| Amp for Dali Hellicon 400 mk2 I tried them with Rowland, Primare and Conrad Johnson with either Cardas Golden Reference or Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval 8, so I don't think there was any problem there. I heard depth but no character. I don't understand how them room did this... | |
| Amp for Dali Hellicon 400 mk2 I'll go by the Dali suite at RMAF to give them one more try. Maybe there was something about the room I heard them in. (That room works with lots of other speakers, but...)Dave | |
| Amp for Dali Hellicon 400 mk2 Mike60, which SS amp are you using?Dave | |
| Help - Need Preamp under 5K for Class D amps The Jeff Rowland Design Group Capri will do an exceptional job, well within your budget. It's as resolving and involving as you'll hear. Look for GuidoCorona's review elsewhere on A'gon.Dave | |
| Review: Sumiko Speaker Set Speaker No problem.I'm looking forward to your report of your experience.Dave | |
| Review: Sumiko Speaker Set Speaker Great write-up Treitz3. The only change I would make is the 18" rule from the rear wall. That's going to vary from speaker to speaker as well as the wall shape. In my case, the rear of my Vienna Acoustic Beethoven Baby Grands are 16" from the rear... | |
| Playback Designs MPS-5 CD/SACD Player Mike makes a great point. Before the MPS-5 I listend to LP and SACD whenever given a choice over CD. Now that preference is almost neutralized. (I still prefer SACD slightly). My vinyl set up isn't anywhere near the level of Mike's, but very nice.... | |
| Holographic imaging Tvad said:"Now, having just owned an ARC Reference 3 preamp, I agree it does not create a holographic image. Nothing as compared to the Atma-Sphere MP-1 or Lamm LL2 Deuxe preamps I owned."So you're saying that you prefer the Atma-Sphere and Lamm t... | |
| Holographic imaging Tvad, this moving of the image to in front of the speakers and way outside the speakers it typcially achieved with out of phase signals or room interactions. "I Robot", DSOTM and "In Rainbows" are recording examples that should fill a 180-degree i... | |
| Modern day female jazz recommendations 08-15-08: Robertd said:"holly cole, sue mc corkle, amy winehouse"Wow, I agree that all are great singers; however, one actually committed suicide and one is doing it slowly. Holly may not be self-destructive, but she's certainly focused on the dow... | |
| New Roland Continuum 250 vs. Simaudio I-7 Tomcy6, your point is well taken. The sonic signature of the C-J is clear and it does strike you in the face on the first listen, BUT it doesn't cover the details, so the signature fades from the consciousness with long-term listening. Going from ... | |
| Playback Designs MPS-5 CD/SACD Player Yeah, and be sure to bring your own music. | |
| Playback Designs MPS-5 CD/SACD Player Ronnjay, that's correct, AND you can hear the PD in the Soundings room, through a Rowland/Vienna Acoustics system. Also, at Soundings, you can compare the PD to the Marantz 7S1. Soundings is a dealer for Marantz and Sounds Real is a dealer for PD.... | |
| New Roland Continuum 250 vs. Simaudio I-7 Well, of course, Mrt would indeed likely prefer the warmer, thicker sounding of the CA-200 to the Rowland. I have to agree with you 100% on this one, Bill. However, I do think, in this case it's not a system dependancy, it's an absolute difference... | |
| New Roland Continuum 250 vs. Simaudio I-7 I've got a financial interest in the Rowland and the CA-200, since I own both, so Bill's point is well taken. I'd like to sell the CJ, but my need to be honest keeps me from describing it as equal to the C500 Rowland. Thanks Bill, for pointing tha... |
