| iPod docking station - Belkin vs Wadia vs Arcam Last years RMAF I heard a demo which compared an ipod on an apple docking station to a reasonably good CDP on a nice sounding system (don't remember the components, but a Pathos integrated was involved) and I was surprised at the quality of the do... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mine won't even ship until this coming thursday. I must have chosen the wrong finish!!! (cherry) | |
| JL Audio Fathom 113 Hi Pass Filter I am using a 113 in my main 2 channel system without a high pass filter on the mains with excellent results. Best sub I have ever had, easiest to integrate. I'm sure I don't have it dialed in perfectly, but it got so close on first brush, I've bee... | |
| Analogue to Digital USB unit? Apogee has a very good AD converter with USB. I don't remember the name. I had an Edirol unit mod'd by the Oade Brothers (check their website). Even though they no longer make the mod, they may also have suggestions. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I also ordered a pair, and will report here as well. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? How far off the walls do they need to be? Or more succintly, do they tend to be "near wall" tolerant?I'm thinking of getting a pair for my living room, which is a secondary listening area to my listening room. They would live near walls, unless I ... | |
| fathom f113 vs. 2 velo. dd-10 s I have an f113 and it's the best sub I've ever heard or worked with. So easy to integrate. That said, why not consider 2 f112's? | |
| What If? I like the Quad idea too. Your room is big enough for them, your amps are well suited, and you clearly like a fast sound. I would go for the 989 to get extra bass. I imagine you could place them against the front wall when you'r not using them, wi... | |
| Any B&W 802D/800D alternatives looks and sound? You may want to look into the new Avalon Indras. They image spectacularly. | |
| Maple platform question Check out Michigan Maple Block - great deals there. I got 21x15x3 inch butcher block cutting boards for around $80 each. They appear to be very good quality. | |
| I'm shocked Jgiacalo or others: is it really true that the only model that does the trick is SCHP1001? I would assume that there are many other PS-1's out there. Is it that different?Thanks, Peter | |
| PC Audio Choice: Mac+USB, Transporter, or Squeezbx Does the duet handle high resolution stuff, such as 24/96 or 24/88.2? I hope we will be moving into high rez soon enough, and don't want to miss out on that... | |
| Upgrade for users of 1/2" mylar belt Thanks Doug. I'll check the website for where to get the silver mylar. | |
| fine tuning speaker placement I agree with all the trial and error suggestions above. I need to do the same with my Avalon Indras, which I recently purchased. If you do want to visualize your results though, and have a computer available, consider purchasing "TrueRTA" on the w... | |
| Shipping speakers to Europe - France: how to? I just shipped a pair of Maggie 20.1's to Sweden for $600. Yes, have them strapped on a pallet. Shipping airport to airport is cheaper than to a home or business. Contact Pilot Air for a quote. |
