| Multi Channel SACD Hi dpphd,I have been using a stock 5400ES for several weeks while the seller of this MW version player was waiting on his new MW Marantz SA-8005 to arrive from MW.I don’t think that the MW improvements affect the HDMI output other than providing m... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Hi o,Do the best audio equipment designers use other manufacturers’ equipment as a benchmark for the sound of their own designs or it is live music? I don’t think that the best audio reproduction is that far away from the real thing. More likely t... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Hi Paul,Glad to help. I love cables too, but I found it hard to choose cabling with my room acoustics out of whack. I did a lot of research on room acoustical treatments and consulted with several vendors. It was going to cost a lot of money. The... | |
| What SS preamp compares to a tube preamp Your B&K amp is balanced with a differential input stage so it would mate very well with the fully-differentially balanced K-1xe. Put tubes in your digital front end and Yahtzee! | |

| Amp upgrade for Thiel CS 3.7 Hi Thieliste,I recommend that you seriously consider a Classe’ DR-9 (or two). You should be able to find a nice one for around $1k. Have the seller send it to Classe’ to install a refurb kit (new power transistors and critical caps). I have one th... | |
| Multi Channel SACD Hi junzhang10,Thanks for the recommendation. I will order soon.I too am a Thiel lover. Just sold my 2 2s to my best friend. Great speakers.The later Oppos (model 95 and 105) are really good universal players. I just bought a ModWright/Sony 5400ES ... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Fair enough, o.I apologize to you as it seems that I have diverted your intention of discussing/sharing electrical modifications to components away to other aspects of the hobby. I hope that you feel, as I do, that all is not wasted as we both hav... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Hi o,Maybe it’s just me, but this dialogue seems to be a repetitive series of ask, recommend, dispute/dismiss. I am puzzled as the thread started with discussions about Stereophile Class A+ vs A vs B components. The listed price of the LOWEST pric... |
