| Bryston 28 sst's vs Spectron Musician 3 SE ? Not quite what you are asking for, but i went from the NuForce 9 SE V2 to the Bryston 28s after a year (or longer) search for new amps. I once lived with the 3BST and the 4BSST and the 28s are a sonic departure for Bryston. I did enjoy the former ... | |
| Cary 306/200 - What next? I too would get the Cary 306. I have the 306 Pro. I had a Naim CDX2 and XPSII but then a I borrowed a friend's 306 for a month. After 3 weeks with it, I sold the Naim gear on Audiogon and purchased the 306 Pro. At the time, I had no idea I would b... | |
| My first post, need some opinions about speakers I would move your friends speakers into your listening room for a month. Then decide. If it were me, I would get the Nines. I lived with the Super 8s for a year and a half and loved them. If I were able to home the demo the Silverbacks I suspect I... | |
| Looking For New Component Sstand I am currently in the process of reviewing a "Zircoina" rack from Audiav.com, which will be posted on Positive-feedback.com within the next month or so. First impressions are that it is very handsome (click "system" and see if you agree)and the ch... | |
| Cary 306 Pro vs Dedicated DAC I have and between the (2) I would take, and did opt for, the 306 Pro, aside from its better sound, you don't have to give up your CDP/SACD player in the exchange.I ripped my whole collection of Redbooks and listen to the Apple lossless files 85% ... | |
| Marshall Tucker Band-Anyone else get them? They are without a doubt my grandest personal guilty pleasure and love them....While many people I know wouldn't agree (or confess), I think they have a great sound and one track or another of their greatest hits is very often in my playlist... | |
| Are you in the over 30 K club?? I think over time it is reasonable to reach such a "pricey" level of audio luxury...I started out like many people, in my 20s putting together what I could and when I could...then as time moved on, I made more money, traded up and continued to bui... | |
| Suggestion of single-box SACD and DAC player I think the Playback MPS has an MSRP of 15K, so that won't fit your stated budget. But, as an owner of the 306 Pro which I am using 80/15/5% as a DAC/CDP/SACD, I would strongly recommend seeking out a used one...It may be a bit over your budget, b... | |
| Tired of HT You could completely separate the 2 systems, as I did. See my "System"....John | |
| DeVore Super 8s with SS amp? I used the Super 8's with an Edge Integrated with great results. I lived with the Supers for sometime and found I had to spend a lot more to get much better (which I eventually did), otherwise I would still have them. Given your stated preferences... | |
| Convert speaker cables to interconnects? ? I had recently sent my Crystal Cable Refernece Speaker Cables back to The Netherlands for repairs as my puppy chewed through one of them.In splicing and cutting the remaining lengths of wire to make a matched length pair of "new" speaker wires, th... | |
| Sonus Faber intermediate Homage model Thats why they made the Elipsa. | |
| Speaker recommendations What don't you like about your current speakers? | |
| New Electrial Wiring.. Thanks guys.Drum - Did you ever go with the Bryston Pre? I used to have a BP-25r with my 3BST and loved it...wondering how a Bryston pre would mate with the 28s....Thanks, John | |
| Speakers for YBA passion 100 Amp I think a DeVore Fidelity Speaker would go very nicely with that amp.Enjoy the search!John |
