| Best internet radio LEt us know how the Sangean works out if you get it.I might add one also sometime. | |
| cable doubter no more Viridian,Cables are very very nice.My system could not work without them.I've tried straightening out some coat hangers and using these to connect things but it just ain't the same. | |
| Camel - Nod and Wink - Impressive Album "Also how about that sort-of rare "A live Album" Snowgoose sounds better here than studio!"Got it on London/Decca (I Believe).Outstanding recording! | |
| Genesis - Selling England by the Pound SACD I'll have to give it another listen, but I don't recall the sound on my copy of SEBTP on Famous Charisma as being inferior to the others (even though my copy has a lot of wear). It is definitely produced and mixed differently...it has a softer and... | |
| cable doubter no more Were I a dealer endorsing products on threads here (I'm not) I would disclose that information up-front. I suppose its not absolutely required, and individuals will make of it what they will, but it would seem to be the right thing to do nonetheless. | |
| Camel - Nod and Wink - Impressive Album "Breathless first thing on a sunday morning...........CRANKED"Yes!!!! | |
| Camel - Nod and Wink - Impressive Album I missed this thread until just now.I'm a big Camel/Andrew Latimer fan also.I have a copy of Nod and A Wink I picked up on Ebay from someone in Eastern Europe. Good stuff. I think it is a pirated version though. 90% of it sounds very good last I l... | |
| Best internet radio I have a small Sangean WR-1 mono am/fm table radio that has very good sound. I think they have a WiFi Internet radio version as well.I also have a Roku Soundbridge that I use as a digital wifi source for internet radio and in-house music server on... | |
| Genesis - Selling England by the Pound SACD I'm waiting for the boxed set also.I have an original CD mastering of SEBTP. It leaves much to be desired. Original Famous Charisma Label vinyl is better.I have the most recent but aging remaster of "Foxtrot" on CD. This mastering is not bad at al... | |
| Best DAC under $ 2,500 on used market I think you have many choices in that price range.If it were me, I think a newer model Bel Canto DAC would be high on my list.IF your system uses SS amplification, I would also consider a tubed DAC. You could start with an mhdt Havana ( | |
| low output MC phono preamp for Audio Research pre The latest from my dealer is that it looks like I would need to add an outboard device to the sp-16 for the Denon DL103R.He has access to a second hand Electrocompaniet step-up device of some sort for not too much that he thinks could work well. I... | |
| cable doubter no more Cable threads are a hopeless proposition I suppose.It's not hard to disprove an assertion though that all cables sound the same with some simple a/b tests on a decent system.Beyond that, good luck! | |
| low output MC phono preamp for Audio Research pre Darkmoebius,How are you doing my friend?I'm still working on this pre-amp deal. Thanks for feeding me tips!Do these stepup transformers affect the resulting sound quality typically in your experience, or are the better ones able to just stay out o... | |
| cable doubter no more "So would you also say dedicated circuits, electrical receptacles, power conditioners, and isolation transformers are merely tone controls? "No.They are a different kind of "tweak" that addresses a completely different aspect of the resulting sound. | |
