| How does Berning ZH270 compare to Cary Cad211 AE ? I used to own a Berning 270 and briefly used them with 103 dB sensitive speakers. Very ,very quiet. You could hear background noise only with your ear several inches away from the horn. Highly recommended. It will sound alot different than your Ca... | |
| remyo 777 does not play certain cd-r I have also not had any problems playing all CDs with my Reimyo. I agree with giving May Audio a call. They are very responsive and helpful. | |
| Best digital cable to audition? Check out the Omega Micro line of cables. They make some pretty impresssive sounding stuff. Very dynamic with excellent resolution. | |
| Jena Labs Model One Fundamental Power Cords How much do they cost? | |
| Reimyo DAP 777 - looking for a good transport I would consider an Audio Note transport. I think it would be a good match. | |
| Reimyo CDP 777 Agree with above. Compared to an Audio Note CDT2 and Levinson 36S DAC combo, it was no contest. Much more resolution, transparency, organic/natural feeling. It's not analog but awful close. | |
| Pass amps with Avantgarde duos? Avantgarde also makes a solid state amp. It puts out something like 1.5 watts Class A then switches to Class AB for another 20 watts. Check out the Avantgarde website. BTW, I own a Berning 811 SET/OTL amp. I have the original output tubes from thr... | |
| Amplifier recommendation for Legacy Focus 20/20 Hybrid amps are a combination of a tube driver stage with a solid state ouput stage. They tend to be a little warmer sounding than their completely solid state competitors. As other people have mentioned, any of the amps mentioned so far would wor... | |
| Amplifier recommendation for Legacy Focus 20/20 Flyfisher, I would definitely stick to solid state or hybrid amps. These speakers need alot of current. The 2 amps you mentioned would be fine. Other considerations would be Pass Labs,Blue Circle,Parasound. | |
| Blind Power Cord Test & results I agree with Ohlala. I think the way to test A vs. B is to try to detect differences, NOT try to identify the sound of A or the sound of B. IOW, blindly and randomly compare 2 power cords together (AA orAB or BB) to see if you can discern a differ... | |
| Output Voltage on the Reimyo 777 CDP? 3V-RCA 6V-XLR | |
| high quality transports Check out the Audio Note CD2. It goes for $3300 new, but can be picked up used for under $2000. I liked it better than a Levinson 37, Theta Carmen, and Wadia. Great midrange and soundstage with a natural/organic feel to it. Slightly less bass than... | |
| Atma-Sphere M60 or David Berning ZH270? I heard the Atmosphere and the Berning in the same system but not at the same time(A/B). In purely sonic terms, the Atmosphere edged out the Berning except in the bass. I thought the Berning had more PRAT. Otherwise, in all other matters--heat pro... | |
| Hybrid or tube int? As usual it depends. If you have a small room and don't play music loud very often then it probably doesn't matter. Other than that, the hybrid would be the better option. These speakers need some current in order to play loudly or to not compress... | |
| Which i/c Harmonix 101GP or Silversmith. I have the Silversmith IC and speaker cables and love them. I think the speaker cables are especially excellent(love the design without connectors of any kind). Why don't you consider both: a Harmonix IC and a Silversmith speaker cable. Enjoy list... |
