| Calling BMC MCCI owners Hi CheersI also have a BMC. When I bought it I had to "sacrifice"my Benz LP-S and sent my Kimber AKG cable to be transformed into a balanced one. I bought a Lyra Titan and I am really happy with it. The rest of the system is composed by a Sota Cos... | |
| Oppo BDP 95 vs BDP 105... I am also hesitating on doing the upgrade. My 95 is hooked up to a Mac MX-121 prepro, both through HDMI and 5.1 analog cables. The difference between connections is not important in my system, both in multichannel audio as well as in video. The 10... | |
| Confusion Hi MikeYes, you can hear hi-res files from your stereo system, given that you plug your usb drive to the oppo (and i think that with the new ones even your computer). The Oppo will do the conversion to analog and send the signal (thru its analog s... | |
| Ideas on speaker like Magnepan but with high WAF I am using Analysis Audio, and they really sounds great. Smaller and more stylish that the 20.7, but as good as them! | |
| Can Tube Amps be Used for Home Theater? Anyway, I checked in Google and Arion Audio is there.. | |
| Can Tube Amps be Used for Home Theater? The HS-500. Contact Mike Kallelis at Analysis Audio USA. He is the designer and manufacturer. | |
| Can Tube Amps be Used for Home Theater? They were about $4,000. Google them. I am using them with planars (Analysis Audio Omega) and leave them always on. I did not open them, but I think they have one 6H30 each. Incredible sound. They are made by the Analysis Audio distributor | |
| Can Tube Amps be Used for Home Theater? I have a pair of Class D hybrid monos, from Arion Audio (500w pc) in my stereo-HT system. Believe it or not, they replaced a BAT VK600SE (a formidable amp). I leave them on all the time and the sound is out of this world. | |
| INTEGRA DHC-80.3 Surround Processor It depends on the importance you gave to multichannel sound. You always can trust on a good pre for stereo, but still you will miss quality in SACDs multichannel, for instance. I have a Mac pre and an Anthem D2V, and both units complement each oth... | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? Partial correction. I just spoke with Oppo and they told me that if the player's HDMI audio output is on and the prepro does not accept a DSD signal, then the player automatically converts DSD to PCM. Therefore, if you do not turn off the hdmi aud... | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? You're right, Kal, I made a mistake. Effectively the Oppo converts the DSD internally and then send an analog signal to its analog outputs. The only thing that could bother you a little is that if your Oppos hdmi audio output is turned on and you... | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? The Oppos provide LPCM only if you are using HDMI audio output. If you want DSD coming from them you need to turn off HDMI audio output and send the signal through the analog multichannel connection (I don't know if in stereo is also the same). No... | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? There are subwoofers like Rythmik or MLogan that accept two simultaneous connections, an LFE from the prepro and a line level from the pre. You will need two outputs from your stereo pre; one for your mains and the other for the sub. There are oth... | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? HiDid anybody hear the new Mcintosh MX121? It is supposed to cost 6k, to come with Audyssey (don't know if the 32 version) and was presented at CES. | |
| Oppo BDP-95 sounds GREAT? I have a Wadia 581i SE and an Oppo 95. I spent most of this weekend doing comparisons between both. I hooked them up to a McIntosh pre C2300 and a BAT VK600 SE, with Analysis Audio Omega speakers, via XLR connections.ALthough I agree with Mike reg... |
