ARC LS 16 MK1 vs. ARC LS25 MKll Changed nothing in my system when I went from mk1 to mk2. This April marks 3 yrs since that horrible mistake. All different components now. Basically that screwed me up big time. But now I finally have recovered and have music again. I could see t... | |
ARC LS 16 MK1 vs. ARC LS25 MKll I went from an LS-25mk1 to the mk2. Then back to a 25mk1. Had a sickening experience with their digital 150.2 amp and cd3 mk2. Swore off ARC for life now. Went as far as to sell the 25 mk1 even though I liked it. Now own the PSE HL-1 hybrid. All t... | |
ARC LS 16 MK1 vs. ARC LS25 MKll Sorry, but I wouldn't own/listen to an LS25 mk2 if it was given to me for free. YMMV | |
Glitch with Wadia 861 I had an 860x dealer loaner. Did the same thing and had the noise too. | |
Does balanced interconnect sound beter than RCA? Some may find my reply strange. In my experience, balanced interconnects as a group lag behind their RCA equivalents. The majority of manufacurers simply solder on an xlr to their current rca terminated model. Balanced circuits send two signals do... | |
Classe CA-400 Vs. BAT VK500/1000, which is better? Well, I gravitate towards soundstaging, imaging, detail and an alive upfront sound. So my vote goes to Classe. I also have a dislike for amps that use "zero-feedback". YMMV | |
classe ca-300 or bryston 4b sst for thiel 2.4 I have owned both the CA-300 and Bryston 4bsst. If you want more bass and less "bright" highs- look at different amps than these two altogether. But, I would first try driving the CA-300 with a different pre-amp than the SF. | |
Anyone have opinion on PSE mkV amps? I just purchased a second hand PSE HL-1 pre. Waiting for Dean to send me an owners manual. My amp is in for service, so I have not listened yet. I'm hoping it outperforms the ARC LS-25mk1 I sold. Rumour has it there will be a Signature upgrade to ... | |
Classic Rock Listener - Help me build my system John,I purchased a Classe CDP-1 new when it came out in 1995. Kept it for 5yrs. Wish I did not sell it. I like the sound of 1990's digital much better than the soft sounding stuff made today.Budrew,I am sorry to say- I just sold a Naim CD5/Flatcap... | |
Classic Rock Listener - Help me build my system Hi Dave,The crossovers in the Sig 3 present a wicked load to the amplifier. I experimented everyway possible with those speakers. The best results are to open up the terminal box on the back. Unscrew the leads at the bass terminal (lower) and conn... | |
Classic Rock Listener - Help me build my system Hi Sean,I am also a frequent rock listener- but have an appetite for high-end electronics. It is not easy to find a full range high-end speaker that can play rock. The Legacys have high power handling capability (high temp voice coils) And they ca... | |
Classic Rock Listener - Help me build my system I have owned a pair of Legacy signature 3's. This speaker has a very warm/sultry midrange. The bass output was always a problem- too much. And the ribbon tweeter has little power to overcome the other drivers. To get these speakers to open up: 1) ... | |
Classe Cam200 or Ca201? Hi,From what I understand- Classe is just going to introduce two new models this year. I am sure you are aware that the entire product line has been discontinued. They have been filling orders from built up inventory.Anyway, about the new amps. I ... | |
Classe Cam200 or Ca201? Interesting, did you own a DR-15 or Model Fifteen. The Model Fifteen is more dynamic-punchier than the DR-15. That little amp has some set of robust balls. Warmer though and not as detailed or as refined. You really can't compare a stereo amp to a... | |
Classe Cam200 or Ca201? Save your money and buy a used model 15. Have Classe service bring it upto spec. |
