| Classe ca-2100 vs ca-2300 Just a response my percieved strengths of each speaker and musical taste. I find the Verity much smoother and engaging in the mid range and this is the strength of the 2200. The Wilsons I have heard have a little more energy top and bottom and aga... | |
| Classe ca-2100 vs ca-2300 I have the CA-2200 and did have a CT-2300 delivered to my house for a week of listening. The amp was broken in and the CT-2300 is the same as the CA-2300 but different cosmetics. For my ears and in my system I prefered the CA-2200. The 2200 is bia... | |
| Jbl Project Array 1400 vs dynaudio c1 speakers I used to own the Dynaudio C1, wonderful speaker. I also heard the 1400, I think you would be moving a step down. I did not care for the 1400 and the dealer who had it sent them back. Now, in the right room and with the right taste they may be ver... | |
| AMPS - the Ayre V5-xe and the Classe CA 2200 I have heard the Ayre but not enough to form an opinion on sound other than it matted well with a pair of Wilson Sophia II's. I like the Ayre philosophy of supporting thier equipment long after model upgrades. I do have the Classe and have compare... | |
| Does anyone "throw away" Lp's ? Picked up a mint deep groove blue note "the three sounds" at goodwill about 5 years ago, jacket and vinyl are pristine. Expensive though, 1.50 US dollars, but that back when a dollar was worth more eh? | |
| Amy Winehouse.RIP Her behavior really turned me off so I did not know her music very well. When I did hear it, ( I didn't know who was singing ) I was very impressed. I would have really liked to have heard her perform clean and sobber. TheSoundHouse, are you reall... | |
| Decware or Eastern Electric Phono Stage? I have not heard the Decware but had a Eastern Electric in my system for a few years and had the opportunity to compare it with quiet a few other phono stages. I loved the EE and would highly recommend it, for medium output moving coil only. It di... | |
| Naim CDX2 'new release' vs 'previous release' I used to have one of the last production "older" CDX2's and did have a chance to compare to one of the new ones. I did not notice any differece nor did the owner of the new model. If I had a choice between the two for the same or similar money I ... | |
| McIntosh MA6300 There are going to be a lot of ways to answer your question. I would recommend looking at your overall budget for a system and then consider if you want to make upgrades at a later time. One advantage of MAC gear is they tend to hold their values ... | |
| Nottingham spacedeck motor - driving me crazy Are you changing the position of the belt to go to 33 1/3? Really it would be impossible for the table to only spin at one RPM as the pully has two different diameters, the smaller one for 33 1/3 and the larger one for 45 rpm. When moving the belt... | |
| Have 300b MB want a killer pair of Hi-Eff speakers Magic Ultimate II should do the left hand piano keys well. | |
| Anybody in Denver go to Audio Unlimited yesterday? I knew that John passed away, very sad news. I did not know that they were closing shop. I visited there twice on trips to Colorado and enjoyed both visits. John and AU will be missed. | |
| Anybody in Denver go to Audio Unlimited yesterday? Your post is a bit vague, "as they close a long time Pillar of the Audio Community." Who are they closing? | |
| vpi cleaner I have used a 16.5 for about 6 years, same machine, cleaned about 1500 lps in that time. Still looks and works like new. I have thought about going to the 17 with fan for the ability for more cleaning before the machine heats up and a bit quieter ... | |
| Music Room and Floods Thanks for the ideas. My insurance guy states that the maximum coverage for all things related to water seepage, etc. is $10,000, this includes repairs and personal property. My basement is only about 3 1/2 feet deep, the rest is above ground so r... |
