| Rega DAC vs. EE Minimax vs. Centrance vs. W4S 2 Doug, I read your excellent review of the plus. Having recently heard the newest version of the Linn Akurate streamer and being hugely impressed, any chance you could comment on this comparison? I realize there is a big difference in price so a co... | |
| Scotch? No thanks. Whats the best Vodka.? make is vodka flavored vodka. | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? John, thanks for the kind words about my system. My speakers are ProAc 3.8s, not Dynaudios, however. I know what you are saying when you refer to chasing the digital dream. When I listen to analog for a time, it is very difficult to "adapt" back t... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Here's my take on the Gabriel Gold interconnects as they performed in the context of my system. I listened mostly to female vocals but also just about every other genre to get a feel for these cables. I'd be happy to provide specifics but omitted ... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Sorry for the delay folks. I have been experimenting with a variety of power cords and cables in order to determine the best overall combination. System synergy is so underappreciated. I need more time to evaluate the cables since I find that afte... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Expect to receive it in 2 days. I'll need to burn it in a bit but as always I'll sneak a listen approximately 10 nanoseconds after I get it plugged in :-)Not sure what the Rapture will do to me but my wife thinks I should be "caught up and taken a... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Most I've ever spent on cables. Really liked the rev mk2's but I was intrigued by the comments about the raptures. Can they be that much better? I'll let you know... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? I pulled the trigger and am waiting for my raptures to be delivered. All I can say is that they better DELIVER ME!-Joe | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? I have two words for you gary:"Financial constraints"Joe :-( | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Thanks for the suggestion, Bob. Apparently another Rapture owner has 2 raptures he doesn't need and I would have considered these except that they are RCA and I need XLR. You're probably right about the rev mk 2's sounding so good in my system tha... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? I did it. Now my pre and CD are both within 1 meter of each other. Now, rapture or rev mk 2 and where should the better cable be placed if I do get a rapture, at the source? | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Sorry that this thread is getting off the original topic of the gabriel golds but in a sense it is still related. My extreme satisfaction with the GG rev mk2 IC from CD to pre has led me to consider placing all my components close to my amp so tha... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Out of desperation and in an attempt to save some mony, I actually thought about cutting my 5 shelf zoe into a 3 shelf and 2 shelf system to flank my amp. This would leave 4 unfinished "caps "on the posts which could be sanded and polyurethaned. M... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? You certainly have me reconsidering changing things around to accomodate running a shorter IC between amp and pre. While this solves that problem it creates a few more. I'd need to relocate my phono pre, TT, and dvd player to be close to my main p... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Need opinions please. I recently upgraded my cd cable to a GG rev mk2 and am very pleased (understatement!) with the upgrade. I have a 5 meter silver cable from pre to pro that could be upgraded as well. However, it would be less expensive for me ... |
