| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC One thing I realized last night is that I didn't listen to tube amp and tube preamp. I have to go back to the store anyway, and will suggest it. But, to be honest, because of the many hours that I watch film and my family uses it for TV, the ease ... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC What would a purist audiophile do? | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hello,I went to hear the VAC 200 iq system today. It is very beautiful. I think you would all agree it is engaging and warm and in a word gorgeous. However, I also listened to the JR with a tube preamp and I must say it was even better. So, I thin... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC YOU HAVE DONE MORE THAN YOUR BEST. YOU HAVE 'ALL' BEEN AMAZING. I HOPE TO HEAR THE VAC 200 THIS WEEKEND. AND I WILL LET YOU KNOW HOW IT SOUNDS. I CAN'T WAIT. AS JON2020 SAID, 'A MONTH AND NO AMP, NO INTERCONNECTS, NO MUSIC AND NO INSPIRATION' LOL.... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Inna,Thanks, I will take that into consideration. In Canada, the LAMM sells for $30,000++ depending on the deal. And I will not listen to top of the line VAC or I will never buy anything else. LOLAs for the guitarists, I liked both. But I really l... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Thanks! The suggestion is for an interconnect which I don't have. I will keep the Crystal Cables for now. Used is a good way to go. Maybe once I know what amp I am getting we can talk interconnects? Gotta hook the Aeris to the Amp. A short run ove... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Gotcha! R | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Well, used listings for interconnects are a bit daunting, but if you help me de-mystify the field I might be able to pick up something quite decent used.Here are my questions:1.) should i try to find a used Crystal Cable to create a synergy with m... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Thank you jond for looking and sending that listing. My cables are Standard Diamond series which is a bit higher up than the Micro (and thus more costly). If you think that there is synergy in having the same interconnect as speaker cable, I could... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Okay, I listened to both guitarists. And, here is the thing, I liked them both! Yes, at first I was drawn to Conde, but on second hearing I felt equally involved in Montero. In a way, an ideal test would be if they played the same piece. I see the... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC That is an interesting suggestion! I will try the guitars. And get back to you. Thanks!!See, it is clear, cables are very subjective! Also, within the various brands suggested there are different grades. So that is also a question. Also, in terms ... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Excellent advice. I will look into them. Thanks!!! A good place to start. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Yes, I have Crystal 'Diamond' speaker cable and a power cord. I am sorry I don't know exactly what cables (speaker or interconnects) were used. Maybe be 'Transparent'? I don't know but I can ask. I believe the interconnects to the JR were balanced... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Thank you. I will try them for sure. Get used to everything. Maybe down the road try some loaners to see if there is any substantive difference. In the meantime, I will need interconnects. That I don't have! | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Got it. Amp first. Cables later!!!!!!!When that time comes, I might ask you all for suggestions. R |
