| Your favorite classical composers/works? For me, the high points of Telemanns music are very enjoyable but he wrote huge amounts of "wallpaper" as well. Lately I'm getting into Saint-Saens and Edmund Rubbra. | |
| Your favorite classical composers/works? I have to admit a soft spot for Purcell and Rameau. A more recent composer I like is Valentin Sylvestrov, Ukrainian I think. | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Dgolly, I have to agree with you about the review. It was a little "lite" from an information standpoint. However, the review did tweak my curiosity enough that I will try to hear them. As always I'll make my develop my own opinion. | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Audphile1, your assumption is correct. Not sure exactly WHAT I'd travel to NJ for :<)! | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Minneapolis | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? I see these are scheduled for a review by Chip Stern at 6Moons. As always it will be interesting to hear another perspective. I believe the price has gone from $3700 to $4000, still a good price for outstanding speaker. I'm going to make an effort... | |

| Need help - High-end cabling strategy Completely agree with Mikesinger. You do not know what your system can sound like without decent PCs. I think you will be surprised. | |
| Sunny Cables "Wow" They may be fabulous but I'll never know as I could never pay the price of admission. But then again the extremely well heeled may find them to their liking. They just don't make my cost benefit ratio:<). BTW: When was the last time you saw cab... | |
| Need help - High-end cabling strategy Just my 2 cents here but I would replace all the stock PCs with something decent. Maybe get a great line conditioner like the Power Wing. Then I'd replace the CDP and call it a day. I'd devote the rest of my $$$, if I had any, on music and finding... | |
| What's your dream digital product ? I'd like a great sounding CD player with a built-in tube output stage with a fantastic analog volume control. | |
| How can I start to change the system? Im agree with Swampwalker, a different digital cable would be the easiest and most cost effective way to improve your system. | |
| Gold CDs ...... too much? I thought Creams "Goodbye" sounded pretty nasty too. Tgyeti: I've owned several "Aja" CDs including the gold. So far the best I've heard is the standard Japanese issue with obi. This is not the mini LP version. The first time I heard it I was inpr... |
