Build a system for $1000 Admittedly, the digital tuner is throwing me a bit. I am thinking FM & HD & Internet Radio with digital readoutSo, here goes.System #1 @ $670. The Polks are being heavily discounted by Crutchfield. These were a Stereophile favorite for a n... | |
Lets replace my Klipsch La Scala Speakers Am I the only one thinking that your room is way too small for the LaScalas. The speakers are 2 1/2 ft X 2ft X 2ft. Placed side by side the speakers are 1/3 the size of your wall. I would recommend @$1000 or so level, to try a pair of the Zu Au... | |
Magnavox CDC 745 You are looking for a laser & transport for a CD player that was made probably 30 years ago. Not sure how much luck you are going to have.Philips made the original Magnavox CD players. Lots of fans of the Magnavox sound, the DACs were special ... | |
Hate to do this again. Start over. Class d PCC67 -I have been using the CDA 250 from Class D amp for the past year. Worth checking out.https://classdaudio.com/cda-250c-class-d-audio-power-amplifier.htmlRich | |
Zu audio I beg to differ. I have been in the hobby since I was 13 years old, so we are talking 50 years now. Granted I have never owned the true high end, but I haven't owned shabby equipment either. I acquired the ZU Dirty Weekenders a few months back.... | |
KEF Q350 with a Yamaha r-s202 receiver? What do your folks listen to? And what speakers do they have now? Did they ever talk about any equipment they liked in the past?How do they listen now? CDs, radio, streaming, records?Do they listen much to music?I get the receiver is pretty bas... | |
Integrated under 1k (hopefully 500) for Wharfedale Dentons & Snell I use the Outlaw RR2150 with the Dentons in a bedroom system. Nice combination. Granted I don't do most of my listening with this system, but it does sound good and the Outlaw has done well with other Wharfedale speakers that I have had in the p... | |
Audio Technica VM540ML v. N97xe Jico SAS Yes, you will notice the difference. I never quite grew to like the 97XE, I actually preferred the SC35C in the Shure line. The 97XE was a little too closed sounding for me. Rich | |
Audio Technica VM540ML v. N97xe Jico SAS Hi bstat -I have a very similar set-up as yours ... Technics 1200GR (the new 1200 series) with the AT VM540. the Stereophile review pointed me towards this cartridge. Amp is a Rega Brio R, Parasound Zphono preamp, and Omega Compact Alnico monito... | |
What is your experience with the law of diminishing returns ? Clearthink may be onto something. Depends on where you snap the chalkline for diminishing returns. And granted my 'why did I do this' with a $500 upgrade may be chewing gum money to someone else. Then again, I realize that I come from a time wh... | |
Schiit Vidar Outlaw RR2160 @guscaldasIn his original review of the Outlaw 2150 receiver (2006), Mike Fremer noted that the USB port was not all that great. You may wish to check his review in Stereophilehttps://www.stereophile.com/integratedamps/306outlaw/index.htmlRich | |
Recommendation about speakers with limited space behind Port bungs will work to a degree as you are essentially making your speaker a sealed one by plugging the ports.It will sound ok, just not great. Not quite in the 800 euro to 100 euro drop league, but 800 euro to 500 euro wold be closer to what yo... | |
Recommendation about speakers with limited space behind The bookshelf space is about 32 cm deep and 33 cm high. Not a lot of room, that is only 12" x 12"I have lived with speakers on shelves, inside bookcases, on their sides and there are compromises involved. I would aim on sounding good, anything e... |
