| Wadia 581iSE vs Esoteric X03SE I have compared both and the Wadia was better for me. I compared the Esoteric X-01 to the Wadia 581ise. I had them both at the sametime. | |
| Audio Research Source - CD3 mkII, CD5 Not really a bad experience just didn't care for it for the money. I still own a Ayre C-5xe but the Modwright is really better. If you don't believe how good the Modwright really is read the 6 moons review. The modwright is nothing like the origin... | |
| Audio Research Source - CD3 mkII, CD5 Not so fast. I owned a CD7 until I tried the Modwright transporter. No contest. The CD7 went for sale the next week. I few things about the CD7. Do not leave the CD door open when the unit is turned on. The door blocks the tubes from venting. Bad ... | |
| Best amp for Sonus Faber Cremona M - need help I would never put a Musical Fidelity amp on the Cremona M. That would be very hard on the ears long term. The M is much different then the older cremona. On the older cremona I wouldn't mind the MF gear. I had Mcintosh MC501 on mine and it sounded... | |
| Avalon Indra vs Sonus Faber Cremona M For starters I don't audition speakers in dealer rooms. There is no way you can tell what a speaker sounds like in different rooms. To say that one speaker sounds better than another in different rooms on different gear is ridiculous. My room had ... | |
| Avalon Indra vs Sonus Faber Cremona M If Avalon could just make them a full range speaker the Indra would be awesome speaker. I just have a hard time buying a speaker for over $20,000 that does not go below 30 with some good output. Even the Eidolon just need more bass output to compe... | |
| Thiel CS7.2 vs Aerial 20T When I had the 20T in my house they were flat to 21hz and I mean flat. The 20t are the real deal and they should never be compared to the 7.2, not even close. I think the 20T are the best speaker under $50,000 followed by the Watt Puppy 7. | |
| Vandersteen 5A vs Mcintosh XRT28 I heard the XRT28 a few times and they are just awesome speakers and will make the hair on your back of your neck stand up. The 5a can get a little boring sometimes. I can see why you are thinking of changing. Same thing happened to me. | |
| Avalon Indra vs Sonus Faber Cremona M I have heard the Eidolon and the Cremona M and I liked the Cremona M better. The Cremona M fixes everything the old Cremona couldn't do or lacked. Avalon's are so damn picky on room and location it could or could not work when you get them home. | |
| Avalon Eidolon and Krell, good match or not? I think the Eidolon is one of the very best speakers when set up right. They are also amp friendly. The Krell CX amps are a big step ahead for Krell and they would sound awesome with the Eidolon's. I would never compare the B&W with the Avalon... | |
| Wadia 301 Vs. Azura 840c Wadia Wadia Wadia.... | |
| How do I spend $5000? A CD player or DAC for my De Boy if you can stretch to around $6000 yo can get a Esoteric X-01 used. I think that is one of the very best players made. We know it has the best transport. | |
| Best Speakers to match Ayre V-1xe and K-1xe I had great results on Dali MS5 with that Ayre combo. | |
| McCormack DNA-500 If you find the Conrad Johnson fatiguing you got problems. That is the finest solid state amp on the planet. The Conrad 350 is a much better amp than the Mccormack DNA-500. Good Luck.... | |
| CDP with volume and digital input...Which one? The Wadia 581se is the best one box player I have ever heard and it sounds great hooked up direct to amps. |
