| What the benifit of using a separate dac? My 3910 bears NO sonic relation to what it used to sound like prior to Alex's rebuild - it is totally different machine, but in the same box and with the same crappy transport.(nobody's perfect...)A good friend had an APL 3910. I spent a couple of... | |
| What the benifit of using a separate dac? Your reply sounded superbly utilitarian and pragmatic until you let that slip in! LOL aesthetics is important after all! I 'll admit I am just as guilty of that as the next guy ;-)I guess I ain't "the next guy": I don't give a tinker's cuss what t... | |
| What the benifit of using a separate dac? Somewhere in the archives from years ago you might find some comments I made in listening and comparing an ARC LS2B I had modded by GNSC. My friend had the sme modest preamp in stock form and we swapped out the tube when we compared. Same cables, ... | |
| What the benifit of using a separate dac? ...curious lack of objective press reviews...That is an oxymoron. Where have yous seen "objective" press reviews on anything? How could there be such a thing, a review being written by a human being is bound to be subjective simply by definition. ... | |
| Life without a remote I tend to listen to various program material in succession (PC audio), and would not want to go without a remote in that each does need to be adjusted according to content and my preference. Without a remote, why, I'd have to get up each time the ... | |
| What the benifit of using a separate dac? Blindjim - I don't get the connection to motorcycle performance mods aimed at boosting torque and HP for faster lap times. Those are mods easily measured by a mechanical (objective) device. Humans are not objective. Music is emotional. You can cha... | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... perhaps you've never had Bill follow you around and bash your recommendations. I have. Perhaps that explains my lack of recognition of his attempt at humor.Yes, that would explain it. If I thought that were happening to me I might contact the pers... | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... Glad to see you have a sense of humor! I've got a photo of Natalie Portman inside my paper bag. | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... Dave - My point was that I did not have any sense at all that Bill was pushing his wares. I didn't think in the context of this particular thread, and the content of his posts, that a disclaimer was necessary. Beyond that, and in general, I'd agre... | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... DK4z, what's a Concerta?I think he meant this Continuum being sold by the PimpMeister his bad self. | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... Wow, our audio dealer friend Mr. Feil has really gone over the edge. In the interest of fairness, everyone should go to his site and check out his wares. Maybe that'll stop his trembling lip.I think Bill was being humorous, and I'm not sure what y... | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... I can get Jeff Rowland Concerta 250 on ebay for 4000-25% that would be about only $700.00 overpriced.Go for it dude. Give the Pimp your money and put this thread out of its misery. If you're going to drop over 4 large on a Concerta I'm not sure wh... | |
| What the benifit of using a separate dac? WEll, forgive me here, but just where does one go to hear that modded Waddia beforehand?Hmmm, well, I guess you have a point, but some of the modders do show up at the bigger shows (RMAF, VSAC, CES), and you could hear their stuff there. Just like... | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... But I digress.That, sir, is an understatement.This starting to remind of some very bad, and very long threads.Yes, I can think of a few other threads that if combined with what this one is well on its way to becoming, may combust and take out a su... | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... Pass Labs INT-150 is $6500 (you could almost buy two Ayre AX-7's for that), and looks not unlike the Ayre in that it is a billet box with fins and blue LCD readout. I've not heard it. I have heard a few of his X series and would not have associate... |
