| MBL 101E and the new released MKII differences It seems there are a lot of differences, including redesigned units - see:http://forums.avguide.com/viewtopic.php?t=3635 | |
| Speaker cables for Quad 63's Hi, I had great results with XLO signature 5.1 and cj or audio research electronics - sometimes it can be found at very good prices at Audiogon. A ggod friend also gets good sound with the old StraightWire Maestro and Virtuoso, using VTL tube ampl... | |
| mbl 6011d or arc ref 3 or dartzeel preamp? I own an Audio Research ref 3 and one year ago I also tried it with the Dartzeel amp. Best sound was using the umbalanced RCA input with the ref 3 in the invert position, but when the Dartzeel preamp with the BNC Dartzeel interconnect cable replac... | |
| Jadis amplifiers: rolled off treble? Mrtennis, Good point. May I suggest reading the online TAS review of the LAT 1000 speaker http://www.avguide.com/products/product-3830/ ? The LAT 1000 is also considered by many people a rolled-of speaker. | |
| Anybody heard Krell SACD mkIII? I only kept the unit for a few days. The noise is not excessive. The several seconds high noise, characteristic at startup of former units is now completely gone, and normal mechanism noise propagates mainly in the upper direction through the vent... | |
| Anybody heard Krell SACD mkIII? The SACD MKIII transport is less noisier than the previous versions but is not completely silent - you can year some mechanism noise through the upper cooling slits, but can not be heard when you are 1 meter away from the unit.Sealed units such as... | |
| audio reseach ref 3 or krell KTC...? Dave_b, why is the 400cx better than the 450mcx? As far as I know it is the same ampliifer with a single channel, but the power supply of each 450mcx has the same power of that of the stereo CX. | |
| Anybody heard Krell SACD mkIII? After 18 hours warm-up we listened to both Krell SACD units. The same cables were used for both players and speakers were LAT1000. Immediately after swapping the players we got the idea that the mk3 was more detailed and seemed to sound better def... | |
| Hum in ARC Ref 3 not on 0 but 1-103 light buzz Both the CD7 and ARC ref3 can introduce hum noise when the tubes in the power supply are faulty. However if you are using balanced connections with a really balanced amplifier this noise cancels and you will not notice it. A properly working ARC r... | |
| audio reseach ref 3 or krell KTC...? Just spent two weeks using my ARC ref 3 with an FPB700c without coupling capacitors - perfect match.Preamplifiers having teflon or low leakage dielectric capacitors such as used by ARC or conrad johnson should not be a problem. | |
| Anybody heard Krell SACD mkIII? Just got a SACD MKIII from our Krell dealer to listen for the weekend. The display is now white characters over blue background and can be easily read 3m away. Mechanical noise is lower than the mkI version. I have both units side by side and will... | |
| My new Krell LAT-1000. Anyone else like these? Just one detail - our Krell distributor told me that the cables at the Mirage were Nordost Odin, not Valhalla... See:www.hificlube.net... | |
| My new Krell LAT-1000. Anyone else like these? I can confirm that thety are really sensitive to cables.I tried several cables with the LAT 1000 but the best match was the expensive Nordost Valhalla. Pictures of the new Krell Modulare at CES2008 also show them with the Valhallas.In the TAS revi... | |
| Anybody else heard the Avalon Acoustics Isis? Do you have experience using conrad johnson electronics with the ISIS? I am particularly curious about the cj premier 350, that seems an ideal match. | |
| Opinions on Marantz SA-7S1, Nagra CDP I own a Nagra CDC, soon will change to a CDP, as I prefer to use a preamp than going direct to the amplifier. Some people do not agree with me on this aspect. The Nagra is an amazing CD - the most detailed and 3D I ever had. Depth and soundtage ar... |
