| Best PRE AMPLIFIER / AMPLIFIER for DIVA UTOPIA The BEST? My guess is that for two channel the Wavac SH-833 would probably sound nice and bring out all that the Diva's can deliver. Might be a little overkill but it would be about the BEST. | |
| Shelter 501 mk 2/ ZYX R100H I have a Shelter 501 mk 2, I like it a lot, very dynamic, fast, great extension both with bass and highs without sounding bright or fatiguing. I would also like to hear others comments however. On some classical music I prefered the Koetsu black t... | |
| What is the best CD player under $2000 ? There are a few Used very nice Arcam FMJ 33 and 36 for sale here on audiogon, I recommend the Arcam FMJ very highly. A very musical enjoyable CDP. The many very positive reviews are spot on. | |
| Phono pre-amp for Shelter 501 MK I am extremely happy with my Eastern Electric Minimax phono. Especially after adding some NOS tubes that I got from Vintage tubes. I think that it is a great match for the 501. I think that it does work best with MC where the step up transformers ... | |
| Harbeth SHL5 vs Dynaudio Special 25 vs... Minotauro, I have not heard of the Leben but a quick internet search and I found them. WoW! what a beautiful amp. Have you listened to one? I would like to know where. If that amp sounds even close to how it looks the combination with the Harbeth ... | |
| Harbeth SHL5 vs Dynaudio Special 25 vs... Minotauro's response is why it is so important to listen to the speakers yourself. My Dynaudio's are not at all fatigueing. I have spent some nice quiet winter days in listening sessions from 6am to well past midnight spinning disk after disk and ... | |
| Harbeth SHL5 vs Dynaudio Special 25 vs... This is pretty strange, I have the Dynaudio Spedial 25 and use the Belles 21A and reference 150A amp, though I primarily listen to my, also English, Nottingham Spacedeck. I have listened to the Harbeth as well and it is a wonderful speaker. Perhap... | |
| High end turntables Why? 2 tonearms I am hoping that Rauliruegas joins this as he might have more experience than most. I have considered adding a second arm and cartridge, perhaps a Sumiko Celebration or Koetsu for classical music. But I am torn a little as to which would be better... | |
| belles 21a preamp Mine came with a 5 year warranty, contact David Belles if it is transferable. Look on the manufacturer web site for some reviews. Also, Blue Mountain Audio in Texas is a dealer for belles as well as Usher, I see you use these speakers, and might b... | |
| belles 21a preamp I have the Auricap version of the 21A and it is a wonderful amp. The 21A actually comes with mullards, I got a new set from upscale and they are identicle to what came with the amp. I just got a set of NOS RCA's from vintage tubes, (circa 1950's) ... | |
| If boulder is tops what is second tier? I spent some time with the Boulder phono as well as amps. They are really well built and have an abundance of really nice aluminum. They sound really nice too, but so do a lot of other things that cost a lot less. I think that there are more than ... | |
| Thinking about selling my CD collection = MP3 Nsgarch, it is complicated and can be very frustrating. It is illegal to copy copywritten material for financial gain or to deprive the owner of the material of financial gain, thus incurring damage. The person who buys your used CD does not reimb... | |
| Thinking about selling my CD collection = MP3 If you sell the CD's then legally you cannot play the music you downloaded. Falls into the same category of borrowing CD's to download. I know that this may not bother some, but it is one of the reasons to hold onto the collection. Another would b... | |
| I have posted my system to Virtual System Nice system, you seem to be of the camp that the source is the most important, nice turntable. What other speakers have you listened to, monitors in particular? I have heard many good things about the silverlines | |
| Upgrade Denon 103 R to Shelter 501 II? Springbok 10, I have a Nottingham Spacedeck with the Shelter 501 and use the Eastern Electric phono stage and it is a wonderfull combination. I have heard great things about the Denon but not at the 800-1200 level. I did listen to the Sumiko Black... |
