| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Yup, resurrecting this thread for an occasion to say...Working my way through Wilco studio CDs in chronological order. Summerteeth in now (gosh, this thing is LOUD). Overall, impressed with the arrangements, production and sound quality of their s... | |
| Hegel h200 low level listening Congratulations. Hope you enjoy it very much. | |
| Hegel h200 low level listening Hey Don - good luck with whatever you end up getting. That's too funny about the Hegel casework...personally, it doesn't bother me. FF poster is dating you...on the other hand, I might suggest Christie Brinkley from back in the day. | |
| Hegel h200 low level listening Don - listened to a couple of things tonight at (for me) very low levels. First, Diana Krall (SACD) "The Girl in the Other Room"; next, Crowded House (redbook CD) "Time on Earth". SPL (C weighted & Slow response) in the mid to upper 60s. I thi... | |
| Hegel h200 low level listening Mechans - we can start another thread and trade stories about how the Cybers are set up. Seriously...I'd enjoy reading how you run yours and, in particular, with what speakers. Donjr - hopefully you can get the Hegel AND keep the Rogue. Always nic... | |
| Hegel h200 low level listening Donjr - I am in love with my Hegel H200. I bought it used early this year intending to use it as backup for Consonance Cyber 800SE tube mono blocks. Since installing it, it has not left the system. It drives Totem Forest speakers. I'm not 100% sur... | |
| Totem Sttaf Jw - good luck in your hunt. | |
| Totem Sttaf Jw & Bd - yup...break in time from the Totem site is less for the Sttafs than what they recommend for the Forests. Still, for me, the Forests seemed to take much longer than the listed hours to come into their own. Maybe that will be true for ... | |
| Totem Sttaf Jwglista- I wondered whether your Staffs were fully run-in while reading your original post. If my experience with Totem Forests is anything to go by, I'd expect things will improve over another 50-100 hours. The bass on the Forests was mostly MIA... | |
| Comments pls.: TEAC vs Marantz CD/SACD players Thanks for your comments Newbee. Took a look at your system - some nice gear [but based on a quick scan of it's history since '03, I'm wondering if "Done For Now" is quite the right place for it ;-) ].Good to know the Marantz compares well to the ... | |

| Comments pls.: TEAC vs Marantz CD/SACD players Hey Nonoise - glad to hear from you. Was sort of hoping you would jump in. I followed your post on your new Marantz. Glad you are enjoying it. Curious with respect to CD playback if you can make any general comments comparing the sound of the TEAC... | |
| Comments pls.: TEAC vs Marantz CD/SACD players I do appreciate the comments but no one yet with any direct experience of either the TEAC or Marantz??? Dsper - what Oppo are you referring to? | |
| Cleaning Method Corazon - Be careful with ammonia. Ammonia or any solution with alkaline pH (>8) will NOT be good for aluminum. | |
| Comments pls.: TEAC vs Marantz CD/SACD players Thanks all. Tom6897 - the Marantz does in fact use a Burr Brown converter. Appreciate your comment. |
