| Recommendations for solid core speaker wiring? DNM-look no further. | |
| What would you buy Sub $350 Firewire/USB DAC Your list indicates you have done a doctoral on the subject, "Prof". Jolly good show. | |
| Music Hall CD-25.2 VS Rega Apollo VS Rotel 1072??? Rotel and Rega swing. Rotel adds HDCD chip but not sure if it's better player overall. Can't go wrong with either. | |
| $500 used CD Player Recommendations Craig-I was trying to be cute. ANY Rega CD player swings and...they are fairly analog. NOT bright like the Naim CDX, which I found hard to take for long stretches of time. | |
| Bryston B100SST vs. Naim Nait 5i Well, there's a guy that knows his stuff. Listen to Mcfavre. The Exposure 2010S kicks and you can get an on-board phono card! | |
| $500 used CD Player Recommendations Rega or Rega. | |
| turntable newbie: need advice for better sound You can "max-out" that TT by contacting KAB Acoustics. Google them. Kevin is the owner and he knows the Technics better than anyone. The rest of your system, leave alone! | |
| what kills soundstage depth? When your speaker is close to the wall behind it, the depth perception is minimized. Pull any speaker (and I mean ANY) forward and you'll hear (see) more depth. Personally, I could not give a rat's ass about soundstage. I NEVER think about that wh... | |
| Rega RB250 bias adjust? My Rega 700 arm also likes to return to the "rest" point. I have heard this is OK-it is because the arm bearing is frictionless.Yes, go with 1, or so, on the antiskate when you track at 1.6 to 2. | |
| How do you level your turntable? "Cheap" bubble levels are adequate. Why do you feel the need to go more high-tech? Does your table sound bad? | |
| Vandersteen 1B versus 1C? I just bought 1c version. Very good, easy to drive, easy to like. If you want a more analytical drive, look elsewhere. They are relaxed and inviting. | |
| Need to replace my Totem Acoustic Arros Vandersteen 1C are easy to listen to, easy to like, organic, and INEXPENSIVE. Try a used pair and move up the line if you like the "house" sound. I own the 1C and have no real aspirations to go further. They are NOT the most resolving speakers, bu... | |
| Location change means compromise I'll suggest the Exposure 2010s with phono card built in. With ONE box you've taken care of power amp, pre-amp and phono stage! And, it sounds great. | |
| Which Integrated got you off the merry go round? Naim 5i, Exposure 2010s, Rega Brio and 47 Labs Shig are all great. All may be too INEXPENSIVE for you to get off the carousel. | |
| Problem with Ayre C-7xe CD player? I owned the same player and, while it sounds great, the "read" issues annoyed the daylights out of me. I sold it. |
