When is digital going to get the soul of music?
You might have better results by asking a therapy professional.Actually I am a licensed therapy professional for 20+ years.Tvad- you are correct. The manner in which the question is posed indicates one who is probably not really seeking insight, b... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I agree with Johnnyturbo.I have some LP's I love on my modest rig, and some CD's and SACD's that are equally as satisfying on my setup.It is all good these days. :) 
CDP for MF A308 integrated
The Jolida is a nice player. I heard one stock in a shop for an afternoon and was impressed overall. 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
Joe- Good information to know. Thanks.I have read that on other Marantz units the balanced is a bit better also for some people in their system. 
CDP for MF A308 integrated
Lots of choices at the $1500 price point both new, used, or used and then modded units.Do a few searches here and at Audio Asylum forums.Don't be in a hurry and honestly-buy used for the best value.The MF A308 is a good foundation for any number o... 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
Drew- I think there might be some reference to that in this thread somewhere :)I would maybe email TRL. I actually have not heard any strong preference stated either way by anyone in the last six months and they have done quite a few of these I be... 
DVD -R or DVD +R
DVD-R's are seen as compatible with more set top units.Most computer and standalone burners will record both, but I would use DVD-R's.Here are a few sites that might be useful to you:http://www.dvdhelp.us/http://www.dvd-recordable.org/index.phphtt...

Lkdog, your post that prompted my commentary did not reflect this sentiment.Well, it was certainly not intended to offend you.You are typically very fair and objective and well respected in these forums.Some are not as ethical, unfortunately, and ...

Boa2-Am doing wonderfully this Holiday by the way, but thanks for your concern.I will keep your viewpoint in mind.Not sure how my comments are vindictive. Folks claim Alex works 18 hour days. I am glad business is good for him.Not sure why or how ...

Tvad- LOL!That is a little dramatic, but very funny!Actually, would really prefer all the bantering to cease and let's talk audio in a respectful manner.I know you feel the same as a pretty rational and fair guy.Hope everyone has a peaceful and ha...

Tvad- Not trying to distort facts to make a case and I apologize if it appeared that way. I just did a quick search. The basic point is that the original buyer for new digital units, and modded digital units takes a hit when selling.This is not re...
