AQ HDMI Cables
I agree with the suggestion from the dealer. I only have two sources to connect to my Classe SSP-800, a TiVo box and Arcam blu-ray. I did go with the Vodka from Blu-ray and Chocolate for TiVo . I felt the Blu-ray should have the better cable.I hav... 
If I can afford one good cable, which component?
I am a believer that cables do make a difference but in that attachment it states that using all cables from the same mfg and family will make a huge improvement. Their quote: "Result? You’ll hear a huge improvement in overall musical coherence, r... 
Sara K SACD vs. XRCD
A little late to this as I just came across it. I have the XRCD version of this and it is outstanding and the best quality sounding disc I own. I really wish this format had of taken off. I don't find a lot of music that interests me in this forma... 
Audioquest Comet input?
Actually wasn't asking what those on this site like, rather if anyone had experience with these cables. Yes, I do plan to try different cables. I started with these as stated I wanted to try a copper/silver combo wire first. I just wanted some use... 
Audioquest Comet input?
Thanks Chad. It sounds promising. It should be quite a step up from Blue Heaven. I am glad I waited for cables as the last thing to do. It took a while to get to the speaker cables but I am very happy to get to that point.-Rick 
Replacement for Nordost Cables in my system?
I have Nordost Blue Heaven thru-out (speaker/ic's). I find the sound a tad bit on lean side with no weight or body(on many tracks) and a little brittle when I turn up the volume.I have a few cables coming to audition and one of them is Kimber Kabl... 
Most Beneficial Cable Upgrade
I am in the midst of doing a two part cable upgrade spread out over the next couple of months. Now when I visit Audiogon, and visit the cable sectiion (which I love to read by the way), I assume we are almost always talking about stereo rigs and n... 
Pass Labs XA60.5 with Confidence C1
Keithr-exactly.This is why I visit this forum and I appreciate all the feedback...I LOVE my C1s and there may be many better speakers out there but I guess as I dig deeper into my crazed mind (-: and what I am looking for is the fact that I don't ... 
Pass Labs XA60.5 with Confidence C1
Yeah I know about the Octave and I am sure it is an awesome integrated BUT this is a stereo/ht combo and I am just not sure about combining tube amps and ss amps in a ht world. I am sure it would be a hit in stereo but I just don't know when I swi... 
Do people buy MAC gear for the blue meters
Don't know about the blue meters but I was at a store yesterday spending some time with some speakers for fun and I really, for the first time, got to play, touch, feel and listen to the SACD/CD player and it was amazing, beautiful, built like a t... 
Need A great Processor
Hi-I got to audition the SSP-800 a couple of weeks back and the sound quality was spectacular.I am down to a final decision (seperate pre/amp, prono preamp and turntable) or just get my HT rig current (I am using the original NAD M15). If it goes ... 
tube pre/amp with ss amp vs multi-channel ss amp
Hi Energizer,I already have a pretty kick ass HT set-up (to me-I listed my gear in the initial post). I am trying to bring my stereo side on par. I do not have room for two seperate set-ups. I do have room to throw in another amp or two.Thanks 
tube pre/amp with ss amp vs multi-channel ss amp
Hi,I appreciate the input. What started as a new HT processor has evolved into a full out asault on the stereo side of things. I really thought I would end up with a Classe HT piece I auditioned and was to demo the Arcam but as stated after gettin... 
New to TT's some advice questions
Thanks Guys for your feedback. I believe I am committed. I just love my speakers so much. I have been using a the NAD Masters M15 since I have owned the Dynaudio Confidence C1s and the Simaudio will be my first stereo pre/amp.I have not listened t... 
Best amps to pair with dynaudio C2
And I would really suggest Simaudio. I am using the Titan multi-channel but when I am ready to add a two channel it will still be Simaudio. Good-Luck
