| 'best' CD changer out there? Check out the Rotel RCC-1055. Very good changer with detach. PC, higher end power supply, nice sonics, and great remote. | |
| recommend a good computer and digital camera? Check out Velocity Micro for your computer (www.velocitymicro.com). Their stuff is very nice, cutting edge, and high quality. I have one of their notebooks and it's best made notebook I've ever seen. I've also heard/read that Voodoo computers are ... | |
| Replace Cary 303/200 with what? The Arye is very good, although I thought it ran slow, or rather not as quick or dynamic as the Cary 306/200. Not completely satisfied with the 306, I decided to audition a Resolution Audio Opus 21. Excellent player -- I suggest you do some resear... | |
| Ultimate DVD player... The Ayre machine is supposed to be very good. | |
| Small and satisfying. Please help me. I know you're looking for thoughts on speakers (by the way, I think the Bose setup is just fine for a bedroom HT)but I thought I'd pass along some information on TV's since it seems you may not have purchased your plasma quite yet. From what I've ... | |
| CD/preamp or CD and stand alone preamp A lot of people go back and forth with this issue...and there's been a butt-load of posts. From what I've read, true audiophiles would never go without a hi-quality preamp as going without one sacrifices sound. However, I've read posts where peole... | |
| Best overall Speakers for $2,500.00 or less, New? Listen to your friends. Go with the Paradigm Reference 100's, 80,s, 60's, or the 40's. You can't go wrong with these speakers. | |
| Very Best Cd Changer to drive outboard DAC? I've used the new Rotel RCC-1055 as a transport fed into my Resolution Audio Opus 21 DAC. The Rotel is well built, looks good, and has a detachable power cord. It's almost impossible to discern the difference in sound playing discs on the Rotel vs... | |
| Best stand mounted monitors I gotta recommend active speakers. For price to performance ratio, there's nothing that touches them. I haven't heard the ATC's, although I've heard wonderful things about them. If you can find a decent pair of Paradigm Active 20's or 40's, that w... | |
| Good sounding carrousel cd player?? Yep, I agree with the 2 guys above me. I compared the CL-10 to the Rotel RCC-1055 I posted about previously. The CL-10 is better made, has a smoother carousel mechanism, and sounds better, although, the disply on the CL-10 is antiquated. And, the ... | |
| Good sounding carrousel cd player?? I'm suprised nobody has mentioned the new Rotel 5 disc changer, RCC-1055. It has an improved power system, detachable power cord, Burr Brown DAC chip, and a great remote. I run it through my Resolution Audio Opus 21, but it sounds great all by its... | |
| Where does your user name come from? "Sammie" In memory of my dead cat. | |
| High End Audio Equipment, Status Symbol? I agree completely with Ksales---This isn't about status. It's about great sounding music. It is definately fun to get new gear, but only in so far as its ability to improve sound. Very few people see my system, and would likely be unimpressed by ... | |
| Music Fidelity/Nu Vista 3D or Resolution /Opus 21 I have to agree StreetD and Budrew. The Opus is a fantantic sounding player. I've also owned the Ayre CX-7 and the Cary 306/200. IMO the Opus is better. Also, I run the player straight to amps, which I know you cannot do with the MF. And, the Opus... | |
| PS Audio P 500 Power Plant Yep, I used it briefly in my system, and felt like it really enhanced the sound of whatever was playing. It has quite a few programmable modes. I liked the auto multi-wave feature, which picked the best multiwave program for the particular power n... |
