| A Must Hear under $5,000 Yep. I know that's a tall order, but yep. I should probably add a must hear for NEW speakers under 5K, as there are many fantastic used transducers out there for much less. I spend a lot of time visiting audio stores and listening to friends' syst... | |
| A Must Hear under $5,000 I recently built custom plinths for the Dynaudios using 1-1/4" maple and solid brass cone spikes from Dayton. I raked the towers back about 2 degrees to improve time-alignment and rear-port angle, and now even better!! | |
| Review: Dynaudio Excite x36 Speaker True Schubert, I guess I've never heard a bad Dynaudio either, come to think of it. Its just that these surprised me. A lot of bang for the buck! | |
| Phil Jones' AAD 2003; any information? Kclone: Keep your eyes open & you may still have the chance. There is a pair of 2003 towers on eBay right now for $2,799.00. For me these are keepers. | |
| Phil Jones' AAD 2003; any information? Well that explains the cabinet weight!! Very helpful information. Thank you Jmbatkh! | |
| Phil Jones' AAD 2003; any information? That's great info, Loomisjohnson. Thanks! | |
| Albert Von Schweikert VR-4 Sorry for the delay. I did buy them, and I'm still in LOVE!! It is rare for us "audiophile" types to hang on to a component for long without the itch to upgrade. While I've upgraded my digital source (to a sweet Cary Audio 303/300 tubed CD player)... | |
| Captive turntable interconnects; should I modify?? I think I am going to hard wire better quality cables to the tonearm leads, as several members have described above. I like Marakanetz' suggestion about the low-mass connectors; it just seems intuitively correct. It may be a few weeks 'til I have ... | |
| Review: Odyssey Audio Stratos Amplifier I'm going to keep this short. I also own an Odyssey Audio Stratus Plus amp. I have owned Nelson Pass amps, as well as others, and I can tell you this amp is just about as good as a solid state amp gets. Period. You can spend 10K more if you'd like... | |
| Rookie; replace my own amplifier caps?? That is very helpful! I know some of the better brands are Solencaps, Blackgate; is there a consensus best brand for a solid-state amp? | |
| DVD-A signal to my stand-alone DAC; problems The SACD playback through the 3910's analog outs directly into the Musical Fidelity is noticibly fuller than 24-bit CDs played through the Cambridge. To what do you credit the improvement; the SACD 2-channel format or the 3910's triple Burr-Brown ... | |
| Denon DVD-3910 Universal Player; help with digital I think you've hit it on the nose! The DVD-A & SACD signals do sound really nice through the analoge inputs on my Musical Fidelity preamp, but I'd like to hear the direct digital signal through high-end gear. Surprizingly, the SACD sound is be... | |
| Denon DVD-3910 Universal Player; help with digital You are right Unsound, the Denon's DACs are pretty good, and do sound nice given the quality of the rest of my system, I just really wanted to try it through the Cambridge's DACs. I think Elisabeth has hit it on the nose! | |
| Denon DVD-3910 Universal Player; help with digital I understand "Denon link" is a type of interconnect that is also used by other manufacturers under different proprietary names. As my Cambridge Audio unit does not have that type of recepticle/input, I'm wondering if there is a conversion cable wi... | |
| In the red; insufficient power Bombaywalla, you obviously have too much time on your hands. |
