| Do you ever use the balance on your pre amp? I don't think Plato was joking at all. His are good suggestions, and so is a balance control. | |
| HELP Digital bad, vinyl good??? Have you used these combinations successfully before and this distortion is a new development? | |
| Cost effective mods for a Sony SCD-777ES Are you unhappy with the way it sounds now? I ask because I was never as happy with mine after the extensive mods I had done as I was before. Even though it clearly sounded "better" in many respects, I just didn't enjoy listening to it as much. If... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Guidocorona is a gentleman and a scholar. | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? I'm confused. You say the Transporter has a great DAC, but it sounds like you are taking its digital out and using the DAC in your Audio Aero. | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Returning to this topic to revist the confusion around my use of the term "granular" to mean finer increments. I was running some focus groups a few weeks ago with IT managers who talked about the need to impose more "granular" restrictions on acc... | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? Based on your answers, Pardales, I think the question you meant to ask is, Can the average computer put out a signal equal to that of a dedicated CD player or transport? | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? Correct. But his discussion of the role of power supplies in creating jitter goes to Alex's "noiseball" doctrine. Or maybe I just don't understand this stuff well enough. | |

| Tact Pre Amps 2.2XP You can also program the system to correct for an average of several seating locations.The better your present speaker/room interaction, the less effect the TacT will have. I think some speaker manufacturers could benefit greatly by using TacT sys... | |
| Tact Pre Amps 2.2XP Boz told me recently they're working on a crosstalk elimination function that will keep signals from the left speaker from going into the right ear.!!!Wonder what that does to the sweet spot. | |
| Sealed Loudspeakers? Are any of the Avalon designs still AS? The original Eclipse, Ascent, Radian and I think the Monitor were all sealed. | |
| Today's Transport War: Significant Differences? My reading of the POV of both Empirical and APL is that their preferences are independent of price, or nearly so. Empirical believe that hard-disk systems give us an opportunity to achieve better sound (by reducing jitter to practically nothing) t... | |
| any one have direct exp with hi-end hard drive? I was very impressed with the sound of the MP at RMAF. But the interface looked crude and the price is very high. Still, given not only the sound of the unit but the track records of the firm's principals, this product could be Significant. | |
| Best "Rock/Pop" Debut Album? DJ ... actually spun the song twice in a row back to backI heard a similar thing when I was about 13: a DJ played Moby Grape's Omaha twice in a row. As you said, Alex, the Moby Grape debut album belongs on this list. |
