| $2500 amp and pre/pro Ultraviolet,I like the Anthem suggestion as well. If I were to upgrade my HT, I'd definitely look into them. One thing though. I'd consider adding a Vienna Acoustics Maestro or Theatro center channel to your system. I think it would improve everyt... | |
| Trelja- announcement and disclaimer Good luck Joe, and thanks for the heads up.I don't seen any reason why you can't continue to post your opinions in the forums. In fact, I think your insight into the Fried philosophy could be very helpful. Any info on releases or a website?Above a... | |
| For those of you that love Brazilian music... Dennisb,I received Casa and have been playing it almost continuously since. I totally agree with Dearings assessment of this CD. Just fantastic in all regards. I had no idea Sakamoto could play the piano with such touch and emotion.Thanks for shar... | |
| Luminous Audio Axiom passive pre any good? I did a 5 preamp comparison last summer and the AXIOM was one of those in the test. The short answer is yes, this is pretty good, and for $150 with the Caddock upgrade some might say it's fantastic.However, this didn't turn out to be my favorite a... | |
| Stooges: Complete Funhouse Sessions.... Are you talking about the box set with Curly or Shemp?Bee-Ayy-Bayy,Bee-Eee-Beee,Bee-Ayy-Bicky-Bye... | |
| Neuance & Zoethecus,EMC-1UP & First Sound Preamp? Generally speaking, I've heard some people say they felt the Zoethecus products added a bit of smearing or warmth, whereas the Neuance Shelves seem to have the opposite effect.I have a Zoethecus z.Block 2 with a z.Slab for my amp and a Neuance She... | |
| WAF Alert: McCormack DNA .5 on Vandersteen 2W sub? Wow! So Jon, you're the one that got Marco started on his downward spiral into Audiophile Hades? Personally, I think a highly creative goofball like Jax2 would have found another insanely expensive outlet for his creativity even if you hadn't let ... | |
| What artist piqued your interest? Wow, that's some neat stuff you listen to Ashra. I'll need to look into them. Thanks! | |
| WAF Alert: McCormack DNA .5 on Vandersteen 2W sub? You shouldn't be too influenced by what Marco has done with his sandbox. He isn't really using it in his audio system. He just needed an excuse to build one so he could play in it. He can also hide a lot of things in there too, like playing cards ... | |
| To Hot to Handle? Ahh, Dan.I can see that you still have upgrade-itis and your taste seems to be changing as well. I didn't think you'd be selling the DNA125 for awhile, but I guess all the time you've been spending with Christy has filled your head with thoughts o... | |
| What artist piqued your interest? My Dad's Chet Atkins LP when I was only 5 or 6.I listened to mostly rock and R&B through the '70's, then added new wave, new age and modern jazz in the '80's.In 1986 I saw the 8th International Tchaikowsky Competition on PBS and started re-exp... | |
| HE2004 Pictures - Kudos to Albert Porter Well at least Albert's wife won't be reading any incriminating threads over his shoulder until Slappy starts posting again, heheh. | |
| HE2004 Pictures - Kudos to Albert Porter Albert I had no idea you had this arrangement with Audiogon, it's great, and I think it would be a great idea for you to cover all future shows!And since you got in so much trouble with your wife for fighting over strippers with Mattybumpkin at th... | |
| Audioquest Cables for Calming treble I'm a big fan of Audience and Acoustic Zen as well.They have the attributes I think you're looking for and don't sacrifice detail, soundstaging or dynamics in a significant manner. In fact I think they excel in those areas as well. The AZ Matrix R... | |
| HE2004 Pictures - Kudos to Albert Porter Albert, neither of those lovely ladies is Christy, but they'll do just fine! |
