The 4k release of Blade Runner--is anyone as disappointed as I am??
Mzkmxcv,I understand that 4k is the gold standard right now, but something is just not right. I agree it must be on my end...but what?? Unfortunately, I really have no other disc to compare it to. The only other disc I have is Schindler's list, wh... 
The 4k release of Blade Runner--is anyone as disappointed as I am??
I thought the same thing: possibly that the problem was on my end. But, I have an LG OLED, and a my disc player is a Sony ES1000. Where can I improve? Not being sarcastic, it's an honest question. I can't sugarcoat it...it looks and sounds like crap. 
Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???
I fell in love with class d when I bought (go easy on me) the Pioneer elite sc-09tx uber-receiver, some years ago. The bass and mids were absolutely intoxicating and to die for, while the highs were grating and painful. All coming from a pitch bla... 
The Future of Audio Amplification
Funny, I haven't read anyone comment about having owned both class d and a-a/b. I'm very interested in what they think. This thread, as well as the entire audiogon forum, is populated with either/or, one or the other, with very strong advocates in... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
I’m not going to weigh in on power cables, but I would LOVE to be able to read all the deleted posts on here! I think this thread sets a record for voluntary, or IN-voluntary removal of postings. Didn’t the OP ask that people only post their posit... 
Fixing your cable problems forever.
In a word..NO. Not now, not ever. I would never trust myself to make my own cables for goodness sake!! And SPEAKERS???? I like my free time, I like my sanity, and I prefer spending that extremely limited time listening to music on equipment design... 
Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD
@Inna...So you're calling people that listen to digital music instead of analog....stupid???  
Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD
I think the utter pain-in-the-ass requirements of vinyl set-up, maintenance, cost, along with finding source material that is worthy, is EXACTLY why I stayed away from it, and exactly why I'm enjoying this thread.No offense guys, but I'm feeling m... 
Looking for an amp....Opinions about Odyssey or Bel Canto audio anyone?
Very nice. Maybe even MORE power than I need! Five Gs for my front end though...ouch.

The SET 400 looks very nice, the only drawback is no balanced connections.

Jackd...I'm driving Legacy Audio studio HDs. They can handle, and need some decent power to sound their best. Not mid-ranging enough for my taste, and I want more bass. I'm just not happy with my current amp-- no pun intended. 
Looking for an amp....Opinions about Odyssey or Bel Canto audio anyone?
Thanks for all of the suggestions, I had another question of I were to buy the bel canto amps...As I said, I was looking at the REF 1000M monos--as they don't make them any more, I would be looking for a used pair. Are there any tips about buying ...

Schubert/jackd....So you found the Van Alstine better than the Odyssey? It looks unremarkable, but I will definitely investigate further. Thanks for the tip.

Markalarsen,The new 600M is an ncore design, is it not?  
Looking for an amp....Opinions about Odyssey or Bel Canto audio anyone?
French_fries, Yes, everything I read about them is extremely positive, among the best of the class d family. I really like their high power as well. The ref1000m is 500 watts into 8ohms or 1000 into 4.The only difference with that amp is that it's...
