| Buggtussel speakers: a "sleeper" hi- end spker? Maxgain, I am actually speechless! Did my friends from Bellvue reach you yet? | |
| Upsampling / Oversampling DAC Another part of the problem for us perfectionists (nuts?), I suppose, is that for a while we will be stuck with less than high-end equipment (the Sony SCD-1 and 777ES were comparative exceptions, and due to their excellent transport mechanisms wer... | |
| Anyone remember speakers by Kindel Audio? I'll have to check the back issues, I remember the review. Back then, the review might even have had some critical content! | |
| Buggtussel speakers: a "sleeper" hi- end spker? Just leave a place for me on the fancy eatin' table, OK? | |
| Anyone remember speakers by Kindel Audio? I remember them, but only through a Stereophile review of what I guess were the Phantoms. Same with the Robertson amp you referred to in a prior thread. Those were the days of the Stu Hegemanns (he was from where I live, by the way, though I don't... | |
| Buggtussel speakers: a "sleeper" hi- end spker? Alright Maxgain, I'm impressed. Now prove your worth on the thread about the ultimate high end speaker from yesterday! I threw down the gauntlet with some awful puns there, I think it's made for you! | |
| Replacing TT with CD cfb, i'm a little confused too, as if anything my WTT (original) was rather lightweight, and it certainly beat any CDP of the time (early 90s) in terms of involvement. The lightweight sound was why I sold it and got my Basis. Maybe a function of t... | |
| How long do you keep a component? I tend to hang on to things for a while--I had my Duntech Princesses 11 years, and my Sforzandos for the last 4, and I've had my JA 80s for 11, my JP80, my Basis and Graham and my Day-Sequerra for 9 and my Forsell/Audio Logic combo for 8. I do cha... | |
| Upsampling / Oversampling DAC As much as I am a supporter of SACD, I don't mind in the least if a 32 (or 24) bit standard takes over--all of them are or would be better than 16 bit redbook CD. The problem is convincing the masses to accept something other than CDs, which these... | |
| Replacing TT with CD Well-Tempered Turntable & arm, I'd guess. What is it about the turntable that makes you want to give it up, or is it the desire to get new recordings of current artists? Reason I ask is that usually I'm recommending the Well-Tempered to folks ... | |
| Upsampling / Oversampling DAC Gthrush1--don't expect a DAC any time soon, if ever, for decoding DVD-A, as the discs themselves at this point won't let you pass a digital signal at the higher bit/sampling rate, and SACD decoding will depend on whether an industry standard inter... | |
| Your next state-of-the art speaker s ??? :- Would that make the dog a "Sound Lab"? I'll be here all week, folks.... | |
| Your next state-of-the art speaker s ??? :- Sorry, I'm waiting for the Signature version. Perhaps if we attached it to a stretched piece of Mylar we'd have the equivalent of Martin Logan Statements for less than $100. Could call them the "Under-Statements"! | |
| Live or Recorded; A Faustian response In Schubertmaniac's and my posts we were referring principally to non-professionals whom we care about performing, or at least that's how I'm looking at it. I agree that I wouldn't want to attend performances by professionals who were merely going... | |
| Live or Recorded; A Faustian response Well put, sir! You could add to that my wife's (off-key) singing to the Gilbert & Sullivan Songbook record I got from Sdcampbell--thanks, SD, it's been a lot of fun! |
