| JPS Aluminata v Stage III Concepts Magnus Prime The JPS Aluminata are among the kings of cables. I installed a pair between pre and power amp about 3 years ago, transformed system, and have not moved them since. And among other IC's in my system are Valhalla's, Stealth Indras and High Fidelity ... | |
| How To Get The Best Sound From Pandora & Rhapsody? Best possible sound from Pandora, Rhapsody, etc. is to turn it off. It's junk sound. Neal | |
| What about the Belles SA-100? I have had a 150A Hot Rod that I use in my BR system for years, and I bought it used. Very musical, plenty of grunt, a steal for the money even new. Assume Ref series even better.Neal | |
| Wyetech Labs Ruby Std preamp - any views? No problem, Peter.BTW, before I bought the Opal, I had a Hovland HP100. It was my first tube product, and was gorgeous to look at and sounded great, albeit a bit light in the bass.Neal | |
| Wyetech Labs Ruby Std preamp - any views? The Teflon caps made an enormous difference. The one criticism I had about the Opal is that it was a bit thin on top, especially on strings. The Teflon caps provided a much smoother, more full - bodied and natural sound. Strings sound quite "sweet... | |
| What is the best DAC under $3000 PS Audio PWD MkII. I have beem listening to digital since the Magnavox CDB 650 (the first 16 bit player), and the PSA is a superb piece. For the first time, digital doesn't do anything to bother me. This is a sweet machine.Neal | |
| Wyetech Labs Ruby Std preamp - any views? Has anyone compared the Ruby STD with the discontinued Wyetech Opal pre? I still own mine (with upgraded Solen Teflon caps) and I would sooner have my right arm pulled from its socket than give it up, unless the Ruby STD was notably superior.Neal | |
| Transport to Audio Research Dac8 Bryston BDP-1 or -2. This is exactly what you are looking for.Neal | |
| Weiss is so underrated Thanks, Levy03. Has taken years to put together, with a lot of trial & error, and just when you think you have it right . . . . If you can, try a pair of High Fidelity cables. I was skeptical, but they are the real deal.Neal | |
| Weiss is so underrated Dweinstein,How about my system, which you may or may not find impressive:Krell FPB 300 cx ampWyetech Opal preamp with Solen Teflon capacitors, Hi-Fi Supreme Gold Fuse, NOS 6sn7 tubes, Herbie's tube dampersBryston BDP-1 Digital Transport connected ... | |
| Weiss is so underrated DWeinstein,I have been listening to digital players since the first 16-bit Magnavox 650 came out and have upgraded as technology has advanced, so I think I have a decent idea of how DAC's should sound. The PWD MkII is a very high level DAC, both f... | |
| Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution? Geoffkit,To answer your question directly, a videophile certainly would want to see the specs and any videophile magazine test results before purchasing. And while not determinative, I always review specs on speakers, amps, pre's, CDP's and DAC's ... | |

| Best rock bass player jack cassidy of the Jefferson Airplane/Hot Tuna. Listen to any live Airplane album and you will hear how he unobtrusively drives the band intensely forward.Jack Bruce is a technical great, but when playing with Cream went off on his own path durin... | |
| Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution? Geoffkit,Yes, I think I follow! The reason the specs matter even if an amp or other component sounds good in a showroom is because that is a limited time audition in an environment different from your home, and anomalous specs may tell you there w... |
