HELP Electrocompaniet stole Christmas This is simply Byzantine and Neanderthal. I recognize that some companies' management decides to price products differently in different markets. Their hope is that their pricing isn't transparent because customers dont travel that much, dont have... | |
Finally Defined My Requirements. Recommendations? The ARC 16 looks great, i want balanced outs though. I think you've found yourself a good deal, and I bet you could find one online used for a good price! | |
Sunfire's new "Ultimate Receiver worth 4 grand? The cost is more? There must be 3 or more EAD Ovations for sale here (note: including mine) that are AMAZING in 2-channel and great in 5 channel. They all go for less than $2000. I'm sure there are plenty of alternatives, too. For your remaining $... | |
Finally Defined My Requirements. Recommendations? Do you know the difference between the SP16 and the 25? Balanced inputs and outputs? | |
Finally Defined My Requirements. Recommendations? Gosh, seems like everyone loves that Suptratek. If it only wasnt something like a 5 month waiting period and such high demand that you have to buy one new.Gosh, I sometimes feel like buying new gear is like buying a PC. Its worth $2500 now, but to... | |
Finally Defined My Requirements. Recommendations? Gosh, Subie, do you have any idea how hard it is to find a feature to feature comparison of preamps? I mean, there must be 20-30 different decent models, some with a variety of trims. So, I wrote down my wish list, hoping that someone could give m... | |
Picking the right amp... Try the EAD PowerMaster 1000 or 2000. The 2000 uses SE or XLRs, 15A or 20A power, and has user selectable input sensitivity. It is an unbelieveably great amp. Plus, because of its power steering circuitry, if you are driving just 2-channels, you'l... | |
BAT VK50SE vs. ARC Ref 1 I plan to upgrade my CD player (not sure which player yet) and add a vinyl rig (probably a Linn12 or a MMF-7 w/ a Cube phono stage). My amp is a EAD Powermaster 2000 and my speakers are Revel Studios. I will use Nordost SPM XLR between components ... | |
Which system? EAD - THETA - CLASSE I own the ovation and pm2000. Great combo. The strengths are the ovation's 2-channel output and the pm2000's flexibility and amazing sound quality. The older ovation is the weakest link because it doesn't have an analog pass-through, so you can't ... | |
$500-600 Used Tuner I have a don scott modified marantz. Brilliant work, superb transaction. I couldnt recommend one of his tuners more. You just have to HEAR the bass to understand what I mean. | |
Is a Phono required? Damned digital equipment are so marvelous in its flexibility, as long as you're pleased with the digital domain. As soon as you want to listen to an unsampled analog source, it all falls apart...As a result, I'm planning on selling my EAD ovation ... | |
Bringin' that thrift-store smell home I had this problem with rugs I purchased in India recently. The smells seem to be the result of bacteria and oils. I spread baking soda on the rugs and let them stay in the sun for a day or two, where they could get a good blast of UV light. Then ... | |
Is a Phono required? Yep - my pre does digitize everything...hence the need to move to a tubed preamp. This causes all sorts of problems with source material. On one side of the spectrum, my pre will digitize pure analog signals from LPs. On the other side, it will di... | |
Looking for a Shotgun... Sfar - how'd you like the sound of the silverlines? | |
Attention: Dunlavy Audio Labs out of business Yet another argument to buy speakers in the used market, risking only out-of-warranty service/parts fees from problematic speakers. Many people will now be left with speakers for which only esoteric buyers will exist.No company will buy this compa... |
