| Rate these on order of importance: The "synergy of the system" is what most of us are after, anything weak in the chain will deafeat the purpose. I say all in No 1 slot! | |
| Which CD's for Imaging/Soundstage? I cannot agree more on the Making Music album, I have had it since last ten years and is never too far away from the player. Track 1 is an absolute gem in terms of what making music is all about, the listener is forced to believe that he is listen... | |
| Review: Philips Philips DVD-963SA CD Player I appreciate your comments and thank you for reading the review. As for upgrades, I personally do not feel comfortable in making chages where the soldering is required. When I feel the need to upgrade I just get a newer and better player.However, ... | |
| Which CD's for Imaging/Soundstage? I have heard Eva Cassidy a few times as it is one of my frieds favourite CD's, however I just could not relate to her style of music. The sound was very good indeed, excellent vocals and great atmosphere.Another fried has dropped two of the Rollin... | |
| SACD or vinyl? Looking for great sound and mid $$ I am also of the opinion vinyl is still better sounding, besides it will take some time before SACD can catch up as far as availability of albums is concerned. I have seen a long list and only few I personally was interested in getting. There is n... | |
| Review: NAD 3020 Receiver 3020 was later designated 3020i and one more revision of same piece of gear was introduced in 1990 designated as 3225PE which is basically the same thing with Power Envelope circuitry thrown in making it even better (from the point of view of powe... | |
| 13' x 9' room big enough? A friend has a very large room, something like 18 x 30 and he uses 5 watt single ended Cary's to drive his Alon Adriana's coupled with a REL Stantor. Amazing sound I must say for such a large room and such a small amp driving them. The music just ... | |
| 13' x 9' room big enough? Very interesting suggestions, never tried a setup in a small room with subwoofer. What do you guys think about a REL Q 150 or 200, is this the way to go? | |
| 13' x 9' room big enough? IMHO, If I had to build a system for listening in a similar size room I would go for a high quality source, a good tube headphone amp and the most comfortable headphones I could afford to buy. | |
| CD and DVD are history? Really??? I thought TT's were history! Yet, I am enjoying my TT like never before. Looks like the word "Obsolete" has become obsolete. | |
| Which CD's for Imaging/Soundstage? Anyone care to add to this list some of the newer offerings that you may have come across? | |
| Choosing Paradigm reference 40's v 2&3, 60's v 2&3 Gmood1,You switched from speakers 4 times the price, I switched from Maggies to Paradigms. We both seem to like the sound, what does that prove? Someone once said, "Building a no cost speaker to sound good is one thing but building a budget speake... | |
| Choosing Paradigm reference 40's v 2&3, 60's v 2&3 Gmood1,Patricia Barber's CD's sound fantastic with all those notes from the Acoustic Bass which Michael Arnopol plays. I am sure you are familiar with her music.One of the most dynamic recording I heard on these was Keb Mo's Slow Down particularly... | |
| Favorite Movie Soundtrack Doctor Zhivago - Maurice Jarre (I had tears in me eyes when Zhivago's mothers dies and the young Zhivago is attending the funeral with Lara's theme playing in the background on the Yukelele and autumn leaves are falling)Lawrence of Arabia - Mauric... | |
| Choosing Paradigm reference 40's v 2&3, 60's v 2&3 No offence to your choice of equipment but in my opinion whichever speaker you choose you need to do justice to them in terms of amplification. Paradigm's need a good amp to really sing and they do have that potential. I own the Paradigm 40 v2, an... |
