| Worst Rock Band Ever !!!! I'd say Oasis. 30 years after the Beatles they still don't know how to make their own music. | |
| Naim Nait 3r or Linn Majik I'd go for the Linn. Although they are both upgradeable the Linn is more flexible, in my point of view. Especially if you want to use components from other brands the Linn has the edge. But finally it's the sound that matters, and that's up to you... | |
| need advise on speaker buying If you like the sound of the B&W 801, but don't have the money, go for the 802's. They sound similar, although with less extension in the low end (but more then enough for me though). Just make sure you listen with your own gear, because the s... | |
| Recommend speakers for Quad 405-2 amp? B&W 602 S2 would make a great match. Spend some money on decent, but not fancy, speakercable, and enjoy. | |
| Are tuners getting worse? Sorry to disagree, but I don't think tuners are getting worse. For me there are four reasons radio seems to sound worse then in the past: 1. Much more RF-pollution (mobile phones are the worst source); 2. Cable: I used to work for a couple of radi... | |
| $1500 Mini System? I'd go for either a Denon DM 10 system: great looks, although a touch bright, gorgeous looking, and pair that with B&W DM 602, or I'd buy a TEAC Reference 300, also gorgeous looking, and partner that with some of the bigger Mission speakers. B... | |
| Turntable Recommendations please. Looking for secondhand? Smart move, but not for a cartridge, because it's hard to see how worn out the needle is. And what kind of cartidge do you want? MM or MC? If I were you, I'd be looking for something like a Linn LP 12, with a matching arm (... | |
| Get a DAC for CD63SE or a new CD? It seems that I'm the only one pointing at a complete new (or secondhand) player. As Dwright already mentioned, there are some problems concerning external DAC's, especially with adequate, but nothing special, digital outputs on your Marantz (I ow... | |
| CD Players- What To Look For? As you might have seen from the other postings, tastes differ. Make s shortlis for yourself what you want form a player: lots of feautures? Digital outputs? Upgradebility? Or do you like home-cinema? If that's the case consider a DVD-player. Anywa... | |
| ANYONE HEARD OF OMNI AUDIO SPEAKERS Uh oh, your friend has been ripped of. These are terrible speakers, with no cross-over, very cheap speakers and no damping foam at all. A German hifi-magazine however has designed a couple of modifications so the speakers (Omni-Audio SA 12.3) will... | |
| A "dumb" question about power ratings? First my compliments to Jazzzman for a very good explanation. Then to the second question: are 30 'good' watts better then 15 'good' watts? In my opinion: no, unless.... The presumption here is made that we want to listen to a soundlevel of 95 db ... | |
| The ultimate system? Cost no object Pre: Mark Levinson No 32, power: Mark Levinson No 33H, speaker: B&W Nautilus 800, CD-transport: Theta Digital Jade, DAC: Theta Digital Casablanca, interconnects: Transparent. Oh, and make sure the room your using the system in is big enough..... |
