Fostex based speakers: Cain Abby or Omega Super3R
Over the last weeks I have been listening to the Omega Super 3 some more:After much longer break-in (right now around 300+h) the sound has become a little fuller with a little more authority (as far as small monitor speakers go). Pairing the Super... 
Radio Shack SPL Meter corrections
Rgodin, both corrections are for the analog Radio Shack SPL meter. G_m_c, thanks for bringing up Rives Audio. Does anyone know what corrections the Rives CD uses? Also, I believe with the right corrections the SPL meter would be usable. I am just ... 
A good CD player for about $ 1,500 used?
An Audio Aero Prima can be had for about $1500 used. I listened to Linn Genki, Unison Unico CDP, Rega Planet; the Prima was much nicer than either of these. So far I have not heard a CDP that presents a piano with so much realism. There is a lot o...

New speakers and excessive midrange
Joey, it's a good idea to run in the speakers heavily for a long time. I have now $150+ hours on my Omega Super3's and they did improve a lot past 80 hours. I actually got a Sonic Impact amp break in the speakers. Reverse the polarity on one of th... 
Fostex based speakers: Cain Abby or Omega Super3R
Well, I finally got to listen to both: The Omega Super3 and the Cain Abby. I received the Omega Super 3 (standard version with upgraded flared ports) about 2 weeks ago, broke them in for 150+h with extremely loud music and burn-in CD's (by connect...

Upgrade speaker or analog source?
What do you think the weaknesses of your system are? I can't help you too much on the speaker side since I am not familiar with the proac. As for analog:The Denon it a fairly good cartridge (at least on a friend's turntable) and works pretty well ... 
Fostex based speakers: Cain Abby or Omega Super3R
Miklorsmith - Thanks for the invitation. I am thinking of driving over to Vancouver/Seattle sometime this summer. I'll make sure to contact you and bring some wine/beer along :). Maybe I'll be able to bring the Omega's along, too. 
Fostex based speakers: Cain Abby or Omega Super3R
SGI - I also ordered the standard version with wide baffle, however with the upgraded ports. Louis had these in stock, so that they will arrive already on Friday. As for break-in: I just got a Sonic Impact T-amp, so that I can run the Omega's cont... 
Want to experience tubed CDP?
Jh2os, one thing about the Prima since you are considering it: There are by now several versions out there (and prices that I have seen them sell for here):- There is the the original version with volume control, no upsampling. Glossy front (used ... 
Want to experience tubed CDP?
Jh2os, sorry for the confusion with the Jolida. I completely forgot to mention that the Jolida is an amp. Are you going to explore the area around Las Vegas a bit or are you just trying to increase your funding for your next Hifi purchase? I love ...
