| Pass 600 Monos vs Krell 350 monos Otoohot, Are you considering new or used in your price range? If you are considering new equiptment I would highly recommend two amps - the Boulder 1060 and the Accuphase A-50V. I have not heard the 1060 in my system, but a source whom I trust has... | |
| Making cables pretty Albert - Gee I hope that PVC Pipe is treated with a conductive coating and grounded. I am sure you don't want any static on the line... :-) - Dan. | |
| Anyone building or about to build yourself an audio stand? There are some must read threads in the Discussion Forums on this... Search for "Shelving Material" and "Isolation vs. Absorbtion." These are very interesting and informative posts. - Dan | |
| Perpetual Tech Dac vs DCS or Wadia Dacs Hi Tom, Yes you are of course you are correct and I apologize if I came off anti-Wadia. I don't remember the exact configuration when I listened to the Wadia gear. But the dCS was in a rig with almost the same equipment I was "planning" to have at... | |
| Adding a headphone amp to a BAT preamp Doesn't the VK-30 have a mute function? If it does hopefully it does not mute the pre-outs as well. - Dan | |
| Perpetual Tech Dac vs DCS or Wadia Dacs I have heard the Wadia (861 and 270 with 27ix) at a dealer in Berkeley CA and the dCS gear at a dealer in San Jose, CA. The dCS won and in my opinion not by a small margin. The dCS gear had more of everything I considered to be important. The high... | |
| flaws in B&W N802 , N801's My 802s are prefect in the area you describe. Mine are about a year and half old. If you have other B&W dealers in the area, maybe you can examine their 801s and 802s. I would definitely ask B&W directly and if you have a digital camera ta... | |
| New Transport Approach This is a great idea and I am all for it!! Heck I'll even help write the software if I have time. However what about encrypted CDs and anti-piracy concerns? In the not distant future I think we can assume the RIAA will force us all to listen to en... | |
| $6000 Budget Which used Amp ? Wolcotts are suppost to be good with electrostatics. - Dan | |
| Wadia 27/270 vs. dCS Delius+Purcell Hbrandt, Which filter setting are you using on the Delius? Most of the time mine is set to one. - Dan | |
| My CD player won't read CDR or CDRW At the risk of sounding stupid, why update your CD player if it still sounds good? Isn't this a rather expensive route to go to just play a couple of CDRs? What exactly is your motivation? Are you dissatisfied with the Krell’s sound? Don't take th... | |

| Voltage question... If the unit is still under warranty check with Krell and make sure it is transferable to the UK. Not all warranties transfer between countries even if it's transferable between owners. Cheers - Dan | |
| Digital transmission cables I use Illuminations Orchid (Balanced) between my CD Transport and DAC really like it a lot - very neutral and extended top and bottom. | |
| B W 802N versus 801M I think Audio Magazine did a review of the 802N in Feb '99. And I also think they compared the 802N to the 801 Matrix. You might want to see if you can track down a re-print from a local B&W dealer or better yet take a pair home and audition t... |
