| DAC/Transport to a one box CD - need suggestions After trying many, I'd say your best bet is the Resolution Audio Opus 21. Suffice to say that this is the best digital I've heard (I haven't heard the EMM gear) and is engaging, detailed and nuanced all at once. I love it.This however is a 2-box p... | |
| "Upgrade" C-J MF2500A to Pass X250, SimAudio, Or? Cellorover-A different preamp, really? Just curious- what do you think would work better in that setup than the Cary SLP98?I don't own the Cary, but it is one damn fine preamp. | |

| FedEx, and HELL VTL to the rescue Yep. Good point. | |
| FedEx, and HELL VTL to the rescue Well, that's one story, and it ended very nicely. Mine didn't end quite as well.I shipped 2 speakers, each in an identical box, to a nice fellow in St. Louis. Both were scanned in back to back in Memphis at the Fed-Ex hub. My buyer received one, b... | |

| Digital Amps - Your opinions and why so few? Just my personal experience with a good digital amp:I owned, for awhile, a Bel Canto EVO 200.2. It was an absolutely wonderful amp for the money, with firm bass control and an amazing degree of refinement versus the Musical Fidelity Amp I had befo... | |
| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? Kr4-Please understand...I don't own Salons. The hyperbole was launched by the guy referring to Salons as a PA system. My point was that THAT was a bit over the top. | |
| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? Salons sound like a PA system?I'm outta this thread! | |
| Freezer Cryoed Cables... Why the references to Slappy? He hasn't even posted in this thread yet. Frankly, I'm hoping he does, because his response will probably be the most entertaining yet.Come on Slappy- say something! | |
| Have you tried any room treatments? Though expensive, it's very hard to top ASC Tube Traps. Used wisely, they make a tremendous difference in room response, image sharpness and bass definition.I even tried removing the ASC traps, and bought a Tact RCS 2.0. Though the Tact is an inge... |
