| REGA DAC review This has to be one of the most analog sounding DACs that I have heard. One reviewer commented how much the DAC was voiced to sound like Rega TT or in other words how vinyl-like. I totally agree! Liquid, smooth, organic are words that come immediat... | |
| LFD III vs IV I've compared the LE3 to the NCSE and personally I prefer the LE3 for its musicality and illuminated sound. The NCSE sounds more Hifi-ish to my ears and fails to connect me emotionally to the music in the way the LE3 does. Of course this is my ear... | |
| New LFD Zero LE mkIV I own the LE3 and a friend lent me his NCSE. Personally, I prefer the LE3 to the NCSE. There is more of what Sam Tellig describes as the illuminated light from within. The NCSE is also very, very good but I found it too clinical for my taste! If t... | |
| Which floorstander to match Accuphase E-450? +1 for the harbeth SHL5 and Accuphase E-450 combo! I am using this very combination and find it a fabulous match! | |
| Integrated: Red Wine 30.2 vs Bryston B100 SST KhingsiongYou are absolutely right about synergy and somehow the Bryston B100 and the Harbeth synergise very well together! The B100's 100 watts is more than sufficient to drive the quite benign load of the Harbeths. Paradoxically, I feel that Bry... | |
| Integrated: Red Wine 30.2 vs Bryston B100 SST I have the Bryston B100 SST (with DAC and phono) driving Harbeth SHL5 and am very happy with the combo. I have not heard RWA gear but I have compared the Bryston B100 with the Accuphase E-450 and the Bryston held its own extremely well! If you d h... | |
| Gryphon Diablo or Accuphase E-450 Agreed, the E-550 is better sounding but it runs hot (class A). The E-450 has more power but sounds very. very good. | |
| Accuphase P450 v Bel Canto Evo 4 Gen 1 I have not heard the Bel Canto Evo 4 Gen 1 but I own both the Brston B100 SST and the Accuphase E-450. I like the E-450 much more and find that it draws music and makes me forget about audiophile terms. Its very listenable and musical! There is so... | |
| Gryphon Diablo or Accuphase E-450 I have just replaced my Bryston B100 SST withe an Accuphase E-450 and could not be happier! Its an awesome amplifier, really the best I think! Timbral accuracy is first rate! I would heartily recommend the Accuphase E-450. You won't be dissappointed! | |
| Integrated Amp DAC Naim Supernait? Bryston B100? I own a Bryston B100 with DAC and phono and feel that it has ended my search for an integrated amplifier! It is musically engaging and emotionally connects me with all genres of music, from classical to pop! I have listened to various systems (Reg... | |
| McCormack DNA-1- improvement over Bryston 3B NRB? I am a happy Bryston B100 Integrated owner!Although I like the McCormack DNA 0.5 (which Steve McCormack revised to A status), I feel that the Bryston is just as musical, if not more musical, than the McCormacks. When you throw in a built-in DAC an... | |
| Devore Super 8 speakers with WHAT cable? The Auditorium 23 cables in my system have been the best cables I have heard to date! Most natural sounding cables! Everything sounds so real and life-like! I especially like what it does to timbre, tone and decay of notes! I am glad I stumbled up... | |
| OK I'm sold on interconnects, now speaker cable? Heard that the Van Damme speaker cables are inexpensive but perform way beyond their price! Bryston uses these cables which says a lot! I am using Auditorium 23 SC (which cost me a bomb even tho' it was 2ndhand). Will try the Van Damme cables some... | |
| Anyone try McCormack DNA + Placette Passive? Ig316bI had the McCormack ALD-1 Rev A with the TKD stepped attenuator (top-of-the-line) which Steve fitted and can vouchsafe that the TKD is outstanding. At low volume, you lose none of the detail that you would enjoy at higher listening levels. | |
| Anyone try McCormack DNA + Placette Passive? Had the DNA 0.5 Rev A (now with my sister) paired to a Bent Audio NOH TVC. Very musical combo! |
