| Need help for a replacement of my Levinson 33H I don't think anything will necessarily be better but definitely different & maybe more or less to your liking. At the level you are at any change is a change in taste more than anything else. I am not a Levinson fan & find that sometimes ... | |
| Is the SACD Format Flawed? I love SACD on my EMM labs equipment. A big improvement over CD. How does SACD compare to CD on your APL player? For me I don't want to listen to CDs on the EMM. SACDs are very close to "perfect" in many ways provided it is a great recording. Most... | |
| Tone arm cable for SME V I use harmonic technology. Great price & a huge improvement over the VDH cable. I also heard about rewiring the internal tonearm cable. I hear it can make a huge improvement. If you do that you can go with a single cable from cartridge to phon... | |
| Simon Yorke S9 with a Schroeder arm ??? A few people I know w. Simon Yorke tables have tried different tonearms. They all ended up using the Yorke arm in the end. I didn't listen with them when they did the comparison, just letting you know what I was told. Raul just reinforces that opi... | |
| Martin logan vs. B&W Both posters above said it all. One other thing to consider is that B&W require a lot of power and it should be solid state. Martin Logans love tube power, although solid state will sound very good. B&Ws will be easier to set up in the roo... | |
| Suprateks with Remote Owners - Help I called Home Theatre when I had a problem a while ago. They advised using 5 inches between the remotes for programing. They were helpful on the phone. I have mine working great now for the most part.I would also call Supra what codes they used. T... | |
| Anybody tried EMM DCC2 into preamp? I have been comparing the AA MkII to the EMM DAC 6e, w. APL SACD 1000 transport into a Placette Active preamp. I am using Elrod EPS-2S on most components. What I find is that the body on the EMM gear in SACD is fabulous. You are truly there. Every... | |
| Tonearm for Nottingham Spacedeck Nottingham is voiced w. the Nottingham arms. The latest spacearm is supposed to rival the Anna arm at 3 times the price. I have a hyperspace w. SME V & love the combination. The arm will ultimately depend more on your cartridge than your turnt... | |
| Worst remote nomination... Purchase a home theater master remote for $300 on the internet. It will solve all your problems. I have one remote with amazing buttons, backlighting, full programability w. macros and works all over the house as it is both IR & RF bassed. You... | |
| Wilson Audio, Talon, Rockport and B&W It will depend on the type of music you listen to, how you listen (loud or low, sitting in the sweet spot etc) and on the remainder of your equipment. I had very good sound w. N801s but changed to WP7s. I changed my entire system to creat a new sy... | |
| Is there a best cartridge track force gauge? I bought a 0.01 gm scale here on auction for $40.00. I checked it with calibration weights I have from my diamond scales which weight to an accuracy of 0.005 of a gram. The scale was off by 0.01 of a gram at different points but mostly accurate. I... | |
| Do You Remember Your First CD Player? Mine was a Yamaha w. oversampling 2 times. One of the first. I sold it & bought a Maganavox 630 I think. Then I bought the big heavy Marantz. That was a very musical player. All bought in the 1980s. Fond memories. Sold my Yamaha to finance the... | |
| Do you keep your EMM DAC 6e on? Frank,Using the Elrod EPS-2S on the dac. I haven't tried playing with it but it is so much better than anything else I have used. The EMM does have better detail & bass. Just misses the Audio Aero presentation on CD. Interconnect are transpare... | |
| Do you keep your EMM DAC 6e on? Here it goes. I have been doing a lot of listening. Hands down a great SACD is much better than any CD on the EMM or on my Audio Aero. But here is the twist, I find that on 60% of CDs the Audio Aero sounds better (or different) than the EMM. I wan... | |
| Do you keep your EMM DAC 6e on? Thanks for all the advise.I have been keeping the transport off as it gets hot as well although I didn't mention it. In fact the cds/ sacds get hot. The DAC I leave on & it gets hotter than the transport when just left on. It also is much hott... |
