| What makes up an Gs5556 you make a good point. Midfi has become much better and to buy by highest price will more often lead you astray than not. On the other hand I would be hard pressed to take all those Stereophile Class A components seriously. As Albert has po... | |
| The closest approach...really Hi MrTennis,We always, in our "aesthetic endevor", end up with more than just "some level of inaccuracy to the real thing" because even our best systems with the best software rarely come even close to this benchmark. So, things being as they are,... | |
| What makes up an Albert, well done! To my mind you set the right accents just where they belong and as you so rightly say, the balance between resolution and bandwidth and forgetting all about sound and being drawn into the music is the more difficult the more rev... | |
| The closest approach...really Ggavetti,of course human ears differ, so the subjectivity trap is difficult to be avoided, the difference however is not as huge as some try to make us believe. This is especially true, if you, together with a group of audiophile friends have esta... | |
| The closest approach...really Good point Newbee, however mo matter if it is written in two or just in one word, I thought it would work nicely both ways when I read it. I only wished there would be a little less noise when in play. But then I must grudgingly admit, without it ... | |
| The closest approach...really Ggavetti, this might interest you:http://www.regonaudio.com/Gradient%20SW-63%20Subwoofer.html | |
| The closest approach...really LOL, thanks Trelja. It needed that. | |
| The closest approach...really Generally the saga goes, that if tubes are used with the Quads, the subs would perform best with SS. Actually blending solid state driven subs with tube driven stators is very difficult indeed. It is much easier to use tubes also for the Gradient ... | |
| The closest approach...really Mrtennis,A seamless blend can be achieved. It depends on the room and on careful placement. | |
| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps Hello Tom,HH sure does. I am glad you agree. Thank you for your additional information. I'll go an researching. I suspect, my Wavac phono pre kindly glosses over the shortcomings you mentioned, without being euphonic though, as was the case with t... | |
| The closest approach...really No, to my ears it cannot. However, before I switched to Sound Labs, I replaced the Quad 57s with the Quad 63s. I wanted just a tad more SPL. All the same, I still maintain, that the marriage of Gradient and Quad is a match made in heaven!Happy, jo... | |
| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps I was quite fascinated with what Trcnetmsncom had to say about his perception of a high end flaw in the MA-2s. Tom's likening this flaw to the high end rendering of the Martin Logan CLS 2Z made clear to me what he meant, because I auditioned those... | |
| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps Spencer has said it all. I wholeheartedly agree. | |
| Funniest agon screen names Morgenholz with its physiological connotation | |
| Amazing Solo Piano Recordings Audphile, I only have the Hyperion, I'm afraid, so I cannot say anything about The Russian recording. Thanks for the hint though, I'll go and hunt for it. The Russian is an earlier take I would think, unless Hyperion just bought the rights for it.... |
