Krell 400xi vs. BAT VK-300x vs. McIntosh MA6900
No flaming here...Bashing, maybe. Taking it personally though stupid. Just relax, and enjoy whatever you have..I know I would if someone bashed Krell, which lots do and voice their opinion of it, I could care less. Doesn't make feel any different ... 
Krell 400xi vs. BAT VK-300x vs. McIntosh MA6900
I agree with Dave b, the Mac stuff does not matchup here...Mac is second rate compared to Krell, hands down, case closed. I had a 402 for over a week, and it sounded terrible, listened to Mac equip. again at my dealer recently while auditioning 80... 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Thanks guys...I will report back on my thoughts on the 803s. I don't want boomy, but I will spike them like I did my n804's which totally saps the boom right out of em. I think long term I would just simply be happier something a smidge bigger to ... 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Thanks Audphile! Excellent points you make here..I think the next step is to a/b the 803Ds and the 803s. I don't know why I didn't do that when I was there before. Now that I think about it, over the years in this hobby I have never given the 803'... 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Audphile1, I auditioned for only about an hour the 803d's. Smooth as silk...I actually had the dealer a/b back and forth from my current speaker 804 to the 803d, was very different.I am not going to say I don't like the sound of my 804's anymore l... 
How's this for speaker break in?
Don't ignore the fact it can take a solid hour for your other equipment to heat up as well...That may have been what you heard that you described so profoundly. I doubt a speaker broke in so suddenly, not to mention in such a short time...Break in... 
Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player?
If a CD player is what you want, then this player is it. Nicest I have seen or heard, although I think the Rega players are the best value for the $$, and they sound incredible...The Nagra stuff is totally overpriced. I say that or course because ... 
Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player?
Aplhifi- There is NO difference between the data on a CD or CD-r, how the data gets there is another discussion. So to keep in track here, all things considered, 1:1 file copying, convenience, mind blowing sound, why would one invest in an incredi... 
Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player?
Good question Kamil....I have not heard the Crimson, yet....It is just beginning to trickle out there to people now. There is a guy, Splaskin I believe who has one, loves it. I have heard the Nagra though, and I have heard more than one of the Wav... 
Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh?
Drubin- LOLYour right though, it's not a synth or a midi. : ) 
Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player?
"03-26-07: AplhifiDownloaded, ripped and recorded music still sounds best when burned to a CD-R and played on a dedicated CD player/Transport. The CDs may disappear but the CD-Rs will not."Sigh.....This is not only the most incredibly incorrect th... 
Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player?
If you are spending this amount of money on a CD player right now IMO you are making a big mistake. CD's will be dead soon, and you will be forced to sell this VERY EXPENSIVE player at a more than considerable loss. Wavelength Crimson DAC is worth... 
good tube preamp match for classe ca300 amp
Be patient, and wait for a 5.5 to pop up...Difference between it and the 2.5 is very big. 5.5 would also match those 803d's VERY well. 
Krell FPB Amps-biwiring
Do any of you know the size of the binding posts on the FPBs? Its does not indicate it anywhere in the manuals for them..I am just curious because I want to order some spades and there are two different sizes. thx! 
Krell FPB Amps-biwiring
Have not got the FPB yet...The person I bought it from would only accept check or money order, so it delays the process a little. I am thinking I will have it week after next early. Other than going clinically insane from having no music, it has g...
