| Differences the Project RS2 Transport and the (newest) Jay's Audio CD2 Mk 3 @charles1dad Will do as they will be in the same location for a few weeks at least though unlike the CDT2 the new unit won't have the hours on it. The units are going in two different houses in two different states in the end. The CDT2 Mk3 will... | |
| Differences the Project RS2 Transport and the (newest) Jay's Audio CD2 Mk 3 @charles1dad I have no doubt that the Pro-ject is a great sounding unit though not as robustly built as the Jays and I was attempting to buy one to do the comparison. In the process I have communicated with over a half a dozen fairly large v... | |
| Differences the Project RS2 Transport and the (newest) Jay's Audio CD2 Mk 3 At this point in time it's kind of irrelevant as to which one is better than the other as Jays is the only one who can actually deliver the product for purchase at least in the US. According to several dealers I talked to they have RS2 T back or... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport High Fidelity and 6 Moons both have units in for review with the High Fidelity review due in about a week. Alvin advised me that the units are shippable in 7-10 days just like the CDT2. As per usual the 6 Moons preview is up and is added to regula... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Alvin Are they ready for immediate delivery in both colors? | |

| Don Sachs Owners Thread And that is the difference between the two combos. When you are matching tube preamps with amps and speakers you have to take into account the total gain of the combo or you will get hiss. If you have to get to that close a distance to hear it the... | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread Depending on the input sensitivity/gain of the Cherry amps with the 18db gain of the Sachs and the 91db efficiency of your speakers what you are hearing is normal. Especially if the input sensitivity of the amp is under 2 volts. | |
| audible illusions vs supratek, vs holoaudio vs backert @gwng8 Congrats good choice. | |
| 5AR4 rectifier tube question Andy's got a 70's Sylvania that he likes that's the same price as the Matsushita so if you want to try two to see if you hear a difference you could buy those two for less than the price of one Blackburn Mullard. Be warned though that Andy is way... | |
| 5AR4 rectifier tube question All Kevin's showing for sale are the four Russian new production brands which are pretty much the same tube with different labels and boxes. For NOS 5AR4's that work and may outlast you call Andy at Vintage Tube Services. Don't waste your effort ... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread @aldnorab If your talking about the RAL umbilical it does make a very positive difference and Brad will make it the length you need. I've got one for the Chardonnay and will get one for the Cabernet when it arrives. | |
| Intergrated Amp suggestions for B&W 805d4 Based on what's available in Australia I would look into Audia Flight. | |
| Wilson Sasha DAW - Ideal Integrated Amp For Streaming Audia Flight FLS10 at around $11k. Or depending on the actual efficiency of the Sasha's the Norma Audio IPA-140B. Both are made in Italy. |
