| Amplifier for Harbeth 40.2 Only one road leads to Rome and that is always mono blocks, whatever the brand. | |
| Listening Levels for Classical Music / Slightly electronic sound at high levels This is probably wrong but I think not impossible. What you hear might be your Pass transistors' artifacts that were masked by less resolving speakers. In my analog based solid state system I don't hear what you described, but there is always some... | |
| What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ? benjie, I see. As I understood so far, only slight negatives can be less than perfect precision, speed, dynamics and resolution. Overall, Pass seems to be an excellent choice for many people. Size can be a problem in smaller rooms but look at some... | |
| Stage III Concepts Cables - Any Advice/Feedback/Thoughts is deeply appreciated. fsmithjack, that's interesting, isn't it ? I discovered it some time ago. Now you will just have to make a decision. And it certainly confirms that Stage III power cords are great, especially with some particular equipment. In my system Purist Aud... | |
| Listening Levels for Classical Music / Slightly electronic sound at high levels I don't know much about digital but I did hear an opinion that many people underestimated the importance of digital cables. Just a thought. | |
| Stage III Concepts Cables - Any Advice/Feedback/Thoughts is deeply appreciated. My philosophy is to keep cables at least one step ahead of the active components because in this case I should be able to hear everything the active components are capable of. The same with power cords.Signal transmission is very important, and it... | |
| Listening Levels for Classical Music / Slightly electronic sound at high levels Here is my hypothesis, and I am sorry if I am right. What you hear with your very high resolution speakers are digital artifacts, something that you could not hear with your Thiel speakers. Whether they come from the recording, from your dac, from... | |
| Headphones? I could use your experience/thoughts. Yeah, I've been using Grado 225 for a few years, mostly with computer. I had 80 before and I heard 60. I am also very familiar with RS -1. Wanted to upgrade to them but spent the audiophile money on something else. But I'll get them. | |
| What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ? Do you think it is possible for some of you to take it outside of my thread ? Please give it a try. | |
| What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ? Hmm.. California style...I mean Pass amps. | |
| Headphones? I could use your experience/thoughts. I would get Grado SR225, $100 more but much better, this is Grado's best value, after that you jump straight to $700 RS-1. Yeah, headphone amp too, there are some for about $100. | |
| How often do you have to service your Studer or Otari deck ? Home not pro environment. captain_winters, thank you. I don't have open reel deck yet, this is my future project and it will take time. I am just gathering information and opinions regarding what might be involved in using those pro machines. Otari is more likely for me th... | |
| Best CDs Good cd on good player should not sound "awful", something is definitely wrong. Unless you have zero tolerance for digital, then nothing will help.CEC belt drive players definitely do not sound awful, even 20 years old. I rarely play cds, though. | |
| What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ? Are Pass amps somewhat 'lazy', not quite fast and dynamic enough ? | |
| Stage III Concepts Cables - Any Advice/Feedback/Thoughts is deeply appreciated. I am at a much lower level of performance, power cord on my Redgum integrated cost new more that the integrated. I bought both used and paid about the same for each. My speaker cables cost new exactly the same as speakers, and my main interconnect... |
