From B&W 801D to Dynaudio evidence temptation? Curious if you got your speakers and have had some time to listen? | |
Movies that featured High End equipment American Psycho - The Huey Lewis scene has some KEF(?) tower speakers and a nice stereo stack - not sure what brand the components are - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzN3qO-qc8U | |
Synergistic Red Fuse ... I've never tried or heard any of these fuses. The analytical part of my brain questions why they would work, and is attracted by those who would say it's all expectation bias, voodoo, etc. However, I also recognize that there are plenty of thin... | |
From B&W 801D to Dynaudio evidence temptation? I just got my Confidence C1 Platimums and I'm blown away at how great they sound. I listened to some music that's very trebly and had 0 fatigue after several hours of listening. With the B&Ws I was already sensing it after 10 minutes at the ... | |
From B&W 801D to Dynaudio evidence temptation? I don't think the tech has changed nearly enough that a near top of the line speaker with the very best components is now outclassed by something 2 levels below it. (and if so then Dynaudio is taking a very strange approach to their speakers - tri... | |
dinosaur ISO player... What about an unmodded Oppo? All the models prior to the current decoded HDCD so you could probalby find a nice 105 or something from someone moving up for 4K. My 95 has been rock solid. Even if you don't like the stock DAC you mention DAC isn... | |
From B&W 801D to Dynaudio evidence temptation? Nice - hope you update us once you've had a chance to hear the Tempatations in your setup. | |
From B&W 801D to Dynaudio evidence temptation? Nice problem to have :)I spent a few hours this week listening to B&Ws (803 and 804s not 801) at the local shop. As a Dyn owner I found them much more forward than the Dyns I've heard (haven't been lucky enough to hear Temptations) and sharpe... | |
Floorstanders dynaudio: Contour 3.4 LE or Contour 30 or Excite X44? What about another set of C1s - Platinums, with a subwoofer (or 2) if you want to get a bit deeper? You know you'll like the sound and a well blended sub can get you deeper than even C2s if you are looking for bass. I've had good luck blending m... | |
Which of the new 4K Recievers do you prefer? Similar setup with the Marantz Pre-Pros would work. I have the AV7005 which has been great. The new AV7703 looks pretty fantastic. They aren't upgradeable like Emotiva and are very large, but I love my AV7005 and would probably get either the E... | |
Which of the new 4K Recievers do you prefer? If you are happy with your Dennon's sound you could consider using it as an amp only by feeding a pre-pro analog outs to it and using "source direct" to bypas all the processing, which would be done in the pre-pro. It's a bit less elegant than p... | |
Devialet Phantom? I haven't heard them, but agree they look fascinating. Their website says they can play over wifi or bluetooth so no need for Devialet front end (but can take optical as well from a pre-amp etc). They are more of a Sonos on steroids concept. W... |
