| Should I PURCHASE AN EXTERNAL DAC ROFL STEVE buddy ur killing all of us here! SO according to you Stereophile is full of *&^$ and the OPPO is not a class A rated audio device for 2 channel? It sounds like *&^% because of all this jitter coming from the highly re guarded ES... | |
| Lyngdorf /McIntosh/Sonus Faber Home Theater / Music Room All ill say is that at this level things are different not better.Matt M | |
| Mcintosh MC7100 opinion This MC7100 is the baby brother of the MC7200. The circuit design in these two amps is very different from MAC’s autoformer based designs. These amps are lighter and run hotter, McIntosh made these amps to drive harder (other than 8ohm) speaker lo... | |
| Recommendations for a phono amp Uhhhh for that table I would recommend a Pro-Ject Phono box. Great little unit.Matt M | |
| What equipment uses 5687 tubes? The MANLEY LABS Jumbo Shrimp linestage pre-amp uses a set of 5687's. among others.Matt M | |
| What music or equipment gifts did you get for Christmas this year? I got a Gold Lion 12AX7 tube for my headphone amp and a couple New Vinyls. (Mayer Hawthorne, Kandace Springs) from my wife :-)Matt M | |
| Total newbie question here about completing a system Newkphoto , Skip the EQ great idea! " analog signal from a computer source ".... huh??? You would need to take the signal from the computer using a OPTICAL/TOSLINK cable connected to a DAC which will have a set of analogue outputs that go to... | |
| Looking For A Change For around $350 used ($1000 when new) you could buy a ADCOM GFA 555 200wpc (8ohm) amplifier and a GFP 565 preamp $300 used ($800 when new) the GFP has one of the best sounding phono sections made. These two together will provide a very astonishing... | |
| Should I PURCHASE AN EXTERNAL DAC Go with the OPPO 205 or 105, both are very good! You will be very glad u did when you can replace two players with one! Also, built in dual ESS Saber DAC's with stereo RCA or XLR outs, will blow away what your old units are doing. This is a giant... | |
| Dynaudio Special Forty vs. Contour 20 If you have the electronics....The special 40’s are insane, give them clean clear power and they will amaze, I did mention power right? Ya, they need that in fact twice what they are rated for! And no tube amps here they want fast dynamic power w... | |
| KEF and Paradigm Fast, I would buy the KEF's in a heartbeat. But here is what I'm worried about for you. The Ref 3's 91db rating is a little misleading as these speakers are 4ohm, it will take a AMP of considerable power (300watts) to make them really open up and ... | |
| RT81 vs AT-LP60? Rega ...you cant go wrong with that RP1. Agian I would mount a Ortofon Red or maybe a Blue :-) | |
| Most overrated bands Dude Listing LED ZEPPELIN 1st as a overrated band, just showed me you no nothing about music and you should sell any audio equipment you might own! Matt Miller | |
| Ikea Eket shelves with a large vinyl collection? Plus 2! for the Kallax shelving, you can buy single or double ones and stack them sideways or look at a huge quad! . This is one of the best products for holding vinyl period! http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10275862Matt M | |
| Which watts are the right watts in SS amps? This is why I buy McIntosh Double or Quad balanced design. The Mac autoformer takes care that the amp drives the rated output across all loads 2,4,8, without raising distortion! (which these other brands dont do) This gives the Mac a very non fati... |
