| Which $500 Speaker Next? With the Lightspeed in your system, I suggest you get a speaker with higher sensitivity i.e. > 89db. | |
| Did you get your new Music Direct catalogue yet? Yes received it 2 days back. Found out that they sell Yamaha now. And the CD-S3000 is listed $1K less. Similar mistake to what the Ringo covered catalog listed the Marantz SA-11S3. But I agree....very nice catalog indeed! | |
| Marantz SA-14S1 or Vinvent CD-S7-DAC Mrtennis,I would like to know your opinion on the comparison between the Marantz SA-14S1 and the Oppo BDP-105, if you got a chance to listen to CD/SACDs on both these players.BTW, nice review on audiophilia.com.Thanks! | |
| Best amp for 6 ohms speakers You ahve not specified the speakers nor the budget. So someone might recommend a top of the line Pass.I use Parasound A21 with my 6ohms Quad. It is more than sufficient with a Passive TVC. | |
| choose a DAC to complete my system I have heard the same about the BMC Pure DAC on another forum. Any reviews in the work? Except for one user review from Asia, I could not find much information on this DAC. | |
| Volume seems too low Oh...such a sensitive topic :-)You should look out for speakers that are at least 90+ DB sensitive. The more the better (and merrier). | |
| Parasound P5 Audiozen,Parasound JC2 and Jeff Rowland Capri fall in the $10k range. I have not heard any of the preamps discussed here. But I have reservations that the Onkyo is as good as those two - at least from online reviews. | |

| GIK vs Real Traps vs Others Which Co. products do you recommandGIK - been very effective in my setup.and why???I only have experience with GIKs. They are also affordable compared to others. Their customer service is very good. Quality of panels is pretty good. | |
| Parasound P5 While price is not the best indication for a component's performance, in this case I will have to agree with Audiozen regarding the P5. They have tried to combine too many things into that preamp and that price is unbelievable. I hope I am totally... | |
| Re: Marantz SA 7s1 vs SA 11S3 or Esoteric X05 There is a user "gotoma8" at audioasylum who recently purchased the SA11-S3. You might want to check with him. | |
| Sad but true – budget HT 10 years in making Did you audition Pioneer's Andre Jones designed SP-BS22-LR for the L/R surround? For the "one rear" speaker you can go with the center channel speaker in the same series. Do you HAVE to spend $900-$1500? As RW mentioned above, if you are happy wit... | |
| KEF LS 50 in NE Ohio? Jonathan1257,Did you check with Cleveland Plasma? | |
| Preamp with XLR input under 1k? Emotiva XSP-1 - fully balancedParasound P5 - XLR inputs | |
| How good is Empirical Audio's Parasound JC1 Mod? Doug99,here is Dan's review:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?ramps&1119985513His 2005 system shows that he has the amp. But the last poster in his review indicated that his amp was for sale. |
