| ? about wadia i70 I'd give it a big yes especially if it's Pandora One with its 192 kbps vs 128 w/ads (every little "bit" helps). I've been streaming PO that way for over a year and been pleased with the sound. I'm using a Cambridge iD100 to my favorite DAC and, in... | |
| Small integrateds: red wine, bel canto or wyred? Re the Red Wine Audio amps:I have owned the 30.2 for 5 yrs. I use tubes and class A ss in my main systems and got the RWA for mostly summer use as heat is an issue where I live.I think it sounds great and enjoy listening to it and my ears are tune... | |
| need advice with power cable Agree with Zman and if you can't hear a difference I'd go with keeping it plugged in to the Panamax for some protection from a surge or brownout.You have to learn to trust your ears. Don't argue with me. :-) | |
| Audioengine A2 Speakers - Welcome To My Office I've had my 5+'s for a week now. I'm not hurrying the break-in process, guessing around 30 hours or so. Bass got better. Still liking the sound.One thing I find interesting: These seem to change from just average to real nice during the first 5-10... | |
| Are there any audiophile quality streaming options Sfar,Can't thank you enough. Once again your answers are perfect. I plan on trying that 14 day trial starting tomorrow.I'm listening to some easy Jazz on Pandora One right now. I am pretty impressed with the quality on some of the better recorded ... | |
| Are there any audiophile quality streaming options Sfar,Thanks. That was as excellent reply.I put the MOG app on my iPad from the App store. It said it was free. I know you can get a 14 day free trial for the paid one. Do you know what the free one does? Is it still at 320 kbps?Also, when it downl... | |
| Are there any audiophile quality streaming options Sfar,Re your 3rd paragraph...couldn't agree with you more.I've been enjoying Pandora One for almost 2 yrs now. I've been thinking of trying MOG out. Can you tell me what the human interface is like comparing it to Pandora please?Love to hear from ... | |
| Clearaudio Concept - Used - Careful " If you need to do any adjustments "contact your local dealer". I'm sure my local dealer would love me to bring in a used Concept when he has several new for sale."Why assume this. Call him and ask him what he would charge. Or would you be wantin... | |
| Audioengine A2 Speakers - Welcome To My Office Congrats on your A2's. I just got a pair of A5+'s 2 days ago. Out of the box was nice and seem to be getting better as they "age". I think we have a couple of winners here. | |
| Why do audiophiles shun feedback in amplifiers? Charles, I'm with you. | |
| Why do audiophiles shun feedback in amplifiers? Charles and Frog, I like your posts.Going up one level on the "Structural Differential" :DWhen products are measured with a bleached input, then the closer the bleached output is the more "accurate" that product is. Hooray for some, not so much fo... | |
| Pass xa160.5 and McIntosh c1000c/t/p No problem. I think they will work great together. It's nice to have both options with the tube and ss. I run a tube pre in front of my 30.5 and 100.5's. | |
| Mcintosh 601's vs Classe CA-M600's Mike,Agree. Sounds like a great match...sonics and power. | |
| Mcintosh 601's vs Classe CA-M600's Mike,There are those who think that smaller amps have reasons they sound a little better than their bigger brothers. I lean that way as long as you are NOT anywhere near clipping.Nelson has figured out a way to make this less of an issue if someon... | |
| Mcintosh 601's vs Classe CA-M600's Mike,Haven't compared those exact models you named to my XA's but have heard other amps in those lines and the Pass was much more to my liking.I had a Mac MC2000 (4 KT88's per side) and it put out a lot more heat than my Pass. I would bet your 230... |
