| WP7 to 8? Worth the move? Hi Richard,I owned the 7's for more than a year but have also listened extensively with the 8's at numerous shows and at dealers. The 8's are clearly more refined in the treble and have a less sharp upper midrange, which to me makes a lot of posit... | |
| Best System for Pink Floyd The finest reproduction I have ever experienced of that recording was at Phillips Crest National Studios in Hollywood--one of the largest producers of SACD's world wide. They had an amazing, enormous custom room built in with all the acoustic good... | |
| Review: Running Springs Audio Dmitri AC filter TVAD, I was referring to teajay's use of the term "new" in reference to the v2 Hydra 8 and v2 Hydra V-Ray-- introduced late in 2008. Those were our only revisions and there are no others planned. I simply wanted to clarify that they are not "new" ... | |
| Review: Running Springs Audio Dmitri AC filter Our "new" series of conditioners are not new at all, they are more than a year old and anyone who might care is already aware of them. I was responding to comments here and elsewhere wondering why there was not a direct comparison made. I'll say i... | |
| Review: Running Springs Audio Dmitri AC filter Teajay, Robert Harley's failure to list a comparison is likely due to the fact that he was informed prior to receiving the Dmitry that the Hydra models 8 and V-Ray were undergoing a major revisions. The only rev in more than 8 years of production.... | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints Tbg, I don't believe Acrylic by itself is necessarily bad sounding. All materials have an inherent sound when used as a base, whether Corian, marble, granite, wood or MDF. The component base rack was a step up in their technology and was wider tha... | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints I did complete direct comparison between the original Stillpoints rack and the new component stand rack. The difference between the new one one and the original Stillpoints rack with the Acrylic shelves was profound. Everything related to sound b... | |
| Vivid Audio ??? Karelfd,I do not feel they are too revealing at all. My point was they are on the "revealing and detailed" side of what I might find perfectly neutral and no speaker I have ever heard fits on that pin-head...Put another way, let's say the Vivid na... | |
| Vivid Audio ??? The Vivid Giya's are in a small class of the best speakers I have experienced based on their incendiary dynamic capability--ie, speed, timing, coherence, precision, pitch articulation and gravity-challenging bass response. They have a narrow front... | |
| How to tell version of Shunyata Hydra 8 There is a silver ID tag on the back of all version 2 units that clearly states their iteration. Next best thing is the serial number which will also state v2 or you can call or e-mail in serial id numbers and get an exact report of date of manuf... | |
| Aftermarket power cable for power conditioner? Nemesis, I am not familiar with the conditioner/distributor you mention but in general, for those using non-current limiting power distributors (those that do not limit instantaneous impulse current)-- the power cord running from the box to the wa... | |
| Shunyatas New CX series We do not have the info on the site yet but all of our dealers are aware of the change which is why Vance likely knows. I had posted this earlier but went back to edit and add content and lost the post. The web info is finished but has not been po... | |
