NAD M50.2 I just returned from Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver. Great experience. Unfortunately, the NAD room didn't have a 50.2 on display.I spoke with the Aurender folks and they said they would have a new transport/memory device available within 6 mo... | |
Is anyone going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest? When I was in the Gryphon room, they were spinning CDs. They achieved great sound. | |
Is anyone going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest? I agree, the Gryphon room was impressive. It was my wife's favorite. | |
Is anyone going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest? No. Missed that one. | |
Is anyone going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest? Best Bang for the Buck: Paradigm. | |
Is anyone going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest? I was trying to be kind. I'm not good at it!;) | |
Is anyone going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest? Just spent the day at RMAF. I would never bash a manufacturer for poor show sound. So I won't. Best sound by a decent margin was the Nagra suite. All Nagra electronics driving a pair of Wilson Alexia 2s. Rich, engaging, detailed music. | |
Preamp for Dan D'Agostino Momentum monoblock amps This is probably more than a day late and a dollar short, but I am using an Audio Research Reference 6 to feed a D'Agostino Momentum S-250. It's hugely musical. I couldn't be more pleased. | |
D'Agostino vs. Ayre Let me say this: I know the components I'm running right now might not be drop-dead neutral. But, Man, that slightly modified Audio Research Reference 6 feeding the D'Agostino Master Audio Systems Momentum S-250 is So Musical. Wow! Even Dan D'Agos... | |
NAD M50.2 I'm not an electronics engineer, so don't crucify me, Ok? LolBut, from what I understand, CDs are PCM data, pulse code modulation. So the PCM datastream is not only digital steps, but also sampled at uniform intervals. Therefore the data must also... | |
NAD M50.2 And for who is interested, PS Audio is offering a trade-in program for cash credit toward a Directstream transport. My Perfectwave is headed to Colorado as a trade-in next week. | |
NAD M50.2 Hi avlee,I don't want to blow up this thread by jumping off topic, because I truly am interested in the 50.2.But let me say this, I currently have my Perfectwave transport sitting one shelf directly above the Directstream transport. All I have to ... | |
NAD M50.2 Thanks for the info, avlee. When it comes to digital, with me, all bets are off. I used to have a PS Audio Perfectwave transport. It supposedly took data off the CD numerous times, and dumped that data into a buffer. So, in theory, the data should... | |
NAD M50.2 I know this is a tough or unanswerable question since you bought the NAD, but do you suspect the sound quality is as good, as say, Aurender through a great DAC? And I am pretty computer illiterate when it comes to computers in audio systems, but o... | |
D'Agostino vs. Ayre As a proponent of the Synergistic Black fuse in my Audio Research Reference 6, I was curious how the new Blue fuse would sound. Simply put, I do not like it in my system. It's as if some of the energy has been zapped from the presentation, especia... |
