| In your opinion, what is Hi, Medium and Low end? So,I think by Jax2 and Mapmans reply that it takes a very large investment to achieve high end performance and some either just cant afford the cost or are not into the music that much.Did I say that? I'm not even sure where you got that inference... | |
| In your opinion, what is Hi, Medium and Low end? So guys,if you had the dollars to put into a higher end system,would you.And would you then say its all good ??Honest answers only.Please set the ego's aside.I'd probably improve a few things here and there, but I don't think I'd be inclined to in... | |
| I just don't get PC Audio I disagree with the poster that says a Benchmark will give me great performance.....I've tried the Benchmark in its pre-USB form, and in its current USB form. I really wanted to like it, but I hated it both times hooked up in several different sys... | |
| Splitting the signal from the dac Why not use the additional output from the preamp, assuming you are feeding into one?: DAC into preamp, and send the various pre outputs (you can get an RCA splitter if you only have a single output) to your various amps. In that case there would ... | |
| In your opinion, what is Hi, Medium and Low end? By your first paragraph, I'd say you're paying attention and certainly grasp what's going on here. I am not quite sure what, exactly, you are asking though. Is this an audio hierarchy question? Or are you asking what low-mid-high means to others? ... | |
| leave power on? Most of the SS gear I've owned sounded better when left on 24/7. Most tube gear sounds best after a warmup of between 30min and 3 hours. Otherwise leaving tube gear on always is a waste of tube life IMHO. | |
| Pls recommend tube DAC A third thumbs up on the Paradisea+ USB. | |
| How do I build the best room Per Peter's input, IMHO the room size you are proposing may be too small for Maggie 20.1's. I listened over a few visits and various permutations of room treatments, mods and amplification while Peter did everything he described to make them work ... | |
| Fans Of Female Singers Check Out Terra Naomi Hey, thanks for that. I checked out her YouTube stuff because I do like Amy Winehouse. You are spot-on in your comments from what I heard. I ordered her CD after listening to a few YouTube videos. Thanks for the tip! | |
| Albums you use to test your gears? I usually bring the best recorded music that I enjoy listening to. I see no point in bringing audiophile selections that don't engage me in the music simply because they are good recordings. As Mapman points out, bring a wide variety of material t... | |
| Record you spin on a rainy Saturday w/ family gone Living in Seattle, the winter provides many rainy Saturdays (as well as Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, etc.) both with and without family. I tend to have Rainy Saturday tastes in music anyway (read; towards the darker, more austere side). So you coul... | |
| Recommend me more like John Adams.. Push those choices into a more pop-infleuenced genre and you might also enjoy music by Rachel's. I'd recommend checking out Systems Layers and Selenography. I've also enjoyed most of the work I've heard from Part, but particularly Alina and Te Deu... | |
| klipschorn modifications Yes, the CP25 is a "drop-in" in terms of its output (no padding necessary, just wire it up and play using the same crossover). Physically it is larger and must be located on top of the cabinet, or an adaptation to the cabinet needs to be created. ... | |
| The Best Sounding Beatles CDs "Don't own "Love" as I don't buy novelty recordings."Well now Buscis2 will know where to go when he needs to borrow some Grey Poupon ;-)I'm pretty sure you can get "Love" on vinyl, so you won't have to do your grinding routine. I believe it was pr... | |
| The Best Sounding Beatles CDs I'm coming from a tough standard having listened to these albums on vinyl.Understood. I'd stand by my recommendation of "Love" - Have you heard it? Sonics, mix and mastering quality are all top notch. As far as the rest of their offerings, you and... |
