| Test @rvpiano This is awesome. Congrats. Remote volume is a great thing, as everything we listen to has a different output level from one other. I know you experimented with bypassing your CJ preamp (going passive) and preferring the preamp. Your dac i... | |
| Rick Derringer R.I.P @guscreek, the experience was a great one for me, but not because of the speakers, although they were enjoyable (at that time, my mains were a stock pair of heavily damped Klipsch Lascala, which still to this day, is the presentation I prefer). Ri... | |
| Test @rvpiano, I hope you are having a great day, are able to relax and enjoy your music listening. My best, MrD. | |
| Test @richardbrand , sorry so late for a response. Admittedly, my classical music listening participation is quite less than the posters here, on this particular thread. I am a rock and jazz guy, 45/45...A great example of an exquisite "studio, multi t... | |
| Test @rvpiano , I asked about headphones, as you created a thread about having an interest in a great headphone system. I have a few studio headphones, all closed back (Sony, Denon, Audio Technica), as this has been my preference so far, however, I do ... | |
| Test @richardbrand, as this thread is based on Mercury recordings, and classical for that matter, I likely should not have said anything at all, as I totally agree and concur with everything you said. "Multi Track" recordings are what I was referring t... | |
| Rick Derringer R.I.P RIP, and condolences to his family and friends. Always sad when we lose someone we loved and admired. I met Rick in NYC back in the day, as I helped him purchase and set up a pair of mirror imaged Infinity Quantum QLS 1s. I enjoyed myself, that wa... | |
| Test @rv, I hope and wish you well, always. It is wonderful when you can enjoy the music through the rig. What I find the engineers, producers and the artists do right, and this requires a very fine ear, is the ability to take each individual track (st... | |
| Interim SS Amp - Likely Candidates? Or find a pair and use them to passively vertical bi-amp your Razz. A great alternative to what everyone is suggesting, and preferable, ime. My best, MrD. | |
| Interim SS Amp - Likely Candidates? Do not laugh. Purchase a 2nd hand Nuforce STA200. Cheap and musical.... | |
| Recommendations for a new subwoofer? I have had Janis, Monster, REL, SVS, and quite a few others in my lifetime, and they were always in pairs. I am now using, a single..........RSL 12S, and it is exactly what I was looking/listening for.....system is 2 channel audio.... With your bu... | |
| What is the most overlooked consideration? I suggest everyone here look up the meaning of "musicality". The "performance" and "composition", ime, is what I listen for, from my recordings. Timbre and tonal color, while important, has been changed from reality, once the mic and mixing consol... | |
| Do most people prefer tight bass or non tight bass? @tannoy56, my hearing checks great, and my "preferences" are, what they are. Tubes are not the best for me, when we are talking about bass slam, bass detail and bass control. I did state it is all subjective, and I do not appreciate your nastiness... | |
| Dynaudio focus 360 To all. I suppose the next thing for twangy57, is to receive his new, to him, power amp, the mighty Conrad Johnson Premier 350 stereo amp, an amp that will easily do the job driving his Dynaudio speakers. Considering he has not listened to the spe... | |
| Dynaudio focus 360 For many years now, a simple (well maybe not so simple to some) modification of mine was to replace the power cords on gear. Yes, go inside the component, remove the factory cord, and hotwire with a much heavier gauge power cord (gear that did not... |
