| Best Recording of Solo Tambourine This is so lame. The tambourine sucks, and once you get some real hours up listening, you will find out how fast the magic fades. After a few years you will wish you could not even spell tambourine (i used spellcheck). I am with audiofeil and plan... | |
| Does long hair destroy the soundstage? The consensus is to get a haircut to hear the soundstage, but its rumoured that you dont have the strength to move your speakers to tune the soundstage once its cut.... catch 22 ? | |
| Does long hair destroy the soundstage? Could a small scissors be the ultimate tweak? Do any of you notice the sound is much worse shortly after a hot shower? I think the eardrums are soggy from the steam and hot water. | |
| Good CD for testing bass response I would also agree with Theo. The Bella Fleck track is useful for a variety of purposes. Really works the amp, speakers, walls, windows and ears, Should also come with a warning label. I have a theory that you can improve or change the bass charac... | |
| GamuT D3i vs Audio Research LS 26 I would be very interested in what you hope to change about your sound. Having just bought a D3i for my M250i, I am obviously impressed with Gamut and this preamp together with the Gamut power amp, but of course it is not tubed. I have considered ... | |
| Gamut M250i & D3i -- superb. Denon, did you get a chance to compare the X series with the K03 directly? How would you describe the difference in a bit more detail. You have got my attention on the K03. I would be especially interested in the characteristics/comparisons of voc... | |
| Gamut M250i & D3i -- superb. I am using the X03-SE which I enjoy very much and have high regard for. I would like to hear the K-03 and K-01 one of these days, but not a priority and I am extremely happy for now. Esoteric is a brand I would not move away from very easily and I... | |
| Gamut M250i & D3i -- superb. Posted too fast :) I should also add a couple of points: There is definitely an improvement in the soundstage. I found it wider and deeper -- more 3 dimensional. Cant be sure it changed in height, and I cant compare anymore as the integrated is go... | |
| Gamut M250i & D3i -- superb. Denon1, if you have experience with the Di150, you know what I mean when I talk about the Gamut amplifier "magic". This integrated amp opens the window to high end in a way that no amp I compared with did, and it is a bargain in my opinion. Even t... | |
| Any Recommended Amps for Dali MS4? FWIW - I am running the Helicon 800 mk2 on a Gamut DI150 with great success. Perhaps the fact that they are both Danish helps. Have tried a few other amps with a few Dali speakers, and this is the best combination by far for me. Excellent results.... | |
| Mystical Performances Issabre - you and I are thinking alike. A few tracks for you to try: Vienna Teng - Homecoming (Warm Strangers)Patricia Barber - Too Rich for my Blood (Cafe Blue)Alison Krauss - Jacobs Dream (A Hundred Miles or More)Eva Cassidy - Fields of Gold (So... | |
| Noise on Eva Cassidy-Songbird CD This is an interesting question to me, and it sounds like you have particular problem on your CD from what you describe. I know this CD well, and if your system is good enough it resolves a very fine backround hiss on some tracks of this compilati... | |
| Top Alternative Rock Albums of 2008 Bongofury, thanks for the Calexico lead. Excellent! | |
| Best cover songs? I second Eva Cassidy. Almost all her covers are superb. | |
| the best CD player between 6'000 - 10'000 $ ? Teddy Bear, I have only compared the Gamut CD3 extensively with the Eyre, and there was no real comparison. I lived with both for weeks, and the CD3 was clearly superior. Thats why I put it forward here, as others have mentioned the Eyre. One thin... |
