| New Technics SU-G700 Mk II on the horizon Oh, one more thing. SACDs playing through the Technics have a definite edge over most CDs. There's that something, that je ne sais quoi that CDs don't normally have unless they're mastered by an artist and not some guy just doing his job. The Te... | |
| New Technics SU-G700 Mk II on the horizon I’m using a pair of JBL 4319 monitors. For the first few days I thought that the JBLs didn’t have enough body as the sound was so clean but a tad bit lean. After things fleshed out over the past week, my CD case’s glass doors now vibrate in sympat... | |
| New Technics SU-G700 Mk II on the horizon Ah, @mr_bill , you caught me after listening to Anais Reno and Lady Blackbird. I sit about 7.5' from the plane of my speakers and both sound like they were about 10' away with a level of clarity I've not previously experienced. With my Marantz the... | |
| Differences the Project RS2 Transport and the (newest) Jay's Audio CD2 Mk 3 Yes, I saw it in Alvin's email in my inbox this morning. Looks nice. A new CDT and R2R DAC.https://6moons.com/audioreview_articles/jaysx2/ All the best, Nonoise | |
| The Law of Accelerating Returns When I read the article I had quite a laugh. We have to remember that TAS serves an industry based on the simple assumption that spending more money gets you better sound. Anyone, even multimillionaires, want to think they are receiving good valu... | |
| I wonder what you would think if we scheduled a monthly Zoom Meeting? It's no fun being of the lower caste. | |
| Scored 3 isoacoustics isolation feat, now what? One more thing about the Oreas: I found the best results to run contrary to what the maker said (as well as MusicDirect). I ended up with them directly under the footers on my gear. All the advice from both were to experiment placing them direct... | |
| The sound quality from DACs - is it all the same? Isn’t your “cousin brother” also your cousin? Maybe your family tree differs? Do you mean something like this: Look ma (sis?), no branches. All the best, Nonoise | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? Nothing wrong with integrateds, at all. | |
| I wonder what you would think if we scheduled a monthly Zoom Meeting? I’ve had stage fright since the 3rd grade. That, and I’m afraid one of you is really Will Smith. All the best, Nonoise | |
| High quality CDs @rman9 ,I'm right there with you on the upgrade itch and don't feel bad about the rock you live under. It offers great insulation from the heat. 😄 I'm doing my level best to hold off on getting a newer and matching SACD player for my new integrat... | |
| High quality CDs I didn't see if they were mentioned but Channel Classics is great and so is Erato. All the best, Nonoise | |
| Scored 3 isoacoustics isolation feat, now what? Right now I have the Technics SU-G700M2 (which I recently acquired) and a Marantz SA-15S2b SACD player. I started out with a Marantz PM-15S2b integrated using the Oreas. All the best, Nonoise | |
| Scored 3 isoacoustics isolation feat, now what? I use the Oreas under my integrated and SACD player and will never take them out. They made a noticeable improvement. And like twoleftears said, heed the recommendations on the weight limits. To try them out, I ordered one set that just met the ... | |
| Do you spend more time analyzing the sound of your system, worrying it could be better? I went the same way (got something that I could play my TV through) and am now enjoying better sound from all my sources. Removing the soundbar and it's stand not only got me better sound but better looks, to boot. A lot less clutter. I'm also e... |
