| Audio Sensibility vs. Signal Cable speaker cable I use Audio Sensibility statement silver interconnect in my system (total cost around $35k). IMO they are very very good. | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? G'luck with finding an audiophile speaker that does rock/hard rock any justice. I know that common wisdom dictates that a good speaker should handle all sorts of music genre, but its rarely the case. Most audiophiles are into jazz/vocal/acoustics/... | |
| Acoustic Zen Crescendo Mk2 or Daedalus Ulysses v2 I had a Daedalus Ulysses which I sold due to space constraint. Now I've a Daedalus Athena. Athena works better in a smaller room and images better. However, Ulysses is definitely more dynamic than Athena. I listen to many genres of rock music that... | |
| AMR DP 777 or LampizatOr Level 5 I had a Lampi L4, G4 and now I've a two box level 7. Lampi dacs are wonderful. I've never heard AMR dac but the person who bought my L4-G4, used to have AMR and Berkeley Alpha 1 and was not entirely happy with them. After he got the L4-G4, he said... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Great thread and some great dacs. But I can't help wondering that the using mac mini is the bottleneck and not doing remotely any justice to these top of the line dacs. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house I share the same opinion regarding passive preamp. However, I think the volume control in Lamp dac is active. I sincerely hope it doesn't have the leaner presentation of passive preamp. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Got my two box level7 last night. Too bad that I can't use it yet as I don't have a speaker. Waiting for Lou to finish the Daedalus Athena. Couple of more weeks I guess.I sold my preamp to fund my recent acquisitions (TRL ST100 amp). I exchanged s... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Someone please buy my L4G4 lamp so that I could move up to a higher level lamp.Anyone heard the big 7 yet? | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Lukasz, Does level 7 down samples everything to 44.1? On redbook material how would you compare the sound of level 6 vs level7? | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Hi Lukasz, Does level 7 down samples high resolution input like level 6 does? I'm not sure if both level 6 and 7 uses the same dac chip. On redbook material how would you compare the sound between level 6 and level 7? | |
| integrated help please I've bought the Peachtree Grand Integrated last week. It requires ~250 hours of breakin. I've only pout ~30 hours so far. I'm using them with a new speakers (Joseph Audio Pulsar) so can't really do a meaningful comparison to my old gears. But I'd ... | |
| CA Azur 840E preamp or Vincent SA-T8 for MC402 ? I've a Vincent SA-T8 that I bought from a fellow audiogoner. This has been upgraded by upgrade company and I use NOS tubes that I got from the original owner. YMMV, but in my system pairing with a PMC AML-1 speaker and W4S Dac-2, vincent sa-t8 bri... | |

Are they on the leaner side of the spectrum or thinner/warmer side?Branislav, Thanks for your response. I'd like to hear your opinion regarding their lower ... | |
| Volent Paragon VL-2 or Monitor Audio Platinum? I'm interested about the VL2. What concerns me is that they are back ported and my listening space is only 17 ft X 12 ft. How much breathing space do they need? Can I get away by placing them 18" away from the side and back walls? I ran into a ger... |
