| Review: VooDoo Cable LLC Black Dragon II Power cord Reading this review made me try the Black Diamond Dragon Powercord. It is shipping tomorrow. | |
| WHAT ABOUT CLOCKS? Clocks are only good if the internal clock is bad. Sometimes you will not hear a difference as in the case of the k-01 and K-03. Your money would be well spent else where.Clocks for pro use are used to tie in several digital units. The Clocks in t... | |
| How much better is Esoteric K-03 vs K-05? K-03 is wonderful. Musical as all get out. Forget the CD bashing the major mags are doing to drive their followers away fro CD's. This unit makes your cd collection sound better than you ever thought they could. | |
| Esoteric K-03 or K-01 2100 hours to break-in at 24 hours a day, Christ I never listen that much to my system in years. 700 hours for it to sound right for each filter setting. We must buy this then based on faith that we will like the final sound at $11,000 to $19,000 ... | |
| Crystal Clear Cables Miketuason. Thinking about the Magnum Opus XLR interconnects. I see he makes diffrent ones with different connectors, Cardas and others. Can you share your impression of the interconnects, break in time, and what is the best cable you owned and ho... | |
| Crystal Clear Cables Received my Magnum Opus speakers cables. In a word excellent. Sweet sounding, the bottom end is deep and tight and the midrange is clear, open with great body, the most important area the mid bass is there in great detail and definition. About the... | |
| Crystal Clear Cables I've just order the Magnum Opus Speaker cable. They look so well made and the feedback was very good by owners. Mel said 2 weeks to make them, so the wait begins. Will use between my McIntosh MC402 and my new built Quads ESL 63's. Electrostatic So... | |
| Cables more hype than value? Talk to many designers of gear and they all will tell you don't spend a lot on cables. Nuff said. Does that mean you should not if you choose to and you enjoy the sound a certain cable will produce, no, this is a hobby and if you want to hear how ... | |
| Mythologies on MoFi - Something wrong? ? You can EQ any remaster disc, vinyl or CD, or down load and make it sound different, in the end it is what you like. All sound quality gets back to this basic, and no one holds the best all the time. I've been very disappoint in the SACD of Nat Ki... | |
| New preamp experience It is all mix and match, and what your ear likes. If you like you are hearing then keep it, does not make the other preamp lesser, just with these amps you like what your hearing better, switch amps then you might like your current preamp better. ... | |
| Remastered White Album on vinyl Folks there is no right or wrong, each system and certain pressing could sound better. Beatles stuff was bright sounding at times so should the new pressing be more musical? I guess they could with today's advance in production compared to 1962-19... | |
| Compare the new Beatles vinyl to early pressings When you start comparing pressing a lot of factors including personal tastes go into which you may like better. For me the Best of the British Blue box collection of their LP's. MoFi was expensive at not nearly as good and eq differently. The new ... | |
| Muddy Waters Folk Singer Any vinyl recording at 45 RPM will sound much better than the 33-1/3 version. The CD version is out of absolute phase so depending on ones system I would suggest switching the phase and listening for the huge improvement for this recording. Sounds... | |
| New reference Marantz compared to McIntosh I have owned both. The Marantz Reference Gear is world class and as musical as McIntosh. So really you cannot go wrong. I just replaced my McIntosh C2300 tube preamp with the Marantz SC-7S2 preamp and I am very happy, no loss of what the C2300 did... | |
