| Karan amp experiences wanted Thanks Chuck, Columbus (insert your go buckeye comments here...). Maybe a road trip is in order but those are far. I get to Chicago now and then but I will have to ditch the wife for some serious listening. | |
| Karan amp experiences wanted Thanks for the input so far. These are all difficult amps to get a handle on as auditions are near impossible in Ohio. I have not listened to Burmester or Accuphase (which all I have seen are pretty low powered). I am also unable to afford the lar... | |
| connect laptop to main system agree with cruz and if you can spare a few extra bucks, the duet is a great option. this will give you a remote with a screen that shows cover art and menu to navigate. the squeezeboxes are fantastic devices. | |
| Used Processor for Cheap as Dirt Magnepan Theatre i would look at the theta's out there, specifically the casanova's are dirt cheap. not sure about your interest in component video as most of the tv signals will be passed through any processing as will any signals processed in a player. you will ... | |
| How good of a DAC is the Logitech Transporter audiogalore-thanks much for the post. i have been very curious about how the transporters dac compared with the usual suspects, bel canto dac3, benchmark, etc. from the ears/systems of others. from what i have read, it is pretty close and just bec... | |
| External DAC and Theta Casablanca II thanks for the update raks. you guys are pushing me to finally let go of my old casanova and dive into a casablanca. it is really holding me back. | |
| Does the WATT/Puppy 8 image as well as the 7? this is a very interesting discussion and one that supports my belief that the watt puppy is the benchmark. it seems to be what every speaker is compared to and many mirror in technical and physical design. wilson simply builds the best speaker in... | |
| DACs with volume control ? logitech transporter which is also a wireless music streamer, some of the dacs pacific valve sells (too many to list) have volume and other preamp functions too...many many options out there. | |
| Thinking about Laptop system - Newbie Questions welcome to the fun! i agree with 2chnlben, you will love it! also agree with his setting suggestions for the duet. as i posted earlier, i use a different ripping source and file form but either way you sill be fine. it comes down to what you are c... | |
| External DAC and Theta Casablanca II i find no way to do it with the caasanova. the way i understand, the only way to get a true analog direct process with the cbiii is using the six shooter which would pretty much create a world class line stage that also is capable of multi channel. | |
| Thinking about Laptop system - Newbie Questions thanks ckoffend. we have smilar taste. i use a krell fpb600c and wp7's. my front is much more humble as i have not gotten around to moving up. i still use my old theta casanova as a prepro and run my duet to a digital in. the system doubles as a t... | |
| External DAC and Theta Casablanca II yes, the analog direct, matrix features. correct, it was the entry level version which theta abandoned. i have a love hate with theta as a result. so much for open architecture! i will take a run back through the manual but i thought i had a prett... | |
| External DAC and Theta Casablanca II stick-hello again...do you know if those features are on the casanova? i hae not seen them so i doubt it but i could have missed them. thanks! | |
| Thinking about Laptop system - Newbie Questions ckoffend-how does the duet sound through the dcs vs the transport through the dcs stack? | |
| Thinking about Laptop system - Newbie Questions listenable is subjective. it is not a very good dac and i think most on this site would not find it listenable. the transporter is an all in one solution that includes a fine dac and clocking mechanism. there has been some threads here recently th... |
