| Packing & Shipping Large/Heavy Speakers Thanks to everyone for the advice. I will be contacting manufacturer for advice as well as various crating/freighting companies to get an idea of price and services, and if that fails I will try to (over)pack on my own. | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? Thanks for the excellent info, Elberoth. At this point I'm definitely leaning towards Accuphase, though the 901 combo is a bit more expensive than what I was looking for. The 801 may hit the sweet spot with regards to price and the sound I'm looki... | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? @Guidocorona: Yes, I'm thinking the K-01 simply isn't my cup of tea. I still very much believe it's a reference level player, but at this level it really is about individual preference. There are numerous things the K-01 does better than my old Re... | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? @Autosports: If you are talking musical versus analytical, both two players are among the most full bodied, warm, musical machines out there. There is something very wrong going on if that is not coming through.I think the only thing that's "wrong... | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? @Azjake: The Accuphase gear does look very interesting, but super-expensive as well, especially for the two-box combo. I'll make it a priority to try it out, though. @Guidocorona: I do have the K-01 in balanced mode. I'm not a fan of the DSD filte... | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? @Guidocorona: One reason I've waited 6 months is because I've been diligent about burning in and trying the different filters and combinations on the K-01. While there is a marked difference between them, I still haven't found one that can match t... | |
| Home Wiring? @Stenersr:A sincere thanks for the report. This actually helps out a lot. I have my entire system on vibration control, and it definitely makes a discernible difference, especially in terms of reproducing transients accurately, increasing speed an... | |
| Home Wiring? Thanks for your reply. I will definitely check around to see what my options are. If I can get another line/box installed I think that would be the best route. If I can't then I'll have to assess and go from there. | |
| Home Wiring? @Musicnoise: Everyone's entitled to their opinions, but the idea that there is no difference is not what I've heard from both people who've done this, and in my own experience listening to systems on and off dedicated lines.@Lak: I'm rather new us... | |
| What's your profession? Age? -Online Poker Player-23My system is worth roughly 50k. | |
| Power Stabalizers/Regenerators. I'm Confused... Ok thanks. I am thinking of buying and trying several of these components (plus a Nordost Thor) from MusicDirect along with some Valhalla Power Cords and using the 30 Day Return Policy. Maybe by then I can get a good idea what sounds like what in ... | |
| Power Stabalizers/Regenerators. I'm Confused... What is AA? What exactly does having a "dedicated line" do anyway? | |
| Power Stabalizers/Regenerators. I'm Confused... I've heard about getting a dedicated line before. How do you go about doing this? | |
| The best CD Player for the money I'll just chime in and add my recommendation for the Rega Planet 2000 for the sub-$1000 category. Fantastic player that performs well above its price point. The Jupiter is even better (though perhaps not as good of a bargain) and it's quite possib... | |
| EMM vs Remiyo Just out of curiosity, where's the other Reimyo v.s. EMM thread? |
