| Walsh Ohm 100 MKII; anybody owned these? 600w?! Wow, I hope the Series 3 drivers for the Walsh 100's can do well with my 80 watts of hybrid power from my Unico. I figure that if I like the Super 2 w/Series 3 drivers enough, I'll eventually sell my Unico and replace it with a modded Bel C... | |
| Walsh Ohm 100 MKII; anybody owned these? Thanks for the info everybody. I have a pair of oak Walsh Super 2's (an old model cabinet) with the new Series 3 drivers ordered and I should have it paired with my Unico within two weeks. I look forward to hearing how it sounds; will post impress... | |
| Mac Mini or MacBook to Tact to MF X-DACv3 I too use a computer setup (I actually used to send the signal to a X-DAC V3 like you), and I think that I can answer most of your questions, probably not in the most in-depth way but I think I can provide you with some insights. Regarding your fi... | |
| Music Fidelity X-V3 Bundle vs MF Trivista or A324 I use mine with my computer as well (Waveterminal U24 soundcard) and it sounds great. I can't say how sensitive it is to transports because I've done no extensive testing, but the DAC2 does to a certain degree attempt to re-clock to remove jitter ... | |
| Music Fidelity X-V3 Bundle vs MF Trivista or A324 My advice to you: given the low prices that DAC2's are selling for on Audiogon these days (you'd pay at least $500 more for a Trivista, almost half the cost of a used DAC2) I would suggest you try out the DAC2 first. It is really a great piece and... | |
| Music Fidelity X-V3 Bundle vs MF Trivista or A324 I used to own the whole V3 bundle, and was not impressed. Too cold sounding to me, even with all three boxes. I replaced it with a Bel Canto DAC 2 and the music started to flow naturally. If you're looking at MF gear, get the Trivista 21 and forge... | |
| Is this the future of the next CD player Kana75- I'm very aware of ripple noise, e.m.i. and r.f.i. from PC's and monitor power supplies. To me they just add to the fun factor of any system. They are one of my favorite "tweaks" if you will, like Walker SST Extreme, a glass of red wine, an... | |
| Is this the future of the next CD player My LCD monitor runs completely silent. Dead silent. A PC can be located in another room as I mentioned before, or a silent PC could simply be placed out of the way, say behind a shelf or somewhere where you wouldn't even hear the roar of its silen... | |
| Is this the future of the next CD player "Some people don't want a a noisy PC/monitor in their listening room."Since when were monitors noisy? Unless you're using a CRT, which are rapidly getting phased out by affordable and virtually silent LCD's. The solution that I'm creating for myse... | |
| Is this the future of the next CD player I think that what people have already begun to realize with these types of products is that computers have eliminated the need for CD players. Just like Ericrulifson said, even the best products out there right now that try to emulate CD players a... | |
| What format are most people using, and why? FLAC. Foobar is awesome and I hate Apple products. | |
| Which DAC for computer based system? If I were you, I would use the U24 for now as your DAC and then wait until the new Bel Canto DAC 3 comes out. I currently use a U24 and the Bel Canto DAC 2 with great results and am waiting for the DAC 3 to be released. The DAC 3 will be within yo... | |
| Benchmark Dac 1 vs Bel Canto Dac 2 ????????????? I can second a positive vote for the DAC 2 as I own it; I can't vouch for Nealhood's opinions on the Benchmark, although in all the threads I have read at Headfi that discuss it people that enjoy it either like what seems to me to be somewhat life... | |
| Home made absorption panels..... Does the bookcase filled with books thing really work? If so, would it be better than, say Tvad's homemade panels? I have two bookcases full of books that I could use for this purpose but before I was thinking of draping a cloth over them so they'... | |
| Tube rolling suggestions for Unison Unico I suggest you email Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio, I recently bought 3 different platinum pairs of 12AU7's for my Unico (I got the Mullards, the Radiotechniques, and the Siemens; I have yet to try them yet, I need to get speakers first to pair with ... |
