BEST HEAVY METAL BAND I bought the "Black Album" when it came out and thought it was OK. I went to see the live show, man what a bunch of dorks, I lost all respect and felt like a fool in the presense of all those hairshakers. I don't know if they qualify as metal, but... | |
Wadia 860X I use an 860x direct to Pass Aleph 2s. I found that not only did I get the level that I wanted but the sound was much more dynamic and lively with the 4 volt output. Wadia seems to imply that the sound itself should not change, but I got a complet... | |
Aleph 2 needs CD/pre. "P",Adcom,Wadia? I posted on your other thread as well. I used the Aleph 2s with the GFP 750 and a Meridian player and got more drive than I get with the Wadia 860x without the preamp. The GFP 750 in passive mode should work great unless your speakers are not very... | |
Resolution Audio CD50 or Wadia 831? I am driving the Aleph 2s with an 860x. I had to get inside and change the output voltage to the max to get the level I wanted. At the max setting the 860 won't drive my speakers as loud as the Adcom GFP 750 in passive mode! I also found that the ... | |
Monitors for Linn Majik...HELP! I owned a Majik and got great results with a pair of Meadowlark Kestrels. The Kestrels are the best under 1000.00 speakers that I have heard and they actually have bass. | |
Cable recommendations Yeah Pro Silway Mk 2 are very good for the money, much better in my opinion than AQ Lapis or TARA master gen 2. I'm sure there are other good ones, but I found the Silways quite good myself. | |
Please help: Speaker wire ? You might look into Analysis-Plus cable. I tried it and found it very laid back. A little to much for me, but I don't have a bright sounding system. I thought that in the right system this stuff could be amazing. It has about the widest soundtage ... | |
Sound without the Preamp ? I too have had great results getting rid of the preamp. I recently upgraded from Meridian 506.24 with Adcom GFP 750 to the Wadia 860x player. I compared the Wadia with and without the preamp, and it was WAY better without. I'm going to spend the e... | |
Discsolution, anyone tried Megasam, Discsolution is basically invisible, there would be no way to tell if a disc had been treated, in fact if you did treat it, it would be worth more because it would sound better. | |
Discsolution, anyone tried Megasam, Discsolution comes in a two ounce bottle and you also get a small cloth made of some special material that will not scratch CDs, you can wipe in any direction. I clean all CDs even brand new ones. It seems to do more on some than others, ... | |
Opinions on what my next step should be I agree the P300 on the front end makes a huge diffrence. Even better, but you probably aren't going to hear this from anyone else is a product called the Electraclear EAU-1 at 495.00 this small black box that you simply plug into the wall makes a... | |
ANALYSIS PLUS CABLES get ready **** I have a set of silver oval speaker cables. I prefer the HT Pro 9 as well as audioquest clear to the silver oval. While the silver oval does some things incredibly well ie huge soundstage I feel that they are far to laid back reducing dynamics and... | |
Jolida for Meadowlarks? I have owned Meadowlark speakers and I agree that they need a smooth sounding amp to balance their slightly forward treble. I had good results with a Linn Majik integraded on a set of Kestrels (it might be a little low on power for Shearwaters, as... | |
Best headphones? I can answer the question regarding the Sony MDR-V6 vs. Sennheiser 600. I own both. The 600s are in every regard better by a lot. I would say it's like the diffrence between hearing a nice hifi system and a standard system | |
Best Power Conditioner I previously had my entire system plugged into a API Powerwedge 116. I was intriguied with the talk about the P300 and bought one. It was a major improvement over what I was using. The Powerwedge did seem to reduce the noise floor, but what I didn... |
