| Anyone compared Esoteric to EMM labs products 05-19-08: LapierreI look for innovation design and Emm Labs and Esoteric both provides you with something new instead of just borrowing OEM parts. You have to determine is it the hardware or software that really makes a sonic difference. What do y... | |
| Anyone compared Esoteric to EMM labs products Hi Bryon,I have heard both the EMM Labs CDSA SE and several Esoteric models. I even owned a stock DV-50S and a RAM modified DV-60. If forced to choose between these two, I would choose Esoteric. However, that being said, the Marantz SA-7S1 beats t... | |
| Martin Logan Descent subwoofer Cruzr, according to the AudiogoN policies, this is the seller's problem, not yours. Here is the link directly from AudiogoN: What if an item is damaged in shipping?Good luck,John | |
| 'they blew'em off the stage' I enjoy Mick Ralphs and Ian Hunter but Mott is a very overrated band in the annals of rock and roll history.Audiofeil You're just saying that because you ain't a young dude anymore Bill. :)John | |
| Hybrid integrated, best of both worlds? If I was in your situation, I'd look for a VAC Avatar or the Phi Beta integrated amp. They rarely pop up for sale on the used market, and for good reason.Cheers,John | |
| Where are you today? My last move was from SS amp to tube amp, I've long been a fan of tube preamps. I am satisfied and happy, but that doesn't mean nothing will change.I would say that yes, the economy is affecting my purchases, and I don't see any upgrades in the fu... | |
| More on VPI Anti-Skate Harry prefers the arm w/o the anti-skate as well, that's why he originally designed it that way. He caved to pressure from others to add the anti-skate in later models, not for his taste, but to satisfy the customer demand.When I had the 10.5 I al... | |

| Driven to Tears Nope, I've been driven from rooms by music, but I've never been driven to tears by music. I've never seen anyone weeping to recorded music alone. I've seen tears at a live performance, and I've seen folks cry with recorded music that was accompani... | |
| Amp for Verity Audio Sarastro Hello Michael,Congrats on your purchase of the Sarastro's. I own a pair of the Parsifal Encore's, and I have heard the Sarastro's on two occasions, I am jealous.However, it sounds as if the Sarastro's may not be your cup o' tea. No speaker is all ... | |
| CJ PV-12 mods & upgrades by Bob & Gary Backert Lenkevy,I'll second Jmo's enthusiasm for the work of RHB Sound Dezign. I had Bob and Gary work on my $9000 current production tube amplifier, and I'm very happy with the results. They do some of their own original work, which Bob can explain bette... | |
| PC for Rowland 312 and others? Guido, the reason I asked is because, as I thought, you are switching more than one cord at a time. From my experiences, the power cord on the source makes more of a difference than the cord on the amp. So while you say that you do not care for th... | |
| PC for Rowland 312 and others? Guido, out of curiousity, when you moved the PAD Anniversary to the 312, did you still have a PAD Anniversay on your Esoteric X-01 Limited? Or are you changing more than one cord around at a time?Cheers,John | |
| Symposium Svelte's under speaker's...who has them? I have a custom made pair of Symposium Svelte shelves on my Verity Audio Parsifal Encore's that seperate the bass module from the mid/high module. They replaced the standard granite slabs. Cheers,John | |
| Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now? Newbee, here is a photo of my blushing bride and here is a look at Angelina Jolie. Sure, maybe she had better lighting and/or a better photographer, but overall, I think it's a toss up.....no?Cheers,John |
