| Marantz SACD player suggestion That is extremely helpful, nonoise. Thanks so much. My tastes tend to agree with yours, preferring a more open, cleaner sound, soundstage definition and all the other attributes you describe. I was hoping at this price range the Marantz would be e... | |
| Marantz SACD player suggestion Nonoise, you say "No Comparison", but it would be really helpful if you would offer a brief comparison between the two so we can understand why you preferred one over the other so definitively. Thank you. | |
| Powerquest 3 vs. Niagara 1200 Yes, the amp was plugged into one of the high current outlets when using both units. | |
| Problems connecting my Sony Bravia TV to Hegel h360 integrated On the Digital Audio Output setting on your TV, turn off the Dolby Digital. Stereo DACs cannot accept multi-channel data streams such as Dolby Digital. There will be an option on your SONY to select PCM instead. That should solve it! | |
| Powerquest 3 vs. Niagara 1200 guakus, I started with Straight Wire's Black Thunder II power cord on the Niagara 1200, with satisfactory results. But since have upgraded to their top Pro Thunder and it has improved more than I would have expected. | |
| RMAF 2021 Cancelled It is odd they haven't updated their own website yet. But their official notification to vendors and exhibitors is posted everywhere. Sad. | |
| PSB Owners I can't answer most of your specific questions, however, I would like to address one serious concern with your system in general. I own both the Synchrony Ones and Synchrony Twos, and I can guarantee you your NAD integrated will not be up to the t... | |
| Marantz SACD30N Thank you for the link, gryphongryph. That was most informative and actually makes a lot of sense. It is especially enlightening to learn how some manufacturers actually "fudge" it by offering an XLR jack but not the balanced circuitry to support... | |
| Marantz SACD30N No, tweak1, I’m not overreacting or being being defensive. I just don’t like misinformation being flung about. Please, go ahead and make your point, but do it using facts not falsehoods. | |
| What speakers are shown in the movie The Counselor? Yes, we see stuff like Coke and Kellogg's cereal etc all the time. But it's rare we see real stereo equipment. So I was rather excited! | |
| What speakers are shown in the movie The Counselor? Excellent! Thank you for the info and the link. That looks exactly like them. Sorry my link didn't work. But yours is perfect. | |
| Marantz SACD30N To clarify and correct the record, the Marantz 30N is $2499, not $3999, (USD) vs the Technics at $2999. So yes you get XLR outputs with the Technics and YOU PAY MORE for it. I agree it's unfortunate the Marantz doesn't have XLR jacks, but don't fa... | |
| Parasound Hint 6 or separates? Thanks, goldprintaudio, that helps a lot! | |
| Parasound Hint 6 or separates? Thanks for the responses. No, I am not completely sold on Parasound. I am concerned with power, though, due to my speakers and large listening room. The Hint 6 offers a lot of watts for the money compared to most competing integrateds in its price... | |
| Parasound Hint 6 or separates? Thanks, that has been my experience as well, along with saving a bunch on the extra power cord and set of interconnects for separates. But I want to explore all options before buying the Hint. |
