| Audio Rack Opinions Another vote for Symposium! | |
| Well mastered Compact Disks @kefas Thanks for the suggesion, I just previewed "Sings the Blues" on Spotify and then went ahead and purchased the cd. | |
| Goodwill music giveaways...almost. Anyone I've ever visited, most of the cases are empty, the good ones anyway, because people steal them. It's really a shame because it's for a good cause. If they kept them in the front of the store it would probably happen less, but of course the... | |
| Symposium still in business? Yes, they are still in business. I spoke to Peter on the phone not too long ago and everything is good over there. He sounded like things have been crazy busy for him. I know it costs a bit to call from where you are, but you might want to give ... | |
| How Much Power Do Vandersteen 5a's Really Need? I owned the 5A’s for quite some time and drove them with Pass Labs Aleph 2’s 100w/ channel and found this was more than enough power to drive them. | |
| MIT Matrix rev 60 speaker cables. Has anyone listened to them? Hi Hiendmmoe, wondering if you decided to give the Matrix rev 60 a try and what you thought of them.Thanks! | |
| Are Plextor burners compatible with Macbook Pro? Thanks for your responses. I actually did call Plextor and they said that all of their products are meant to work with windows and SHOULD work with mac but said that they could not guarantee it and said they couldn't offer any support. They only o... | |
| dts question I don't know what is going on but lately (in the past year) I have only seen one or two new movies with DTS encoding). Before this there were a lot more movies available with DTS. Does anybody know why this is? I agree that the sound in most cases... | |
| Pass Labs X600.5 or a Pair of Classe Omicron's? I have had both the Pass X250 and the Omicrons in my system and compared them side by side. I chose the Omicrons. If you like the sound of your Classe than I would go with the Omicrons. I definately found the Pass to be dry(although a great amp) a... | |
| Calling on Vandersteen 5a owners I own a pair in rosewood with a high gloss finish and would say without a doubt the gloss finish is worth it, regardless if you get them in rosewood or cherry. It transforms the speaker from average looking to exquisite and really makes the speake... | |
| The Chieftains - which CDs have the best sound? Tears of stone is outstanding sonically. There are a lot of different guest singers such as Diana Krall, Loreena McKennitt, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Coors etc, etc. Beautiful sounding female vocals. Enjoy! | |
| Vandersteen 5a tuning cd I called Richard Vandersteen myself about the same thing and he told me the disc is the Stereophile test disc. That is the only disc he and the dealers use. | |
| MIT Shotgun vs Magnum I agree with the above posters. MIT cables do require a long burn in time. One week is nothing. The difference once they are burned in is night and day and will sound like a different cable than what you are hearing now. The same thing happened wi... | |
| PrePro - Classe SSP-75 vs Krell HTS 7.1 vs ??? I own the SSP-75. I have never used the multi channel inputs, but can safely say 2 channel listening is exceptional. Going from the 30 to the 75 is a major step up. I can't imagine you would not be happy with the 75. | |
| Whats the coolest sounding movie? Fast and the Furious has some incredible sounding race scenes and is one of the best soundng dvd's available. |
