| WAV versus FLAC Hello,What about wma Pro Lossless with redbook? Rounder and warmer, not as edgy as flac. Some say it sounds as good or better than wav when upsampled to 96hz. Jean | |
| Exemplar Denon 3910 Yours was an Auricap version certainly , like mine originally (tiny yellow caps)John has been using this capacitor for the last several years and played with Dynamicaps lately. The Mundorf Silver/Oil is a great quality/price capacitor. Many recomm... | |
| Exemplar Denon 3910 Excellent universal player. I have used the Exemplar 2900 , then 3910 full mods.I asked John to replace the Auricaps ( not so great) with Mundorf Silver capacitors and the difference was amazing. | |
| Did the Herron VTPH Phono Stage have Sovtek tubes? I replaced the Sovteks with NOS tubes ... far better sound. I am sure Keith doen't want to be bothered answering questions about the best NOS tubes to use , you void the warranty I guess if you use different tubes. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Thanks. You see how important it is to mention the gear that you used before. It still doen't say much about the qualities of the preamp. It's better than the Mccormack TLC which is a boat anchor for me. Glad you like it. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Which preamp did you compare it to ??? | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier "I got more deeper background, wider soundstage and details"Than what ?? | |
| Isolation platform under US 500 for CDP I had all this junk: Symposium, Rosisante, Bright Star, Mapleshade, Osiris with all the different balls thingies:Daruma, Symposium, Aurios, Black Diamonds...Get a Neuance shelf,use the feet on your player and buy some music with the 300 bucks...)) | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? What are the major diffences between the mods made by Alex and John ? Is there a preferable approach? | |

| enkianthus vs hermes 10-13-01: GlrenoJust got a Kora Hermes...latest version dropped shipped from Kora in France. It's a killer DAC, even just being taken out of the box, plugged in and played. Last DACS were the Audiomeca Enkianthias and Altis Reference. It's much mo... | |
| What do you know about Avid turntables? A friend bought a Volvere after listening to it at Larry 's place (who sales VPI , Michell , Nottingham as well ) It was the obvious choice in this price range . I purchased one myself that I use with a SME V arm ( Avid turntables come with a SME ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Good to see so many people happy with the Syrah .I have been enjoying the Merlots 18 watts monos for the last 6 months and got the opportunity to try the Converts 45/2A3 monos .Well..they will not leave my house .45 is really special and goes pret... | |
| What about the Teres Turntable? I spoke a few times with Hartmut (hifidaddy ). He doen't mention in this post that he was sad to let go the Verdier for monetary reasons.Kurt Strain was not happy with his TNT IV , many don't like VPI as well and this turntable precis.. .No doubt ... | |
| What about the Teres Turntable? "The guys on the Asylum say that the Teres outperforms the JC Verdier and is comparable to tables in the $10k-$15k range " . Lol .Where did you read that in AA? |
