| The best 5 disc CD Changer. From what you described the Sony 333ES is exactly what you want. It has a coaxial digital output which you could connect to your Wadia's digital input. The Sony does not offer a digital output for SACD formatted disc, but your Wadia wouldn't be ab... | |
| Hiss, hum bad for speakers? Are you talking about a clearly audible (loud) hum, or is this something where you have to place your ear close to the speaker to hear? It's a rare system that doesn't produce some of the latter, but the former should be addressed. It's probably n... | |
| rowland concentra Since the introduction of the II, the used price ($3,000 - 3,500) of the original Concentra makes it quite a bargain. The phono board is very good, but not outstanding. I previously had a Pass Ono which I thought was slightly better (primarily les... | |
| Stylus Cleaners: A magnet for Dust? It's possible that the VPI is not correctly setup and is leaving a film of wet mush on the records. The angle and the cleanliness of the pick-up tube are critical. | |
| Tell me if i got it wrong.. Asa, thanks for replying to my questions. To the extent that I fully understand your posts, I still don't see where you've established any connection between solid state equipment and any of your various states of listening. Furthermore, interior ... | |
| Tell me if i got it wrong.. Asa, please help me understand some of your above comments.1. What is musicality as it relates to equipment. Give an example of a accurate, but non- musical piece of equipment. I always thought that if it's accurate, then it also really should be ... | |
| ?Best speakers for a 2000 sq.ft loft? Your M-Ls should work fine as long as you sit in the near field. Place the speakers in the free field (a good thing) and seat yourself near a wall (for bass reinforcement). There's no need to pressurize the entire room. | |
| Tell me if i got it wrong.. I agree with Fatparrot, tube equipment can look wonderful, but otherwise his 10/28 post reinforces a point I made back on 10/25. Simply substitute solid state electronics for Fatparrot's quartz watches.BTW, good music has soul and bad music doesn'... | |
| Can Sony's SCD C333ES play CDR's? The 333ES will play CD-Rs. (I use TDK music disc). However, they have trouble if you try to use the shuffle play feature. Apparently they can't lock onto individual tracks. | |
| Anyone using i tunes as a computer based jukebox? Iamnemo, I'm not familiar with any of the compression programs. HD space is fairly cheap, so I figure why compress. Three questions, have you addressed back up issues, have you tried the A/D converters on the Lynx (what's your opinion) and do you ... | |
| Tell me if i got it wrong.. This tube vs. solid state sound thing is one of the great misunderstandings in high end audio. The tube "magic" doesn't exist. There are no significant sonic differences between well designed amp circuits using either technology. I place a particu... | |
| Would You Pay to Listen? Sugarbrie, there would be no selling of anything other than the right to listen to music. | |
| HELP Who is Herbie Nichols sp ? Mosaic records did a box set. Don't know if it's still available though. | |
| My CD Player is Obsolete Kennyt, a typical CD is 500Mb to 750Mb. To date I have stored 3,977 songs (approximately 300 CDs) which take up 180Gb. An advantage of an external hard disk (particularly the hot swappable firewires) is portability. You could carry your music coll... | |
