What are the "new" brands in amps and pre-amps GlenfihiThis year, just as my three daughters all finished college, they each became engaged - three weddings in one year! If you can swing it, don't wait to get yourself a goodie or two along the way! | |
What are the "new" brands in amps and pre-amps There are many that deserve an audition. In amps Nuforce, Channel islands, and Hegel. In preamps Audio Horizons and TRL Dude | |
System Upgrades I moved from Aragon 8008BB amp to Nuforce Ref V3Se's and found that they were much better, if the rest of the chain is up to it and you control for vibration, weight them down and use electrically isolate them from other equipment. | |
Experiences with Blu-ray players Kr4 I confess I am lost. Manual for BDP-S580 Sony page 22-23 talks about this. I am concluding that the only way to hear SACD, even two channel SACD is with a Player that plays SACD, connect via HDMI to a precessor that accepts HDMI, not a preamp ... | |

Has anyone experianced Synesthesia? Andrew, There is a great book by brain scientist Oliver Sacks, called Musicophilia that discusses synthethesia in great variety and detail - evidently it is much more common than thought. He also describes the power of music and many other interes... | |
Experiences with Blu-ray players A wife pleasing cheap ($200) alternative would be Sony BDP-S580. I use it to play SACD via digital coax to my dac/preamp Ayon CD5s combo and in that config it does well used as transport. It has been very reliable. Can try from Best Buy if you don... | |
CD PLAYER Depending on what you do not like about your unit the Ayon CD5s may be worth an audition - Rock solid reliable and really refined yet exciting sound. I preferred to the Meridian 808.3 | |
Placement of electronics Buconeroll can you estimate the cost of a Furtech panel? I could not find anywhere on the web. They do look attractive. | |
