| No 30.5 & 31.5. Still of reference quality ? Thanks for your comments. I'm thinking about getting 31.5 CDT since I dont believe in a long term SACD success. | |
| Voltage conversion Krell equipment I will back up hat Mcdonji1 said. I too had that problem with my KRC-3 preamp. The voltage can be easily changed using the toggle switches next to the transformer (you must have to know how to set them though) but the amp will not fire up anyway, ... | |
| Warmest solid-state integrated for under $2k Both Plinius and Musical Fidelity are on the warm side. | |
| BAT VK 75SE & BAT VK 51SE & Cremonas speakers. Cardas Golden Ref are great bang for the buck - esp when picked used. Great resolution and VERY neutral sound. One of the best cables around, regardless of price.Transparent aren't any better (I have tried Ultra MM and Reference MM), and are far m... | |
| Upgrading from KRC3: ARC LS25 or JRDG Synergy IIi? Thanks for all your comments. | |
| Has the Plinius 9200 been reviewed? The new integrated ? There was a review in HiFi News & RR (UK) by Martin Colloms. He concluded that the amp is medicore at best, and he is the guy who usually knows what he is talking about. | |
| Expensive interconnects In my experience Nordost cables sound just as they look - thin. | |
| MA6900 Jumper I haven't tried replacing this jumper on the MA6900. Howewer, I tried replacing similar jumper in an other integrated amp and the difference was very worthwile. More air, more resolution, more details. You should definately try. | |
| Anyone tried running PS Audio P-300 with no fan ? I got an aftermarked cooler. Not a Papst, which happend to backordered, but some chineese stuff. I took the most quiet I could find - 19dB. It costed 10$ in a nearby computer shop. I also got a manual speed controller, which added 5$ to the bill.W... | |
| Theta Pro Gen Va Balanced & Levinson 360S I also have a Gen Va (with both XLR in and outs) but never heard that it requires a balanced input (AES/EBU) to be trully balanced.IMO the way digital signal enters the dac has nothing to do with the way it is processed in digital and then analog ... | |
| Anyone tried running PS Audio P-300 with no fan ? Yeah, that is strange - the whole P-300 housing is made of aluminium anyway and it is a one, big heatsink, so enlarging those heatsink "wings" should be easy and cheap. | |
| Audio Net amplifiers from Germany I heard them with AudioNet CDP and Zoller Temptation speakers (also German made). | |
| Anyone tried running PS Audio P-300 with no fan ? I got this answer from PS Audio:"The fan can be unplugged if you are not running the unit too hard. Loads under 100 watts should be fine without the fan."So I disconnected the fan, but I also decided to try an ultra quiet (only 11dB!) Papst cooler... | |
| Audio Net amplifiers from Germany Those are very fast and precise sounding amps. Some say that they are a bit to dry and analytical. Very good - yes, but reference - no. | |
| Information on 1992 Primare 204 CD Player Did you by chance got them from Nic Poulsen (ex-Trilogy, not at IsoTek)?I remember him having this setup. Both 204 and ARS Acoustica System Max speakers are quite rare. |
