Any experiences with FM Acoustics Preamps
I just heard a FM 255 in my system as well as my friend's and my god, NOTHING prepares you for it as we nearly died of shock in what we heard. We also had a Krell KCT and a Mark Levinson No.32 in hand for A/B/C and once the FM 225 went into the sy... 
wadia 781i vs dcs puccini
Usarmyvet91, FYI,I conducted all my findings with a Virtual Dynamics Rev-2 power cord. 
wadia 781i vs dcs puccini
Usarmyvet91, the DCS Puccini's bass is on par with the Wadia 581-SE I owned. Only Esoteric have better bass than the two but they do not make a one box with pre out. 
wadia 781i vs dcs puccini
Usarmyvet91, You really need a good pre amp for either the Wadia and the DCS. I found running those two directly to power amps gave a thinner harsher sound. 
wadia 781i vs dcs puccini
I owned the Wadia 581-SE and auditioned the 781i and the Puccini. I currently also own the DCS classic Verdi Encore & Elgar plus which sound much better to the Puccini IMO. Funny thing is, I found the 781i to be a bit softer sounding than the ... 
CD player connected directly to Amplifier?
IMO and from my own experiences in my own system, I always found adding a pre amp even though the CD player can drive power amps directly always gave much more in terms of layers, depth and a more realistic mid range. I have owned the Weiss combo,... 
Krell cast MMF versus others
Thanks Cap..Yes, it does sound like Krell had changed their tune regarding cast cabling.....I wonder if it is just another profitable move????However, very interesting in your findings on the silver version. I never liked the sound of all Nordost ... 
Krell cast MMF versus others
Anyone else can input how the new Nordost MMF cast sounds??? I will also try at a later date to replace the cast with a top shelf XLR interconnect to see the differences.Thanks. 
Krell cast MMF versus others
Thanks Zieman,Love to try the Tara but it's just a bit out of my price range at the moment. My Transparent is 7m pair...way too long for my applicaton but think they work OK.Cheers. 
DCS Scarlati v Esoteric P-01,D-01
Hi,I have heard that the Accuphase DP800+DC801 is regarded best of the best and their DP-700 one box is 98% performance of it's bigger brother. Even the lower model DP-500 pure Redbook is a great sounding player for the money with their own all ne... 
Emm Labs CDSA-old version vs new tray version?
Hi,I recently bought a brand new CDSA-SE original German transport etc and even though only had less than 100 hours, it sounds very good. I have not heard the older version of the CDSA-SE so cannot comment on the differences but coming from a Wadi... 
Bi-wire v's single with jumper leads.
Bi wiring will not always give you a better sound. It really depends on the speakers and it's cross over design.If you really want to go the bi wiring route then you need to go what I call true bi wiring meaning 4 seperate runs to each speaker. Th... 
Krell MMF vs std CAST cables
Cap: I'll be very interested in your findings as I'm also looking to buy some cast cables but cannot demo any.All fine and well if the MMF sound faster, wider bandwidth etc, it is not good if it is thin sounding. I wonder if cast link will be much...
