| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? Do Bryston amps use all bipolar transistors and no MOSFET's? | |
| Parasound Halo JC-1 -VS- Bryston 7B-ST? No I am not bored with the JC-1's.I was just curious on how the Bryston 7B-ST's sound.I have never heard a Bryston amp before. | |
| Best wire to replace stock wiring in preamp? Where is the best and least expensive place to obtain high quality teflon insulated solid core silver wiring for this purpose and who makes it?Thanks. | |
| Amp Help ICE or Class D Hey Plato,Very interesting indeed!Any idea when the NuForce 350 watt amp will be introduced?Thanks,Lanny | |
| Pass X-series preamp with Adcom GFA-5802 amp? Hey Audio_girl,In my experience the Pass X-2.5 has better resolution at the frequency extremes, better vocal reproduction, and better dynamics than the Adcom GFP-750.I used the Adcom GFP-750/Adcom GFA-5802 combo for a while with great results. The... | |
| Review: Parasound Empirical Audio JC-1 Turbo Mod Amplifier Great review Drhst20!Very detailed and to the point.This makes me want to try the mods myself even more!Great job. Enjoy your modded amps and happy listening!Lanny | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Downunder,Believe it or not, it took mine almost 1,400 hours to fully open up. Its a real pain in the ass!I left them on 24/7 for 60 days. Thats also what Bob Crump, one of its designers, also recommends.For the first 20 to 30 days they were thin ... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Sorry guys, but I have to whole-heartedly disagree with your impressions of the JC-1 monoblocks.Granted, mine are fully broken-in and I do use Signal Cable Magic Power Cords with them...a big improvement over the stock cords, IMHO. I am also using... | |
| How good is Empirical Audio's Parasound JC1 Mod? Hi Drhst20,Just curious, did you ever get your JC-1's back from Empirical Audio?If so, what are your impressions after mods?In ALL HONESTY, are the mods really worth the $2,300.00 that they charge?Would you still recommend having the Empirical Aud... | |
| Adcom GFP 750 Pre Amp & Adcom GFA 5802 They do match up very well together...but they have sort of a dark, warmish character, and lack ultimate speed and ultimate detail, especially on the top-end, when used together. The best charateristic they had when I had both together in my syste... | |
| Onkyo DV-SP1000 or Pioneer DV-59AVi? I also read on the AVS Forum that Kris Deering of Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity bought an Onkyo DV-SP1000 to mainly test its video, and found CUE [Chroma Upsampling Error] issues with the component video output on the 1000. | |
| Pass X-2.5 -vs- Pass Aleph P, What Differences? Thanks for your responses! | |
| Upgrading from Adcom GFA 5802 If I were you, I would try the Parasound Halo JC-1's.These match up extremely well with the Adcom GFP-750 preamp.Plenty of transparency and top-end extension, along with outstanding bass control and extension. | |
| Is the SACD Format Flawed? In my personal opinion, DVD-Audio discs that are very well recorded sound better than CD or SACD, but still not quite as good as an excellent vinyl set-up.From my experience, a well recorded DVD-Audio disc has better focus and top-end air than eit... | |
| Is the SACD Format Flawed? I have read from a couple of sources that SACD's actually have less resolution, dynamic range, and a lower signal-to-noise ratio in the mid and upper treble frequencies than regular CD's!Has anyone else read about this, or heard this? |
