| So what is the best speaker you have ever owned? My current Coincident Pure Reference ExtremesNothing else I have heard are as dynamic with so little coloration when matched with my low watt DHT amp.Regards, | |
| Best 300B Thanks Abill,I'm sure your 300b tubes played a large part when Coincident developed the Frankensteins and their current speaker lineup.I have a good idea how suberb your system must sound.Enjoy, | |

| Best 300B Thanks Abill,I was more interested in how I can confirm when the KR tubes were made should I come across a nos pair available.They really are magic with the Franks but I have, like you, been victim of newer production reliabilty.Regards, | |
| Best 300B Abill,Those Kr's of yours are from another era when Kr was reliable. How do you know that they were from the late 90's?I am not doubting they sound great.Regards, | |
| Equipment that has made you 'stop' looking? My Coincident Pure Reference Extremes matched with the Frankenstein 300b MkII. No reason for me to look any further.Now I get to sit back and listen :)Regards, | |
| Do you remember your first cd? First cd Hell Freeazes Over- (the store used it as a demo disc when auditioning my old Sony cd player in the midlate 80's).First lp Zep IV- I had to do some work for my Dad to earn the 6 bucks needed for the purchase. I remember thinking I must re... | |
| Best high-efficiency speaker under 10K The Coincident Pure Reference and the Vaughn Cabernet are in two different leagues. As nice a speaker the Cabernet is,it doesn't nor would anyone expect it to be as good. It is not a bargain Pure Reference.The Super Victory would be a better compa... | |
| SHM SACD's need to be burned in Mceljo,in this particular case (SHM SACD of Aja only)there are specific sonic improvements that I have outlined that my audio friend will INSTANTLY hear.I think that a P01/G01 with the Gorb clock will offer the detail needed to confirm any change.... | |
| Led Zeppelen and Dire Straits Japanese SHM CD's I have read that the SHM cd of Dire Straits is superior to the SHM SACD due to the mastering used.Regards, | |
| SHM SACD's need to be burned in Mceljo,Why does it have to be specifically the laser (it may be)and not heat.Perhaps there is some coating that burns off. The SHM use material that has never been used before in other disc so this is new territory. I am sure you have tweaked your... | |
| SHM SACD's need to be burned in Thanks Bar81. I thought they were all single layer.Appreciate the confirmation. The op of this thread concerned SHM SACD`s only with the Steely Dan Aja SACD in particular.Regards, | |
| SHM SACD's need to be burned in Hi Alex,i trust only what I heard, and have no explaination for it.I never said the disc went from dull to crystal clear analog sounding. I said it went from inferior to my mofi edition of it (not an amazing cd by any means)to now clearly superior... | |
| SHM SACD's need to be burned in Tbg,I thought that the SHM SACD were not hybrids. I have ordered a few more but everyone I looked at played on SACD only.My OP concerns the SHM SACD only.Regards, |
