| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes Hi-rez digital can sound better than Redbook standard digital. You don't even need an all out assault on the state of the art system to demonstrate that. | |
| Favorite Tribute Albums? Ray Charles does a marvelous "Eleanor Rigby" | |
| Calling all Eggleston owners The Stereophile review says the loudspeaker is sensitive to toe-in, tilt, listening distance and room size. If you don't pay attention to these elements the "hole" can be heard. All loudspeakers have some compromises. Did you have a problem wit... | |
| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations Thank you for your response. No disrespect to the OP, but I couldn't imagine not getting the powered ATCs. It would be comparable to getting the big MBL Radials and not using matching MBL amps. Both are designed as loudspeaker systems. But oth... | |

| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations @lonemountain thank you for participating. Perhaps ATC will pickup my suggestion of an outboard active crossover? I imagine the OP made the best choice for his specific situation. | |
| Solutions for converting vinyl to 256 DSD? Convert to PCM, edit/tag and then convert to DSD. For it to be worth your time and effort you will need a high quality phono setup including phono preamp. A high quality A/D converter starts at MSRP of $1k. Make multiple backups of your digital... | |
| Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ? Of course I do! I like seeing how other people have put together systems and what music they listen to. I've learned much. | |
| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations If a loudspeaker enclosure is a poor environment for an amplifier, then it's an equally poor environment for a loudspeaker crossover. Perhaps ATC should offer outboard line level crossover units so that audiophiles could pick and choose their own... | |
| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations I'm not looking for a generic active vs passive thread. I'm looking for ATC dealers to comment on active vs passive large ATC monitors. I would think that this is an appropriate thread to ask such. The OP directly answered my earlier question o... | |
| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations Perhaps an ATC dealer will comment on the active vs passive versions? | |
| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations Why did you go with the passive version? The active version only use 350 watts per channel, yet they recommend over 1k watts for the passive version. Could someone explain the disparity? Both version have a max output of 117dB. | |

| Help a college student out! Component pairing ideas for Acoustic Energy AE500 Assuming your son is not yet an audiophile, then a WiiM Amp Pro is less than $400. It's a small box that will stream, has extra inputs and a built-in amplifier. It's a good quality product. | |
| Develop a hierarchy for phono playback I would think it depends upon what your goals are. If someone was making an all out assault on the state of the art, then they would spend the majority of money on a turntable. There's a handful of $150k plus turntables, but phono stages seem to... |
