whats the best addition u have bought for system What do you think would make the biggest difference for you? | |
Classe CAM-200..need good Pre-Amp I like Classe amps in general. I'd look for a second hand matching Classe pre-amp in your price range to start. | |
is too large a room no good? Large rooms are great in general. Gives the speakers more room to breath and express themselves.A big room can deliver a big sound as well, but it will generally cost more to do it than a small room. Larger speakers will be needed and more power t... | |
Rig building - When or Why, do you change devices? I guess the simple answer is when something doesn't sound right and it can't be addressed just by tweaking speaker placement to room acoustics.Sometimes its just because you get tired of what you have and want to try something different, but not n... | |
How much power is to much power? It depends.On room size, how loud you listen. That's about it.Realize that power alone is not always the answer. The amp has to be able to deliver power smoothly into the speakers variable impedance at different frequencies. Amps that double in po... | |
Does colored vinyl sound as bad as picture discs? You buy a picture disc for the picture. All bets are off regarding the sound. | |
Help with uninspiring sound with my turntable. Make sure its aligned properly and give it time to break in and get used to it. | |
Good speakers at low volume? Maggies , even, mmgs, properly driven, are hard to beat at low volume. Even at higher volumes, they will tend to disturb the neighbors less than dynamic designs.Apogees would be an interesting pick as well. | |

MAybe graininess would be better.Its only on some recordings , not all, so its not an inherent issue with equipment or format.I tend to agree with Shadorne... | |
When is digital going to get the soul of music? I do believe that the highest frequencies that can be heard are the hardest to get right regardless of the technical approach used (digital versus analog). This is because small errors in reproduction are more significant in relation to the high f... | |
What are the best digital recordings I can buy ? I do think that there really is and may always be limited demand for higher res formats because frankly the vast majority of people can't really hear a difference anyway due to limits of human hearing and also perhaps in addition to limits in the ... | |
When is digital going to get the soul of music? Really, what the h--k is everyone complaining about? We have more choices now than ever in the past regarding how we satisfy our personal music related urges and it will only get better from here. Maybe if just accept...........Nah!But I do think ... | |
When is digital going to get the soul of music? Shadorne, How do we know that some here, especially those younger, do not in fact have fully functional human ears that can actually can discern things clearly even beyond 20000hz unlike most of us?If they are over forty, that would be a huge exce... |
