| More Liquid & Larger Stage Bal. Digital Cable ? Purist Audio Dominus or Kharma Grand Reference both are in a far superior class. PAD more liquid than Kharma; Kharma a bit more detailed.Neal | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? Just because the current state of engineering science (which, in the digital audio sphere, is still relatively young)cannot adequately explain why digital cables might sound different from each other does not mean they do not. I have experimented ... | |
| Chord 64, ECD-1, Audio Logic, Dodson DAC opinions I have lived with the Dodson for 3 years now, first as the 217 MKII D, then with 218 upgrades including isolation transform at coaxial input. Stated simply, it has "disappeared" into my system. I never give it a thought. It is so neutral, detailed... | |
| Warm Detailed Bi-Wire for Magnepan 3.6R Try AZ Satori shotgun biwire. Will add more body without major detraction from detail or high end. Cardas will cut off the high end.Neal | |
| Dodson MkII D....Can't be THAT good....right ? I have a 217 MKII D with 218 software upgrade and isolation transformer at SPDIF coax input. I use it with a CEC TL-1X, with a Kharma Grand Reference digital cable, then on with Nordost Valhallas to a Wyetech Opal preamp and a Krell FPB 300 cx amp... | |
| New Nordost Cable Valkyrja There is a review this month in the UK magazine HiFi+. The basic message is these are as close to Valhalla as one can get without buying a Valhalla, but not quite Valhalla level.Neal | |
| i2 Digital X-60, digital cable Great cable for the money, an improvement over D-60, but really not up there with the best. In my experience, this cable is surpassed by Nordost Silver Shadow (good); AZ MC2 (better); Siltech G5 (almost best); and the king of them all, Kharma Gran... | |
| Any recommandation for the Von Schweikert VR-4 SE I have VR5 -SE's. The AZ Satori Shotguns work very well with VS speakers, but I just moved to Ensmble speaker cables with Ensemble jumpers and I find their imaging and detail superior and bass is deeper and tighter. About a 15-20% improvement over... | |
| Krell FPB-300 -W?- Pre- AR MRK 11 or BAT 50SE-51SE I use a Hovland HP100 pre with Krell FPB 300cx. Marriage made in heaven. no problems with matching.Neal | |
| Silverline?Thiels? Audio Physic?: Need guidance I drive my Silverline Sonatina II's with a Krell FPB 300cx power amp (300 watts/ch and very musical; much different than earlier Krells). My speakers sing with this amp. Excellent clarity, tight (but not overly deep) bass, an unequalled midrange a... | |
| Cardas spkr. cables: Quad vs. Cross vs. Golden Cr I have used all three. If you can, go for the GC, it is quite audibly the best. But there is a larger increment of improvement between the Cross and the Quad than the Cross and the GC.BTW, I LOVE Cardas interconnects. | |
| A good integrated amp for Silverline Sonatina II The thinness is probably coming from your CD Player, and not helped by amp. I have these speakers, and they sound anything but thin. They are wonderfully smooth and full - bodied. I would suggest Cardas Golden Cross (or Cross if that's all you can... |
