| Bonzo's drum sound Funny you should mention that about John Bonham. I've been telling people for years how hard he hits the drums. The only reaction I ever got was either rolling eyes or funny looks. Bonham is clearly my favorite drummer of all time. The new DVD set... | |
| thoughts on the Music Fidelity CD-Pre at 1,300 I know nothing!!!!!!! Sorry I couldn't resist. | |
| Smooth jazz recommendations Its not smooth jazz,but give Michael Hedges a try. Its classified as New Age. He is an incredible guitar player,and its very well recorded. Some of the titles are:Oracle,Taproot,and I'm sure some AGoners will chirp in some more titles. Its 4:40am ... | |
| Essay bashing Primedia, Stereophile - and Audiogon Disclaimer- My comments above are not in any way a reflection on my current local dealer. If everybody treated people like Audio Visions(Strongsville,and Solon Ohio) the high end audio industry would be alot more cohesive. My frustrations are more... | |
| Finest subwoofer for music under $1,000? Its a stretch but for around 1K(used-usually abot 1200.00) you can get a Martin Logan Depth. It integrates with 2 channel as good as I've ever heard,and for surround its incredible. | |
| Essay bashing Primedia, Stereophile - and Audiogon I don't know wether to throw up or laugh. Boo Hoo. The system is broken so lets blame the consumers who just want the most bang for their buck. You have it backwards Chip. It is all about US. The manufacturers and the retailers need to look in the... | |
| DAC for 500 Recommendations? KCdrummer- It was the original Adcom 600 processor. In my system I couldn't hear a difference with/or without it. That was in my system-I have heard of others who liked it. Yes I did try it at home. The Millenium 2 at the time I had it was the big... | |
| DAC for 500 Recommendations? The EVS Millenium 2 is flat out stunning. I had one in my system,and it was incredible. They occasionly pop up on Audiogon for 500.00-600.00. I tried the Adcom,and there is no comparison to the Millenium 2. | |
| Not happy with Krell SACD I was checking one out at my local dealer. I opened the drawer to check out the title of the disc being played,and I couldn't believe how flimsy/crappy the drawer operated. It was very comparable to a cheap Pioneer. Maybe I'm spoiled but I'm used ... | |
| Good value upgrade from PSB STRATUS GOLDS to ? I used to have Stratus Golds. I thought they were not only beautiful,but sounded great. I now have Martin Logan Ascents. I have never heard more detail,the soundstage is enormous,and the imaging is incredible. I really really liked my Stratus Gold... | |
| concert DVD recommendations Thanks to all who shared their favorites. I appreciate all your suggestions- krelldog(who prefers Pass Labs) | |
| How long did it take to get your dream system? The true definition of an audiophile has a disclaimer attached in fine print: I will never be content,and will always feel a need to pursue better sound at any cost. Signed-Whatever your name is........... | |
| What after Aleph 3, need more juice? Try a Pass Labs-X-250 for around 3K or an X-350 for around 4k. It will make those puppies sing. | |
| PassX-250 vs PassX-350 Muralman1- I am amazed at my x-150 too. The only upgrade I would make currently is another Pass(250-350) I wish i could afford the 600's. Thanks again for all the input. | |
| PassX-250 vs PassX-350 Thanks Bhouser,and everyone else for the advice. The X-350 is 9K,but the used price recently is around 4K(actual ads)If I sold my 150 it might only cost me a couple grand more for the 350. Regardless I'm sold on Pass,and my decision is narrowed do... |
