Stereo amplifier for a pair of passive subwoofers.
Well, everyone agreed on the Bryston units and I know these are tremendous amplifiers. Their 20 years warranty is incredible, although they last longer than that !!! The problem is, every unit ( except from EBay) seems to be around $700 or more. I...

TRL Sony 2000es or RAM Toshiba 3960
Sorry if my words were confusing Lkdog, I don't mean it. I just want to state that both units are in a different price range ( Sony/Marantz). The Toshiba is a big achiever but nothing spectacular. Here " http://www5.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.p... 
TRL Sony 2000es or RAM Toshiba 3960
The Sony 2000ES cost around $249-300 and the Marantz SA-8260 is a $1,000-$1,200 unit, so , it is a lot more. I own a Toshiba SD-3960 and compared to the 2000ES, the construction difference is HUGE. The Sony is much better in every respect. I would... 
Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?
I drive a Mitsubishi 1990 Space Wagon which retails about less than a used McCormack DNA-0.5 ( $800 )..... :( 
Is it caused by the transport or the dac?
Sorry but, which unit is your new transport? You talked about the Theta Data Basic and your DAC but don't mention the new unit.How long have you used this transport? What cables are you using? Is it brand new? Does it uses an external power supply? 
TRL 595-how good is it?
This harshness is normal for the 2000ES while breaking-in. You need to be patient and give it a good amount of time 24/7. It will pay the wait. BTW, I read about Modwrights mods to this unit and it seems that came out very nice too.All in all, the...

TRL 595-how good is it?
Why should anyone think LKDog is a modifier? I read the threads and I can't found anything that may implied it....About this point..."1) The TRL unit is going to your daughter and her friends to use for their listening and dancing; and for your "c... 
TRL 595-how good is it?
Guys!!! Just a few points:1- I used 3 CDs and 2 SACds in my Sony SCD-C2000ES while break-in the unit. I don't know any technical information on its design but what Alex said about the way the signal travels makes sence to me. 2- The SCD-C2000ES an... 
TRL 595-how good is it?
Give it at least 2 weeks on 24/7 .... Yes, it takes that long of break-in period ( stock). I don't know how it change with mods... 
TRL 595-how good is it?
Great!! Don't forget about us..... let us know how it doeas and compares to your other units. 
TRL 595-how good is it?
The work done to the TLR is "propietary" , meaning that it's a secret and the reviews from actual owners don't specify anything meaningful. The only one that told something is at the www.audioasylum.com reviews section. It includes an IEC, replace...
