| Alternatives to Revel Studios? I have a Audio Aero Capitol 2 as well. I also use it direct with a Cary V12-R with the oil cap upgrade. My choice of speaker is the Verity Audio Fidelio. They have very nice tight bass and unreal midrange. The speaker has great detail even at low ... | |
| Apple or PC? I have a 12" Powerbook with the superdrive and an 80 gig hard drive. I also upgraded the memory. I have Microsoft Office. I use it for everything from writting orders for work to IPhoto and Itunes. When I travel I can watch movies on the DVD playe... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1 24/192...Where to from here I owned an EMC-1UP for about two years and really enjoyed it and it worked perfectly. I had some extra funds and since my system only had one source I decided to sell my VK50SE preamp and EMC and try the direct route. I purchased the Audio Aero Ca... | |
| Balanced amp for Bat vk5i... Why not a BAT product, SS or tube the synergy would be very good! I had both the 75SE and a pair of VK60 mono's and both sounded great with my VK50SE preamp. | |
| Anyone pay 1st price, Even if it's fair ? Poll If I am looking for an item I have done my research and have a pretty good idea of what the fair market price for that item should be. If I find the said item listed at that price I will offer to buy it at asking price as I think most folks on thi... | |
| CDP-Front load with Top qualities Wadia 861 would work well and depending on your budget GNSC does some nice mods. If your system consists of only one source you can also run the 861 direct with no need for a preamp and it is one of the only front loaders that can compete with som... | |
| Best $4000-$5000 loudspeaker I would listen to a pair of used Verity Audio Fidelios. They excell at low level listeneing, but can play loud if need be! | |
| Full Range Speakers for 4000 or Less? I would try and find a pair of used Verity Audio Fidelios. They come up every once and awhile on this site for around $4000.00. Unreal midrange and a great big soundstage. These speakers really draw you into the emotion of the music, and I think t... | |
| Krell Reliability? Before I entered the world of tubes I owned a FPB-200c and a KRC 3 and had no issues at all. Everything worked the way it was supposed to, and customer service was great!! | |
| Do all Cary amps have a 'Cary' sound ? I purchased a Cary V12R about three months ago--it replaced a Music Reference RM 200, which replaced a BAT VK75SE, which replaced a pair of BAT VK 60 mono amps! I find the Cary to throw a huge soundstage and has great detail. Music feels alive and... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session As for the road bike--none finer then the Serotta Ottro( carbon/ti full custom sizing on every bike) with full Campy Record and a set of Mavic Ksyium's. If I am going to thrash around in the mud, I just picked up a Cannondale SL 4000 with the new ... | |
| Cary V-12i When the R version was first introduced the upgrade was $500.00. The R version is so much better it is scarry! When people found out how good the R version sounded thet would buy an I version for cheap and send it back for the R upgrade. The cost ... | |
| Would Audiogoners be interested in this? I think it would be great, wow--another excuse to hang out on this site. | |
| What speakers for BAT VK-75, 75SE or ARC VT-100s I had a BAT VK75SE that drove my Verity Audio Fidelio's really well. Great sounding speaker with some of the very best mid range I have heard! They have nice detail at low volume, but can also go loud if you feel the urge. | |
| Bat VK-51se vs. Atma-sphere MP-1 Mk II I can only say good things about BAT. I have owned my VK50SE for just over two years without any trouble at all. Sonically it was a huge step up from my Krell pre and the guys at BAT will talk to you any time--great customer service. I am going to... |
