| Krell KAV-400xi or Bryston B100 SST ? I own the B100SST and have owned the 400xi - to my ears the Bryston was superior. And not by a small margin. Not that the 400xi is bad, but the Bryston sounded cleaner, punchier, took control of the lower frequencies in a way the Krell couldn't. T... | |
| No nonsense Power Strip I've owned Noistrapper powerstrips since the early 90's and they have served me well. | |
| Bryston serial codes-how do you get date? I have only ever seen 4 digits on a Bryston date code, have owned several amps and preamps from the ST series through the current version SST series. | |
| StepUp & StepDown Votlage Transformers? I;m pretty sure the Brystons have to be sent back to the factory for retapping but I will reconfirm. I understand its a simple 5 minute procedure, but I am no electrical engineer! Will check with Sim Audio & Jeff Rowland about the change in vo... | |
| StepUp & StepDown Votlage Transformers? I may be moving to Europe for a couple of years .... debating whether I should get my equipment re-tapped for 200-240VAC or use a step down. Digital front ends and pre-amps don't pull a lot of current but its my power amplifiers & integrateds ... | |
| Most musical S.S. Amp under 2k used ? I would definitely add the Sim W-5 to your list. Near top of the class build quality, powerful, tight bass, detailed yet smooth. I own both the regular version and a LE version. The LE version sounds quite a bit better, btw. Haven't heard anything... | |
| Bryston serial codes-how do you get date? Look at the date code for the date of manufacture. If the date code reads 0601, that means week 01 of the year 2006. | |
| VINCE YOUNG On hi def? I have never see anything close to it in all my years of following college football, he single handedly demolished USC. Watch out NFL, here comes Vince! Of course I may be a bit biased, I did go to Texas ;-) | |
| Meridan 562V vs. 562V2 vs. 562V3 Interesting site, lots of good information. Had no idea there were this many Meridian groupies ;-) | |
| Who Has The Best service department I'm surprised no one has mentioned Bryston yet. Great products, superlative service. Its truly amazing how they have maintained their service levels despite growing so big. Don't be suprised if James Tanner personally answers any technical questio... | |
| French Female Vocalist Jazz Blues Suggestions ??? Madeline Peyroux ..... as several other above have recommended above. Sultry, sexy, & bluesy.I'm actually listening to her right now ;-) | |
| Bryston B60 vrs Sim Audio I-3 I had both units (recently sold my I3 here on Audiogon, currently own a B60R and an I5 LE) and I prefer both the I3 and I5 over the B60R. No doubt the B60R gives you great sound at a great value but the I3 and the I5 take the dynamics & clarit... | |
| Opinions on Revel Performa F32? I heard a new pair of these a few months ago and was unimpressed - the sound was harsh and listener fatigue set in very quickly. Had to turn the volume down at one point. However bass reproduction was very good, deeper and tighter than the F30s - ... | |
| new Classe Delta line Interesting pictures, cosmetics appear to be an improvement over the current look but what is up with the LCD screens?? A sign of things to come perhaps. I spoke to Classe a while ago and was told that the new line would cost substantially more - ... |
