| suggestions for used class A integrated under $2k I often wonder what comprimises you must make to have an integrated at any price level vs. seperates. | |
| DAC for Cal Audio Labs CL-10 I have a Benchmark (can be had for $850 new) & love it. Incredible detail & great features. You can forgo a pre-amp & run direct into your amp or use the headphone features. I think this piece of "pro-audio" is a killer deal & soun... | |
| Where R U????? Somersworth, New Hampshire | |
| Reference Monitor Recommendations Help-Please I second the Tyler's, they are a sweet musical speaker. | |
| Audio Experience gear direct from factory A friend of mine has one of the pre-amps & it sounds great, it made me pull my Conrad PV10 out of my system. Well worth the money, contact: nick@nickspicks.com He is also a member here. | |
| Speaker recommendations / live concert recordings I had a tube pre amp for a year or so with my set-up. I have recently moved away from one due to a deal gone bad & I am actually enjoying the fact that I don't have tubes in my system. As far as tone controls are concerned, skip them & tun... | |
| Benchmark DAC-1 vs. smART DIO It was a fun time for sure, it re-enforces my feelings of the Benchmark being an incredible all around product. I never thought I could live without a tube pre-amp in my system but at this point I can't imagine going back to tubes. I figure it thi... | |
| Now I'm confused, Sonus Fiber Grand Piano's? I think they do sound great & I know they aren't taken seriously because they are sold at Tweeter, I know I didn't expect much personaly. I can't get them out of my head so I guess I'll have to go back & spend a little more time with them.... | |
| Now I'm confused, Sonus Fiber Grand Piano's? No, they did not have the Vienna Acoustics hooked up at the time. We were going to drag them over so I could hear them but being rear ported they would pose a problem in my room. | |
| Speaker recommendations / live concert recordings Don't listen to Nick, every time he leaves my house I shake my head. I'm not a panel guy, plain & simple. Box speakers have the slam he can't experience unless he comes to my house. If you want the real thing you need slam. We both used to tap... | |
| Question for Tyler Reference Monitor owners I own a pair but thought it was actually opposite of what you said? I thought nuetral was down & up was the 3db cut? | |
| opinion on electronics for Vandy 2Ce Sig I had Vandies with a DNA1 & CJ PV10. I will highly recommend the 2CE's with a DNA-1 but I'd skip the CJ & get an Audible Illusions pre-amp instead. This should yield a very musical system. One thing I will warn against though with the Vand... | |
| Clean power & ground issue? I was thinking of switching the wires around but I don't know if it's somehow related to the grounding issue. I have checked the ground wire in the house & replaced the clamp but it still doesn't ground properly. | |
| Incredible CD sound for $1500?? I have decided on a Benchmark DAC to go with my Phillips until I can figure out a transport thet will play CD, CDR & DVD-A | |
| Incredible CD sound for $1500?? Also, I have no intentions of getting rid of my pre-amp. Yes it would allow me to spend even more in my quest for the ultimate Red-Book player but it does not (at least at this time) seem like a practical idea. |
