| Heard the Bryston SST 2 Squared ? Asclepius,you won't believe what the Torus will do compared to the Shunyata.I use to use a hydra 6 and hydra 2s and then I aquired the Torus(NIGHT AND DAY,HUGE DIFFERENCE)I'd like to know also about the SST2amps,4BS,7Bs,14Bs.I wondersonically,how ... | |
| CD change? When I auditioned CDPs,to my ears I preferred the BCD-1.I auditioned 3 players,Arcam's top player,Audio Research CD-7Thing is I wanted the CD-7,but kept going back to the BCD-1.I really like the player and I use the analog outs,using the BCD-1 dac... | |
| Interconnect from Phono stage to Pre amp I too am using Cardas Golden reference,My LPs sound excellent. | |
| active X-over True enough,PEACE OF MIND and then active speakers,will this ever end,I hope not, she's too much fun,and the blind testing is a very good way of testing,shutting out everything but the music,Thanks for that one. | |
| active X-over Hi Bob,that,s what i'll be doing also is highpassing my 50as.I just figure that the 10B should be superior to the Av-8s internal X-over+the DDs X-over.I like what I have so far as sound goes,I'm thinking maybe I can squeeze more out of her.True my... | |
| how big a speaker can you put in an 11 x 11 room? My room is a 11X12X9'ceiling(huge)and I have Revel 50as+a revel 50a centre speaker,I'll put it this way,I have four component racks(full 3X7bssts+2X4Bssts,cdr,cdp,clearaudio championII TT,2-Torus units,Arcam prepro av-8 and Arcam-139 dvd,and 2X Ve... | |
| active X-over I have found the best position for the sub using the mike and the display from the DD-15.I put the sub where I sit and with the DD graph on my tv screen I walked around the room to see where I could get the flattest response and that's where the s... | |
| active X-over Yes I am(as little as possible,using the EQ,I'm hoping the 10B X-over is superior to my prepro also.To me the signal has to go thru the prepros bass management(or not)or the subs bass maagement.I could be wrong,but if the signal goes thru the 10B,... | |
| active X-over Hi guys,the 10b-sub X-over is for the sub-main separation.And no,I'm not using bass management as I'm telling my pre that I don't have a sub(but I do)so with my speakers set to large ,all my lowend is going to my mains and the 10B controling what ... | |
| Warmer CD sound sought - MCD 301 or 500 or REF CD7 I auditioned 3 players about 5 months ago,AudioResearch CD-7,Arcam's top player(forget the #) and bryston BCD-1.They were all connected to a Audio research pre.I had about 2-3 hrs. with them and my own music.To MY ears(and I really wanted the CD-7... | |
| Bryston BCD-1 impressions? Stereophile did a bunch of jitter tests on a group of CDPto make her short the BRYSTON BCD-1 had some of the lowest jitter readings and that was with cdps costing 3-10 times as much.I guess all those perty blue lights,hefty prices and fancy covers... | |
| Bryston BCD-1 impressions? All I can say is(not that it happens often)is when a component just jumps out at you without me trying to listenor wanting to hear an improvement.Three pieces have done that for me so far,my 50as,Torus PIU,pcs and Bcd-1.if any cable or component d... | |
| Revel B 15 set up You can go to the Revel sight and there they show you quite a few ways of hooking her up.i use two subs and one is connected to the sub out on prepro and of course to the inputon the sub,that's for movies.And the other I'm using 2 Y cables out of ... | |
| Bryston BCD-1 impressions? I did forget to mention that I'm using the dacs in the BCD-1(analog outs)no digital out,as I preferred that to my Benchmark DAC-1 ,if I was then she'd be dependenton dacs in the preamp or dac.Anyway I like her alot and she'llbe my last CDP. | |
| Bryston BCD-1 impressions? To my ears,the BCD-1 got me closer to the sound of real instruments.I auditioned Arcams top cdp(can't remember the mod#and believe it or not Audioresearch CD-7(and that's the one Iwanted to buy(8000.00)I spent around 3 hrs with the three units(and... |
