| Esoteric X-01 Limited or new D-03/P-03 TVC, you can expect your X-01 to improve subtly up to 1200 hrs of operation. | |
| Break in period Thank you Shadorne, I understand of course that superstable high end devices whose sound is largely optimized out of the box are likely in the hundreds, or perhaps even in the thousands, and that this is not the place and time for an exhaustive li... | |
| Review: Machina dynamica Brilliant Pebbles Tweak What minerals are the BPs made from? | |
| Break in period Shadorne, could you tell us what you mean by 'quality of components', and could you give us some actual examples of high end gear you personally experience did not benefit from break in? | |
| Reference DACS: An overall perspective My apologies to Bill. Once again I have accidentally mistyped your moniker. Please rest assured that no pun, misplaced jocularity, nor artful slight was intended. However, given the fact that I do not see what I type, some occasional annoying homo... | |
| Reference DACS: An overall perspective AudioFail, I admire your sense of fairplay, but. . . you would not be commenting between what you sell and some other player. You would be telling us your impression between two current versions of a device you sell. . . thus no unfair competition... | |
| Break in period "I will re-iterate what I normally say to these threads; well designed audio electronics equipment and cables should NOT drift significantly (i.e. audibly)between the time you plug it in and a few hundred hours."laudable belief. Unfortunately real... | |
| Blind Shoot-out in San Diego -- 5 CD Players Thank you for the correction Ctm_cra. Actually yours is rather a clarification, as I had no prior hypothesis of the relative state of any of the test machines. I should like to point out that a TEAC UX-1/X-01 derivative with 200 hrs of playing tim... | |
| need new rack with isolation in mind Hel, how mechanically stable is your BLINN rack with maple shelves. And does any one know how Blinn's stability/isolation compares to ADONA racks with granite shelves? | |
| Blind Shoot-out in San Diego -- 5 CD Players Interesting. How many hours of operation had been previously logged on each player? E.G. my X-01 Limited continued to change/improve up to approx the 1200 hrs mark. Incomplete/uneven break in states would soften validity of any findings. I wish th... | |
| DCS Scarlatti - New Flagship Combo As far as I know, TEAC used to OEM only its lower end version of the VRDS transport. That is the basic/light version used for X-03 and UX-3, rather than the progressively higher end versions for X-01, P03/D03 and P01/D01. It will be interesting to... | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Alex, your explanation corroborates my empirical findings. I found the Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha much preferable to my ears to its shielded VX sibling on X-01. See:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?fcabl&1146623467&openusid&z... | |
| Recommendation Amp for MGIIIa Unsound, I have heard ARC CD3 Mk. 2 + ref 2 Mk. 2. + VT100 Mk. 3 + MG3.6. The combination was. . . delicious and reasonably authoritative. When the VT100 Mk. 3 was replaced with VT200, the sound turned to. . . impressive, and very musical. Still w... | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Alex, you made me curious! what types of PCs work best with linear PSs and what types with switching PSs? By the way, on my own X-01 Ltd I am using a Shunyata Helix Anaconda Alpha, rather than Purist Anniversary. |
