| The Hub: Rocky Mountain Audio Fest 2010 The show is gearing up to be another great one. I'm helping to run the CanJam headphone room this year. We've got thousands of dollars in prizes donated by the vendors in room that will be raffled off. Theraffle tickets are free just stop by the r... | |
| 2010 RMAF Analog Reports + Meet and Greet As an FYI the CanJam room dedicated to headphones will be up again this year. As a disclaimer I helped put it together. If you get a chance check out Jerry Harvey's set up. The JH 3a is a portable tri amped active crossover portable amp and in ear... | |
| Upgrade for users of 1/2" mylar belt Wow, I just acid etched a belt from the ones Thom made me for my Serac and there is a nice improvement in dynamics. Great tweak, I'll be making up extra belts in the next few weeks. | |
| EMM labs DAC2 can be used with Apple? if your mac has an optical out try that as well, I have found the optical to best usb on the apogee dacs but with the EMM labs YMMV | |
| Opus 21 vs. Mac Mini with Wavelength USB DAC USB audio is still shakey, I owned a cosecant for about a year and thought the $500 apogee duet bested it. The wavelength did not have low or tight bass and was restricted in the upper frequencies. Additionally one of the transformers was wired in... | |
| Preamp for McCormack DNA-125 Gold? Budget $2k Why not look at the McCormack MAP, not as functional as some multi channel units but if it shares the RLD qualities it should sound great. | |
| Preamp for McCormack DNA-125 Gold? Budget $2k Steve, thanks for you response, so far with a 1.2k cadddock based resistor axion passive I have no loss in dynamics from my active pre and better clarity. I will try the transformer units as well.When my cash flow improves I'd love to try the RLD ... | |
| Preamp for McCormack DNA-125 Gold? Budget $2k Funny this is the same quandary I am facing I've got a DNA-1 rev a with the balanced option and a pair of Alon 1s. I had considered the CAT SL-1, Audio Research SP 10, Modwright 9se and then I went through the passive thought process and considere... | |
| Teres 260 or Galibier Serac? thanks for the responses, I am looking for as nuetral as possible and want to minimize the tables sonic fingerprint on the music. Maybe a quick trip to Colorado? | |
| Is MP3 responsible for the return of Vinyl? the loudness wars are at least partially responsible as lps tend to be better mastered at least for classic rock and 50-60s jazz | |
| Teres 260 or Galibier Serac? I have searched the forum and not seen the two entry level tables compared? What you tend to read is that the tables sound more alike than different but that was before the Teres versus drive. THe comment about rock is great as that is about 50% o... | |
| Teres still the way to go? any thoughts on the versus motor as compared to the tape/mylar drive belt? |
