| DNM Stereo speaker cables-experiences? I have used a pair of DNM ICs too for about 7 years and they are very good for the money, truly coherent and smooth with refined texture. And they are very light and flexible, so they would absolutely be a great choice for tight physical placement... | |
| Chained Shunyata Triton w/Vray 2 Best to you Jfrech. Had to use my 10 year old 8-foot 20-amp Anaconda Alpha from the closet on the Triton to reach, but somehow it does a fine job. When I save some more change in my loose-change drawer, I may move on to a newer version.I'm lucky I... | |
| Shunyata Triton As I said in my related thread, I'm using the Triton direct now directly into the wall (via an old extra long Shunyata Anaconda 20 amp cord) and it is even more miraculous. Every darn image is locked in place outside the speakers with more texture... | |
| Chained Shunyata Triton w/Vray 2 OK, unchained melody here. 'using the Triton direct now and Jfrech is right. Things are much better even than before. Again, the Triton is AWESOME!! NO KIDDING!Every image is locked in place and outside the speakers.Thanks Jfrech. | |
| B&W 805D stands? Experience? Thank you. Sounds good. Relaxed is good as long as we're not in Harbeth territory (just not enough resolution and character for me as a former owner). | |
| B&W 805D stands? Experience? Do you like your 805Ds? Are they nice and transparent and disappear? Thanks. the what-hi review said they were more about energy than refinement and that they needed to be played at high volumes for the best sound. | |
| Shout Out to Stealth Cables Once I tried Indras and Sakras, I really couldn't go back to anything else. If you buy them used, they hold their value, so they are like a retirement fund. | |
| Shunyata Triton yes, I just need to get to it. The triton is so large it didn't fit where the vray was, so i did this temporarily.I didn't know what to expect but I was really surprised about the improvement, even with the chaining, so I will get to it eventually... | |
| B&W N802: Which amp?? And if you look in their archives, there is a nice review by Wes Phillips in Stereophile from Jan. 1999 (I think) of the N801 with a Krell FPB600 when both were new. I think he used a Meridian 508 cdp. He talks about the live mono Dylan concert re... | |
| B&W N802: Which amp?? OK, this was a L-O-N-G time ago but I was pretty spellbound at Woodbridge Stereo in NJ with their demo of the N802 and a Pass X350 (when the Pass X series was first introduced). | |
| Chained Shunyata Triton w/Vray 2 OK, thanks for that. It's just that I was having surprisingly good results with chaining. I use an Anaconda CX. | |
| Luxman vs. Accuphase I get fine results with my Luxman 507U. Kind of a Goldilocks sound, not too boomy or bright or etched, lots of character, sweet palpable rounded vocals, nice all-there highs that are not painful. Almost on the level of the Pass X350 power amp I on... | |
| Most forgiving high end speaker 10k-20k? Tubes help with harsher recordings I have found. Try tubes (and tube rolling) if you listen to problematic recordings. And the tubes help with great recordings too, even though this seems illogical on the face of it. Tubes really helped Beatles mu... | |
| Sela Tempesta Monitors Thanks. Interesting comments. Sorry I did not spell Selah right in the title. That always happens to me too. You change one thing that causes you to change something else, and on and on. 'keeps the companies busy of course. | |
| Not your everyday bookshelf speaker? I love my LaHave Mela monitors. I have posted about them in the forums here. |
