with ab... | |
| Ayre AX-5 Integrated Amplifier Yes, teh AX5 is high current and is over 100 watts into 8 and keeps doubling until 2ohms. It can drive nearly anything. I've heard it drive Vandy 5's perfectly. It's also one of those that sound louder than it is. I've head it in a large room and ... | |
| Set-Up Advice for Vandersteen 1Cs If you are still in the market, I have 2 pairs of Proacs that are for sale, lol. The monitors are currently at Audio Connection where they'll ship out off and you can do a cc if you want. Just let me know. Both sets are in teak. | |
| Aerial 7T/6 vs Vandersteen Quatro/Treo/2Ce Sig II Hopefully this week Jay. Also, it looks like I'm getting a Bellari phono pre and VPI 16.5. Eventually when I sell the rest of my gear, I'll get a new TT/Cart adn sell off my Rotel TT with the Van den Hul MM1 cart which is in great shape still. WHe... | |
| Got an LP cleaner you want to make money on? What a thread, lol. i have been really learning a ton on this subject. I have spoken to a few audiophiles I trust. It's well known and has been for a long time that cleaning a new LP is needed. My old dealer used to let me bring in my LP's along w... | |
| audiophile help needed in CT Berlin here. Honestly the top TT guy I've found in the northeast is an old timer. Call John at Audio Connection in Verona NJ. He's also on this board and may be able to talk you though much of it. If it's repair he's got a great guy whom he can us... | |
| Set-Up Advice for Vandersteen 1Cs I have a great sounding NAD 326BEE that I"m willing to part with since I got my Ayre integrated. I used it with my Proac Super Towers for a year and it sounded pretty good. not in the same class as Ayre, but for what it cost it was great. Let me k... | |
| Got an LP cleaner you want to make money on? Ok, VPI or Nitty Gritty? Some company offers a Nitty Gritty head and you hook up your own vac. I have a variable speed canister that is perfect for this. I have a few hundred records and am thinking of a Bellari USB pre amp to save them digitally,... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Just back from Audio Connections where I got to hear Vandy's, Pro Acs, Maggies and B&W.....not even close. Vandy's just clobber the others as they are coherent and give you exactly what the electronics are giving them. They are just musical. I... | |
| Aerial 7T/6 vs Vandersteen Quatro/Treo/2Ce Sig II Just back from a trip to NJ to see John at Audio connection. Got to meet Mark and "Tony" from this board too. that was awesome. We spent all day and well into the night listening to everything. I can honestly say that the Proacs, Maggies or B&... | |
| Got an LP cleaner you want to make money on? I'm got an older rotel TT with Van den hul MM1 that I broke back out and listened to the other day at Audio Connection. They set it up properly and it sounded ok. Then I heard a record on the Clearaudio Concept i think it was and WOW...What a diff... |
