| Audiophile Addiction I think a balance between the two poles is a good thing, but it is easy to find yourself out of balance. I realized recently that for the past year and a half I have not been spending enough on music vs. hardware, so I'm changing that. I have to s... | |
| why aren't ribbon tweeters more popular? A lot of speakers have ribbon tweeters these days, it not really uncommon at all. Like any other technology, some people like them and some don't. | |
| Belles 21A feeler The only correct way to find out is to place a classified ad...in the classified area. | |
| Gryphon Mikado Signature CD player I'm still thinking about what Jzach said. It sounded better than the Audio Note DAC 5 (to him). That's pretty impressive, because to many of us, the DAC 5 would be a destination piece. | |
| Thiel 3.7 vs Wilson Sasha Actuary,Did you really mean that you don't think that there is a system that can drive them well, or did you mean that you don't think there isn't a system that can't drive them well?(in other words, you feel that they are easy to drive) | |
| What of your CD's have good sonics? I have found personally that it is hard if not impossible to "have it all." When I had Spendor SP100s, their softer treble and slightly blunted transient attack made a lot of harsh sounding CDs easier on the ears. My current speakers don't do that... | |
| Meridian G-08 or ProAc Response TriTower Upgrade Roor, You could get a reasonably priced DAC for the time being ,and use the PD-65 as a transport.By the way, I bought my PD S-95 for $750.00 here on Audiogon, and I just love it. It is a great performer, and it is just the most elegantly built pie... | |
| Meridian G-08 or ProAc Response TriTower Upgrade I used a PD-65 happily for years. Great player, and mine was stock. Now I use a Pioneer PD-S95 transport and an Audio Note outboard Dac, but I still think that the PD65 was a really musical player. Those ProAcs are really special little towers. I ... | |
| What of your CD's have good sonics? On my system, I find almost everything bearable, with the exception of "Close to the Edge" by Yes, which is the worst CD tranfer I have ever heard. The problem I have is that most CDs are so mediocre sonically, that when I put on something excepti... | |
| DQ-10's They like lots of power, and that could be the problem. | |
| Favorite ProAc Tablette and speaker stand? Leahy,Don't let that discourage you. I know that they can be refoamed, not from personal experience, but from ads where the seller states that they have been refoamed. You could do a search on refoaming and call a few places. I'm sure you'll find ... | |
| Would it be worth upgrading from D2 to Classe 800 Huh? | |
| Favorite ProAc Tablette and speaker stand? I'm familiar with both of them, and although the Tablette is a great little monitor, I think you will be disappointed by the loss of bass extension relative to the Response 2. | |
| Bring on the criticism... If you can afford to do that, why can't you biamp? | |
| Overdue goose bumps Tpreaves,They're not goose bumps, they're douche chills. |
