| Upgrade from MIT 4 to Lat 1000 d speaker cables? I am currently using biwired LAT 1000D cables in my system (Bel Canto electronics, Legacy Sig III's, Sony 777ES sacd, Shunyata Hydra). They compare with most any other cables I have used including Cardas Cross, Analysis Plus Oval 9, Harmonic Tech.... | |
| Audiophile Changer: Cool or Hopeless Compromise? I use a Sony 333es changer as a transport (with Dan Wright mods) feeding the Perpetual Tech boxes. The Sony as a transport is the equal of any transport I have had in my system including Sonic Frontiers SFT-1, Audio Research CDT-1, Muse Model 5, e... | |
| Why so many Flaky Buyers? Welcome to retail. While the internet has enabled us to buy gear at prices we never dreamed of, the downside is the quantity for sale. There are so many choices you cannot help but run into "shoppers" who are not fully committed to any one item. T... | |
| Harmonic Tech Vs Acoustic Zen where do you go on the web to get info on AZ products? | |
| Apogee Mini Grand vs. Duetta Signature I had a pair of Mini Grands several years ago. Upside is they sound superb as long as you are sitting in the sweet spot. Downsdide is lengthy - the sweetspot is very small. Once you get up from your listening spot the sound changes, it takes two o... | |
| Bi-amp with same sort of amp? My previous speakers were NHT 2.9s. I used an NHT SA-3 subwoofer amp on the bottom end with Atmasphere M60 mk2's on the top. The NHT sub amp has a volume control. I now have Legacy Signature IIIs for speakers and I will be experimenting with two S... | |
| Anyone heard of LAT International Cables All of the power cords in my system are LAT, as are both runs of speaker cables. My interconnects are a mixture of LAT and Homegrown Silver Lace. Great performance at real world prices. There is no reason to spend megabucks on drastically overpric... | |
| Coping in an Age of Uncertainty I bought a Sony 777es player to use as a stand alone for SACD and as a transport for my Perpetual Technologies P1 & P3 boxes (along with the upgraded power supply). PT boxes are shockingly good. I have never heard regular cd's sound so analog.... | |
| Great Beatles CD I thought "One" is maybe the brightest sounding remastered cd I have ever heard (and no, it has nothing to do with my system!) | |
| Sony sacd "custom setting" I am a technical dunce. What specifically should I be looking for regarding my amplifiers, preamp, and speakers in order to safely use the custom setting on my 777es? | |
| PS Audio PP300 works great, but...... Metaphysics: Do you have your BAT VK-5i plugged into the 300? I tried plugging in my 5i and the 300 shut down. I immediately called PS Audio and was informed that the 5i drew too much power and could not be plugged into the 300. Anybody else have ... | |
| Stones Remasters The Ludwig remasters are readily available and are superb. The Virgin label titles of which there are about 11, are the Ludwig remasters. Unfortunately, none of the ABKO titles are part of this and they sound awful. | |
| Rolling Stones remasters No money - you are correct. The remastering was done by Bob Ludwig, not Joe Gastwirt. There are 11 titles that have been remastered by Ludwig, all in jewel cases. I listened to "It's Only Rock 'N Roll" last night and was knocked out by the sound q... | |
| Rolling Stones remasters Megasam: Amazing coincidence! It was yesterday when I was buying the Tom Petty Anthology that I noticed the R.S. remasters. I listened to disc one of TP last night and it sounds superb. | |
| Lat International cables I have the SS 1000D speaker cable and it is superb. I have no interest in any other speaker cable. You need to get over the "it's too cheap to sound this good" syndrome. |
