| What is the best sounding SACD on the market? Marantz SA-14 (if not buying the $37,000 Accuphase)I run my actively bi-amped B&W800's with all Krell except my Marantz SA-14 SACD player sitting atop a Nueance platform. Not only does it play the new format, but the CD playback is breathtakin... | |
| Best speaker cables for B&Wn803 and Cello Encore Have you tried Cello Strings.Richard | |
| Krell MD10R and SBP-64X DAC - help? I would go for new technology.The MD10 is beautiful and does function very well.I had the opportunity to buy the Reference 64 D to A ($14,000)for just $2000. At the time, I had the Krell Studio($3900). I asked a friend at Krell if I should buy it,... | |
| Philips SACD 1000 / power cords in general Eldartford,In my limited experience, yes an extension cord did degrade my sound. I ended up going ahead and have my electrician put in another dedicated line, as that was cheaper than having a multiple outlet power cord made.I personally prefered ... | |
| Krell FPB Owner want to try Tube Amp or Integrated I use the FPB300 to drive the top end of my B&W's, and as others have said -- not too bright compared to live music.I use Krells own KRC-HR preamp. Also, if you really want your FPB to sing, add the Pure Note Sigma power cord; a match made in ... | |
| I just sold my cd player what should i get? I agree with Lafish.I sold my old Krell and bought the Marantz SA-14 SACD player and placed it on the Nueance platform. The sound is fantastic, especially on CD's!Richard | |
| A most neutral and transparent power cord On Krell, use PURE NOTE SIGMA. It makes a big difference.www.purenote.comAs a bonus, they are great to deal with.Richard | |
| Best footers for TEAC P-30 transport? Forget the footers!I added the Nueance platform under my Marantz SA-14 player and it transformed the quality of my CD (and SACD) playback. E-mail them at: -----greaterranges@msn.com-----Tell them I sent you,Richard | |
| Best bang-for-buck purchase you have made? It is a toss-up, either:Nueance platform to use under my SACD player or,Pure Note Sigma power cords.Richard | |
| Are two dedicated lines better than one? I also use 4 dedicated lines (2 for amps, 1 for digital, and one for preamp and electronic x-over) and was able to do away with the power conditioner; but you will have to experiment with your particular situation.Richard | |
| Philips SACD 1000 / power cords in general Sean,I too have a SACD player that has no grounding at the IEC jack. It is the Marantz SA-14. I have tried the stock cord, a $200 cord and a $600 cord. The sonic difference is bearly noticable at best (with the $200 cord taking the lead).Did you d... | |
| krell KSA-250 or KSA-200s I have never heard the KSA200S, but have owned the KSA250, the KSA300S, and the FPB300.The 300S was definitely more refined than the 250, but if you can afford the 300S, I would hold off and go for the FPB300 (not the 200) which is not much more e... | |
| Thoughts on Krell Studio 2 vs. Theta Pro Basic III I have owned the Studio (not the less expensive 2) and I think it is fabulous! At the used price it is a steal.Unfortunately I don't know about the Theta except that they do make excellent products. | |
| Sony SCD-1 vs. SCD-777ES ******David,Have you heard the Marantz SA-14 or one of the megabuck SACD combo's ($15K+)Richard |
