| Beatles mono box as "limited edition" The stereo box sets will be available in wider distribution, correct? If what you're stating about the number of mono box sets for distribution is correct (10,000), then the demand for and interest in the mono sets must have been underestimated. | |
| Upgrading from Wilson Sophia 2's? it is inexcusable to have speakers costing over 10 grand (or for that matter ONE grand) that sound this disappointing. the sophias are good transducers, no question, but raising this many issues in (what sounds like) a decent room with very good c... | |
| Gryphon-Tannoy From what I've read (never heard) Gryphon's reputation is for being accurate, transparent, cool, fast, detailed, possibly analytical. | |
| wyred4sound amps I have to agree with Audiofeil and Tvad regarding Muralman1's posts in this thread. The inclusion of Pass Labs amplifiers and their level of quality in the world of solid state is irrelevant to this thread. | |
| Sub Cable Effect There are some inexplicable things that provide better sound or lesser sound. No one can give you a definitive answer without testing, analyzing, and measuring with the proper equipment. You just have to go with what sounds best. It would be nice ... | |
| wyred4sound amps I had the STI 1000 integrated amp and the build quality was nice. But, in the silver finish, aesthetically the Wyred 4 sound are some of the most industrial-looking, and spartan pieces you will ever see, (if appearance matters to you). I suppose t... | |
| cable burn-in / system burn-in Sherod, I like your style. Thanks for the post. Your experience of the effects of break in mirrors mine and I'm sure many others here. | |
| Best Integrated Under $3000 The Blue Circle BC-24 is a Hybrid amplifier not an integrated. Just my opinion, but I previously owned a McIntosh integrated (6900) and thought the soundstage was two dimensional. | |
| There is only one Ray Charles... If you don't have "O-Genio Ray Charles Live in Brazil" I recommend this DVD. | |
| More of a Tube Sound In a Tube CD player Thanks everyone for the dac suggestions. More thoughts on 1 box solutions are also welcome. I have always liked simplicity and minimalism when it comes to stereo. This is why over the past years I've had 2 systems involving seperates but many more... | |
| More of a Tube Sound In a Tube CD player Newbee, I suppose if I have to put it into words, (on the fly), I define "tube sound" as sonics with more air, natural timbre of instruments, and a degree of coloration (euphony). I need lots of current and power for my Ohm Walsh 5000 speakers (th... | |
| Synergy Develyn50 as one who has experimented for 5 years with varying brands of components I can say that it has not made this hobby fun for me. If the expense was not what it is and I could have returned all the gear that did not work out without taking... | |
| Modification Nightmares Modwright (Dan Wright) has been top notch in quality and service before and after the sale. He provides fair pricing and excellent service. As already said, if you decide to sell equipment you've had modified, you will not likely recoup the cost o... | |
| cable burn-in / system burn-in Thanks Rodman. | |
| cable burn-in / system burn-in Foster_9 wrote: Louis you lost me on this fade out thing. For me bottom line is that when I have a system that is taken down turned off, cables and equipment moved, then once the system is re-assembled it takes time for the system sound to come to... |
