| Has anyone in Mi.acheived holographic imaging? One of the most holographic experiences I have had was in a dealership. The system was a Mac computer w/puremusic feeding a Simaudio integrated into a pair of Dynaudio X12s. Speakers were placed far from the back and side walls. One could literall... | |
| Passive radiator My only experience with a passive radiator was the original Vandersteen model 2 which I owned between 1986 to 1994. I never heard this design as a failure. | |
| Pangea Power Cables comments I use the SE versions on all my gear. Was skeptical about the value of the XLs. Thanks for your input, Lowrider. | |
| Phono Preamp? +1 Zd. What is to be gained depends on what one seeks to gain. | |

| Best Dac under $600... New or used Not that the benchmark is less than a good product for the money, I have seen many (as Truman above) on this forum characterized it as bright or analytical. It remains a popular DAC however. As one that has a system based on a digital front end fe... | |
| anyone ditch their metal speaker stands? I owned a pair of the 300ti speakers. Wish I hadnt sold them. I believe the sonic difference you experienced could likely be due to the height difference than to stand construction. I assume based on your description that the speakers were placed... | |
| Setting up an audio system This is my 3rd view of this thread and I have been hesitant to respond not knowing if or how to do so. I am in no way the most astute contributor on this forum, and my system budget was, as I take to be, about 1/2 that of yours. However, I find my... | |
