| krell kav 300il - what are your thoughts? I had one in my system,,, i ,, wasnt impressed,, very thin sounding,, there are others that i think are better for the money.Good luck in your search! | |
| Wadia Vrs. Rega Planet 2000 I have owned the Wadia 23 and currently use the transport version Wadia 22. I dont think you will be a bit dissapointed in the sound, i use it in conjunction with a Levinson 36 dac, but the 23 is still an excellent sounding player, it uses the Pio... | |
| Home Theater or Two Chanel sound Quality ? I would agree with snootybiffer here, Even the Proceed AVP-S would be a huge upgrade for 2 channel comparatively to what you're looking at, very good in 2 channel and very good in home theater modes.I keep my amps seperate as well and it works for... | |
| How Revealing Should a System Be? I believe,,, a slightly different theory.Does poorly recorded material sound GOOD on a non revealing system? I think no, i think with more revealing setups the joys of well recorded music can outweigh some of the actual content.I found this to be ... | |
| TIps for photographing gear for ads? This is EZ.1st of all, if at all possible, use a tripod.Best is ambient natural light with no flash, if this cannont be done, use a flash and stay off angle slightly to diffuse glare.It is MUCH better to take the photo from farther away and zoom i... | |
| Question to Levinson DAC Owners I use the stock cord on the Levinson so far and most of the time an entry level Shunyata on the Wadia.I have a Voodoo 90 degree iec but it wont fit under the Levinson ;-(I continue to look for cords for it. | |
| How much burn-in for Soliloquy 5.3s I would agree partially with everyone here.However i would go one step further,, and say even longer than 500 ;-(I left them on for days and days and days,, well, you get the picture.There really is no reason for this,, i got tired of them hurting... | |
| Does Your System Sound Like the Real Thing? I truly think my stereo sounds MUCH better than live.It may not sound the same, but when have you been to 2 concerts that sounded the same? how many were held in accoustically correct rooms?Of course we are all at the mercy of good recordings.Inst... | |
| Question to Levinson DAC Owners I use a fairly inexpensive Wadia 22 with my Levinson 36 with VERY good results, it took away all the hard edges of the music, most important when using B&W 804's which are too forward with most combinations.I have hooked several Transports to ... | |
| What do you like about your "favorite" retailer? This is pretty ez,, most people treat you with so much dissrespect.If you go into a place like Sounds Like Music in Scottsdale, AZ you will see the true difference, They have 1000s of cd's on the wall for you to use as you wish, if you want to hea... | |
| best sub $1000 receiver for music? The Marants SR 19 EX is stunning for 2 channel, no idea about home theater, but for 2 channel,, you won't find anything much better except for maybe Marantz's higher end.I used a Denon 5800 for over a year.I was shocked.I borrowed it for one eveni... | |
| recommend a good computer and digital camera? Ive owned more than quite a few digital cameras, you really dont need huge megapixels to take good pictures, i have had good results using several of the olympus models including the very economical D-150 to the more expensive 4 megapixel D40. One... | |
| what center speaker to go with Kef 104.2 I would think a Kef 200c would be exactly what you need.These are fantastic sounding speakers, i think it sounds better than my B&W HTM-2.Hope this helps. | |
| Is the B&W Signature 805 less harsh than the N805? I would search out cabling as your solution, I have had both 805's and have 804's and they are picky about what is upstream from them, you did not mention which cardas cables you have so it is hard to tell which direction you may need to go.I woul... | |
| Transport needed for Mark Levinson No. 36 I use a Wadia 21 or 23 and both work very well.I have the Phillips as well but its a bit more analytical than either of the Wadias. Wadias like these are a great value for the sound they put out.Hope this helps! |
