| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre That's where I'll listen Kawika, but I'd rather wait for a few a couple of hundred more hours on it and also hear it in battery powered mode. Hopefully the programming will be complete in a few days. Until the firmware is settled, I think we need ... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre We stopped by Duke's on Sunday. It was ready for prime time by then.Dave | |
| RMAF 2008 - Your impressions,... Jazdoc remined me of Sound Smith's strain guage and moving iron cartridges. I actually bought The Voice, Peter's top moving iron choice. Not only was the vinyl very impressive, but little two-way minis gave a big musical sound.An extra treat for m... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Unfortunately there were a number of times I entered the Soundings suite and Rod was not playing "music". Someone brought in the soundtrack to "My Cousin Vinny" which was very impressive with bass dynamics and effects, but not musical at all. When... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Kawika, all I can say at this point is that it sounded very quiet and musical in the 312/Dei Musik system. At one point there were about 8 people in the room and Rod switched from the Marantz SA7 to the Playback Designs everyone immediately recogn... | |
| RMAF 2008 - Your impressions,... MrT, Sound Labs had several hundred square feet of electrostatics filling a large room. They used Emm digital to demonstrate a recreation of a drum and bugle corp on a football field. It was very impressive indeed. I've heard that sound from both ... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Ah Clio09, I see you have the Audiokenesis speakers. I thought that Duke had one of the best sounding rooms at the show. Not only that, Duke is a great gentleman here on A'gon and in person.I DO think that Atmas colored his system every so slightl... | |
| Spectron Musician III - Can anyone comment on it? Yes, room 1004 was not great, but I credit that to the setup of the SPs. It was very easy to hear that the Spectrons were doing a great job and certainly not grossly colored as suggested by Argyro.Dave | |
| Spectron Musician III - Can anyone comment on it? Argyro said:"I really dont like this amp. Except tha fact that it can drive any speaker on the market, the timbre it produces is the fakest timbre I have heard IN MY SYSTEM.Actually in a different system that I knew its componenents quite well."I ... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre It's really too early to evaluate, other than to say it's very promising.Dave | |
| Vienna Die Muzick flagship speakers I can believe that the bass response is in the 20hz range after a couple of listens.I wouldn't get hung up about toe-in. These guys know what they're doing with set up.Dave | |
| Vienna Die Muzick flagship speakers Great report Guido. I really have nothing to add. I've had more time with the Muzicks, but nothing inconsistant has happened in my three listening session.The pleasant surprise was how well the Marantz CDP performed, stone cold out of the shipping... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Guido, is it time for me to run over????Unfortunately this Criterion will be cold out of the box. Maybe by the end of the weekend it'll be getting close to ready.BTW, we had a first listen to Marantz's S7 reference CD/SACD player last night. Cold,... | |
| Amp for Dali Hellicon 400 mk2 Can you cut and paste the part that signals to you that it's a mismatch for the Dali? I don't see that there. Keep in mind, he was using the MBL speakers. I think that's the last set of speakers that you use as a reference for testing amps. The C-... | |
| Holographic imaging Mapman said:"I don't think the Corvette/Pinto analogy holds well in this case."Yeah, maybe Bill owned a Pinto once and just wanted to use that comment in a post.Dave |
