| future of 2 channel CD sound I'm extremely happy with the capability of my Redbook setup for the most part. The problem as I see it is the old "garbage in = garbage out" adage. If the studios keep turning out a POOR product it wont matter how resolved the output is. I have r... | |
| Digital to Analog-Converter needed? Good point Joey54,I am running a CD transport, computer and DVD-A/SACD source all off a single DAC that I am very pleased with. I get a very consistent two channel sound. The more I dive into the computer side the more I am using it exclusively as... | |
| Amp upgrade ? I am still breaking in the Modwright SWL 9.0 Signature model (new caps). So far it's incredible, I hooked up the Levinson No. 27 (paid $1400 local) to my Aerial model 6's. I am pulling the 23.5 and have decided to bite the bullet - sending it back... | |
| Amp upgrade ? I'm running a ML 23.5 now and I'm quite happy BUT I get the loud "pop" when it shuts off. I'm thinking it's cap time and thats going to make me sad. It weighs as much as I do and Harmon isnt going to take it easy on me. I am curious what the tot... | |
| Warner and Blu ray? Word on the street is the hackers have already cracked Blu-ray but there is no way to efficiently move that much data on the Internet ... whats the point if it's going to be compressed into Xvid or DivxX? I suppose they did it just to take a whac... | |
| Levinson 432 VS. Bryston 4 BSST I just sat in on a demo of the Aerial 20T speakers. Source was the Levinson 390S powered by a Levinson 432 power amp ... I'm still shaking. It was absolutely breathtaking and the best setup I have heard in recent memory, maybe ever. I'm currently ... | |
| ac cables falling out of IEC inlets on amps I'm getting in late on this one but I have the same problem. The higher up the component on my rack, the more weight pulling down on the power connection and I was getting sporadic disconnection. I bought two less massive PC's but I prefer the lar... | |
| How to tunr FLAC into Apple Lossless Hello,The various forums describe the process from simple to impossible. Here is one idea I found :(Foobar is a free download - google it ... )No need to re-rip. Use Foobar's batch converter to convert all the files to WMA Lossless, then import th... | |

| the smoothest sounding speaker I personally love the Aerial 6's - I have a small square room (12 X 15)... lots of clean SS power (Levinson 23.5) and some acoustic room treatments. I am upgrading to the Aerial 9's as soon as I can find a nice set in Rosewood. I like the idea of ... | |
| Krell KPS 25SC I had an older KPS (20i) and really liked the sound but I talked to a Krell tech about maintenance/service and was told the laser assembly had become obsolete. He told me once the laser unit dies I have a 60 pound paper weight. Krell had no way of... | |
| New Oppo DV-980H I bought two Oppo DV-981HD and Im using them both for video and two channel. I got burned on a high end DVD purchase and decided to stick with cheaper technology since I'll probably replace them before they wear out. My main system is a Levinson ... | |
| Signal Cable Analog 2 I have used/tried most of the stuff Frank sells and he has made numerous custom cables for me. I have used the analog one's and two's and have had good luck sonically with them. I had the blue sleeve on one pull back and sent it in - Frank fixed i... | |
| 30 Years, 5 Cities, Many Storms - Not One Failure I gambled and lost ... cable box, two PC's, Nakamichi amp, garage door opener and a TV.AND I MEAN it melted them down ... nothing could even be repaired. It was a total loss. | |
| levinson differences I bought a No. 23.5 and a No. 27 and I will never part with them. For the money the 23.5 is absolutely the best amp I have ever owned. I keep thinking about the Pass Labs X350.5 or X250.5 but the price is way out there. I'd think it better to put ... |
