| Why the limit on warranty to subsequent purchasor? Sean,Amen. If a product is well built and well designed it doesnt matter if its a second or third owner it should last at least awhile, as the price of high end gear is not cheap.If I shell out $7000 for an amp it should hold up for some time if I... | |
| Why the limit on warranty to subsequent purchasor? Those Manufacturers are greedy and want you to buy directly from them,if you want piece of mind. | |
| Classic preamp for Plinius SA-102: need advise I used to own a SA 100 mark 3 and I tried it with an old VTL delux pre amp ($ 600 used maybe less) and it sounded pretty good, smooth and airy and a little sweet. but not the last word in definition, thats something I'm always willing to sacrifice... | |
| Any one try pa amplifiers for home stereo? TWL is dead on, stay away from that list. A good used Krell for a $1000 will provide plenty slam and sound way better.In the long run you will save alot of money from not having to resell it at a significant loss. | |
| How does Sony DVP-S9000ES compare to other Sony's? I had it for two weeks and it shut down three time. SACD playback is good, but CD is just ok perhaps a little bright and forward sounding.I would like a little more "body" to the midrange.You have to connect it to a tv first to access the menu to ... | |
| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IV Speaker Simply the most satisfying speaker I ever heard for under $10k. I owned a pair for 7 years. I still miss them alot after a move to a smaller room forced the sale.Heigt, width and depth of soundstage, purity of tone is capivating, makes other speak... | |
| Hovland HP-100 vs. CAT SL1 Ultimate: Feedback Hi Kalan I believe your situation of ouput .vs hight input sensitvity in not isolated to the Cary. I had the same problem when I mated the Cat with a Plinius SA 100 mk 3 (which is 1 volt sensitive input to full power) to my 91db sensitive Dunlavy ... | |
| B&K vs Adcom – opinions please Hi Hapdog,Looking at your system, it reminded me of a very similar set up I had. It consisted of a Marantz CD player,Hafler 945 Pre amp, Adcom 555 Amp, and Apogee Ribbon/cone speakers it was my first serious rig. At the time I had read many rave r... | |
| Hovland HP-100 vs. CAT SL1 Ultimate: Feedback Kalan, the slam 100 has a very high input sensitivity .85v I believe, so its a very poor match for the Cat. Its probably agressive and in your face. No wonder you don't like the way it sound.The Cats depth should sound as if the soundstage is 20 f... | |
| If i had the money..... Brulee brought up a very interesting point Stereophile seem to love everything they review these days. I remember awhile back before they were bought by some huge media company, their reviews seem to be more on target, maybe its just my paronoia. ... | |
| Hovland HP-100 vs. CAT SL1 Ultimate: Feedback I haven't heard the Hovland Pre but I know that one difference between the two is that the Hovland has only 16 dbs of gain .vs the Cat's 20 plus dbs. So the input sensitivity of the parnering amp is something to consider.I have owned a Cat SL1 Sig... | |
| Should Class A Amps be left on?? No do not leave them on all the time. The heat generated will lead to pre mature failer.I have owned several Class A biased amps and they need about an hour of warm up to sound good.Also youd be wasting electricity. | |
| Opinions on why this system is uninvolving I woud look into upgrading the speaker cables the Prime are a good budget cable but not up to the level of your system.I recently borrowed a pair of Tara Ref. Gen IIs from my dealer and they sound very nice. They would also add a little warmth to ... | |
| Amp upgrade recommendations I had a DNA 1 for about 2 years and it is a good amp.However it is not as refined or detailed as the Krell KSA 250 not even by a small margin and not as liquid or sweet as any of the Aleph series amps from Pass Labs. My suggestion would be to look... |
