The Best Audiophile Earphones headphones and Amp If anyone is looking for great audiophile headphones (at any price), I really love and recommend the Audeze LCD-2 Rev 2 (that's the current version, this Revision 2). I've had LOTS of phones and these really seem like the top ones to me now. Here ... | |
Sonus Faber Cremona vs. Cremona M again, I know Thanks for letting me know this. Now I need to save my pennies for them. | |
Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor "Minimum" Power? I use (as a power amp mainly) a Luxman 507 (110 watts) and it drives them fine, with lots to spare and no strain.A tube preamp really helps a lot, especially with tubes that are mellow up top.A great speaker. A classic imho. | |
Apogee stage manual speaker distance chart They (Stages) were about the easiest speakers to place I ever had.I could never hear the sound coming from the individual speaker or driver. | |
kharma elegance db9 DB7 Yeah, I eventually sold my 3.2s because the highs were just too piercing, but I loved their transparency and the the tonality of rest of the spectrum. They were best on classical where the highs sounded fine, but on popular music the highs were ju... | |
Review: EMM CDSA X-Upgrade CD Player CDSA-X has more controlled and detailed bass than the PD, and also a more controlled lower midrange. The MPS-5 has more easygoing highs. (All of this on redbook).I also have the XDS1 which has more palpability and realistic image texture than eith... | |
Can all headphones handle HIGH Volume levels? Bass freak? get JVC DX1000s. High end and loads of good bass. | |
Gemme Tanto V2- any thoughts? Hi ckoffend, I have a question about the Gemmes as compared to the Wilsons. I also had Watt Puppies (the 6), and I wished they sounded just like they did except for a kind of mechanical vocal, with a hard edge, almost buzz-like, sometimes also app... | |
Is no preamp the best preamp of all? IME, a good tube preamp adds a nice texture that I can't live without. | |
DeVore Silverbacks Oh thanks for that info. I also thought about the Solovox, but that's for another thread. | |
DeVore Silverbacks Would the Devores (Silverbacks) work nearfield where my Harbeth SHL5s sit and work nicely? (Aerial 10Ts and Wilson WP6s also worked nicely in this space in the past.)Room is 20x13 feet with speakers on the long wall.Thanks. I'm just looking for a ... | |
Sound stage, front, middle, or behind your speaker For me, I'm pretty happy if things are just detached from the speakers and I'm not very aware of the drivers. Speakers like Wilsons & Kharmas do some magic tricks with spatial cues, but often with the cost of over-analytical tonality. | |
Power cord with warm treble + very solid bass ? Thanks everyone! I did think about Purist, Lloyd, after once trying their ICs and being amazed by the well defined bass.And thanks to Mr. Tennis for that honest answer that kind of confirmed my suspicions. (Maybe I'm just searching for the mythica... | |
LessLoss DFPC Signature To appdevman: do you find the LessLoss a little less raw in the upper mids than the Shunyata CXs, but is the bass as controlled and detailed? | |
Power cord for tube preamp w/SF Cremona Auditors? Grados are just too raw-sounding for me. These headphones have fine bass (and in fact all sound fine) with some of the other power cords. It's just that the only power cord that works really well with the speakers messes up the bass with the phone... |
