| Amps to use with Von Schweikert VR4jr's Carl, it really depends on what you like in am amp. For example, do you prefere a darkly light sound stage or a bright one. Do you prefer body to transparency or vice versa (I often find there is a trade off between the two). Also, what types of m... | |
| New York, New York - Audio Stores????? Thank you everyone. I will let you know how it goes!!! | |
| Hi Fi burnout. Happened to me at one point....almost sold it all...but then I started to listn to music again...and...decided it is important to me to have a system that "I" enjoy listening to. As I am a young audiophile of a few years, it took those few years t... | |
| Von Schweikert VR4-Jr: Urgent Opinions Needed I for one say go for the Von's...I have there big brother (the VR4Gen III SE's) and love them. I will admit I have not heard the jr's but from what people tell me they are one heck of a speaker for the money. Just my 2cents | |
| Merlin/Digital Amplification ? Digital amps are tricky beasts!!! My feeling is that they work well with some speakers and bad with others...as to why????? Who knows??????? I love my Spectron MII (which will soon be a MIII). I know a lot of people who favor more convential amps.... | |
| Which Cord OVER Python For Original Hydra ? Adding an anaconda (not the VX) drops the sound floor of a system substantially but also you will loose some dynamics (very little but if you a/b the to cables you might notice it). Either way, it is a big upgrade. | |
| dcc2 owners: has anyone regretted the purchase? I love my DCC2 - it is amazing...but it is a different animal then the Bat VK-51SE (which I have also owned). The DCC2 is about beauty, low level detail out the wazoo, and resolution but is does not gie you that monsterous sound stage or bloom tha... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? It is a great paler..especially for the price ( I formerlly owned one) but there are better red book players (at higher price points I shoul add) The two didgital fron I ends I have owned since the DV-50 are the Wadia 861 w/ GNSC Statement mod and... | |
| EMM Labs CDSD / DCC2 - Initial Listening Session Jjwa....are you using a modified philips? I though I had heard what the DCC2 was capable of before I had a Meitner compatible transport...but now....WOW. It really makes all the difference. If you are just using a standard transport with the DCC2.... | |
| Detroit, Michigan I am interested. I am in the detroit area. | |
| Can transport in Philips SACD 1000 be replaced? You are welcome. Please keep us informed as I will soon have one of the few meitner/philips tranports still working and as much as I hope it continues to work, I would love to have an alternative if it does not. | |

| DVD Player, Better Sound? It depends on the DVD player but I am going to make an educated guess that if your DVD player is new (say within the past 2 years) it will definetly sound better. Cd tehcnology has come along way since 86. If you where using a much higher end play... | |
| Comparing Wadia vs. Meitner I tend to agree with Rtnl......The Elrod Statement II on the Wadia was huge inmprovement!!!!!!! Soundstage, Transparency, and Dynamics all increased greatly. I have not though heard it with the Virtual Dynamics. | |
| GNSC Wadia Statement Mods/Heard Them? I agree...call GNSC...they do great work and are very honest. I owned an Wadia 861 with GNSC Statement mod and loved it!!! |
