| TRELJA in New York, 2002 While I hate the notion of a $175,000 system, I have to say that the Lamm, Utopia, DCS system was as good as it gets.Not spectacular sound, but just beautiful, natural sweet music with the most musical bass I have ever heard. I left this room depr... | |
| Looking for Amp advice Hi AllThanks for the responses. I just came back from the NYshow, and aftermany back and forths, I decided on the Gamut D200.I think it will be a good match with the Hovland pre. Still Clueless about cables - ic's, speakerand power. How are the pr... | |
| Who does make excellent EQUALIZERS??? I am using the Accuphase DG-28 equalizer. It works in the digital domain - no signal degradation.Control is 1/6 octave.Can be adjusted manually, or using their algorhythms.You can measure your room reponse with a supplied microphone.It puts out a ... | |
| Speaker recommendations for 2,500 or less? TclipseThe Proac 1.5 is a great speaker - beautiful mids and hi's,but I never felt it had the bottom to rock. | |
| What's Up Wth Ultimate Audio Magazine ? I've been wondering the same thing. The last issue I received was Winter 2001 - with Talon Khorus on cover. I've tried to find out what was up from them but no response. | |
| Spectral DMA 150 compares to Rowland Model 6 and 8 MattBoth the standard DMA-150, and DMA-180 require a Spectral preamp.

| best dealer to buy a avalon speaker I have to second Overture Audio. Terry Menacker, the owneris extremely knowledgeable, and is as nice, and helpful a guy as you will ever meet in this business. | |
| Spectral DMA 150 compares to Rowland Model 6 and 8 TimI completely agree. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to go for the spectral front end (too $$$). I opted for the Accuphase DP-75V-which works well within this system.Carl | |
| Spectral DMA 150 compares to Rowland Model 6 and 8 Vtin-I have a spectral DMA 180/DMC 20 connnected to Avalon Opus with all Spectral/MIT Cables. This system was jointly designed to work together. In my experience, the Rowland amps tend to be much warmer than the Spectral, which has a much cleaner,... | |
| Speakers for small room,near field I had a pair of Proac 1.5's in a 10x10 room.Fantastic imaging, in nearfield listening. Also, a very smoothe natural sound.New they are $3000, used around $1800.Good Luck | |

| Room correction in high-end system??? Hey MetaphysicsThe thing about a vinyl front end is that you have to run it through the units A to D, and that leaves you at the mercy of the quality of their A to D. It also seems sacreligious to convert a beautiful analog signal from a turntable... | |
| Room correction in high-end system??? Hi MetaphysicsI have a high end system - Spectral, Accuphase, and Avalonand I have added a DSP - the Accuphase DG-28.In answer to your first concern - I don't have a vinyl front end, but I don't think you want to convert an analog signal into digi... | |
