| CARY -- WHERE ARE THE CHECKS AND BALANCES? I agree that threads like this are difficult to assess; however, I think there is enough negative here from enough people that it would at least give me some pause if I was considering Cary. | |
| I need recommendations on Speakers for McIntosh McIntosh matches well with the B&W 800 series speakers, the current Diamond models. | |
| where can I purchase digital re-master cds In addition to elusivedisc.com, also try acousticsounds.com and musicdirect.com. Some of what can be found on any or all of these three sites may also be available on amazon. When that's the case, the amazon price will usually be less; however, wh... | |
| Kimber, Signal or Blue Jeans? I use Blue Jeans speaker cable and balanced interconnects. Wondering if I was missing out on anything, I did at one point audition Kimber 8tc speaker cable (which is about triple the cost of the 4vs) as well as Kimber Hero XLR interconnects and co... | |
| Need advice for B&W 804 diamond amplification I have the 804 Diamonds, use Musical Fidelity pre-amp and amp (M6PRE and M6PRX), and enjoy the result; however, my situation is strictly 2-channel. The amplification brands that I see discussed most frequently as good pairings with B&W are McI... | |
| BEST POWER AMP OR INTEGRATED AMP FOR HERESY 3 Up until a couple years ago, I used a NAD C372 with the original Heresy speakers (which isn't all that different from what you have), and I could crank it up well above where I'd ever care to listen. I think RW is right! | |
| Musical Fidelity AMS 35i or Accuphase E-560? In one of the online reviews that I read before I decided to purchase Musical Fidelity M6 series components, the reviewer specifically mentioned how well the M6 series components pair with ProAc speakers. The reviewer mentioned ProAc Response D Tw... | |
| B&W 804Di vs 803D plus center option I have the current 804 Diamond model, but I only use it for music. The tweeter in the current Diamond models is presumably better than the tweeter in the older D model. On the other hand, reproduction of base is presumably better in an 803 than in... | |
| An SACD question I still buy both new and used SACDs (but only the hybrid variety) and would hate to see them go away. However, I am just as likely to buy new or used CDs labeled as K2HD, XRCD, or Ultra HD. I also continue to buy both new and used redbook CDs, but... | |
| Matching up speakers and amps I have no first hand knowledge of Spendor speakers, but I recall reading a review on Musical Fidelity's current M6 product line that specifically mentioned a couple of speakers that pair very well with M6 components. One of the speakers mentioned ... | |
| Best place to tell what/when reissues are released One suggestion is to subscribe to elusivedisc.com, acousticsounds.com, and musicdirect.com newsletters. | |
| Beware: Unscrupulous potential buyers Doesn't asking the buyer to use Paypal or perhaps a postal money order solve these problems for the seller? Or is it possible to still get burned with those methods? | |
| where is another good place to search for b&w's? If you are just looking on the craigslist for your local area, don't overlook trying a google search which may turn up craiglist ads in other cities (as well as ads on other sites that you might not even have thought of). Of course, craigslist can... | |
| Warm Sounding Speakers Dsper, if you haven't already done so, I suggest doing a Google search on past online reviews that have been posted on the Krell 300si to see if any of them talk about specific speakers that mate well from the perspective of warmth. | |
| "BEST USED" CD player or players at about $1000 Agree with Jdub. If you have a $1000 to spend, I wouldn't go used at all. I'd go Oppo BDP-95 new. But then I have a bias that enters into the picture. There are lots of things I'd buy used (speakers or solid state electronics like amps, preamps, d... |
