| How good is Benchmark DAC1 comparing to...... Dne's juvenile defensiveness over the DAC1 reminds me a lot of Natalie and his/her treasured Coincidence CSTs. | |
| Which amp for the Proac 2.5s You may want to look at this thread which was initiated earlier today:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?cspkr&1106728076 | |
| ProAC 2.5 users please share experience on amp Drew, I've heard the same thing about the association between ProAc and ARC. They even shared the same room at the 2003 CES Show in Alexis Park when ProAc was showing the then new D80 speaker. | |
| Couples therapy on the DK Design website Yeah, but I'd brag too if I were banging Kim Cattral.Start worrying if their advertising starts to look like Alpha-Core's, heheh. | |
| Do folks use contact enhancing liquids with sucess Seymore Butts recommends Wet Light. | |
| What's wrong with this system? "Danger, Will Robinson!" is right!In 1995 when I could first afford it, I went out and bought an NAD CD player and receiver with NHT satellites and sub.Although I'd never heard a really good system, I thought the same thing as you, "a lot of music... | |
| ProAC 2.5 users please share experience on amp Hi Derick, I got your e-mail.Actually, I've only tried one amp with the 2.5s. The BAT VK200. A year and a half ago when I was running ProAc 1SCs I did a shoot out with some amps that included the VK200, Blue Circle BC22, an older Bryston 4B and a ... | |
| Help with Soundstage effect improvements Yeah, I wish I'd known what Newbee just said five years ago when I boarded this non-stop merry-go-round called high end audio.Spending a lot of money on cables and such won't help a sonically challenged environment.Stay with the budget cables for ... | |
| Mixing silver IC with silver/copper speaker cable? I pretty much agree with Thorman. I've tried all copper, all silver and currently run a mix of both.Whether or not an all silver configuration will sound too bright depends on your equipment, the cables you choose and your ears. It's difficult to ... | |
| What time do you wear? After drooling over the Stainless Breitling Navitimer Fighter for two years, I'm very happy with the Seiko Flight Chronograph I bought for myself this past Christmas. Plus, I feel much better about spending only $235 instead of $2500-$5300. | |
| Isolation Platforms...worthwhile? Yeah, there's been a lot of discussion here on this topic over the last few years. Many varying opinions and different schools of thought. Run some searches in the forums.For what it's worth, I really like the Neuance Shelf under my transport. | |
| For Lugnut & Barb (Patrick & Barbara Malone) Pat,You're a good person and as I've found from our worldly discussions, a true patriot.Enjoy the burger, fries and soda more often! Next time while sitting in front of your new system.Dean | |
| Where to put damping sheets? I noticed a similar phenomena to what Nrchy is relating when I experimented with those Mapleshade brass weights on top of my transport. Too many of them or too heavy, deadened the sound. I'm guessing the same might happen with dampening strips. | |
| Spanish Guitar Yes, there is a real difference between the neo flamenco people like Jesse Cook, Ottmar, etc. [which I do like] and the REAL guys like Montoya. Some might say it's like comparing Kenny G to John Coltrane, although I think that's an insult to the n... | |
| Causes of long term listening fatigue? I'm a bit more simple minded than the other respondants.The only way I ever know if I'll have listening fatigue with a pair of speakers is to buy them and live with them in my system.If I can read a good book for hours while sitting in front of th... |
