| Surround Sound Processor Pre-Amp Performance Here I am hawking Bryston again. They should put me on the payroll.I would recommend putting Bryston's SP1.7 on your short list of auditions.I love mine.I have also heard and liked Classe, Sunfire, and Krell. But my ears preferred the Bryston in m... | |
| Monster Power conditioners. Anyone using one? Geez guys tell it how ya feel why dont ya.I use a HTS3600, it made a noticable improvement in the noise floor. My main amp plugs directly into the wall. Only my Pre, sources, DAC, Sub controller, TV, SAT, etc make use of the HTS3600. I plan on try... | |
| Putting Hi-Fi gear in a mid-fi system -- HELP Theta has fantastic service. They just calibrated, tested, and lowered my output, on my DAC(DSPro Basic I). All for a mere $100.00.Give Theta an email. Fast response with reasonable turnaround for such a low price modification.I love my DAC, but t... | |
| Bryston owners: What speakers are you using? SP1.7/4B-ST to B & W CDM-9NTsPretty good combo, I am looking to upgrade the speakers soon. Considering more B & Ws, Silverline, and Dynaudio, as a start. | |
| hardwood floors and spikes http://www.audioadvisor.comA product called Quadraspires, $19.95 for four. Located in Isolation components.I use them under my spikes on hardwood, I also placed two way removable tape on the bottom and stuck some black felt, so I can easily move t... | |
| Sound Card with External DAC I use a SB Audigy II, which has 3.5mm s/pdif digital out, with an adapter (3.5mm mono to mono RCA), run to a Theta DSPro Basic DAC. It sounds very nice. Much, much better than the analog outs from the sound card.Many sound cards use this 3.5mm s/p... | |
| Classe SSP30 upgrade to MKII? PLII is pretty awesome. With a dynamic and clean audio signal PLII can really enhance your HT experience. Digital cable or any of the Satelite TV services will do. I use PLII more than I thought I would.DTS Neo6 is just as awesome. IMO. In music m... | |
| Paradigm 100 v.3 – B&W 804 dilemma… please help I agree with both Ohlala and Foreverhifi.I listen to a lot of Classical as well and the B & W's do a great job. (I use CDM-9NTs)It is curious that the B & W's are lower priced there, while the Paradigms are inflated. Seems that the distanc... | |
| Budget balanced IC recommendations Thanks once again for all your help.I am going to extend my audition of the Harmonic Tech. Pro-silway IIIs. I really like them. When I try some others I will post here or maybe start a new thread. | |
| Paradigm 100 v.3 – B&W 804 dilemma… please help Not much difference from CDM-9NTs to N804, to my ear anyway.I auditioned Studio 100s vs CDM-9NTs. B & W won by a wide margin, the gap would only be wider with the N804s.My preference is 2 channel music performance though.For the cost of one pa... | |
| Surround processor recommendations I just bought a new pre/pro, I listen to 80/20 music/HT.I auditioned Bryston Sp1.7, B & K ref50, Classe SSP30, Krell Showcase, and before my last pre/pro purchase(Rotel RSP-976) I had auditioned Sunfire, Rotel, Acurus, and Aragon.In 2 channel ... | |
| High End Audio Equipment, Status Symbol? Status symbol? Nope, to little recognition. Labeling someone a "status seeker" is cynical at best and is usually just a weak attempt to compensate for the "Labelers" inability to obtain the so-called "status symbols." | |
| Budget balanced IC recommendations All right I know no one mentioned them but.....Harmonic Technology Pro-silway mkIII, they sound really good...although a little out of budget at $350.00What do you guys think about these?In my system they sound tight and articulate with bass, very... | |
| Additional amplification? I have a very similar setup.Yes a good 2 channel amp will make a difference. Especially if you have a good 2 channel capable Pre/Pro.I would suggest, if a new amp is the primary goal at the moment, putting all that you can torward that. I use a Br... | |
| Bryston Vs Theta Those are the exact speakers I plan on upgrading too.Well I use a Bryston 4B-ST with a SP-1.7, I love the 1.7 for 2 channel music. Bt your question is on amps right. I have not listened to the Dreadnaught at home. But from what I have heard it is ... |
