effect of tubes in cd players >I takes a lot of mods to get transistors to sing IMO<Thanks for helping to make my point.Oz | |
effect of tubes in cd players >There is no reason why a tube design cannot sound a LOT like a decent SS design,<That is if you want your system to sound as though it has a "decent" amplifier. No thanks, not for me. I want my system to sound like it has a "good" tube ampl... | |
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Tboooe,If what you describe is indeed how they sound and not room anomolies, I don't think these are speakers I would want in my system. A home audition would definitely be a must.Oz | |
Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp? If you must have a SS amp, McCormack makes some of the best that I have heard. Very powerful with a nice touch of bloom (just a touch, mind you) in the midrange.Oz | |
Analog experiment I agree with Dan. Why not add another format to your system. I listen to digital and vinyl and enjoy both. More often it is records I turn to, but that's not to say there aren't numerous seedees that I love as well. If you don't spend another penn... | |
What speakers are you guys driving your BAT's with The BAT drives the speakers, not the other way around.......Oz | |
canary audio cd 100 better than bluenote koala? >What i'm not keen on are speaker wires and interconnects. there you'll have to make mea believer<Now how could I have known that? But I did.......Oz | |
canary audio cd 100 better than bluenote koala? >If i can get another 2-3% better resolution/clarity with the Hovlands, I'll feel its worth it.<And just HOW do you think you will determine this 2-3% improvement? Are you serious? 2-3%? Oz | |
Is Digital actually better than Analog? D edwards,You really should get out and listen to a high quality system. You might see what you have been missing while listening to a mediocre one.Oz | |
Nottingham Space Deck 294 Well that's nice to hear. I am on my second Spacedeck(taller platter) with Ace-Space arm and I love it. I would really like to hear the 294, this might be the next upgrade.Oz | |
What dynamic spkr. did you go to from electrostat? Chadlinz,Martin Logans sound threadbare and thin compared to maggies. So what's your point? The only things MLs have going for them is their transparency and speed. If you want a real presentation of music, you have to look elsewhere.Oz | |
Nottingham Space Deck 294 So Jaybo, this table has only been out for a very short while. And you have heard it already?Oz | |
Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen All good suggestions. I agree, it looks like better speakers are in you future. The rest of your system has evolved to the point where this is only a natural progression. IMHO, Vandys are nice and easy to listen to, but boring and bland for the mo... | |
What dynamic spkr. did you go to from electrostat? >but had concerns that the midrange just wouldn't be able to keep up with an electrostat in overall tonal purity.<Electrostats might have "tonal purity", but the midrange is thin and threadbare. I love their see through transparency, but I c... | |
Von Schweikert DB99 vs Consonance M15-thoughts? >forgot to include this in my original post<Forgot to include what? Looks like you forgot it again.Oz |
