| Jeff Rowland 201 or 501 for high current demands My Legacy/Coda Monobloc amps are said to have the ability to deliver 90 amps. I do have a dedicated 20 Amp circuit and am using shunyata power products. I am just kicking around the idea of changing amps, but whatever I get, I want to be able to d... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? I am not a fan of the "shootout" term. However I do like the concept albeit limited in scope, and I like knowing that others too suffer from DAC.Perhaps you cannot pick the more/most preferable player because of many of the reasons listed above. N... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Audio_girl, I completely agree with you regarding the SP1000. I owned the Integra version for some time and your observation is dead-on-the-money (I can't describe these things myself...but I know when something's missing). Ears, however, is a die... | |
| Anyone heard the Onkyo sp 1000 yet? Earz...So are you telling me I don't feel the way I feel about this player and that what I wrote is not my opinion?What part of my note did you not understand?We have crossed paths on this elsewhere. If anyone would like to bring a sp1000 or a DPS... | |
| Anyone heard the Onkyo sp 1000 yet? FWIW - I have had the Integra DPS 10.5 (very similar to the SP1000), the Meridian G98 and the DV-50 (as well as the DV-50S) all in my system at one time or another over a very short time period.My observations were somewhat different. I firmly bel... | |
| Jeff Rowland 201´s or Ayre V-5 X I too am curious about the 201s.How are they with current demanding speakers and low impedance draws?Dave | |
| Walker SST contact enhancer Rushton,Thanks for the info. As I said, I don't know anything about this stuff and am curious.Do you believe in the Nexgen and Eichmann theory?FWIW - I used the Mapleshade contact enhancer (similar to SST) and found that it created more problems a... | |
| Walker SST contact enhancer I haven't looked at your link yet, but how does that differ from what is being done by people using this stuff at the breaker box?Is it because a lot of current can be asked for at the power connections whereas that is not the case for signal wire... | |
| Bryston 3bsst Vs. Coda 11 A used Brytston is fairly low risk financially since many know it and they come and go on AudiogoN all the time. The Coda is less known, but those who want them...well they just want them.I replaced a 4B NRB with a Legacy Powerbloc2 (built by Coda... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Brian - Please go for it with whatever pieces you have available. That will mean fewer when the next couple of pieces come along for the next session (I don't like calling it a shootout).Tvad has a point though, if you don't hear differences right... | |
| Cable management help I am glad that link helped.Unless your PCs are shielded, it would probably be a good idea to keep them away from any signal wires. That's my guess anyway. I am far from an expert.Dave | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Because of discussions that have happened already throughout this thread (when it stays on topic) I would suggest the following:(1) APL modded Denon 3910(2) modified Esoteric DV-50 (Superclock 3)(3) EMMlabs transport and DAC(4) Esoteric X01(5) Son... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Brian,I would not presume to be the expert on such a matter. Only experience can really tell. The evaluations done in this thread are the first ones that have ever captured my interest. I think as you go through the day with the various "contender... | |
| Walker SST contact enhancer Than what's up with the Eichmann plugs and the new WTB RCA's. They go for a very small contact area.BTW - I am not being antagonistic. I know nothing about this stuff and am curious.Dave | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Reeling the thread back a moment, I get the impression there are many players in the queue for the next get-together. I really hope Tgun5's modified DV-50 makes it into the mix. In the spirit of this threads origin, it would be interesting to see... |
