Esoteric K-07 Opinions please
I have used a Esoteric DV60 and I found this player to sound very Amped up, very upfront ,in your face kind of too intense after a couple hours of listening. Great player build quaility and rock solid performace. I switched to a McIntosh cd201 I u...

I have a McIntosh MC352 stereo AMP (solid state). I drive a pair of Dynaudio Contour 3.0's.Click my SYSTEM next to my name and see pics. I want detail and attak! I listen to classic rock and Jazz mostly. I use a Prima Luna Prologue now and it has ... 
Entire system cable recommendation
I agree, used cables are great! For your system I would look into Kimber,Nordost,Morrow Audio. Stay away from cables that use network Boxes of any kind, It dosen't matter how expensive. Cables should be uncolored,transparent. A good cable allows y... 
Gruv Glide - Do you use it?
Sounds like Petro went a little too far with the Gruv glide....AND it helps to use a stylus CLEANER with this product...I experience excellent results using the award winning Gruv glide product.I treat my records only after wet washing them first ... 
Raidho D1/C1.1 vs Dynaudio C1 vs Magico Q1
The Dynaudio's will mate very well with the 956 mkII. Stands,of course will be of high quality for these C1's, that adds to the cost. Dynaudio speakers love power! I drive some Contour 3.0's (circa 1998) they are rated at 200w. With my McIntosh so... 
Do Slot loading Transports have sonic Advantages
I Just wanted to share with you guys that I took the cover off a McIntosh CD 201 player. Because my brother was complaining that it skipped on Super audio and red book cd's.Once inside I noticed the drive was made by hitachi and it was the usual c... 
What is the best subwoofer you have ever heard?
And IF any one post that SUBS are meant to be felt not heard is full of %$#@! because you have never heard a great sub then. 
What is the best subwoofer you have ever heard?
I listen to music with my REL Britania series NOT helicopters and explosions, so my views are reflective of my 2 channel audio exp. The REL studio series are not good musical subs.They are meant for HT. I like a sub that has the woofer facing you ... 
What is the best subwoofer you have ever heard?
Bo1972, I have always used my EARS to dial in my REL sub,it sounds very well integrated and does not muddy up my super fast main speakers (Dynaudio). The REL is very fast indeed and accurate.The REL allows my main speakers to be faster! And Its my... 
Do Slot loading Transports have sonic Advantages
No they don't, most transports are made of plastic, and some cheesy plastic clamping system. If you want a good transport system you have to search for well made ones ...Like the Esoteric Verdes Neo drive is an example of how good a transport can ... 
What is the best subwoofer you have ever heard?
Well Matjet, I like subs that augment the main speakers and blend well. So for me it is the REL Britainia series. I have the B2. If you don't connect it off the main amp...then it will never blend and you will always be tweaking with it. I hate th... 
speaker recommendations needed
Wow that is a tough question. Speakers like a persons ears are all different. But you can cut the list way down buy what power amps your using. If you switch to tubes you could go with something a lot more sensitive like 90db or better. Or you cou... 
Why are subwoofers so polarizing?
I never heard ANY sub blend well with the main speakers...Until I heard a REL B2. Which I now own.I use the Signal Cable Spkon connector right from the main amps taps. My main speakers seem to be much more engaging than before.And of course I can ... 
Troubleshooting toslink input problems on DACs
