| The most emotional amp out there? I completely agree with Mike. I would also add when some throw around the term emotional they are ingoring the vast range of emotion itself! They type of emotion associated with say acapella female singing would be quite different from head bangin... | |
| What is the best hard drive based player? How does an IPOD (with Apple lossless compression files) feeding into the main system compare to such hard disk drive players in terms of sound quality? | |
| What is the best hard drive based player? Thanks Jtgale. What is the memory capacity of the Yamaha? | |
| Best Sounding In Walls Thiel's in wall speakers seem to be getting good reviews. | |
| What is the best hard drive based player? thanks ..will definitely check them out. For some reason I find very little literature on these players: onlty PC driven solutions which are great but obviously requires a screen which I want to avoid! | |
| APL 3910, Exemplar 3910, MF KW, Esoteric X-01? Within your price range and 2 channel only, I would recommend also including the new Ayre 5x Universal player on your auditioning list. I tried it only briefly within an unfamiliar set up but seemed very good indeed though I still prefer my EMM ge... | |
| Which speakers excel at low volume? other things being equal, it probably makes sense to focus on speakers that imaging champs if you mainly listen low levels....will able to "hear" more detail and depth than usual....this may also mean a narrower sweet spot so need to be consider. | |
| Mini monitors? wow, lots of recommendations...definitely have my work/auditoning cut out for me! | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? there are simply too many....so let's turn this around. Who is the most over-rated? To start out a bit controversially...for me one is Steve Vai. Great technique, no soul nor character. It ain't music to me. Don't get me wrong I do like metal at t... | |
| VAC Ren II, VAC Phi, or ARC Ref 3? Though I have not owned or listed to the Accuphase units (all that have discussed above) over a long period, whenever I hear them: redbook CDs...don't like it: pre-ocuppied with pace and sounds digital: SACD: much better, a bit romatic but prefer ... | |
| Best headphones you've ever heard/used anyone tried the new Qualia (Sony) Headphones? | |
| What Guitarists Remind You Of SRV Or Hendrix? Most of the above plus Los Lonely Boys | |
| Regarding DK Design Vs.1 Reference Mk2 amp ??? HP (Absolute Sound) has been hinting at some amp that is going to change the world during the last 2 issues...personally I find him far too....pretentious?...one wonders what he is referring to. | |
| Best CDP in the $4k to $8k range Audtion the new "universal" player from Ayre (model # is 5x or something)...actually its only 2 channel and does not do DVD-A so the universal mkting ploy is a bit misleading: but great redbook performance (Ayre's DVD/CD players were always good) ... | |
| Best CD player now made. if below US$10,000....(not sure exactly about the price pts) I would recommend Reimyo, the new dCS P8i, Aero Capital Mk2 with the upgrades, and Wadia 861. Personally for just redbook among the above Reimyo was the best for me. |
