Right now I cannot fathom because I've never heard.So far I'm very impressed with the 103, however this is my first venture back into vinyl since the days of Technics Linear Tracking...:)The ea... | |

| High Definition Radio I spoke to someone at DaySequerra asking them about the digital out, he says the HDRadio broadcasts in 44.1 kHz. That's cool, you can plug it into your digital front end. I just hope we're still going to beable to hear the transparency a good anal... | |
| BEST LINE CONDITIONER UNDER $600 Before you dive into the 'line conditioning' game, may I ask what kind of power cords you are using? I tried the Blue Circle 1200 and didn't like what it did to my amp (dynamics were hindered) so I didn't go for it.I've achieved outstanding result... | |
| Which of your component purchases was "magical"? The Audio Research CD-3 mk1 was my first high end cdp. Wow, that was quite a treat. How ever, the 47 Labs Flatfish/Progression/Dumpty was in another world for me. More body, more fullness to the sound, and separation. The ARC had the base and what... | |
| Computer to Intergraded amp hookup For wireless, check out the Squeezbox. I hear nothing but goood things about this product...not sure about the wireless connection though. | |
| Headphones powered by a preamp output? Thanks for the information. So a headphone amp is the way to go.I'm interested in a Stax setup that has balanced inputs and uses tubes. Does anyone have any experience with Stax? | |
| Anyone Using XM or Sirius On Their System? Another alternative is Music Choice on digital cable (Time Warner for me). No commercials and the sound is quite good. | |
| Phono Pre-amp for Analog Newbie One way to approach the cartridge thing when starting out (like what I'm doing right now) is to find a basic good cartridge that every one can agree is the best bang for the buck, and go from there. In my case, I'm starting out with the Denon DL-1... | |
| Tube amp to match sensitive Living Voice Speakers Audionote, Welbourne Labs, Audio Consulting those are some kits that I'm considering. I've heard that Audionote is going to have a parallel 300B kit soon.This is probably going to be a project planned for the fall. | |
| Cassette Recorder replacement? While I'm on this kick, who preferred DBX over Dolby? | |
| Tube amp to match sensitive Living Voice Speakers I'm doing great with the OBX2 and the Berning ZH270. I would like to try a good SET sometime. | |
| Has anyone listened to the Grado Statement ? I'm starting out with the straight DL-103. Not sure where I'm going... | |
| Looking for opinion, Cary 303/300, thinking about I listened to the 303/200 and compared that to the ARC CD-3 several years ago. I didn't buy into the upsampling bit, I thought the Audio Research sounded better directly compared to the Cary. I lived with the Audio Research CD-3 for about a year a... |
