| Best PRaT CD Player for $600 or less ?? I cannot believe that no one listed the Rega Planet or the newer 2000 model. Musicality courtesy of Roy Gandy-the PRAT God! Listening to these players just gets your toes tapping. | |
| Hartley speakers--anyone heard/heard of? I did not know that they still manufactured speakers. One of my close friends acquired a pair from an ex-boyfriend of hers years ago and is still using them in her living room. The sound is impressive given the fact that they are over 10 years old... | |
| JM lab Electra 920.1 vs 926 I have not heard the Electra 920's but got blown away by the presentation of the 926's. They sounded very musical to me and the bass response was really great. The dealer had them playing pretty loud and they were crystal clear. I would spend time... | |
| IS CAL DEAD AND GONE??? What Jameswei said is true...I myself, have a dead DX-1 but I am found a place that speciallizes in cal audio and is willing to repair it. I intend to use it in the future after it comes back repaired solely as a a transport. The website is approv... | |
| A possible upgrade to JM Lab Electra 926s-advice? I heard the 926's running with a 50w Audio Refinement Integrated amp as well as their cdp and got blown away. The dealer cranked it to a nice "enveloping" volume and I was truly impressed by these speakers. Really nice soundstage and presentation ... | |
| next upgrade for cdp Thanks for your responses guys. Dr. Joe, I enjoyed reading your post since you own the 777es.My budget is about $650 max(for a dac or 650 plus what I get for my 555es on audiogon if I choose to sell it) so am going to sample the a couple of dacs a... | |
| taming studio 100's Quadophile,I too have heard many praises for the rel saying that it is one of the better subs for music. I also agree that I could not listen to 2-channel music without a sub.I am now waiting to get my tempest preamp by early feb. See if it smooth... | |
| taming studio 100's Quadohphile,Good insight. I am right at the proverbial edge-you know, the point where I do not now if I am enjoying the music or listening to the system way too critically. By the way, how do you like the REL sub? That is my next choice for a sub.... | |
| opinions on audio refinement cd complete Aniwolf,Have not been able to sample the Jolida. Right now the system sounds ok but still waiting on my odyssey tempest preamp. I am using this parasound php-850 and as it is-the sound is very neutral and a bit too digital-especially on classic ro... | |
| taming studio 100's yeah cosmicvoid-am already eyeing some jmlabs electra 926's or some odyssey lorelei's. The only thing that brings me back to sanity is looking at my savings account hehe. | |
| opinions on audio refinement cd complete Thanks for your responses guys. I actually ended up with the sony 555es SACD player since I got it brand new for a steal 3 months back. I think I have my sights on a cary 303/100-200 or their 308 next. You know, damn ugrade-itis bug. But am going ... | |
| taming studio 100's Thanks again for all the responses. Turns out that my dealer gave me the wrong bi-wire speaker cable. It was a high crossover for a two-way speaker. That is why I had very shrill treble and no bass. They sound really good right now and am finally ... | |
| taming studio 100's Thanks for the posts.I am currently using AQ Copperhead for amp to preamp. Using Phoenix Gold IC's to a Sony 555es SACD Player. Forgot to mention that I have big picture windows stretching all across the rear of the speakers that start after about... | |
| opinions on audio refinement cd complete Thanks for taking the time to respond. I listened to the complete with the matching integrated and JM Labs Electra 926's and really liked it. The two pieces work very well and as you said it is a killer 2k combo. Of course, the electra's were awso... | |
| Great Rock & Roll speakers? oh, just one more thing based on what I experienced. I listened the the studio 60's way back when I was looking for speakers. They were nice up top and all, but had no bass at my regular audio salon. I listened to the 80's in another room and they... |
