| How to get one the best 2009 sound from 1986 DAC A lot of players used to use it from what I've read and it seems to have a following.I would think newer DACs with newer chips can be as good or better, but don't know for sure.There are newer DACs that also do not do oversampling. Many others do.... | |
| AAD 7001 vs Magico Mini MK II Having hear both, what Frankpiet says rings true.The Magico Minis are fantastic monitors (they should be for the price) but I would not consider them a replacement for the Avalons unless you are willing to go for a different sound. | |
| Subsonic Rumble Solutions There is no doubt that thinner vinyl is more susceptible to warping and that warped records will result in subsonic noise that can cause a subwoofer driver to pump wildly if transmitted and not filtered somehow. A cartridge with lower compliance s... | |
| Good Bookshelf Speakers B & W, Dynaudio, Paradigm Triangle Titus 202s are front ported, have excellent sound and are not expensive, if you can find a pair used. I use them in my 2-channel 2nd a/v system. They sit inside the top speaker enclosures of two Ethan Allen vertical equipment racks and so... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I have BVSC. I'll have to give it a fresh spin. Replacing the old Carver pre-amp with the new Audio Research Sp-16 has really taken many CDs I've listened to recently to a higher and most musical level more in line with some of the very high end s... | |
| What is the best full range Speaker ? Your room is not that big so you should find many practical high end choices that you might afford depending on your taste and preference. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? "Besides the room-filling sound, IMO, the crossover-less midrange really makes a difference for a more natural (piano) sound..."I briefly suggested Walsh driver speaks for piano on another recent thread on the topic, but didn't go too deep into wh... | |
| RCA connectors for whole house audio system? Whatever works best or easiest for you should work fine.R.S. may also have wires with RCAs already on one end if you want to look to save having to solder connectors.To splice the wires, I remove 1/2-3/4 inch of insulation and wrap/twist the two e... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Your welcome.I'm just glad it worked out for you which ever way you went. | |
| RCA connectors for whole house audio system? You won't find many if any high end amps with RCA connectors for speakers. Radio Shack used to sell bare wires with male RCA's on one end. With these, if still available, you could run the bare wire out from an amp's speaker terminals and connect ... | |
| Best Blu Ray video and for 2 channel transport? Excellent question.I'm looking forward to the answers. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? "But if, like me, you find yourself starting to get hooked on the Ohm "room filling" sound, it's hard to accept something "less,"You nailed it. Most Ohm owners including myself would agree I think.If I had to chose 1 pair of speakers, I'd have to ... | |
| Ohm & Tubes -Part 1 Very interesting stuff.Marty, thanks for taking the time and effort to sort through the Ohms with tube power realm. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Barry,I was interested in and auditioned Gallo Ref 3's for my larger listening room after acquiring the Ohm 100's and prior to acquiring the larger Ohm 5's.I auditioned the Ref 3's in comparison to the top of the line $11000 Quad electrostats.
