Best Line Conditioner
I have had 4 RSA conditioners and happily sold them all when I heard the Acoustic Revive RTP Ultimate. I use 2 of them now in my system and cannot say enough good things about them. I have been through so many PC's and can't stand what any of them... 
Tag Help
Thanks Swanny. I do have the upgraded version and that works well when ripping however these are already files in WAV on a HD. I do not see any way to use that feature to tag them but maybe I am missing something... 
Sufjan Stevens - All Delighted People EP
Timrhu...I would say I had the same experience with some of the more accessible tracks, John Wayne Gacey Jr or Sears Tower or even Night Zombie's, but some of the 10th grade marching band (his description not mine!) or Zappaesque orchestrations to... 
Sufjan Stevens - All Delighted People EP
From Asthmatic Kitty Records:"The EP, All Delighted People, is built around two different versions of Sufjan’s long-form epic ballad "All Delighted People," a dramatic homage to the Apocalypse, existential ennui, and Paul Simon’s "Sounds of Silenc... 
Acoustic Damping Behind Speakers?
I have some of the same issues in my room and am strongly considering some of Furutech's panels. I would like the Acoustic Revive panels also but they are too expensive and sure seem identical to Furutech's. I have tried many of their products and... 
MIT Cables for Spectral
Congrats on the new system. You chose what I would consider to be the best. My next amps will be DMA 360's if they would ever show up used! I am poised and ready as I missed the last pair. As for the cables, MIT is one of those odd products that a... 
Any insight with the Berkeley Alpha DAC ..??
Congrats Cerrot! Glad to hear you are enjoying the Berkeley as much as I do. One thing I found is that the SB3 as a digital source was ok but moving to the Transporter made a significant difference (thanks Richlane where ever you are!). They are h... 
Any insight with the Berkeley Alpha DAC ..??
I have had the dac for roughly a year and will not be changing my digital source. I have nothing but great things to say about the Alpha dac. I run it direct to my amp and feed it a digital signal via aes3 from a Logitech Transporter (wireless). I... 
Gilmour and Waters Together Again
With all due respect to you guys (really!)....if I was forced to listen to more than a song or 2 from those guys I think I would lose it. Respect for their talent and ability? Oh yes, the utmost. Fan back in the day? Big time fan. Brilliant artist... 
Wilson Sophia 1's vs 2's
Samhar...To me, the 2 is more of what the 1 brings than the "revealing" nature of the WP. I hear Simply a bit more dynamic and focused Sophia sound and like the way you worded it..."musical". I am personally drawn to the WP sound more so than Soph... 
Wilson Sophia 1's vs 2's
So very hard to quantify. The 2's are better in just about every way but they sound very similar. That is a big time personal call on whether it is worth the added cost. I do think the 1's are an absolute incredible value at the current prices. I ... 
Thiel 3.7 vs Wilson Sasha
Never compared the 2 but both speakers I could live with forever. I just wanted to tell Elbroth2 that I lust after his room evrytime I see his name! That is simply a perfect room in every way and I love the lighting in the rest of your home as wel... 
Best Rock Album in 2010
Adam Lambert "For Your Entertainment"Ok, not really. Can't believe you guys like High Violet that much. It's a nice album but certainly no where near the other National stuff. Actually a little boring and I am a big fan. Saw them Monday with The A... 
What is the best Sasha or Maxx3 ?
My room is roughly 14' x 16.5' x 9.5 high. I have WP7 at the moment but am considering Maxx 2's. I just was emailing with Wilson today and they felt Maxx's would be "stellar" in my room so I do not think room size is an issue for you and neither d... 
One Box Player for digital/Sonos
Not 100% what you are looking for but may want to have a look at the Squeezebox Boom.
