| JM Lab Diva vs 937Be vs Mezzo Utopia I own 937s (tioxid) and think the Mezzo sounded more musical the Diva seemed too polite. In My Humble opinion its not all in the tweeter the lay out and especially the mids of all elements sound better for no obvious reason in the Utopias | |
| Hyperion 938 question What are you looking for? They sound very good IMHO with real clean power if you like well defined sound. If you like your music thick and rich stick with what you've got they will play but I suggest at least 100wpc for the best dynamics when I ha... | |
| What's the best CD and/or multiplayer today Audio Aero Capitole is about 8K (I love my Prima) but the Reimyo is getting all the best press but its 15K. | |
| Question about Bach/Starker I have a MMF-5 set up with no sub and all I ever hear is magnificent bass tone from my VR2s. There is some natural sounding rumble but I didn't know about the truck, I love the 2nd suite. The Fourier on CD is superb if you want to try a different ... | |
| I'm looking for inexpensive bookshelf speakers. I second the choice of NHT SB2, I think you can get a pair for $299 and are excellent clean speakers. The NHT SB3 is more highly praised in the audio press and you might be able to pick up a pair on the cheap. I would add that if you like very def... | |
| How much does your system retail for? What your system retails for and what you pay are very different I hope. Thank goodness you can buy used on Agon. I would have to guess its entirely too personal to reveal what you spend but high end seems to have price points just like everything... | |
| Jolida 100 cdp I rolled CV4004 Mullards into mine with excellent results. | |
| What makes a $20,000 cd player cost 20,000? The best sound comes from the high end players but only marginally so as stated above. For the money "budget" players do an incredible job. I own 3 budget players 2 are in the under 1k mark the Music Hall cd 25 is a giant killer, I get amore relax... | |
| Please recommend components for newbie with $1K Get the NAD. The NHT speakers are a good suggestion. For floor standers,the Von Schwieckert VR2s are a great choice but they exceed your budget used you may find a pair for $1200. They are worth the investment. Did you consider the NAD 320cbee (I ... | |
| Speaker Stands Filled With Kitty Litter? TRUE??? Steel coated lead shot doesn't have dust to worry about and it flows very easily. | |
| VPI Scout Placement Spemd the money and get an isolation platform . Its the easiest solution. chains, sandboxes. Phooey! | |
| Speaker advice for Mac MC2505 I own A 2505 and must agree that they do well with almost any high efficiency speaker. You get 50 watts and thats it, 50 watts, the auto transformers see to that. They synergize well with heritage Klipsch but for a low level classical music guy th... | |
| Best Value System I am a traditional thinker in this regard. I agree with tmf and the others that suggest that the only thing that counts is what you expect. I have experimented with all manner of equipment seeking the holy grail for my style of listening in my spa... | |
| Jadis DA60 Do you know where one is for sale? please e-mail me! All I can tell you that the bias on the Orchestra deluxe was manual and fairly involved. | |
| Jolida JD100 on the way I have had very good results with the Mullard CV4004 as well which is a Military spec 12AX7. |
