| Plinius SA250 Mk.4 vs. Pass Labs X350 I like Plinius, but look at it this way. The Pass is unquestionably one of the best amps out there in it's price range and holds it's value as well if not better than most of it's competition. You cannot go wrong with the Pass no matter how you sl... | |
| Stereophile's refusal to review more low Well Blkadr, I don't know if you read this entire forum, but I think it's pretty clear what "these people" want. Only time will tell if Stereophile will continue to be successful. | |
| Should Manufacturers Post Prices In Ads I have a feeling that one very important reason for a manufacturer to not show price is because thay want to have the chance to make you interested in their product first. Secondly, for you to go to your nearest dealer and have a listen. Third, to... | |
| I need help with hum If you are using a surge protector/line conditioner with a 3 prong cord, lift the grounds on all of your other components that use a 3 prong cord that happen to be connected to the surge/line unit. If you have already done this and the problem is ... | |
| Whats better Nautilus 802 or 801 I own the 802's. I've A/B'd them and personally, I like the 802 better. It's faster, tighter, and simply more articulate. It is also more forgiving with lowered powered amps, but responds well to the big boys when used. You have to have a huge roo... | |
| Stereophile's refusal to review more low Very well put, Ray. | |
| Stereophile's refusal to review more low True, but what I think the last two comments fail to realize is that the advertising wouldn't be there if not for us. That is, the subscription holders. WE are the targeted group that these advertisements are aimed at, are we not? The strong impli... | |
| Stereophile's refusal to review more low Sounds like payolla to me Ehider. If that is true, I would seriously have to reconsider keeping my subscription. It would seem that they do not have the best intentions for those who keep their business afloat. Oh, by the way, that's you and me. | |
| Are you manufacturer's paying attention? There certainly is truth in what you say, Blbloom. At some point after educating yourself, it can be even more frustrating when you see publications and manufacturers not responding to a growing demand.It's like watching an alcoholic. You know the... | |
| Are you manufacturer's paying attention? Although there are some genuinely good deals to be had on amps here at Audiogon, I think that there are just too many amps selling for more than they are worth on this site. Don't get me wrong- I realize everyone wants to do as well as they can, b... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-l or Meridial 508-2 I'd just like to add as a helpful tip that the prior models will accept the new upsampling upgrade. Considering the prices I've seen on these units here on Audiogon, you could have youself one hell of a player for little money compared to what you... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-l or Meridial 508-2 Currently, I'd have to say the Electrocompaniet. But wait until the revised model is available. It offers upsampling that is incredible and puts it in a league of its own. Highly recommended! | |
| Stereophile's refusal to review more low While I do think there is a bias towards reviewing the "cost no object" products of some manufacturers, I must admit that I do find reviews of lower priced gear as well. Perhaps they run these letters in an attempt to passify those of us who are n... | |
| Talon Speakers I am currently using a pair of Monarchy SE100 Delux amps on a pair of Peregrines. The speakers have only been running for 96 hours straight, but it seems like an excellent match thus far. Between them is a pair of Straight Wire Black Silc speaker ... | |
| Perpetual Technologies P3A DAC Hey Treyhoss. No, I'm not from big "D". I was considering the Assemblage myself. Something to take into consideration about the Assemblage set up is the cost of the upsampler and cables you'll need to link them.I think that puts them ahead in cost... |
