| What is the deal with the ART DIO A thing I am finding is that if you can find a respectable product and have it Modified you will do better than paying 10-20X as much for some things.I have a B&K ST-202 that I will not sacrifice unless I need to drive a real difficult load.I ... | |
| What is the deal with the ART DIO I do not know what Bit DAC's you might be using ,but upon inserting the DAC with the new Canare Cable into the loop I was able to discern that some of the underlying Details that I was missing were more apparent!The effect is not astronomical,but ... | |

| B&K ST-202 or Forte 1A? Will take that into consideration,as I know that the designer knows my associated equiptment.I will confer with him to ask what he has for a system first! | |
| B&K ST-202 or Forte 1A? What I think I will do is talk to the designer of the speaker's first off.Great to be able to do that.From that I will search for the most musical amp for my taste.In my mind at the moment McCormick,B&K,PS Audio or a similar amp comes to mind.... | |
| Tubes plus SS Best system I had ever heard for what an average man could afford was an ARC Pre,Mark Lev. Amp & NEAR M50 speaker's.Remarkable synergy!That is the sound I am aiming to capture again! | |
| Suggestion for Amp to 2 ohm loads? Glad to see there are alot of Audioheads thinkin of this stuff as It becomes a virtual maze of what is able to do what!I will look at all the post to determine what might be the most musical to my ears!Wish I were a reviewer so I could do the samp... | |
| Suggestion for Amp to 2 ohm loads? I am in the process of getting a new,and I mean new,pqir of NEAR M50's setup.If you had the review of Stereophiles report on the stock version you will find that the Impedance drops to the 2ohm range.I will be getting the M50's that incorperate a ... | |

| What is the best used ARC Pre-Amp to get? The best setup I have ever heard used with my particular speaker's was a Audio Research Pre-Amp used with a ML Amp.I really do not care what other's might think of ARC's.There are probably better Pre-Amps ,but for the $$ I have to wonder.I forgot ... |
