| Sony SCD-1 mod Like Calloway, I have both the VSE and the Kern mods in my SCD-1 and IMHO the VSE is superior. | |
| VT-100 MkII matches best with what preamp? HELP First off, you have great synergy with ProAc and the ARC VT100 MKII. I have been a ProAc fan for years and have used a VT100MKII with 4 different pairs of the ProAc Response series speakers including the Response 3.8 and now the D80. I would agree... | |
| H20 impedance question Yes, its 8000 ohms. See H20 spec sheet on their website:http://www.iceh2oaudio.com/model-s250-silver.html | |
| Acoustic Reality vs. NuForce While I haven't heard the NuForce, eAR 501's, or Rowlands I auditioned and bought an H20 amp which bettered my Audio Research VT100 MKII tube amp. I found that the H20 was more transparent than the VT100, with a smooth upper end, and a magical mid... | |
| What is a good combination for Proac Res 2.5? I have a pair of ProAc D80s which I had been using with an Audio Research VT-100 MKII which sounded very good and quite a good match. I had used this same amp with my previous ProAcs including a Response 3.5 and then Response 3.8 also with great r... | |
| How would you describe your class D amp's sound? I have had the same tubed amp (ARC VT100 MKII) that Woodburger has but when I auditioned the H20 in my system it sounded better than my VT100 with a more harmonically rich midrange---something I found hard to believe with a non-tubed amplifier. I ... | |
| New H20 Signature S250 I share your feelings exactly regarding the sound of the H20. My sig stereo250 has replaced my tubed amp. There is simply no going back. The sound of this little amp is truly addicting into my ProAc sprakers. Before theH20, I was never able to lis... | |
| Preamp for H20 Signature S250 The ARC Reference 2 tube preamp is a good match for H20 Stereo Signature in my system. | |
| H2O Signature Stereo vs H20 Signature Mono Amps Barrelchief,I recently purchased the Sig S250 for $2800. I asked Henry about the sonic comparisions between the Sig S250 and the Sig mono 250. Henry told me that the Sig S250 sound almost as good as the regular M250s but that the Sig Monos sound b... | |
| New H20 Signature S250 LLoydf, my comments above regarding my impression of the H20 signature were based on using an Audio Research Reference II tubed preamp. | |
| New H20 Signature S250 I recently auditioned the Signature Stereo H20 in my system and liked it so much that I put an order in for one. Like Woodburger, I have an Audio Research VT100 MKII amp. I did not hear any of the problems that Woodburger reported in his system bu... | |
| ARC 100.2 Enough power for Proac 3.8 I ran a pair of ProAc 3.8s with the VT-100 MKII for 5 years. A great combination which makes wonderful sound. More than enough power too. At one time I did try a 100.2 but found it very uninvolving and sterile compared to the VT-100 with the 3.8. ... | |
| Moving from ProAc's to....... I understand your dilema but my guess is that if you like the ProAc sound, you won't be disappointed with an upgrade to a larger ProAc such as the D25 or D38. I've owned 4 pairs of ProAc speakers over the years and have found that they all share a... | |
| ProAc D25 placement I have ProAc D80s which are about 2&1/2 feet from the back wall. They are spiked through an Oriental carpet to a suspended wood floor. I find the bass not to be boomy at all. Infact it is quite tight and articulate with good definition. | |
| Melos Audio Restoration going strong... Melosaudiorestore(Willard)UNRESOLVED MELOS AUDIO DISPUTE:My Melos Music Director preamp (last revision of the 333) was sent to MAR for repair of a faulty volume control in October 2000. Rather that repairing my Music Director, MAR switched my my p... |
