| Monoblocks did not work Nilthepill. I am no techo, but I think bridging ups the wattage but makes the speaker load look twice as difficult. So maybe the sound you are getting is what the Classe would sound like into a 2ohm load - could be, and no doubt someone will corre... | |
| Cables, a case history of an Agnostic Oops!Dekay just told me we had cut you in on the weekend - keep up the good work! | |
| Cables, a case history of an Agnostic Whew!!I was worried we might have to cut you in on the scam for a while there. Fortunately you are now hopelessly hooked and your expectations of better sound from a new cable will keep me and the others of "The Cable Family" in CDs for the rest o... | |
| Tube amps... what is so great about 'em This is a very interesting question. I could simply argue that my tube amps make the music sound more like the real thing than any silly state amp I have heard. But that would verge on rhetoric. I suspect the reason why I perceive my tube amps to ... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Hi Slawney. Your 50 times more expensive cables may well be considerably better because I am damn sure I haven't heard anything at that price. That must be round about New Zealand's GDP??Actually, since my last post the sound went a bit flat for a... | |
| Please, learn from my mistakes The 508 perfect? Fraid I didn't notice that when I had one. | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Welcome to the lunatic fringe Brulee, me ol' mate. | |
| Trivia: 1st Lennon-McCartney song in US? I have always believed it was "I Wanna hold Your Hand", but only through reading the history books - Mezmo's source is an illustration that things are always more complicated than you thought - when you speak to an expert. | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit I'm sold now. I will be brief.The sound is vibrant (perhaps forward) in that instead of images flattened behind the speakers, the room is now full of music. None of this is accompanied by any nasty sounds except those obviously present in the reco... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Sorry Slawney i didn't answer your question. I only have them as ICs and speaker cable at present. | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Kimosabe, the bass has arrived. Still a little rubbery at the very bottom, but strong, powerful, fast and extended - better through the upper bass and mid-bass than either my Siltech or Wireworld. The PRAT is outstanding. The vibrance of the sound... | |
| Jazz Review Hi Ernie. Since you like Jessica - as I do too - you really must try "Jessica's Blues". This is the most enjoyable of all her albums. Fine Jazz styling over a great Blues groove. This CD has more soul than Jessica's other work and the result gets ... | |
| Best acoustical guitar - any type music I just had a listen to "Virtuoso" again (first time in maybe 18 months) - steel string guitar (as opposed to nylon in "I Remember Charlie Parker"), and "Vituoso" is more spectacular playing - breathtaking really. I like both but "Virtuoso" is the ... | |
| Cables that cost more than the speakers? Frap, I agree, but presumably R&D and marketing are a large percentage of overall cost - certainly if you wanted to break into what is a very crowded market. If not, then you or I could re-badge some Belden, slap a $3,000 sticker on it and ret... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Slawney. I happen to agree with your comment about the Coincident cables. They are still very good indeed for the price and I have a friend who is desperately waiting for me to sell mine because he likes them so much (I lent them to him for two we... |
