| Going back to Solid state what should I get. Creek 5350SEhttp://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cl.pl?intatran&1216343347 | |
| Top 5 sounding cd player in the 1000-2000$ range I have owned the CA 640C v1 and now own the CA 640C v2. Several key improvements including better power supply and two DACs instead of one make the version 2 significantly better than the original in terms of smoothness, timing, resolution, low le... | |
| Totem vs. Vr-1 vs. Dynaudio Audience This thread may help sort out the amplification issue if you choose to go with the Arros.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1203546480&openflup&2&4#2 | |
| Totem vs. Vr-1 vs. Dynaudio Audience Tetazoo,If you like the Audiolab, you may want to try it with your speaker choice before looking elsewhere (if you have both amps on hand, perhaps can you take them into a local dealer or seller and give them a listen with these speakers before yo... | |
| Totem vs. Vr-1 vs. Dynaudio Audience I am not familiar with the Vr-1s so can't provide you any insight there.Qualifier: I love Totem speakers. The Totems image extremely well, with the Arros a bit better than the Rainmakers, although the later are terrific little sub-$1,000 (new) sta... | |
| Integrated amps on a 1,000 dollar budget I agree you should look at these suggestions:PrimaLuna ProLogue 2Naim Nait5 or 5iNAD C355 or C372Jolida 1501all these are warm, musical and plenty of current. Somebody mentioned a potential lack of current from the Naim. Never seen a problem with ... | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? My top ten All Time list. They are selected because these musicians have moved the medium to a new place, and I have REALLY enjoyed listening to them do it, either live or on recordings. To get on this list they had to have the right combination o... | |
| Which TT Music Hall 5.1 or Rega P1 or P2 Have to agree with Piedpiper. A used P3 would better match the quality of the rest of your system. If you are lucky, you could pick a P3 with cartridge and upgrades for the same price as a new P2. | |
| Cambridge 740c or Rega Apollo with Linn and Sonus I haven't heard that particular Creek. You should listen to the Naim 5i since their players have a unique presentation that I find quite infectious. On the other hand the Cambridge 840 certainly will provide more detail and may sound more "natural... | |
| Cambridge 740c or Rega Apollo with Linn and Sonus I don't know if this is instructive because there are probably few parts in common, but my Cambridge Azur 640C v2 was still presenting new musical perspectives after many months of playing. Sometimes I would put in a disk and go "Wow! It didn't so... | |
| Anbody fool around with different pre/amp jumpers? Yeah, I think I can see the stock bars (probably plated brass) being a inferior design to the wire jumpers. But it is interesting to me that the Audioquest jumpers, which also have heavy duty gold plated connectors, wire running in PE air tubes an... | |
| Bi-amping question Question: How critical is the crossover in the loop between the amp and the Staffs versus just running separate lines directly to the sub and the speakers? My experience without one has been that a smaller amp will start to clip and the mid bass d... | |
| Recommendation Weight on Top of Speaker Whatever you do, don't let your signif other put a plant on top, no matter how "good" it looks or sounds!!! | |
| Opinions: PC's with strong lows roll off the highs Foster_9,Curious, do the Flavor cords roll off the highs or the bass? What I hear you saying is that its an either or proposition with your current stable of cables. I am thinking of going this route and would like to hear your experience with the... | |
| WBT Power Bridges or Dayton Jumpers? If your cables are "finished" products, i.e. you can't really chop off the end and fashion it into a jumper cable - go to a retailer that sells Kimber or Audioquest cable in bulk spools and get some nice solid copper wire, 1 ft. or less should do,... |
