| Is ARC Updating/Discontinuing the DSi200? I heard an early version of the ARC DSi200 driving a Magnepan 1.7 with an Ayre cdp as the source using all Kimber Kables, no power filtering or conditioning was present. To say I was disappointed is a huge understatement! Might have been the worst... | |
| Advice on buying a used speaker up to 3k Freemand-Look for a used pair of Focal 826w/836w the size of your room will determine which is best. | |
| Best Integrated, period. With the correct system synergy a Rowland integrated is tough to beat if your goal is the best price/performance ratio. | |
| How do you respond to this question? The flaws of vinyl are less offensive then the silver (mini) frisbee!!! | |
| "Famous Blue Raincoat".. Frogman great post(6-14)! Analog vs. digital is NOT as simple as good vs. evil. I really enjoy many early digital recordings made on the 32-track 3M system. The Nightfly and Swing of Delight(Carlos Santana) are perfect examples. Are these perfect ... | |
| A Pro-Ject RM-10.1 or a VPI Prime I wish you would consider the Rega RP8. | |
| Best Integrated, period. Kclone-The Mac-7000 had mixed reviews, how much better can the MA 8000 be? FWIW I never heard a Mac integrated I wanted. Trilogy Audio Systems(UK based/made)has released the 925(hybrid). Appears to have unlimited/unknown potential and at around $1... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Macdadtexas-Great choices!!! Were the STP/Soundgarden original pressings? How would you rate the sound quality of these 2 "grunge" vinyl recordings? | |
| Is Vinyl Worth It Dealing with the ticks/pops/surface noise/echos IMO is age dependent. Many audiophiles under 45 grew up with cassettes and then went on to cd's never becoming accustomed with vinyls shortcomings. | |
| First in line... Infection-It all depends on system synergy which phono cartridge is best. The Transfiguration Axia S has IMO the highest ceiling of all the cartridges mentioned. | |
| Is Vinyl Worth It It depends on how much time, effort, passion and money your willing to put into vinyl? I was "vinyl absent" for over 15 years, during that time I came close(several times) to buying a near entry level table but knew it was a waste of time and mone... | |
| My stereo isn't doing it for me. Need advice I don't think the CDP is the main culprit. Room acoustics, amp/speaker synergy and cable synergy should be the focus. Ascend and Tekton are not an upgrade(possible downgrade)from your current speakers. I've heard Vienna Acoustic speakers(Haydn SE?... | |
| My stereo isn't doing it for me. Need advice Have you tried NOT using the REL subwoofer? Since it's a very small room you could be overloading the room with bass. The Prima Luna might not be the best match for your trio of speakers. A leaner/faster sounding amp(Bryston 135-Krell 400ix-Primar... | |
| Mono Blocks for B&W 801 s3 Replacing a Krell KSA-250 with an Emotiva XPA-1L is similar to driving a vintage 80's Corvette to pedaling a rusty Huffy bicycle! C'Mon Man!!! | |
| Bladelius-Thor mk3/Leema-Tucana 2/Norma IPA-140? I would like to add another Euro integrated amplifier to the mix, the Gamut DI 150. My research has found that the DI 150's only weakness "could" be it's overly analytical and presents a 1st row type of soundstage. Since the Gamut has been produce... |
