| Just when I thought digital could not match analog Never used a DAC before but this thread has me interested in one day trying this one. I currently have 2 cd players. What would be the best to get the most performance out of this DAC in my system or is the best way via an Apple computer? | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman, I will eventually replace the tubes. No other speakers to compare with however. Thanks | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Thanks Newbee, Almarg has been saying similar. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Foster_9, I'm at a loss. RebbiI know what you mean.The DNA-500 has more than enough power and current to drive the Walsh 5000s. This must be a placement issue. Mamboni (Answers)The speakers have played with better low end reinforcement in their cu... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Hello gang. I've been working with my Walsh 5000's and although I thought I was on the way to getting their performance right it's turned out to be a no go. The 5000's are inefficient and need high current and high power, particularly to play them... | |
| Why so negative about McIntosh speakers? My bad Newbee. | |
| Why so negative about McIntosh speakers? 11-16-09: NewbeeLOL. There are a lot of fine speakers that get tons on criticism in these pages. But since you don't own them and probably haven't heard them, you just assume that it is all warranted.Newbee, your post seems to be attacking Sit for... | |
| Integrated SS amps - Luxman vs. Simaudio Moon? Which integrated will match best with your speakers and room and what kind of sound do you prefer? Unfortunately, there is no way for anyone to answer these questions. You will not know until you're able to stick the integrated in your system with... | |
| High Current SS amps with input impedance = 200K As we all know very well lots of things in audio are both unexplainable and unpredictable. Almarg (Answers)Al, I said practically the same thing in the "This Makes No Sense" thread.All things occurring with the performance of audio systems are not... | |
| High Current SS amps with input impedance = 200K Al, thanks for the feedback as usual. I have a bit to add on the Burson AB-160 buffer. It's been in my setup for 3 days with signal going through (72 hours). What they say about it is true. It will take a budget player and lift its performance. Th... | |
| How much does your system retail for? 10-09-09: EbmHOW does it sound is the important question money spent does not always mean great sound!!!!Amen... Ebm | |
| High Current SS amps with input impedance = 200K I'm currently using a Burson AB-160 buffer between my McCormack DNA-500 amp and VTL preamp. I'm waiting for it and associated cables to break in and sonics to stabilize. I'll report back with developments after it gets some significant hours on it. | |
| High Current SS amps with input impedance = 200K Yes I think you are correct too, Mapman. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Spoke to Matt at Bel Canto today. He says that what's called for is a preamp with an impedance output of between 50 and 100 ohms - shrink and center the quoted textRebbi, there are a limited number of tube preamps avaiable that will fall in the 50... | |
| This makes no sense, but yet.... All things occurring with the performance of audio systems are not guaranteed to make sense. If everything made sense, man would this be simpler. |
