| Simaudio versus Accuphase? Thanks Bill, i believe i can get the A-70 and the c-2420 for the same price i paid for the sim gear at japanese prices. I am getting the same impression. I just never heard Accuphase, but looking forward to. The other issue is fitting in the quadr... | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? Just received the Transparent upgrades. Wow!!! Everything got tight and warm. Its not even burned in yet. Went with Reference SC (pre-owned), and three Ultra IC including the XLR phono. $10,000 later. Better be worth it. System just got more expen... | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? Mikey, yes i am using Ktema. I believe the brightness roots from the Nordost Frey Phono IC and not so much from the Ktemas. With that said, FS has the typical SF sound. I made the plunge yesterday and ordered Reference SC and three Ultra IC. One I... | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? Thank you all. I just upgraded my junction box on my VPI from RCA to XLR. Originally had nordost Frey rca, but since the junction bix change i switched to TA music plus IC. The sound got louder, but the clarity decreased. The bass is not as tight ... | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? For the price increase, i sure hope so. Thank you. What are they calibrating the cables to? | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? Dealer here in seattle stated the Ultra and Reference were kissing cousins and differed by when purchasing Reference you get custom caliberation and spikes on the boxes to keep them off the floor. How important is the custom caliberation or will t... | |
| Unbalanced to balanced VPI junction box change? Thank you for the great info, but i am confused as ever. Let me clarify, i was refering to needing to upgrade to balanced IC and not tone arm wiring. The vpi balanced junction box comes with the Valhalla wiring. My dealer was explaining the balanc... | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? Well, mattmiller, i already own the Transparent line, so your posts dont help much. Yes, i could try another line, but honestly i like these cables. True, there may be better cables and i may try a few prior to upgrading. I have tried Nordost and ... | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? May be a silly question, but upgrading only the speaker cable will be sufficient enough to hear a difference or need to change the IC also? | |
| Italian speakers:Sonus Faber,Chario,Diapason,Opera True, he did pass away last year, but his speakers are still in production. His nephew took over the company. There will be a review of the accordos in the next Tone publication. Best sounding italian speakers i have heard and i did a A/B comparis... | |
| Transparent Cable Upgrade? Thank you, i posted on the other thread. | |
| Italian speakers:Sonus Faber,Chario,Diapason,Opera Dtc, true, but both the Ktemas and Accordos are still in production. Maximillo, the nephew took over the company. I have a pair of Ktemas. Best speakers i have ever heard. If talking italian speakers, FS should be in the conversation. | |
| Italian speakers:Sonus Faber,Chario,Diapason,Opera How can you not add Franco Serblin speakers to this of italian speakers? No, they not SF speakers. | |
| Ktema Accordo vs. Vienna Acoustics Kiss Great to hear you have been blessed to hear the accordos. I have heard them also and have not been able to find a better sounding speaker. Of course Franco's focus is the dynamic mids which was his focus with his long lines of SF's speakers. You a... | |
| Best Metal Vinyl Album I do own Black Sabbath 13 on digital. I'm always reluctant to buy new vinyl since it is recorded in digital. With that said, it's a great album I enjoy it immensely. |
