Sony XA5400ES vs XA9000ES Ozzy you really think the 9000 has terrible redbook qualities? I am shocked anyone thinks that. My friend has one and I like it and of course he does too. Best CD player he has owned and he has owned quite a few. | |
BAT or Cary Pre with BAT VK-55? The BAT VK3ix is a fantastic match for the 55. Stereophile did a review on both. Look it up and decide :) | |
PC for Running Springs conditioner Richard I think were all afflicted...lol ;) | |
PC for Running Springs conditioner I am using a Mongoose with good results. I tried a VH Audio AirSine for awhile and it sounded nice but overall I prefer the Mongoose as a supply cord. I moved the AirSine to the CD player. IMO the Mongoose flows alot of current and is fairly neutr... | |
Tubes vs. solid state. I mainly prefer tubes somewhere in the system. I love what they give to the midrange. With that being said, I am also enjoying my solid state Cayin 265Ai Class A integrated amp right now. It takes about 2.5-3hrs for it to warm up and sound its bes... | |
What's a good power cord for conrad-johnson CT5? It doesn't surprise me that you went back to the Taipan Helix. I really really liked it on my VK5i I used to have. Like you said it just opens up the soundstage. | |
Cary Rocket 88 & n.e.w. P-3: Best tube combo? To my ears go with the P3 Taplina. I owned the P3 for awhile and borrowed a LS7. I liked the P3 much better. It was more transparent and open. I didn't like the LS 7 at all in my system. It was detailed but sounded like a blanket was over my speak... | |
Krell or Plinius? Ozzy I am laughing because I had the CD-LAD a few years ago and kept it too long....lol. I did like the remote :) | |
Peamp/Amp for Thiel 3.7 For sure a Krell amp. Either the FPB series or older KSA "S" series. I have two buddies who have the KSA's and love them for their Thiels. One has the 3.7's and the other the 7.0's. For preamps I would say either a Krell or a BAT. At your budget m... | |
Hi, does anybody own the new tyler acoustics D10's Email Ty and I am sure he can provide some. | |
BAT VK-200 vs VK-220? Yep we did have almost the same system...lol. I sold off my BAT gear last year. I bought Ty's D4's with a sub so I didn't need the power anymore. I have a Cayin 265Ai Class A integrated at 40wpc. This integrated is a sleeper trust me. My CDP is a ... | |
BAT VK-200 vs VK-220? Ihcho which Signature system do you have? Ty custom built my previous speaker (Signature) and it had the 10" SEAS bass driver. Does yours have the 8" driver? I sold mine this past year and went with the new Decade line. Rogue and BAT should go wel... | |
BAT VK-200 vs VK-220? Yep small world ;)I have tried various Levinson amps. 27, 27.5, 29, 331, 331.5. For some reason I came back to the 200 because it is a classic and just sounds good to my ears. It does sound like it puts out more than 100 wpc and overall the sonics... | |
Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000 I think Fishing716 hit the nail on the head IMO. | |
BAT VK-200 vs VK-220? Ihcho I owned the VK-200 twice in about 2 yrs. It was one of my favorite amps. It is 100 wpc and the VK-220 is 125 wpc. I have not owned the 220 but some say it is about the same as the 200 but with more power and finesse. You can't go wrong with ... |
