| best? Sony 5400 or Cambridge 840c or 851C Thanks The 5400 and 840c seem to have quite variable and often extreme responses. The latest TAS reviewer certainly feels the 840c and 851c are quite different from each other. | |
| Best preamp 2k or under, new or used JRDG Capri | |
| Recommendation Speaker Cable around $1000-$2000 I own and very much like Clear Day Double Shotgun, but much prefer Transparent Audio Super MM2 in my main system. But if you want to spend less, the Clear Day and Mapleshade Double Golden Helix Plus are great values. | |
| Floorstanders 3K Aerial 7b, 8b, 10T | |
| Help me pick some speakers Vienna Bach Grand. Quad 21L 22L, Dali Ikon 6 | |
| Thoughts on interconnect vs. speaker cable length. I prefer IC to be 1 - 2 meters, speaker cable 8 feet. Lots of opinions on this, just don't assume that shorter is always better. | |
| Do stands make a difference for equipment? I have found that Mapleshade Maple Platforms have helped with every component, either with the Mapleshade on the floor for amp, or on shelf in stand for TT, CDP, and preamp. Love the brass footers too. | |
| Fisher 500-C M&K 1b Just connected my Teac iPod dock/DAC to the Fisher. Such fun and great sound! | |
| Solid state amp around 2000-2500 used or new All fine amps... | |
| Classè Six vs ARC LS7 I preferred my ARC LS15 to the Classe Six Mkll which it replaced , but I have always missed the phono section on the Classe. | |
| Adcom GFA 555 versus Rotel RMB 1095for stereo The Rotel RB-1090 was essentially a two channel version of your amp and sold for the same price. There are lots of good two channel amps you could essentially trade your Rotel for, just don't think the GFA 555 is one of them. | |
| Adcom GFA 555 versus Rotel RMB 1095for stereo I agree that the Adcom 565 mono blocks are also way better than the GFA 555 in question. | |
| Adcom GFA 555 versus Rotel RMB 1095for stereo I have the Rotel and to me it's a much better amp than the Adcom. I use it for home theater, though it might even sound better in two channel. | |
| Upgrade under $1000. Aragon or? I have owned the Aragon and Acurus products, and for what you're looking to spend, I much prefer integrateds from Naim, Portal and Primare. | |
| OUTLAW RR2150 vs NAD C 326BEE sonic differences? Many phono preamps at low prices that are as good as the Outlaw's built in one. Very happy with my Parasound phono pre. Agree that as integrateds the NAD and Outlaw are similar. I have had numerous quality problems with NAD. |
