| InFocus Screenplay 4805 vs Panasonic PT-L500U www.avsforum.com is the one he is referring to. | |
| Seeking $15,000.00 speaker to replace Quad 988's I was a Magnepan owner for years yearning for more dynamic volume as you did with your stats but not willing to sacrific the transparency and speed of planar speakers or the pinpoint imaging.Now I own Wilson Watt Puppy 7's (or you could get a set ... | |
| Which 3K CDP: Simaudio Nova, Ayre CX-7 Wadia 302 "Sim Audio" Good thing about that 10 year warranty, I had my Sim Audio W5 for only 5 days before I sent it back!Are you really intending to keep your front end for 10years? in 5 years a $200 player will kill it..My wadia 12 that I bought used was ... | |
| Best Player or DAC: ceiling $3k My Gamut CD1R is amazing, my friends Meridian 508.24 (which I was going to get) has amazing slam control on the bass, but the Gamut is Liquid on top.. Both are super detailed but not thin like the Levinson units I've heard. | |
| Need some pre-amp advice... Rowland Synergy IIi is amazing and is a fully balanced design. | |
| Wilson Maxx 2 KarmapoliceThe Rowland 302 were impressive on the Maxx 2's, I heard Halcro's on the original Maxx's.I own Lamm M1.1s (not many of those owners either) that I use with my WP7... It's a magical Combination... I have a Rowland Synergy IIi Preamp that... | |
| Best Amp/Preamp/CD or DAC for Wilson Watt Puppy 7 Keithr- The Rowland 201's were really amazing with my WP7's but they couldn't drive the bass with enough authority compared to my Lamm's. They have liquid smooth top end... Tubes without the pain! and they run really cool.. The Sophia's are an eas... | |
| Plinius SA250 or Gamut D200 Humm, your current dac and amplifier are on the "warm" side already are you using silver interconnects/wiring (sometimes makes the system etched), otherwise if it is too uninvolving you might have to look at your interconnects or adding a preamp.T... | |
| Best Amp/Preamp/CD or DAC for Wilson Watt Puppy 7 I'm quite happy with Lamm M1.1s (tried the Rowland 201's nice character but missing something) Rowland Synergy IIi Preamp running on DC. Gamut CD1R and all transparent cabling. (I would love to try EMM gear but I'm broke for now..)I've heard wp7 s... | |
| Plinius SA250 or Gamut D200 What Preamp and CD player are being used? These might be affecting your system more than changing amplifiers | |
| Cables and Loud Hum I had a pair of Monster interconnects which weren't soldered correctly and caused a ground hum in my system.. removing them solved the problem.. they went into the trash. (I spent way to much time troubleshooting the problem) | |
| Wilson Maxx 2 They were a big step up from my WP7's in that they produced a wall of sound.. versus just the pinpoint soundstage the WP7's provide. I still enjoy and believe no other speaker short of large Stators or Magnepans can provide the imaging or quicknes... | |
| Wilson WP7 vs JM Lab Alto BE vs Avalon Eidolon The WP7 will go lower and will have tighter bass with your tubes because with the purchase of WP7's you will get an extra set of ports for using tube equipment (works with less damping) The transparent cabling Synergy is excellent (just check my s... | |
| Tubed DAC problems,opinions please. Call ARC on Monday, they have awesome support, also 6922 tubes don't cost much so get a new set from ARC before you ship it back for repairs... I wouldn't have shipped it with the tubes installed | |
| Plinius 9200 and power conditioning The Hydra doesn't limit current so you are ok to use it. If it was transformer based then you would hear reduced dynamic... |
