Too many boxes In the ceiling of my garage - 4 full systems worth (kids gear as well). Drives the wife nuts when she looks at them but I tell her that they're not in the way and they take up less space than all her "brick-a-brack" throughout the house!!! | |
Bryston 4B SST I echo Dude's opinions having recently owned both the 4B-ST & now the SST version. Not sure about the slam issue as I feel its about the same between the two. The SST definately runs much cooler. With the introduction of the SST I guess the ST... | |

3B SST or 4B SST for N804s? AJ - having owned a variety of Bryston gear over the last 15 years or so I can offer the following as it pertains to the Bryston BP-25:It is an extremely detailed preamp that does nothing to hide the components upstream from it. Brutally revealing... | |
philips sacd 1000 as a redbook player Against my modded 333ES (a "Kerned" Level 1 mod + Superclock) both the redbook and SACD sections are better presented on the Sony - with the SACD section being closer between the two units. While its not too fair a comparison as the Philips has ju... | |

Question for Tyler Acoustic owners. Ran a Bryston 4B-ST with a pair of Taylo Ref Monitors and now have a 4B-SST running a pair of Linbrook monitors - excellent results! Preamp in both cases was a Magnum Rogue 66. | |

philips sacd 1000 as a redbook player KF - while it is known that the SACD 1000 has been discontinued and I believe that the 963SA is the replacement model its not a given that it will sound better. The SACD 1000 may have its limitations (no progressive scan, no digital out to a DAC f... | |
Are sacd mods really worth the money? BW - I am also intruigued with Dan's "absolute truth" tube mods but as they are 2 channel only I guess you one has to decide if one wants to retain multi-channel presentation or not. I am also waiting on Ric Shultz to offer his opinion on where he... | |
Are sacd mods really worth the money? Brainwater - while it has been a while since I visited their website I was under the impression that Ref's top mods involved "silver" transformers and tipped the scales at $2100???As for mods in general after my 333ES was "Kerned" (Level 1 mods an... | |
how good is sacd1000 on red book Poster RandyTsuch has a SW modded 1000 and a search here might provide you with some info. Randy is also a regular over at HD where you might find his impressions. The one thing is (if memory serves me right) is that he sent his new stock unit dir... | |
Mod for Phillips SACD 1000 The only modded unit I know about belongs to RandyTsauch and maybe a search here could provide you with his comments. I believe it was Stan Warren who worked on his unit. Other modders that currently have or will have something for this unit are:R... | |
Cary CD-308T Do a search over at AA under the digital section - inmate (and poster here) Abe Collins had one up against his 306-200 and I believe a non-tubed 308 and well you should read it for yourself. |
