| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Jack thanks for the information. I better stay away from hearing the Sa-14 for I am afraid to fall into the pit. Just finished playing "Jacobs tracks" on Proprius label and I am in heaven. I decided to tweek the isolation on the Sony by adding sma... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Jes45Regarding the Sa-14TRL what would you say is the central difference over your Sony TRL? | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 I am in complete agreement about one thing and its not about the sa-11 vs the sa-14 or is the sa-14 better in balance mode or not, its the freeken fact that I also find myself getting less sleep. I have never had a digital front end deny me sleep ... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Wow. Sounds like a nice listening room. I would imagine its filled with goodies, carpet, furniture, tables, etc. I really believe in sound energy. What I mean is the total amount of energy produced by the system minus the amount taken away or abso... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Gandme,Could you tell me your room size and what level is set on your preamp with the Sony 2000es compared to your previous cdp? Also what is the efficiency of your speakers? Do you have a Ratshack meter on hand? | |
| Best value digital source at HE2005? You might try and look at what the folks at Hyperion are doing. They are introducing a new preamp and amp for less than 4k and I heard it at the Show. Their speaker has received great reviews and I liked what I heard. Put a TRL mod with a Sony 595... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Oldpet,Just came back from the Home Entertainment show. So far the hours logged are around 98. But my problem is made complicated by my new Single-ended amp. The designer said it had 10 hours of burn-in time and that I should expect the sound to d... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 The Sony 2000es is getting better and better. I admit that its a painful process to hear the system deteriote so much in the last 9 hours only to return full force tonight.The entire system is awesomely good now! The vocals have so much character ... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Hey Reb,What is this speed you are referring to? And what is it about the Marantz SA-11 you hated? That is a pretty strong word. Did you give it sufficient break in time? Anyone out there have the opinion that the TRL SA-11 in their system is mile... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Reb 1208I have a friend selling his SA-14 version 2. Email me and I will get you his number. By the way Oldpet you are right on the money my friend. My Sony 2000es at 74 hours just BUSTED OUT! All sorts of delicious air at the top sprinkled with d... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 No he was talking about the stock version only. At the time I was interested in the TRL SA-11 but I am getting spoiled fast with the 5-disc changer. | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Nice player. The Marantz SA-11 TRL version has got to be the best. Anxious to here more when you get it. It looks great and I suppose it will be great after Paul does his magic. I spoke to a fellow in Tawain and he says the unit has a lean charact... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 As I may have mentioned before I have some new additions to the family, a brand new Single-ended amp with its roaring power of 8 watts and a new engaging preamp. So I am dealing with 3 new units to break in. And as far as whether Jes45 is related ... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Hey Oldpet,I am also curious about break-in. Please keep us posted if there is any change at 100 hours. On my Sony 2000es I have about 60 hours playing time. The Ray Charles "Duet" sounds Rayish and enjoyable last night. I can't get over the fact ... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 OldpetWhat do you mean "really does it right". Are you referring to the neatness of the mods? I looked at the inside of my 2000es and I was a bit disappointed. I don't think about it anymore since I am in heaven with the sound. Now I believe the s... |
