| Music vs. Components I truly believe that the majority of audiophiles listen to components. People that are only in it for the music don't need hi end equipment to enjoy the listening experience.I'm not saying that audiophiles don't enjoy listening to music, but that'... | |
| What's the cost of an entry level vinyl setup? Thanks for the info. This is more of a "phishing" thread at this point to learn more about vinyl. I'll look for the thread you referenced. It would take a lot to convince me to get into vinyl. If I ever have a dedicated audio room it would be much... | |
| What are we really trying to replicate? Excellent response. Ever thought about getting into politics? | |
| Which of these SACD players would you choose? Hmm, I won't dispute what the article says on the Norah Jones CD, but it wasn't the only CD used for comparison. I think it does sound better in the SACD format, but it isn't a significant difference. I'll listen a little more carefully next time ... | |
| Which of these SACD players would you choose? Anyone in the market for a CD player should consider this unit. It is simply amazing. All of the standard CDs that I have played have given me something new to hear. The ones that are SACD just go another step beyond.Lucky for all of you I'll be g... | |
| Which of these SACD players would you choose? My new Pioneer Elite PD-D6-J Super Audio CD Player arrived this afternoon and was waiting for me on the porch. The SACD version of Norah Jones' Come Away With Me was in the mailbox to complete the evening experience. Bottom line, it sounds wonderf... | |
| Which of these SACD players would you choose? "How many hours on Integra VS Pioneer?" - The Pioneer is probably over 8 years old and the Integra is fairly new. I'm not sure why that matters as they nearly sound the same. The biggest difference is from going from Integra analog to Integra digi... | |
| Which of these SACD players would you choose? I compared the Integra CD player using an analog connection tonight and it sounded very similar to the borrowed pioneer. I wasn't expecting the two CD players that are different brands and ages to sound more similar than the Integra CD player comp... | |
| Which of these SACD players would you choose? I should probably clarify that the Integra CD player is connected to my Integra 50.1 receiver with a Toslink so the receiver is doing the d/a. | |
| Which of these SACD players would you choose? Tonight I did a little comparison between my Integra CD player and the borrowed Pioneer SACD/DVD player. First, I compared a burned to the standard track on the SACD on the Integra to see if there was any difference, I didn't notice anything. When... | |
| Who R U? I'm a new addition to the forum and probably won't be an active regular in the long term, but certain am enjoying being involved at the moment. I'm 32 years old, hold an engineering degree, currently work at a Navy shipyard and live in the Pacific... | |
| SACD availability Art - Are you talking about the lossless audio that now comes on most of the new blu-ray movies? As far as I know, it's essentially the same as redbook as compared to the audio having some level of compression on standard DVDs. I would agree that ... | |
| Any body have experience with OPPO BDP-80? "Why do you think the Elite will be better on SACD? And are you not going to compare?" - JfzThe Oppo is a less expensive unit with significantly more features. I realize that a more expensive unti isn't always a better sound, but it's certainly an... | |
| Any body have experience with OPPO BDP-80? I pulled the trigger on the Elite SACD player and will take advantage of their 30 day return policy if necessary. I think it will be the better SACD player and that's the main goal. | |
| Any body have experience with OPPO BDP-80? I don't see myself ever spending $2,500 on any type of CD player, simply too rich for my blood. That's nearly a factor of 10 off from what I'm spending. |
