| Amp for Focal Scala Utopia IMO I have to agree with your thoughts about the 275 being too slow and not detailed enough for your speakers,that was my reasons for moving on with that amp when I owned one a few years ago.I think thats one of the down sides of McIntosh.I also d... | |
| Piano Notes On Harbeth SHL 5 "so is it only me" No its not only you,IMO if you like the speed,transparency,detail etc of Dynaudio theres really no way to go with Harbeths.Although Ive never owned Harbeths(and never would)Ive listened to them way too many times and always came... | |
| Speaker cable vibration? For once I agree w/Audiofeil | |
| Playstion one audiophile stereophile review LOL...Yea it cracks me up when I read what all these guys are doing spending bucks for mods and upgrades to this THANG..Cant make a silk purse out of a sows ear!!!! | |
| Playstion one audiophile stereophile review The D/A converter on playstation one is high end like $5000 D/A converter CD player but if upgrade the power supply they will sound more increable and unbeatable price VS $5000 CD playerYou must spend alot of time in Humbolt co | |
| Playstion one audiophile stereophile review I have 2..and IMO they are just average,sounding about the same as my old player I retired in the early 1990s.If you think these "smoke" you havent heard a real great player! | |
| Nuforce & HiFi IMO,its a cheap tweek to try.For me its snake oil as I tried different fuses in different systems and heard nothing really | |
| The search among the great ones - 20k+ speakers PhaelonIve not only heard Focal and Raidho ..but owned both of them!Your suggestion about SET amps is ridiculous,and one should always buy speakers first then match the amp to them.The college verbage may sound correct but doesnt really apply,IMO. | |
| The search among the great ones - 20k+ speakers IMO, good start on a short list although I would eliminate B&W imediately and having heard the Focals alot I would scratch them off as well..but you should include Vivid and Raidho | |

| Dynaudio packing Grill on or off Not always..My C4s sounded more coherent with grills on | |
| speakers/sub IMO ,your getting bad advise outside moving the system to another space.I doubt a room 10-13 room has"wonderful bass"as stated(unless youve never heard a really great system then maybe).To suggest a sub choice for a 10-12 room is quite comical as ... | |
| Dynaudio packing Grill on or off If not mistaken Dynaudio voices its speakers with grills on..My dealer suggested leaving thme on while listening | |
| Used players better than $1.2K 13 yr old player? Nope, their are two of us. I found the oppo the same sounding as you described. Maybe a poor match in my system , I really don't know for sure but it dissapointed me but I know a few who love em. Nope, there are 3 of us!! | |
| B&w 803s. Vs nautilus 802 Stringreen..be careful what ya say,seems the followers of B&W dont take kindly when you bash their brand.Although one would think they would be use to it by now. |
