| Recommendations on Toslink cable vdH optocoupler is one of, If not THE best TosLink cable available. | |
| Bel Canto eVo 6 Gen2 v Cary Audio Design Cinema 5 eVo 6 is an excellent choice. You can bridge the 4 channels to power the fronts (it will get 400W/8 Ohms and 600W/4 Ohms) and use the spare 2 chanels to drive the rear speakers (you will get 120W/8 Ohm and 200W/4Ohm).The amps sounds great for the ... | |
| Looking for an amp to drive Eidolons Vision. Thanks for your input so far. Atma is unfortunately over my budget. I was wondering if anyone triad the new Jeff Rowland 300 stereo power amp ? The no-heat issue is very tempting (although I have a AC in my listening room, I tend to switch it off ... | |
| US Gear overseas - Voltage Conversion Questions Last time I checked, Meridian can be rewired for 115V (or 230V) operation. E-mail Meridian for details. And skip the transformers. | |
| Best Dac/Transport Under 50,000 I would suggest the full blown dCS stack - Verdi La Scala transport, Elgar Plus DAC and Verona external clock. They are vastly superior to the previous, non DSD upsampling dCS models. They are also IMO superior to EMM stuff in both build quality a... | |

| Tally up best digital player ever Probably Reimyo. | |
| Audioquest CV-6 or Monster M2.2 KE-6 is an excellent cable by any measure, but it is also much more expensive than Mont Blanc. I would suggest listening to KE-4, which IMO is MUCH better than both Mont Blanc and Volcano (which I owned), and only slightly inferior to KE-6, at hal... | |
| High quality transports IMO CDSD still has too many problems. If money is no object - MBL 1621A - the best there is right now. | |
| BEST 90's Audio Gear that holds its own today. dCS Elgar - debuted in 1996 and still in production with minor software changes and the addition of Firewire input.Marantz CD-7.YBA Integre amplifier.Sonus Faber Extremas. | |
| Suggestions for a transport under $1000 I would stay away from Theta Data Basic II. If it fails, transport mechanism is no longer available. Mine failed shortly after I sold it (I was lucky, the new owner was not).I would rather look for sth like Proceed CDD or Theta Jade - both servica... | |
| Review of Dartzeel NHB-108 Amplifier Jtinn - how does it compare to Tenor audio 150/300 ? | |
| Help me tune my Theta Gen Va DAC To make the long story short, I sold the Theta before I got the caps (they were backordered). |
