| ???? T.H.E. Show ????????? I think the Las Vegas shows should be limited to industry professionals (and their associates) only. The shows are way overcrowded as it is, and if they start letting eveyone attend it would result in pure kaos. As it is, quite a few "creative" at... | |
| A good 50-70 watts tube amplifier for $ 2000? Newbee, if you think about it, picking the amp first is no more "ass backwards" than picking the speakers first and then limiting yourself to what amps will work with your speaker choice... You have to start with something, so unless you have one ... | |
| PS Audio's Digital Link III DAC That's because it's about 20 years old... It sounded good in its time... | |

| Bob Dylan finally makes sense.... Hdm, you make a good point. I should have known better than to buy that CD compilation. I think the sheer number of great titles must have swayed me. Original vinyl has to be the way to go with Dylan's work. | |
| Bob Dylan finally makes sense.... I bought a Dylan double CD recently, which is a compilation of most of his hits through the years. You want to talk about poor recording quality, then look no further. Most of the Dylan recordings are truly deserving of MP3 formatting and free dow... | |
| Musical Heaven, NOT Audio or Speaker heaven … Bigbucks5, wow, that's great, congrats on your success!I've actually accomplished the same exact thing with my little Aural Ersatz TAD-803 single-driver speakers... Ditto for me, now I can just relax and listen to the music. Good thing for me, as ... | |
| Best $200 speaker cables for overall performance? Speltz Anti-Cables or SignalCable Silver Resolution. Both have excellent bass and should be in your price range. The SR cables are a bit more extended and detailed in the highs and the fit, finish, and ease of use is better than the Speltz in my v... | |
| Sounds like a $5000 Integrated amp but only $1600 I haven't heard it, but I own a Kavent A-210 that I like quite a bit -- it's also from China, so it's probably the same amp with a little different sheet metal and cheaper connecters for only $999.Some of the Chinese electronics sound surprisingly... | |
| Drive one nuts??? The problem probably has more to do with the particular speaker's dispersion characteristics and possibly room reflections than it does with the pinpoint imaging effect.Since the poster didn't say what speakers he owns or what his room is like it ... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 vs. DSP8024 as DAC You see, you'll never achieve great sound because your priorities are all wrong. You should be squirreling away $3000 for stereo upgrades and set aside $500 for the computer... You can buy a pretty good PC for $500 these days, but maybe not a Mac.... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 vs. DSP8024 as DAC I could not get the 8024 to sound good in my system no matter what I did, even with manual tweaking of the controls. I don't remember if I tried it as a DAC, but I think I did. This was about 4 years ago. My main memory was that my system sounded ... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 vs. DSP8024 as DAC I used an 8024 for a while in an InnerSound Eros system for a while and could not get the system to sound good when the 8024 was in it. It was always bright and zingy to my ears. I ended up sending the 8024 back and never regretted it for an insta... | |
| Maggie 20.1 - Bi-Amp vs. More power I'd go with the two powerful monoblocks over the two stereo amps.Then, as someone else said, if you wanted to add a nice tube amp on the mid/rreble later on, you could do that. |
