| EMC-1 Owners Spider Alert If you can put that deal together I would love it. Almost pulled the trigger on one last week. How tough are they to install? Bill | |
| Best sounding player under $3500 Used ? You should listen to the Electrocompaniet, I find it to be very analog sounding player. | |
| Jazz drum music recommendations? The list is long, but a couple that come to mind are Bill Bruford and Dave Weckel. | |
| Verity Parsifal Encore I think much of how these speakers are going to sound is very room dependant. When I auditioned these speakers I found thay sounded better in my room with the woofers firing backwards. After that, I auditioned the Fidelios and found them to be jus... | |
| Wadia 861 or keep Electrocompaniet mk2 Thanks to all for the great imput! Once again it seems there is no short cut or magic bullet. I will audition a couple of players that can be used direct and let my ears be the judge. You have all helped a great deal, and that is what makes this s... | |
| Silverline Bolero vs Verity Fidelio I would have to disagree with the above post. I have owned a pair of Fidelios for almost two years now and I think they are one of the very best speakers for the money. I understand that a lot of what you hear is system dependent so I will list wh... | |
| Are internet sales taking business or not? There is no question that the internet is crushing high end audio retailers. Think about it, why are you here? we can all say that it is because of poor sales help--they don't care, whatever. But the real issue is that the retailer can not compete... | |
| any krell power amplifier users use tube preamps? Call Krell and they will either tell you how to do it, or fax you a sheet on how to do it. A few years back I had a FBP200C that I was using with my BAT VK50SE and it was great. It's no big deal to remove the top of the amp--heck I did it! Good lu... | |
| Balanced Tube Preamps I Should Try You should look at a used BAT VK50SE. I have seen them on this site for around $4000.00. I have owned mine for about three years and is the only piece I have not sold off for something else. The 50SE is upgradable if you decide to do so in the fut... | |
| Is an hibryd amp solid/tube a good choice ? I had a Music Reference RM-200 that was fantastic. It was so good that after I sold the first one and replaced it with a BAT VK60, I sold the BAT and bought another RM-200. Very transparent, tight bass and wonderful detail even at low levels. They... | |
| Bill Frisell Hey, Bill Frisell is doing some quest work on the brand new Rickie Lee Jones disc--sounds pretty good!! | |
| Bill Frisell All of the recordings listed in the above posts are all fantastic. The more you listen to them the more you are drawn in to his style. I never get tired of listening to him. | |
| Cary V12i vs V12R??? I just purchased a Cary v12i and find the amp to be just as good as it is supposed to be. My system consists of a BAT VK50SE preamp and Electrocompaniet CDP, and a pair of Verity Audio Fidelio speakers. I swapped the stock 6922's for some Telefunk... | |
| Verity Fidelio, Alon Lotus Elite & Merlin VSM-M? I have a pair of Fidelio's that I love. I have had them for just over a year now. I am driving them with a Cary V12-I, and an Electrocompaniet CDP. Positioning the speakers was very easy, and they are easy to drive. As I am sure you have heard the... | |
| Worst remote nomination... The remote on my Electrocompaniet CD player is the cheapest thing I have seen. Great player--just love it--but come on, charge a little extra and give us something proud to put on the table! The remote for my BAT 50SE pre is really nice. |
