Whats playing on your system today? A RL version of Led Zeppelin ll which I just bought last week from a local used record store. Other than some scratches at the end of Thank You, it's in very good condition and incredibly dynamic. | |
ARC Ref 210...tube virgin I suggest a used Ref 150 or 150SE. IMHO both will outperform the Ref 210s in virtually all areas except dimensionality in which monos always beat stereo and perhaps (not really sure) ultimate power if you play at 100dbs which I never do. I had the... | |
Most compatible speaker/interconnect and power cables with ARC ref system? I've seen Shunyata, Sainline and Transparent at different times in the ARC listening rooms. Of course, that does not mean that others might not be better. I've tried Shunyata and Sainline cables and both are excellent with ARC. Service at both com... | |
THE most sonically dissappointing (lp) you own of great music? Most studio albums by R.E.M. | |
Albums you can listen too all the way through and it's all good Just listened to the Woodstock soundtrack album from beginning to end. What a rush of memories. Excellent album through and through and easy to enjoy in toto especially considering it's 3 discs. | |
Wilson Audio Sasha 2 vs Sophia 3 I have Sasha 1 with Ref 150 ( KT 150 tubes). No problems driving the Sashas. Back when I had the Ref 110 amp, I brought the Ref 210 monos in house to see how much better they would do with the Sashas. At the time, it was about 10% (mainly in dimen... | |
Wilson Audio Sasha 2 vs Sophia 3 I agree with ricred1 in all respects. | |
Yes "Fragile" How great of an album is it? I agree that the Yes album is their best. Not a bad note. Alas, not top 10.Also a fan of Tales from Topographic Oceans, then Close To The Edge, then Fragile. | |
Sain line system cables a hidden giant killer. The Sainline cables are excellent cables that rank with the very best. | |
BEST AMPS FOR WILSON SASHA The Sashas work with many more amplifiers than their measurements would suggest. Read Art Dudley's review in Stereophile available on the Stereophile website. Of those available to you, Pass Labs has a number of amplifiers that will excel with the... | |
Direction of aftermarket fuses (only for believers!) I say this with no disrespect to Al and Ralph whose comments I always read with great interest. | |
Direction of aftermarket fuses (only for believers!) I cannot believe I am still following this tiresome thread. Somebody stop me. | |
Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC ARC, Mac and Airtight will all work with Sabrinas and they will all sound completely different. The Mac--warm, rounded, rich but slightly veiled in comparison to ARC which will be more transparent, open and expansive, but not strident. I have owne... | |
Solid state amp to replace my Audio Research Ref 150 amp I don't think the Ref 150 is easily replaced by ss. The only one in a sane price range that I have heard and believe would give it a run is the Wells Innamorata. I have heard this amp in 2 settings and was very very impressed but have not done an ... | |
What's going on with the audio market? Dubya drove it to its knees. At least we are back up and standing, if a bit precariously. |
