| Breakin of Marantz SA8260 SACD player I believe Mike was trying to stress that at that price point it is the king - no other CD/SACD player comes close to it's sound quality in it's class. I have personally compared to CD only players costing upto $2500 and it would be very very diffi... | |
| Best monitor under $1000 Have you listened to Quad 12Ls? Audition them once before making any decision. | |
| Breakin of Marantz SA8260 SACD player Hififile,This is good news. I posted on audioasylum about the SA8260's capability to drive headphones. Which Grados are you using? I am thinking of Sennheiser 555. | |
| Breakin of Marantz SA8260 SACD player I leave mine in "Standby" all the time. I don't see much difference between OFF/ON on this player. But 1 thing I noticed was that it now sounds much better than what it was brand-new.Opinions on this unit - this is a superb unit. I have compared i... | |
| Music Hall CD-25.5 vs CD-25 w/mods?? Yes Pmt1209 - I stand corrected. I was thinking about the C352 integrated Vs the 320BEE integrated. So what decision have you made? I know - it is exciting and confusing - all at the same time :-) | |
| Music Hall CD-25.5 vs CD-25 w/mods?? The NAD C542's power cord is detachable (the BEE's is not). I am not sure if using a better power will void the warranty. | |
| Itching for an SACD player Marantz SA8260.But you need to compare it to others - in person. I took my dealer' demo unit home - listened to it 1 whole day against the DV7600 - which I badly wanted to buy because wife wanted universal player. The next day I took the SA8260 to... | |
| Music Hall CD-25.5 vs CD-25 w/mods?? NAD C542 + Signal Cable Power Cord should take care of your requirements. The power cord improves imaging, soundstage and cleaner backgrounds. The NAD also plays HDCD - if you are interested. | |
| Replacing Forests??? Jh2os,If you are anyways going to use 2 Dreamcatcher subwoofer, why not go for the Rainmakers?I have auditioned to the Rainmakers and Hawks, but not the Sttaf. The dealer was using the NAD pre/power combo to drive the Hawks and I thought they were... | |
| Advice on a speaker purchase Very true Walkman...they will sound a bit boomy that close to wall. But absolutely no complains in the midrange if that close to wall - atleast for me. Now after 7 months of placement position adjustment, I have got them to sound very similar to h... | |
| Good Interconnects for NAD? Signal Cable has a 30-Day (in home) Money Back Guarantee. John is a straight forward person and I have sent him "n" number of mails requesting info and comparison with other cables.Today my system consists of Signal Cable interconnects/cables - ex... | |
| Bringing the fun back into audio - cheap CD tweaks Cheapest would be to handle the CDs carefully and to put them back into the jewel-case after the listening session. Don't let your non-audiophile friends to handle them carelessly $0.Advantage is scratch-free CDs and jewel cases. | |
| Is my setup mid-fi or hi-fi? At then end of the day when you come home and play your music - it should relax you, make you want to play more, set you in that toe-tapping mood. If it cannot do that, then whatever the cost/brand - it is a shame-fi!! | |
| Advice on a speaker purchase Heeee.....I answered this question of your's on ausioasylum forum :-)). But will still say - audition the Quads. I auditioned them accidentally and ended up owning them. | |
| decent integrated to replace NAD 3400 A NAD is the only integrated that can replace NAD.Just kidding. But you have a lot of options in that price range. The only thing is you need to personally audition them. Start with Arcams, NADs, Rotels, Roksan Kandy, Music Hall, Creek. On Audiogo... |
