HomeGrown Audio Impressions
Computer speakers/systems IMHO don't offer enough resolution for them to make a difference. Try putting one set between amp/preamp and one set between pre/source. You can also try them on your power cords if they will fit around without tearing in... 
SACD - Another year and ...
Remember, Sony is behind this format. They own half of the record labels out there and can support it. Also Sony has started to slip this format into dvd players, s9000es, and I would think this will trickle down to lower priced players putting th... 
anyone heard sony s9000es
thanks, I don't even know when these things are going to ship but I am starting to get impatient. I am wondering how the cd playback will be. Bmpnyc, you may remember my goal of replacing Cal. auidio Ikon MKII with combo player. Did you ever get y... 
cannot have dts sound plz help!
I believe the 7700 defaults to standard in case you do not have it hooked up to a pre-amp with processor for d.t.s. If you output dts to a non dts pre-amp from what the manual says all kinds of nasty sounds and damage can occur. 
best 5 channel amp for home theater
proceed hpa2 and hpa3, I know that is 2 amps but what the heck. 
PS Audio Lab Cable Vs Shunyata
Thanks Mikeam, that explains things for me.I am thinking of one of these for my next upgrade. I am currently using power wedge 116 but every one says this thing is better than any other "power product" out there. 
PS Audio Lab Cable Vs Shunyata
yes, but the power plant re-generates the power for a pure sine wave regardless of what was presented to it at the input so how does this work? It seems that no matter what you are going to see the same thing at the output. I understand p.c.'s mak... 
PS Audio Lab Cable Vs Shunyata
Just a qestion here but since the ps600 is pretty much your own power station is there any real need to use anything other then the p.c. provided to it? The power is going to be re-generated anyway you slice it as long as it is there and it has to... 
Bryston 4B-ST overkill for Paradigm ??
Another thing to consider, do you plan to upgrade speakers or any other component in the future? If so the Bryston amps would "keep up" with the level of your system. I have not heard either of these amps but I know going from Sonograph (low end C... 
where to find sacd's??
thanks guys, does anyone know of a retail chain that I could buy them locally from? Every place I have tried doesn't even kniow that there is another format besides CD!!! 
do tubes rock ??
you might want to try tube pre with ss amp. I would hate to see what you consider large! 
Anyone heard SONY DVD-S9000ES w/sacd
Kkirkpa, have you had a chance to listen yet? I just bought a 7700 and I am at the latest point that I can trade up. I was wanting to replace Cal. audio Ikon MKII with 77700 but it just does not cut it for cds. Maybe this one will??? 
Tube Pre-amp beneficial?
I upgraded from Conrad Johnson, Sonagraph (solid state) to CJ pv10a which is Conrads bottom dollar tube pre-amp and it gave a much warmer sound. I am running it to a Proceed hpa2 and Martin Logam Aerius i. Brand new I think they go for about $1200... 
EVo Proceed amp for Newform R645?
I like my hpa2, but I have not heard the EVO. Do you have local dealers so you can try both? 
B&O, overpriced artistic piece of audio?
Sound is not the sole critera???? Why even bother then, Bose look great in with most decors.
