| Any thoughts on Pass X150.8 ? Old thread, but I just stumbled on it and will add I have been using a Pass 150.8 for 2 years and it remains my favorite solid state amp (42 years in the hobby). First solid state amp I could live with, and I find I rarely use my reference tube a... | |
| Sequerra 7.7 Mk. 1 - finish? I think it was Nextel. I had a pair, please note that the woofers went bad; Dick told me the original woofers were flawed and sent me replacements that I installed - it solved the problem. I wound-up selling them as I found them fatiguing (the or... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Thanks Todd, when I get time I will do some 'real' listening with & w/out upsampling with me Pavane and let you know what I find : ) | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Good to know you got the RJ45I2S to work with your DAC - motivates me to do the same. I have a NOS dac (Metrum Pavane), so upsampling on the transport is fine in my set-up. Upsampling does sound a bit different - too early to say much, but my in... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Right on a1uc - have fun with the CDT! : ) If you, or anyone, have suggestions for specific CAT7/8 cable one can buy in bulk I am all ears. I am looking at DH Labs "Reunion CAT8", and Audioquest "CAT700 Carbon" . . . that is kinda all I am fi... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Right on : ). I just got the pin information so I can do the same - the pinning for the Metrum Pavane DAC and Jay's CDT3 are very different, but with the info from both makers in hand now (thank you Metrum and Jay's!) I am ready to go. May I ask,... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Btw, the pinning appears to be different between the Jay's CDT3 and the Metrum Pavane . . . still working on it, but it might require a custom cable to get that I2S connection . . . will update as we work this out. | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Thanks Todd and a1Uc. a1uc, it'd be great if you could post your progress with the RJ45 I2S connection between the CDT3 and Lampizator. I plan to buy the I2S module for my Metrum Pavane L3 dac, and Todd noticed it seems to have an RJ45 port, as ... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Just a shout-out that Todd and Alvin have both been fantastic; they have responded to all of my e-mails RE my CDT3 Mk3 in a timely manner, and my unit was promptly shipped with truly outstanding tracking information, and it even arrived earlier th... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Just posted this on another website - pasting it here: My Jay’s CDT3-MK3 arrived today - I have it playing as I type - will post a review after I let it break-in a bit, but I’ll share a few quick notes: it played every disc my PS Audio PWT would ... | |
| Has anybody listened to WLM speakers? I have a pair of WLM La Scala's and they are extraordinary: my favorite speaker so far (have owned Avalons, Audio Physic Step SLEs w/ REL sub, Morel Octwins, Impulse Lali's and many more). The comments above are spot on: these are a huge sounding ... | |
| Hum in the system I get hum in my system when my Naim 3.5 cd player is plugged into the wall and the system contains and MFA Magus pre-amp. If I unplug the Naim, the hum is gone. If I replace the Magus with and Audible Illusions L1 pre-amp, there is not a hum probl... |
