| Anybody hear Murano ICE amps? IMO they are no different than any other ICEpower based design. | |
| Making your ARC 110/210/220 dead quiet Well, the other way to get rid of the fan noise is to disconnect them and run the amp with the top cover removed. That is how a friend of mine is running his 210s. IMO, my solution to the fan noise problem is much more elegant though. | |
| Audio Aero Capitole MK 2 owners must read this I also thought about replacing those caps, but never had a time to do it. Good to hear that is is working out for you !I eventually traded my Capitole for MBL 1531. | |
| McIntosh C1000 tube pre vs. ARC Ref 3? ... or Kubala Sosna Emotion IC. | |
| Are there digital front ends with the body... To my ears, the biggest problem for CDPs (as opposed to vinyl) is not the "body" (or lack of) but the dynamics - both micro and macro. | |
| EAR Acute v. Plinius CD101 I would choose the EAR just becouse I could not live with CD101's display. | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view I've reread Colloms's review and found another interesting point. Martin speculates (since he does not have enough exhamples of different applications of Class-D technology to prove his point), that the above avarage CI Audio resoult may be due to... | |
| Dartzeel or Tenor for Marten Coltrane speakers??? I would also consider Lamm ML 1.1 or 2.1. | |
| BAT Preamps, why such polarized opposite opinions? I would like to put my prevoius post into perspective. BAT sounds veiled and closed in IN COMPARISION to the latest ARC Reference gear (Ref 3 & Ref 110). If you compare it to some other amps, it may not be that obvious. Which doesn't change th... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view As I said in my initial post - those are just his conclusions. The original review is 14 pages long - full of technical analysys, measurements and his impressions. The amps were very well run in (500h), he tried varoius power cords, varoius inputs... | |
| BAT Preamps, why such polarized opposite opinions? From my expirience (I owned BAT 51SE for over 2 years) BAT is thick, slow and veiled. This is a typical BAT sound to me - I have tried severeal BAT components (VK30, VK-500, VK-150SE) and they all have this sonic signature. ARC Ref 3 on the other ... | |
| Which amp to drive Avalon Diamonds? I used to have Lamms M1.2 Ref driving my Eidolons Visions. It was not a good match IMO. | |
| BAT Preamps, why such polarized opposite opinions? I just have traded my BAT 51SE for a brand new ARC Ref 3. | |
| Good CDP with digital input/DAC capable Both Audio Aero Capitole and SACD Prestige offer a bunch of digital inputs. | |
| Wilson owners Call of Duty I somehow missed this thread before.FYI - Dave Wilson uses TA cables (Opus) at home. Last time I visited him, his system consisted of ARC CD 7 / REF 3 / VTL Sigfried / X-2. Wilson Audio also uses TA cable inside all Wilson speakers, although AFAIR... |
