| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Brian & others involved in the upcoming shootput. (really don't like the term shootout since we have a common goal, hopefully). Anyway, I've been watching this thread with much interest. Besides myself there'll be many waiting for your results... | |
| Soundstage and voices lean to the left side???? Check your cabling. Make sure everything is hooked up right. + to + & - to -. | |
| dcc2/cdsd owners: how much acoustic dampening? To elaborate a little more on switching between pcm and dsd during break in.There are differences in the signal path from disc reading in the transport on through the dac for pcm and dsd. (Different chips etc.) By alternating you'll have a better,... | |
| dcc2/cdsd owners: how much acoustic dampening? Hi Michael. I think the Emm gear sounds good out of the box but continues to improve for about 500 hours. You should get more body and a more musical sound with time. As for the CDSD I don't have one yet but I'm told it's much better than the Phil... | |
| dcc2/cdsd owners: how much acoustic dampening? I would suggest that you wait until you have 500 or more hours on the EMM gear before tuning your room. It will have more of what you're looking for when fully broke in. | |
| Any experience with Gryphon amps ? Bombaywalla. Actually the Antillean Sig. weighs about 200lbs. It's built to last. | |
| Any experience with Gryphon amps ? I have a Gryphon Encore. I've owned Pass x-350, JC 1's, Electrocompaniet AW 220's, Chapter II plus and the Gryphon is my favorite. I would upgrade to the Antillion if I could afford it. It really makes my Talon Firebirds sing. I also liked the JC ... | |
| Meitner DCC2 Lugnut, Thanks for sharing your experience with the Emm gear. I was wondering if your friend is using the Philips 1000 or the new EMM transport. Also what other cables did you try? I was thinking that if He's using the Philips with the silver cabl... | |
| cdp comparision shopping Re: Cary 303-100. I would consider spending a little more and putting the 303-200 on your list instead of the 100.I have the 303-200 and find it very musical.You'd be not only getting a better sounding cdp but in all likelyhood a lower hour unit. ... | |
| Meitner DCC2 Bombaywalla, I believe they are talking about the First Sound paramount. It is higher up the line from the First Sound presence deluxe. | |
| Comparing Wadia vs. Meitner Robm321 & audiobugged. I don't know what your problem is with the attacks but sounds like you're filled with envy, jealousy and strife. | |
| Gryphon Encore vs Gryphon Antileon Sig. Thanks for the reply Al. Did you happen to compare the Antileon's to the Encore before buying? Was wondering if the two amps shared a "house" sound with the antileon at a higher level.Frank | |
| Emperical Audio Mods for Parasound Halo JC-1'S Hi Lanny. As you know I'm waiting for a reply as well. I had the JC-1's in my system for two weeks and thought they were great as is. Does the soundstage really double in width etc.? Maybe we'll hear from someone after the 3 day weekend. | |
| Comparing Wadia vs. Meitner I wrote my last post right before tireguys. As a postscript I'd like to tell you what Frank P also said in our phone conversation about the several players that were compaired. He said "I wouldn't have believed it but guess which player was the cl... | |
| Comparing Wadia vs. Meitner rtn1, I didn't think Frank P. was making disparaging remarks about the Wadia. He simply was relating what the girl friend of the Wadia owner had stated. He had told me the same story over the phone some days ago. Maybe it came across differently i... |
