| I Need An Outboard Balance Control, Do They Exist Maybe someone can speak on this - would it be possible to add a resistor to one channel to balance it out. If so, would the resistor have the same effect at all volume levels? | |
| Monitors and Integrated for $300-$500 The NAD should really be fine. I used it with a pair of Linn Tukans with good success. I actually liked them better than the spendor 3/5's. | |
| Adcom 5300: too aggressive for Epos M 12s? I want to chime in and note that I auditioned the Epos M12.2. speakers last weekend, both with an Odyssee Stratos and a Sony EM amplifier. Those speakers were quite impressive. Warm and full, reasonable imaging, very good for the money. They sound... | |
| NEWBIE: Is JITTER a dance? and CLOCK like a watch? Looking for confirmation: is it true that ripping a CD to a hard drive, and reading off the hard drive into a D/A converter results in much less (or no) jitter? | |
| Why so much???? I don't think Ashra has asked unreasonable questions. If someone collects porcelan figurines and has all of their walls covered with shelves (each holding 100), any of us might think they are a bit crazy. The collector may even admit to that, and ... | |
| Hanging Speakers from the Ceiling... Macrame??? Thanks guys. Great suggestions. I especially like the web link. I'll get in touch with this guy! | |
| How much difference between balanced XLR and RCA Also depends if your living environment has alot of RF noise. Balanced filters all of that out. If you live out in the country, it doesn't matter. If you live in the heart of Manhattan, you may see some benefit. | |
| Rocky Mountain Audio Fest Shameless self promotion! I'll throw one in just to help you out! | |
| $800 Cartridge Shootout and Upgrade Path I've had both the Denon and the Shelter, and I can only say I am much happier with the Shelter. I found it to be more lush and overall enticing than the Denon, which I found to be more analytical and not as smooth textured. Yet I don't miss any of... | |
| Inexpensive Integrated for GMA Europas Tom, that was a wonderfully long and entertaining sentence! So - anyone have any thoughts on this Jolida amp? I've seen generally good reports on it. Also, Roy at GMA speaks highly of a few early '80s vintage integrateds like some Onkyos and Harmo... | |
| Who makes a "true" Transmission Line speaker?... I was very impressed with the Fried TL's at the 2004 CES. Both fast and warm. Good qualities! Wanted to take them home. | |
| Castle Acoustics Inversion Series I auditioned them about 4 years ago. Cool looking speakers with very good build quality. I was comparing them to B&W speakers, 700 or 900 series I think, floor standing speakers that cost around $700 or $900. I was at the beginning of my audio... | |
| Odyssey Stratos, McCormack DNA 225 or Bryston4BST? If you are going for a Stratos, I also suggest you go for the dual mono version or single monoblocks. I have the dual mono version and think it's a great amp with my Harbeth Compact 7 speakers. | |
| Latest Sam Phillips CD outstanding Yes, I also just picked up the new CD and it is excellent. Sonics are good, voice is very clear and pure. I would recommend it. | |
| Halo or Odyssey I replaced a Haffler 220 amp with a Stratos in a friend's system (McIntosh 2200 preamp, B&W Matrix 805 speakers). The difference was remarkable - more detail, more control, more solid bass, better imaging. I guess my experience was different f... |
