| Gryphon Colosseum vs. Karan M2000 monoblocks Congrats!!! Enjoy! | |
| Gryphon Diablo & Dartzeel CTH-8550 look forward to reading about your impressions, Hamburger. Enjoy | |
| Can a Marantz SA-1 be converted to DAC? Anything is possible...question is whether you get the right person to do it. I would start by asking some of the better known Modder's out there. Also, try Audioengnr here who runs his own digital company. The question is: a) if you could repair ... | |
| $3000 alternatives to Decware Zen Torii tube amp? I like CJ. The MV60SE is a stunning amp for the money (probably $1.5K these days). Could mono block though you wont need to...or save the rest for preamp. My background is Zanden, Sonus Faber, so i too enjoy magical midrange and avoid overtly brig... | |
| Brand new silver power cord is bright sounding Robertsong,Have you found specific comments about the cable to help guide you? Many people find burn-in can result in the sound changing...but be careful if you have only a limited time to return it. in my experience, silver does tend to brighten ... | |
| How to set up Velodyne dd15 Hi STreetdaddy,What i meant by 'basics' is that the autosetup should be a good place for you to start...you will see it will automatically take care of the radical stuff, moving around the frequency spectrum, etc...getting you to a decent configur... | |
| Amp for Sonus Faber Cremoma M Hi PKelly,I used to run SF Guarneri with CJ MV60, then SF STrad with MV60...which eventually was upgraded to Gryphon Antileon. I have listened quite a lot to SF Ellipsa, Cremona, Grand Piano and the earlier generation. In all cases, i found they a... | |
| Tube Preamp and Crossover with Sub Nice eequipment...seaton subs are serious stuff. Mirages nice too. Velodyne has an SRS-1 or something that is a crossover. Alternatively, you could run the Mirages in parallel with sub...yes, you still have main speakers running full blast, but yo... | |
| wilson audio watt/puppy 8 vs martin logan clx With Wilson WP8s, i love the MBL...but bloody expensive. It was my fav amp with them. Some like ARC, though i prefer more taught bass. Gryphon, Vitus, older Krell but wont have same treble refinement. Some might say dartzeel...not sure its got the... | |
| Gryphon Diablo & Dartzeel CTH-8550 thanks to mike and kiwi! Good to read. Know the Gryphon sound...up thru Antileon, yes dark...and agree with all comments above. Colosseum starts to change things where, compared with Goldmund which can have excellent treble illumination, Colosseum... | |
| Aragon 8008 mk2. or Parasound A21 Nice player and nice cables...smooth and deep bass. Tempted to say Aragon. | |
| How to set up Velodyne dd15 Yes, i think that is the other name or something. Good for you! Enjoy! Definitely set it up on top of the subdude and then calibrate...subdude makes a big difference. Good luck!feel free to post further questions. | |
| Amp for Sonus Faber Cremoma M PKelly1504You can use tubes for your 2 front speakers and a 3-channel amp for your center and rears. When you listen to 2-channel stereo...just turn on the tube amp. The key you will need to focus on is the difference in setting up your 5.1 digita... | |
| wilson audio watt/puppy 8 vs martin logan clx Wow...tough choice. Would personally go with CLX...and if you have the extra change for a ML Descent Sub...you have a world class, transparent transducer with powerful bass. Not that the WP8 is a bad option!!! Bear in mind, the CLX needs some seri... |
