| Balanced usage with Opus 21 Phil, you're right. I studied my papers closely and it appears, that unlike many similar balanced devices, the Opus sums both DACs for the unbalanced output. My apologies and good call. | |
| Balanced usage with Opus 21 I believe that the Balanced outs use 2 DACs per channel and the RCA outs use only 1 DAC per channel. Much like the CD-55.One could surmise that 4 is better than 2 ...but that isnt always so! Having said that, I prefer the balanced outs over the RC... | |
| Good Preamp with Digital Input Jeffjazz, thats a good call. That DAC/Pre looks very interesting to me as well. | |
| Your vote: Most Useless Audio Adjective Alright, how are we supposed to sell anything without it being minty, tubelike and muscial! ...geez what a bunch of Prats! =) | |
| DAC for Olive musica I see ...and thats a good plan IMO. You get more bang for your buck on the used market, and if the DAC doesnt suit you, or if you want to upgrade, it wont be very difficult or costly. | |
| DAC for Olive musica What about the Olive Opus? It's supposed to have a high end DAC built in. I think Jeff Kalt, of Resolution Audio, had a hand in it's design? | |
| What pre to use with Vons and Bryston 2B-SST? Good for you! I am a bit of a Bryston fan myself (especially the Amps and Processors) they're darned neutral with good resolution and great bass. Oh yeah, and power to spare! I'm with Tvad, I bet the BAT and the Bryston have good synergy. Keep gri... | |
| Amp for B&W Sig 805 Off the top of my head...If you like neutral highs, excellent midrange detail, deep and articulate bass, try a Pass Labs .5 series amp.If you prefer your highs a little less forward, awesome midrange, and similarly great bass, oh yeah a little war... | |
| Is Analysis Plus giving away free samples? I just sold a pair of very new balanced Copper Ovals for exactly half of what I paid for them. Its what the used market will bear more than anything else. | |
| what else-$$ ????? Gunbei, Albert dances? Suhwheet! ...and I got a roll of "Ones" all saved up!Schumacher tried to pull a fast one. He made an error and tried to capatalize on it. I was wondering with the Qualy system this year, who was going to be the first to try ... | |
| what else-$$ ????? Topless Bars and Formula One DooDads! | |
| speaker cables and IC's I agree with Philo, and... often a well chosen used cable will bring 90% (or better) of its original price. How sweet is that! Try out cables at 10% (or less) of their used price.Long Live A'gon! | |
| cdp variable vol with ht pass Audio Aero Capital or Prima DAC with analog inputs would work (unity gain). | |
| How to warm up cold-sounding Rotel/B&W system? I suggest leaving your CD player going all day at low volumes. Just set the "repeat" function and head off to work. At least a hundred hours to break in that tweeter and woofer. Or maybe more. I recommend Harmonic Technology Truthlinks as your int... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Evita, I agree. Its all subjective. My response would certainly have changed a few times =) |
