| Considering buying a CD transport Cooper52, I initiated a thread with the intent on focus toward CD players that make for good transport. Now thinking it to be overly redundant with this thread. I wish to defer to yours and will say so in my thread.I would think that the Cambridge... | |
| CD players that make for a great transport Adg101, I believe that the Cambridge CXC would likely be a good choice for someone with a quality DAC and with the stated budgetTo all, I recognize that this thread is somewhat redundant with a previous one posted by Cooper52. With my thread I was... | |
| CD players that make for a great transport adg101- I use a Bryston BDA-1 with Audiophilleo 2 w/Purepower for computer playback and Adcom DV-137 for CD and DVD spinning. | |
| The best separates between $2500-3000. Moving on from the original Rogue Sphinx Intg.. There is a pair of odyssey Khartago monos for sale on AG, came up today. Asking $1200. | |
| Alternatives to Rogue Stereo 100 Sounds like you found a great product at a good price. Congrats! | |
| $1600. preamp I owned a Modulus 3A and think it be a great pre at the price for a vinyl based system. Would look for a used Audible Illusions LS1 for digital. Currently using a Jolida Fusion pre ($1350 new) and enjoy it. | |
| Newbie With Magnepan 1.7is I use a 2.1 system in my living room for music and movies. I believe that a multichannel HT setup best delivers when used in a room dedicated to that purpose. Given that in your case music is primary and you are placing a system for a multi use ro... | |
| The best separates between $2500-3000. Moving on from the original Rogue Sphinx Intg.. If you are willing to go with a tube pre with a SS amp you might consider a Jolida Fusion all tube pre. I enjoy mine mated to a SS amp (BEL 1001MK5). The Jolida has output impedance of 600ohms, the BEL has input impedance of 22Kohms. Retail cost i... | |
| Considering buying a CD transport I also have a BDA1 which I use with a tube pre and an Arcam DV-137 as transport.. The shrillness could be the DAC/CA combination. I do have some CDs that sound shrill however mostly only early rock ones with analog to digital conversion. Any way y... | |
| Is my room going to suck I am with those that support using the room available and going with a nearfield approach. Room treatment will be beneficial. Get a carpet and pad for the floor. Wool is good. | |
| Refurbish a Dynaco St70 OK, so I have received my ST-70 from Atmosphere, purchased new tubes as recommended by Ralph, biased the tubes, and hooked to a set of Clestion F15 speakers for a trial run. Amp works perfectly and sounds wonderful. Ralph was a treat to work with,... | |
| Adcom a weak link? You never mentioned a budget for this upgrade. Which integrated are you using? | |
| Speakers for Rock - up to 1kusd Sorry to hear of your luck on the Paradigms. The studio 20s do come up on AG from time to time. | |
| Speakers for Rock - up to 1kusd I am a little late to this thread. I have owned the Studio 20s and currently have a pair of the BW 685s in a second system. I preferred the Studio 20s, believing them to be more dynamic. Wish I had kept them. Either speaker can be driven by a soli... | |
| Redbook Keeps Surprising My entire collection consists of redbook CDs (some vinyl) and I am very impressed with the sound I am getting from most. Running a Audiophilleo USB/SPDUF converter (for computer) or Arcam DV-137 disc player (CDs and DVDs) into a Bryston DAC. Have... |
