| Snell AIIIi - Replace or keep? These have been sitting in storage for almost 2 years now. I have some dali grand divas I've been using, but I still can't bear to get rid of the snells - they really sound awesome. I've been trying to figure out what I can get rid of to get these... | |
| Companies with good customer service? I'm adding Cardas to my list - they reterminated some speaker cables for me and shipped them back for free. Very good service. | |
| Von Schweikert Audio VR-4 I've actually decided to part with these speakers due to size issues - if anyone is interested in getting them, I've listed it on the for sale section of audiogon. They do sound great, but they really are too big for a one bedroom apartment, or at... | |
| Von Schweikert Audio VR-4 I got them on Saturday, but didn't get a chance to hook them up until last night. I nearly killed myself getting them up to my 4th floor condo, but am glad I did. They sound great - only problem is they really have some serious bass, which I am ki... | |
| Von Schweikert Audio VR-4 I'm flying blind on this one - the reviews I could find all sounded pretty positive, and they are (relatively) cheap, so I figured I might as well give them a go. I just sold an amp, so I figured why not. Of course, now I'll have something like 5 ... | |
| Von Schweikert Audio VR-4 I just agreed to buy a pair locally, which I am picking up on Saturday. Looking forward to seeing how they sound with my system. | |
| Used MF Trivista 21 or Benchmark Dac1? Has anybody here compared the MF trivista 21 the to the PS Audio Digital Link III? | |
| Used MF Trivista 21 or Benchmark Dac1? Thanks for the feedback - I'm a sucker for the heavy, substantial seeming pieces, so I may go with the TriVista. So many choices... | |
| Single ended or change to Balanced ? I have a krell kav 300d that I connect to my krc3 though balanced cables - I had some problems with my balanced interconnects (some old MIT proline - the right cable just died), and switched to single ended cables for awhile - I was frankly pretty... | |
| Krell Service I got my cd player back within four days after approving their estimate. It works great and is good as new. Overall, while it took awhile for krell to give me an estimate, I am very satisfied with the quality of the service. | |
| Krell Service I finally heard back on my cd player and it shouldn't be too long until I get it back - it ended up being around $500 to repair, but now I'll basically have a new cd player since they're replacing a bunch of stuff. The staff at Krell was very cour... | |
| Krell Service still no word on my cd player, but they are at least nice whenever I ask. I just hope it doesn't end up being too expensive. | |
| What is the benefit of a good transport? Thanks everyone for your responses, especially Shazam. I'm still wondering if it's a technology where new may be better or has it peaked and new doesn't really mean better. I currently use the toslink connection from my mac to my krell studio 2 da... | |
| What is the benefit of a good transport? So if it is about jitter is that something that new technology has improved upon or is an old (say early 90s), high quality transport more or less as good as any newer transport? | |
| Krell Service I sent my KAV 300cd in for repair about 10 days ago - they said it would be a few weeks before I even hear anything about a repair estimate. They have been very nice when I've contacted them, though. |
