| Review: Linn Schulte Modified CD12 CD Player John, what do you think you could possibly buy down the road that would be better than an upgraded DV50s that has been worked on by either APL or the Upgrade Company.You are kidding, right? No-brainer, not down the road, vinyl today.Seriously thou... | |
| Review: Linn Schulte Modified CD12 CD Player Thanks David, I'll have to investigate further. Maybe I'll give him a call this week, as he didn't respond to an e-mail I sent last week. The money back guarantee does offer some comfort.Cheers,John | |
| Review: Linn Schulte Modified CD12 CD Player I don't know Jp1208, looking at your answers, over 20 of your 26 answers mention David Schulte and/or the Upgrade Company. Are you on the payroll? You should disclose if you have any relationship with David.I still have serious issues with this 'l... | |
| Esoteric UX-3 vs. XO-3 I wonder which format will emerge the winner, sacd or dvd-a.No winners here, only losers. Not the formats themselves, but the marketing essentially killed the war.The good news is you can find more and more SACD's and DVD-A's for sale cheap on Eba... | |
| Review: Linn Schulte Modified CD12 CD Player Hi David,Thanks for the link. I currently have a Esoteric DV-50s that I am considering having modified. I do have to admit though that all the secrecy does concern me a bit. All of the other modifiers seem to give more information as to what they ... | |

| Verity Parsifals to Von schweikert VR4 Gen III ?? Sonicbeauty is right on the money, about the Parsifal's and audiophiles. I'm nearing the end of a major downsizing. The only two components that survived were my analog front end (sans the phono stage), and my Parsifal Encore's. I was able to pull... | |
| Verity Parsifals to Von schweikert VR4 Gen III ?? Royy, I would agree with Grant (Tvad) that your listening tastes would have a lot of input in this decision. I own the Verity Audio Parsifal Encore's, and I've auditioned the VR-4 Jr's several times, as well as the VR-4 Sr's and the DB-99's. I hav... | |
| Looking for warmth Sell the two Adcoms, that should give you around $5-600. Then buy one Classe CA-200 for around $1000. That should warm things up and you'd still have plenty of power.John | |
| Best power amp for under 1K Forte Model 4a, sweet little 50 wpc Class A biased amp that sounds more powerful than 50 wpc. Should be able to grab one for under $600. | |
| What recordings do you use? Happy Holidays, Love BarneyI find the palpability and midrange liquidity staggeringly good on this disc. I also use it to test bass response. Barney really gets down on this disc, and holds nothing back. Amazing vocal range, amazing recording.Chee... | |
| Silver vs Copper cables I guess I am foolish and silly.You're not foolish or silly, you just believe that your favorite flavor is everyone else's favorite flavor too.(For the record, I don't care what the make up is, simply the results.)Now you're getting it. There is no... | |
| Silver vs Copper cables Anyone who doesn't think that we are using cables as tone controls is kidding themselves. You may believe that silver cables are more transparent and reveal the faults in the equipment, as that's what many manufacturers would have you believe. All... | |
| To all analogers: check this out Looks cool! I ordered the Signature version with low output moving coil cartridge and silver coils. :-) | |
| Silver vs Copper cables Brianmgrarcom, so you are saying that his Levinson gear and Wilson speakers are very smooth in the highs? Have you heard this equipment? My comment was not meant to bash silver cables, I own all silver cables myself. However, Levinson and Wilson i... |
