| Jeff Rowland Hi Richard, I have listened at some length to Continuum S2 and Capri S2 And have heard comparative opinions of Continuum S2 with M525 from people that I respect who have considerable Rowland experience.Continuum S2 is based on the Pascal M2Pro mo... | |
| Question about High Fidelity Cables by. R. Schultz I have just started breaking-in two High Fidelity CT-1 power cords... These cords appear to be so meticulously constructed that they would not even know how to spell "cheap construction".... Remarkable creatures in fact. I will start to post my fi... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hi Matt, I'd be most interested in hearing your eventual opinion of the Regen on the Empirical and on the upcoming Bricasti M1... Do keep us posted. G | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hi Wisnon, what constitutes packet noise in this particular context?G. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Regen appears to be a jitter control device and an impedance regulator. I suspect it might have somewhat more beneficial effect on DAC USB inputs with lesser jitter control, and with some residual issues in input impedance management.... Of course... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD From a technical point of view, what is Regen? ... A re-clocker.... An input transformer.... Other?G. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hey AL, fab seeing you at this exotic watering hole... I am doing quite well, enjoying my Rowland Aeris DAC feeding directly the spectacular NCore-based Rowland M925 monos.... And a pair of wonderful Vienna Die Muzik, just like Matt's own.Saluti, ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Yep... I am your friend no longer Matt... In conscience I just can't... I mean.... I mean.... Having spent all this time corrupting -- oops... I meant converting -- you to the True Truth... And now you are Up-*Chokes!*-grading from the divine Vien... | |
| Speakers or Amplifier Hi Richard, at 350 Hours, M525 is far from delivering its proper bass. I have broken-in four Rowland amps this far... Invariably, bass optimized at approx. 800 hours.Best, Guido | |
| Speakers or Amplifier Hi Richard, Here is a different opinion... Your Bricasti DAC is not yet broken in. I recommend that you stay put until the unit has at least 800 hours on it... Its bass performance is bound to change in one direction or another, and finally stabil... | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions Tim, if you use a battery powered radio, and you find that one of the amps seems to leak, try sliding the radio along/around the amp case, and then along the power cord, the speaker wires, and the input ICs.... There is no telling from where the l... | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions Hi Tim, I recommend that you repeat test walking around with the radio as follows....Amp 1 on, 2 and 3 off;Amp 1 off, 2 on, 3 off;Amp 1 and 2 off, 3 on;Amp 1 and 2 on, 3 off;Amp 1 on, 2 off, 3 on;All three amps on.G. | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions Thank you Al, I conducted the test with an ancient tuner a few years ago.... Device is a rather low end NAD from approx. 1979. The tuner has a button that causes it to reject interference in FM... If the switch is in the off position, the device p... | |
| Jeff Rowland Hi Richard, the universal "true truth" non existing in audio, the ultimate beauty for one person is sometimes "not my cup of tea" for another one.So for example, while Jon feels that the Rowland sound is somewhat dark and rolled off at the top whi... | |
| Jeff Rowland Hi Richard, I do not expect Capri S2 to degrade the sound, but it is likely to modify the tembre very subtly.... Based on my memory of Continuum S2, which includes the Capri S2 linestage circuit, Sound might become slightly warmer, and probably th... |
