| How much does your system retail for? Way too much... over 150k. | |
| Some cable advice for this system I am familiar with everything except the Audio Logic. I like the Nordost Valhalla all the way around. They are remarkable cables. If you are not looking to spend that kind of money, the Quattro Fil and SPM are also excellent. Another choice would ... | |
| You wouldn t believe it s good, but... Fairfield Four - Standing In The Safety Zone: gospel group that kicks butt! A MUST have.Very unexpected. Bought it in 1994 and was shocked!!! | |
| Jazz at the Pawnshop I would wait for the SACD release of it, which is upcoming. If you have no interest in SACD, the XRCD version is incredible. | |
| Coltrane. Can we talk? I am very much a fan, his timing and musicality were unbeatable. Is he the best ever, I cannot say. Certainly among the top.If you do not already have it, there is an exceptional release of Cannonball Adderley and Coltrane called: "Quintet In Chic... | |
| Vandy 5s vs Wilson W/P 6s I listened to so much prior to purchasing the newer WP 6's. I think they are incredible. I now own the MAXX's just because of an exceptional deal I recieved, but I would be almost as happy with the Watt Puppies! | |
| Upgrading Audio Research Amps Far superior! | |
| Dodson MKll D, Levinson 360S, dCS Delius Lev335: Are you speaking from expeience? You state that "it isn't the Dodson or the dCS", but have you even listened to either in your system? I doubt it. If you had, there is no way you would make that statement. | |
| Dodson MKll D, Levinson 360S, dCS Delius When I owned my 360s, which I loved, I called Madrigal and asked if they would be supporting SACD with the 360s. They told me that they would support the Reference digital but probably not the 360s. The justification was thet it would be too expen... | |
| Nordost Valhalla. vs Transparent Ref XL Transparent Opus MM. As of today, they are only available in speaker cables. They will be releasing the IC's in the near future. | |
| AR Ref 600s Best for Genesis2? Jimj: Not only are you insulting, but you also must have very limited auditioning experience. The Ref 600s were the biggest disappointment in the ARC line. The Ref 300s blew them away in terms of musicality as did the VT100MKII & 200MKII. I ha... | |
| Nordost Valhalla. vs Transparent Ref XL Mikelavigne: I am amazed. The question really is how much better can it still get over the opus? I would have bought the Opus MM, but I thought enough was enough. $23,000 was the straw that broke the camel's back. I can take that money and use it ... | |
| Cost is no object is easy, but.... Nice system, but I would also change the BAT, although I like it, for the Sony SCD-777. It is wonderful with PCM and you also get SACD. You can also buy it new for $1600 (if you can still find one) and have money to buy more important things like ... | |
| Vandy 5s vs Wilson W/P 6s I have heard both and owned the WP 6s. I prefer the Wilson's by a wide margin. Much greater resolution, detail, imaging and dynamics. But let's be realistic, the Wilson's cost almost twice as much. The Van 5's are very good, unlike the other speak... | |
| Upgrading Audio Research Amps It is much improved. I heard the VT100 MKIII as well as the Ref300 MKII and the bass was better controled and the tonality was much better. |
