How Important is Dynamic Headroom? One comparision may be the term "bloom" you read so much about in the press nowdays.I think it is something to consider when shopping for amplifiers.IMHO, headroom is very important in good sounding audio equipment. | |
Active speakers with 15" woofers, need a list Do a search for JL audio Fathoms! | |
best used inexpensive cd only player I have just found over the last couple of years if you are not in the 24/96hz (at least) game then you may be left behind.My Atoll preamp has Burr Brown 24/96 dacs in it, and my B&k Ref 30 can hold its own in todays bits wars.I have had a few ... | |
Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green Never heard Green but I have a couple of complaints:No mention of Robert Cray?And not enough about Robert Johnson!I didn't think you could talk about blues without mentioning these fellas!I would cast my vote for BB also (saw him live and it was a... | |
Current Inexpensive sub that can get it done cheap If you can find a Definitive powerfield 12 or 15 it would definately fit the bill.I have had a 12" for about 10 years and I am listening to it as I type this.Built to last, it also sounds very, very good, just not as fast as the Paradigm servos.So... | |
Current Inexpensive sub that can get it done cheap I would second the Paradigm Servos no matter which model.IMHO they are exceptional for the money. | |
best used inexpensive cd only player I would agree with the Rotel , but a CD player is a unitasker as Alton Brown would say.I would go with a good dvd player and have a multitasker, who knows this may turn into a HT/2 Ch system at some point.The Rotel 1093 has been an excellent playe... | |

Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please When I mentioned car audio, I was really thinking about the low impendences (which are similar to car audio), and did not even think of using car amps, but now that you mention it..........The kapppas would sound great with a Phoenix gold 450 or Z... | |
Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please When you are talking about those kind of low ohms, I can't help but think of car audio.The lower the impedence, the more power you can put into it.I am sure they are designed to take the power.I would seriously look at the pro stuff if I was in th... | |
Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please You may want to look at some of the professional gear for the Kappas.Pro amps run 2ohm loads all day long for years, I don't think the Kappas are going to provide a problem.You may be suprised at the sound quality of some of the better amps on the... | |
Cheap Interconnects from Hong Kong Its getting so bad,there are "authentication" services now offered on ebay.Just hit the "US Only" button on all your searches.My worry is they will ship abunch here, and sell them here with a US address.These are very bad times for audiophiles loo... | |
An Informal Assessment of Anti Cables I would have to agree with the cost/performance perspective.I have a 6ft. pair (unterminated), and though I have better that I prefer, these are excellent cables for the money.They really shine on loud hard rock music, a frat house dream cable!Wha... | |
