| jolida jd100 and rca command tubes Sometime back I compared RCA blackplate 5751s, the EH 12ax7s, and EH goldpin 5751s. I preferred the EH goldpin 5751s to everything (there were many others) except Telefunken 12ax7 smoothplates. For less than 40 bucks I strongly recommend trying EH... | |
| El Chupacabra Cables, silver interconnects ChalupaCabra, mmmmm. Delicioso con Cholula! | |
| Soliloquy 6.2i vs VS vr4jr , Zu Druid & Usher 6371 Ahem, I really like my Soliloquy 6.2s (non i). Thats all I'm sayin'. | |
| Can the RA Opus 21 rock better than a Wadia? I'd take an Opus 21 over a 301 anyday. I prefer the RA21 over the 302 and by a safe margin to boot. I preferred the the Jolida 100 over the 302 but... That was highly system dependent and I had pain stakenly chosen my (emphasis on MY) favorite tub... | |
| Krell Resolution 2's VS Polk Audio LSi15 I am not sure it's the same tweeter. It may be similar but I would figure that these two manufacturers spec them differently (at the very least). | |
| Bryston vs. PS Audio I have been very happy with a Bryston 4B-SST paired with Soliloquy 6.2s. I had an ST model before and preferred the SST FWIW.Is the Bryston an end all amp? No. If you can pony up a smidge more, go for a used Pass Labs X250. Now thats an amp I coul... | |
| ADVICE Please: Best Processor under $3K? EAD is popular too. Nevertheless, I prefer the Bryston SP-1.7 over them all so far! (The Bryston's great 2 channel performance wins me over)With 90% Movies you may prefer something else altogether. I am thinking the Lexicon. It has always impresse... | |
| How far apart are your speakers? Hmm, lemme get the tape....Room 119 by 140 inches.Speakers (woofer center to woofer center) 51 inchs apart. Situated along short wall.Baffle to rear wall 38 inches. Center of woofer to side wall about 34 inches. | |
| Processor for Av passthrough Oh, I see, Receivers and well, um, yeah, the ACT-3 is good choice. | |
| Virtual Dynamics I just felt like gushing a little. They really are working quite well in my system. I'm sure they arent for everyone, taking into account synergy and taste, but I am really enjoying these. I even got up this morning and had a short session of Jazz... | |
| Processor for Av passthrough James, you really dont want to pass your good 2 channel through a Pre/Pro. More direct is better. Thats why a lot of the newer 2 channel preamps have a pass throught built into them. I would recommend looking for a 2 channel preamp which allows yo... | |
| full system by truck ,hope it sounds ok???? Now thats a Truck I wouldnt mind seeing in the Grocery Store parking lot! I bet thats going to be a great system. Come back and let us know how the VAC and the VS's sound together. I have been interested in trying out the VAC Avatar for myself. | |
| Best processor that is excellent for 2 Ch music Yeah but for 2 channel, Sgower's option has potential. IMO better potential than a lot of Pre/Pro's offer. At the same time, I do agree with Flrnlamb that most decoding done inside the player will be compromised to some degree. Of course to what d... | |
| Wadia 301 disc read error I had read errors on a 302s brief stay in my system, but to be fair, I have observed that all of the better CDPs have read errors. Presumptiously I would say the proprietary software, but I could be wrong. Its stay was brief only because it was on... | |
| new cd player for $1500.00? Save a little money and try a Jolida JD-100, sounds like a perfect fit. Tubes can make a big difference on this machine and it has great resale. Certainly worth a try. If you dont mind used (I realize you said "new" but I will assume you mean new ... |
