| APL NWO2.5 ? Good point Drubin...in reality every piece of the chain is important to an optimal result. The way I interpreted Chungted point, which was the basis for my response, was given an existing system (without regard for how it was put together) one is ... | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Chungted, I have had the NWO2.5 for a couple of months now and I would agree 200% with your comment. Buy the best source first and then work back towards the speakers. Only then can you know for sure how up to snuff the rest of your gear really is... | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Steve, good to talk with you. Thanks again for your endorsement of Alex and his work. You did not lead me astray! Have a great holiday season yourself my friend and shoot me that info on your speakers and cables when you get a chance!David | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? I now have just over 100 hours of burn in time on my new NWO 2.5 and thought I would post a quick update. The improvements have been gradual, continuous and significant. The sound has become increasingly fluid and detailed. Subtle ambient cues and... | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Thanks Frank! I am currently bypassing the darTZeel pre-amp as the NWO 2.5 has a built in volume control, although I will go back and verify my initial findings by reconnecting to the darTZeel pre-amp. I spec'ed my NWO 2.5 with RCA outputs, althou... | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? I just got my NWO 2.5 on Friday. Right out of the cold box it sounded wicked good. I first connected it to my pre-amp and said wow, this sounds really impressive. Then I connected it directly to my darTZeel amp. My jaw hit the floor. Once you take... | |
| power cable recommendation for dartzeel amplifier I would add Shunyata's top of the line Orion helix speaker cables. I auditioned a laundry list of cables when I switched from my MIT Oracle v1.1 cables and liked the Shunyata's by a wide margin. They have the speed and transparency of ribbons and ... | |
| power cable recommendation for dartzeel amplifier I use the Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha on my dart amp with excellent results. | |
| Anyone tried Shunyata's Antares interconnect yet ? Has anyone in this thread tried the Orion Shunyata speaker cable (their current top of the line) or is this thread just about interconnects? | |
| Anyone tried Shunyata's Antares interconnect yet ? Mkilpi,After extensive listening to the Shunyata cables I came to the conclusion that while initially they seem to be "lean" on the bass side, that really they are producing an accurate sonic picture of the original event. In other words, I believ... | |
| Anyone tried Shunyata's Antares interconnect yet ? Hi Mika,No, my high end dealer did not carry Transparent's top of the line models so I was not able to compare them in my bake-off. I know they are highly regarded. It will be interesting to get some feedback from Dgad on that score. All I can say... | |
| Mark Levinson 32 and reliability Frankpiet,Glad to hear that you're happy with your Boulder gear. I am sure there are synergies when listening to an all Boulder amp/pre-amp combination. Are you using XLR connections between your sources and the pre-amp? Looking back at it I think... | |
| DartZeel compared to Pass Labs XA-160/200's I have had the darTZeel amp and pre-amp for several months now and can only agree with Arthurp, that they are truly an awesome sounding combination. The 50 ohm constant impedance link between the amp and pre-amp is pure genius and outperforms easi... | |
| Review: Linn Schulte Modified CD12 CD Player Jpl208, that's what I'm doing now is running the CD12 24x7 to break it in as fast as possible. While the rate of improvement has slowed dramatically when I play specific songs that I am super familiar with I can periodically detect some improvemen... | |
| Opinions on Walker High Definition Links I would second what has been posted here. I just got the Reference HDL's to try on my Dynaudio Temptations. Lloyd told me to give them 3-5 days of burn in before doing an A/B comparison...so I did. They definitely work as advertised in my system /... |
