Lamm ML2, VLadimirs best effort to date? I have had both the Ml1 and ML1.1 and as far as sound they both sounded about the same. The ML1 did sound a bit better overall but is was broken in more when I had them side by side. Both are amazing amps and just about the best I've heard. I use ... | |
VAC Standard limited edition preamp I like Aesthetix in that price range. | |
Best amplifier for Wilson Maxx 2's Boulder Is the best I've heard on the Maxx2. The new Conrad Johnson amps would be very good on them also. | |
Mac C2300 vs Aesthetix Calypso/Rhea? Your out of your mind. The C2300 would be a step down. Trust me I've owned both. The C2300 is not even truly balanced. Those XLR jacks are just for looks I guess. Not sure why you would put XLR jack if they are not truly balanced. Aesthetix is ver... | |
Will a Conrad Johnson fan like Modwright LS 36.5 Odd because I thought the CT 5 was much better then the my LS16. I do know that the CT 5 takes forever to break in because of the Teflon caps but in no way did I think the LS16 was even close. You can call ED at CJ and he will tell what he thinks.... | |
anyone using piega speakers? I hated them. I owned the C10 ltd and couldn't wait to sell them. Some of the worse speakers I have ever owned. They also have a very inflated retial price IMO. There's a reason why they are so discounted on audiogon. I figured that out the hard way. | |
Will a Conrad Johnson fan like Modwright LS 36.5 CJ preamps with the Teflon caps in them very very good. I'm not a huge fan in there preamps that don't have the Teflon caps. If you can move up into the CT5 then I will say there's no contest but even with the two you mentioned I would still go wi... | |
Aestheix Calypso owners,tube advise needed It's only done only at Aesthitex.... Aesthetix has a new website at aesthetix.net. IT's about time! | |
Avalon Eidolon Diamond price Johnax I just sold a pair of Diamonds in that color so email and I will tell what price I got for them. | |
Modded transporter vs stock with external DAC The modwright is better then stock units going to 99.9% of DAC out there. The only 2 DAC's that might be better is the Berkley or the Levinson 30.6 because what they do with Jitter. I'm a true believer that you get everything analog as soon as pos... | |
Aestheix Calypso owners,tube advise needed Have you looked into the signature upgrade? I have had both and the signature is a whole different level. I was very surprised at how good the signature is even compared with some of the best preamps. You forget all about low noise tubes with the ... | |
XLR Connector Comparison Nothing compares to Xhadow connector. They are the best.... | |
Upgrading from Wilson Sophia 2's? I have found them more Aggressive then Fatiguing. But we all hear different and we all have different rooms. When I had my Maxx 2 they were to aggressive for me no matter what amps I used. But it all comes down to personal taste at this price poin... | |
Upgrading from Wilson Sophia 2's? Madfloyd you may want to look outside the Wilson line. I'm afraid that is the Wilson sound. As you move up the line you get more of it. Some people love and some people don't. I would look in this order. Verity audio will give you the bass impact ... | |
Does Wilson Sophia Sound good at low volumes? I've owned both Sophia 1 and 2 and they need to be driven a little to get going. I wouldn't call them a good low level listening speaker. Kharma is very good a low levels but don't sound good a higher levels. I know what you mean about the 802 rea... |
