| Why do digital cables sound different? When in doubt about anything related to digital, just invoke "jitter". | |
| Vandersteen Quattro review in Stereophile The price difference between the two Quattros shows you how much cabinet contributes to speaker costs and why Vandersteen has always represented such a good value (but not such an attractive speaker). I would have a hard time putting the non-wood ... | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? I have an APL CDP and Harbeth speakers, and I have a Rowland pre I have used with the Cayin, which clearly shows the limitations of Cayin's preamp section. | |
| Velodyne DD's flying out of owners' houses Thank you!Have any of you DD owners also owned REL subs? How would you compare their strengths and weaknesses? | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? That Dussun looks mighty impressive.AAA Audio, who distribute Dussun in the US, had one of my favorite rooms at HE2006. They were using other amplification, however.I have a Cayin A88-T. As you've probably read elsewhere, there's a lot to be gaine... | |
| Vandersteen Quattro review in Stereophile What is known about the 5a Signature? | |
| digital amp, rowland 201,nuforce? The Concerto integrated amp section is effectively the same as as pair of 201s. In my opinion, the 201s sound very different from the Nuforce amps, but they are both great products. I am sure the H20 is also great, but jeeziz, Audiofankj, give it ... | |

Can you say a little more -- why do you suppose m... | |

| Elvis Costello & Allen Toussaint Wow! I saw them at the New Orleans Jazzfest in May, but it was mainly Tousssaint and his band with Elvis joining on vocals for a few numbers. No Imposters. Still, it was great. The title track to The River in Reverse is very powerful. And Toussain... | |
| Vince Welnick R.I. P. Although my favorite era was actually pre-1972, I saw some great shows in all periods, including a few I really loved in 86 and 87. Just like audio, it's all so personal. | |
| Have you tried Red Wine? Can anyone comment on how do these amps compare with other "Class D" or switching amps, such as the ICE, UcD, and Nuforce products? | |
| What are the specs of a full range speaker? I think Shadorne is referring to equalization in the service of room correction. Which would apply as well to subwoofer equalization a la Velodyne or Vandy 5A. Do the Definitions have user-adjustable equalization? | |
