| Bookshelf Help: Revel v. Merlin v. SFaber v Vienna Hi, perhaps it's the Sonus Faber Auditor Elipsa you should be looking at instead of the Domus? It would seem to fit your sonic description and certainly is a speaker I'd call forgiving with regard to placement, though it feels finer near a wall (d... | |
| VTL Vacuum Tube Logic Pressings? Should you be looking for classical music, two small labels that make very strong statements when it comes to recording with tube microphones and in the case of vinyl mastering on tube tape recorders are TACET (Germany) and Fonè/Signoricci (Italy)... | |
| Reference Level Recording of Classical on CD's? The second link is Fonè, no matter what the machine says (don't know why it keeps changing the URL's name) | |
| Reference Level Recording of Classical on CD's? For small ensembles and solo, go for the TACET label as well as Fonè/Signoricci, both supreme recording qualityhttp://www.tacet.de/main/seite1.php?language=en&filename=welcome.php&layout=willkommenhttp://www.fone.it/signoricci_cd_en.phpEnjoy! | |
| Jeff Rowland amp in unbalanced mode No problem Guido. Rather on the contrary, thanks a lot for pointing out the differences between those amps. If I'm looking at the pair of JRDG 201 presently offered at a bargain here, it is out of pure curiosity as it would be my first acquaintanc... | |
| Better Quality computer speakers Hi, if I had to upgrade desktop-speakers today, I'd go for these (causing a wave of excitement over here)http://www.adam-audio.com/downloads/A5_bulletin2008_150dpi_engl.pdf | |
| Jeff Rowland amp in unbalanced mode Kijanki, you hit the nail on the head, that is the exact reason for my question: the 201 hasn't got unbalanced inputs either, whereas I would like to use it with a pre-amp that has only unbalanced outputs. Nevertheless Rowland's manual mentions th... | |
| What is CDE ?? Biem / stemra ??? ... oops, re my previous post. If it's still possible to use it with a computer drive, then no reason to throw it away, of course. Still, I can imagine that you're faced with some mechanical degradation making it impossible to play with an "real" ... | |
| What is CDE ?? Biem / stemra ??? If you purchased it around 1983 it must have been one of the very first CDs. I recall there have been severe mechanical problems after a few years with some of those. Something about the print destroying the information layer, perhaps someone can ... | |
| What is CDE ?? Biem / stemra ??? Do I understand it correct that you can't play the cd on the Wadia? That has nothing to do with BIEM/STEMRA, though.BIEM is the international recording rights organisation: Bureau International des sociétés gérant les droits d'Enregistrement et de... | |
| Echole Cables I know I have seen them listed in a few virtual system, give it a try there.Good luck | |
| Does anyone know these tubes? Perhaps I've been throwing in too much detail, it would be an extreme coincidence if anyone had tested exactly these tubes.I guess the core of the question is whether vacuum tubes General Electric built for the army in the early 80s are any good? | |
| Hobbies other than Audiophiliac? Wine and cooking (and related things). Sadly, two more hobbies intimately shared with my poor Rosemary and thus difficult to continue. | |
| Anybody Into St. Germain? Stevecham, have you heard Laurent Garnier (e.g. Public Outburst Live) and Le Peuple de l'Herbe (e.g. Radio Blood Money). With those, we're far away from St. Germain, but given your preference they might be of interest. | |
| Anybody Into St. Germain? They're brilliant! As to recommendations, urgently second Hifimaniac on Marc Moulin!www.marcmoulin.com/EnjoyKarel |
