| K2 HD Disc Hi Rlainwright,Are you sure you have K2HD or K2. K2HD is a newer mastering process,and I don't believe there are that many out yet and nothing prior to late '07.K2 has been out for quite a while and I also have quite a few. While some are absolute... | |
| amp with gain volume control Hi Zhzoller,Would you consider the 'Dragons' on there own and not bi-amp? I've heard them with the pures which are very simular to your speakers, and the sound was nothing short of incredible.I however,wouldn't consider selling my 'Franks' at this... | |
| K2 HD Disc The sound is great.I like to add to the two selections you mentioned, Track 2,track 6, and track 16.The entire disc is imo demo quality.I have a few K2HD discs and love the sound of them all.If you like explosive dynamics,check out 'Master of Chin... | |
| is it best to leave my Marantz SA15 cd power on.. Hi Matadortf,I am pretty sure that all lasers turnoff when not in use.I can't comment on display burn in.My current cd has a standby.I do leave the display off most of the anyways and prefer listening that way.Leaving it on has had an effect at al... | |
| amp with gain volume control All I can add is "Dragons" could run the whole show or just the bottom. I've heard them biamped with the franks and on there own with amazing results.Disclosure: Happy Frankenstein owner! | |
| CDP / DAC Advice required I agree with Dungn.For 2 grand I'd pickup a used Electocompaniet EMC 1UP and not look back. Very analoge in sound. I just picked up a very good sacd player but I still keep the Electro hooked up as it has a sound I very much like and don't want to... | |
| is it best to leave my Marantz SA15 cd power on.. I always leave my cdp on,unless the unit has a standby mode.If I turn the power off,it takes a day for it to sound good again.Some of the players I've had in the past had tubes and I left those on as well. | |
| veiled sound? Re: Pink Floyd CDs Look for the 20th anniversary of DSOTM,used if you can.I see them around in the 10 to 15 dollar area. IMHO sounds great | |
| Which speakers are higher efficiency? I run a pair of 300b 8 watts SET with Coincident Triumphs Extremes and two passive subs with wonderful results filling a room 20x23x994db@1meter but most important a flat impedance curve of 8ohms | |

| RIP Jay Bennett He passed away in his sleep last week of May,cause still to be determined.I just found out.He had some health issues and didn't have any health insurance. He was looking into a hip replacement and was either going to pay out of pocket are barter f... | |
| Bookshelf Speakers with “Big” sound? Coincident Triumph Extremes occasionally come up used. A little over budget new but they will be just waiting for the time you move back into tubes! | |
| Charles Lloyd suggestions Hi Martkl,"I feel that Abercrombie and Meldhau are as integral to the music as Lloyd on this project."That is the reason I put Lloyd in your thread 'Overshadowed by bandmates' | |
| Coincident Super Eclipse or Devore Nines? I agree with Chayro.Already having extreme wiring in your speakers,there is alot to be gained by having extreme speaker cable and interconnects.Should bring the sound more forward and further decrease any veil that you may have and not realise is ... |
