| Tube power for B&W PM1 I bought them....I've had Wilsons, Magnepans etc, but these things are so damn lovely:O) 90 watts tube power is definately adequate. | |
| B&W PM1 I heard them and bought them on the spot...got the stands free plus no tax:O) I judge things on merit and not by a pre-determined bias. | |
| The best CD Player for the money Thanks buddy:O) Enjoy! | |
| The best CD Player for the money Denon DCD A100 for $1499 from Music Direct is a tremendous 2 channel bargain! | |
| Modwright sony xa5400 vs Modwright Oppo 95 Your welcome Anonumephisto:O) | |
| Modwright sony xa5400 vs Modwright Oppo 95 Not better, but a really great bargain and built like a brick sh_t house (5year warranty)! I have never said anything bad about the Modwright XA5400 I owned, nor did I claim my NAD superior...just a great bargain. For the record, my Sony had relia... | |
| Modwright sony xa5400 vs Modwright Oppo 95 I'll make this simple...the Denon DCD A100 is one of the finest SACD/CD players I have ever owned. It cost me $1499 new from Music Direct on closeout special (msrp $2500). It is the equal of just about anything available build wise as well...dead ... | |
| VAC / Wilson cables I comprendo just fine Afeil...for example, the two attacks in this thread alone speak volumes for how very small a person you are vs your presumed understanding of all things audio. As I've said before, it is better to have offered an honest opini... | |
| VAC / Wilson cables Not a shill (no affiliation wt MIT), just upfront and honest about my preferences. The funny part is a Stealth Cable dealer (and representative of other various gear) pretending to be a neutral voice of reason. I ask people to try before you buy..... | |
| VAC / Wilson cables Not all networks are created equal! I have vast experience as well over many systems/technologies. Synergy matters and results are dependant on music bias, room and component matching. Some non-networked cables may find a place in the mix and in c... | |
| VAC / Wilson cables I owned similiar equipment and many cable brands, including Transparent Reference MM2 level cables. I love the same music and have found the latet MIT cables to vastly outperform the Transparent cables. MIT offers a truly fleshed out, clear, dynam... | |
| Power Cords--Your Preference? I also had a hard time finding the right power cord for my front end....owned many types over the years including the MIT AC2. The winner was Audioquest NRG-3(discontinued) and NRG-5(current wt dbs). Economical and world class. | |
| Best small speakers? Alot of great choices, but I have returned to Totem more than any other brand for the way they move me emotionaly. Even my Watt/Puppy 6's, Maggie 3.6s, Dynaudio C4's etc.. were not as expressive and engaging. Totem speakers have a unique way of de... | |
| Mini Maggie System hurts to listen to As a former Maggie owner (Lover), take my advice and get get your money back. It aint worth the headache, time or $$$ involved to make a Maggie sound acceptable. | |
| Balanced to RCA interconnect--is it beneficial? No, as it is not a balanced circuit unless you are going Balanced to Balanced. The gear and how it was engineered determines your success rate with RCA or XLR connections. |
