PS Audio III Cullen Modified or Wavelength Proton OK, then I will be more specific, I have owned the Cullen modded PS Audio and found that it was not in any way in the same league sonically as the the two units I mentioned above, especially when considering cost.I have not had the Wavelength in m... | |

Van Halen or Van Hagar Bongo, I never go to In n Out when I am in SoCal, is it worth a stop? | |
Which TT for my system? I loved my Clearaudio Performance, and then tried several other tables, including VPI Aries and Scoutmaster, didn't like either.Something made me buy the VPI Classic though, I guess I was swayed by all of the great reviews, and it is the best tabl... | |
Bryston BDA-1 se dac I didn't realize the question was about the SE version. I have the standard Bryston version. I love modded gear, in general, but I don't see any reason to mod this piece. | |
Getting Started The great thing about Audiogon is buying used and minimizing potnetial downside. Your room is not too large, why not think about seom monitors (Pardigm S2, B&W 805, Totem's), Quad ESL 57's, or Magnepan MMG's. Amp will depend on which speaker y... | |
Bryston BDA-1 se dac It is very, very warm and liquid in my setup. It sounded better, more tube like, than any DAC I had in my system. The Berkeley I had was a bit more extended, but not as warm, and it cost more than twice as much so I choose the Bryston. | |
Van Halen or Van Hagar I've never heard of Kirk Hammett being a laughing stock of anything. Maybe there is some jealously of how popular Mettillica has been, but laughing-stock? No that's hard to take seriously. He has ripped off some incredible riffs over the years, an... | |
Converting LP's to digital files I keep wondering about this too. I am contemplating using a Korg MR2000 to do this. Let me know what you discover or do?thx. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? INXS - Kick (found an unopened one)Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti (found an orig pressing, that's pristine)The Beatles - A Hard Days Night (mono) | |
Van Halen or Van Hagar You know after watching "It Might Get Loud" recently it made me think about guitarists and their personal legacy, and I still think EVH is hugely underated. The man is a virtuoso on his instrument. I didn't always like VH, but I still think on alm... | |
Van Halen or Van Hagar Van Halen (Except I loved the album OU812, sorry, it's weakenss). | |
VPI Classic - Now you have one...... I sold my SDS after a few weeks with my Classic, it didnt' make the same, or any, difference, as it did with the Scoutmaster Sig. I also don't use a Gingko Platform as I had with other tables. I only use the Ring Clamp, that this is great. | |
Okay I Bought the Magnepan 3.6's I recently used a Pass X350.5 with my Maggies, and the sound was great, but it did strain a little at volume, and was not quite on the same level overall with Maggies as the best amps I have used with them: Cary CAD 500 MB's, SandersSound Mono's, ... |
