| Review: APL Hi Fi NWO 4.0 Master Edition CD Player I completey agree with Hifirabbit. The M is incredible. I was lucky enough to be able to compare my M to a 4.0SE in my system with the same cables, amps and speakers. It blew the 4.0SE away--completely. it has so much more musical yet has more det... | |
| APL NWO-2.5T A Review of a Classic CD Player Earflappin:Thanks for the response. I like "Neo" as a name for Alex. It is really is amazing what he can get out of a CD. Igt is hard for me to describe what I hear when I listen to the 3.0, because my response to the music is more a matter of wha... | |
| APL NWO-2.5T A Review of a Classic CD Player I was a proud owner of the 2.5T. It was the best digital front end I had ever heard at any price. I was very content and had no real interest in making a change. Alex then arranged to bring the 3.0 over to my house. I had the 2.5T warmed up and we... | |
| VTL TL-7.5 Series II upgrade anyone? Yes it is. I sent it in for the Series II upgrade and it was worth every penny, and quite bluntly I would be very happy if it cost another $1K. The noise floor is dramatically reduced with the resulting increase in musicality. I hear the lack of n... | |
| EMM labs upgrades for CDSD and DCC2 I just got my DAC6e back afte getting the "SE" upgrade. It is a tremendous improvement, and I purchased original unit in March. It was well-worth it in every respect. Jonathan is a true gentleman, and he was absolutely correct in his despcription ... | |
| Edge Sig 1 Preamp - Anyone have it or heard it ??? The Edge Signature 1 preamp is the quietest preamp I have ever heard. It is very smooth, and very clear. At the current prices it is very hard, if not impossible, to beat. | |
| Modwright I would use Dan again in a heartbeat! He does excellent work, is honest and has a real curiosity about equipment. He modded my Pioneer 47AI. It was the first one he got his hands on. I enjoyed the results, and the journey as he worked through dete... | |
| Realworld experience: Edge NL-12 or Hovland Radia I had the NL-12 and really liked it. I used it to drive B & W 800s, and it did without any problem. Eventually I traded up to the Signature Ones--same sound, less power. but I could still be happy with the NL-12. | |
| Review: Audiomod Modified: EMM Labs Phillips SACD 1000 Transport The review convinced me to get the exact same mod from Richard Kern. Although Richard warned that that it would take over 500 hundred hours for the improvement to stop, the effect was dramatic in the first minute. It made a more significant differ... | |
| Wadia 270 upgrade to 270se??? I had it done via Great Northern Sound. I was extremely dubious, since I already had their reference mods. But it was worth it, and I would do it again, no question about it. | |
| CD out: Digital or Analog? Phild & Dan: Analog pass-through means exactly that. Many processors convert an incoming analog signal into a digital signal, process it, then convert it back to an analog signal. The analog by-pass skips this stage. Many newer models have thi... | |
| Rectilinear 3's: Is it worth upgrading tweeters??? My recollection is that the shorter version were called the "Lowboys", and did not sound as good. I had a pair of the original III's for years, and my parents still use them, though now as their surround sound speakers. They always reminded me of ... |
