| The best speaker you ever heard? Detlof, I'm totally with you that there is no speaker system that can reproduce an original event 100% despite some claims to the contrary. Anyone who doesn't think that is the case I would advice to go to a live concert of any kind, but large sta... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Mr Tennis, obviously you didn't read the title of this thread, or maybe you forgot, after all this thread has been going on for a long time. The title is, just to remind you: "The best speakers you ever heard". That means Mr Tennis by definition t... | |
| Review: Accustic Arts Reference Tube Hybrid DAC II DA converter Just read up on a Wadia WT3200, here's the link:http://www.lampizator.eu/LAMPIZATOR/REFERENCES/wadia%20WT%203200/WT3200.htmlIts basically a Marantz transport (Philips 960) from the early 1990s when CD first came out.

| Review: Accustic Arts Reference Tube Hybrid DAC II DA converter Ben, FYI ... the AA reference transport retails for EUR 6990 in europe. | |
| The best CD Player for the money Milen007, DSD is a fundamentally different way of reading the bits of a disc than PCM. The laser is thinner and the bits are smaller so hence can read more data. XRCD is a recording process, I think owned by JVC, that optimizes the recording and t... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Milen007, that's because the world today generally is not interested in higher quality sound but more interested in a downloadable, compressed, portable, convenient way to enjoy music. So all these higher quality formats only find their way to har... | |
