| Fully Digital Playback? I just noticed that Arcam came out with an all-in-one cds27 which seems to have every medium covered. Has anybody heard it? | |
| Fully Digital Playback? Mesch, the $2,500 is just for the digital front end portion. I'll be running a pair of monitors and an integrated amp. Used or new doesn't matter. | |
| Suggestions? Tubed linestage pre-amp?? I'd go with a Don Allen preamp. It's the best I've had and beat out many more expensive preamps. I believe his new one is around $1,000. Don't let the price fool you, it is one of the best around. | |
| Amazing ''Overachieving'' products...your pick? Odyssey Lorelei speakers, and any Don Allen product. | |
| don allen gen II pre amp vs. Maple tree 4se Also, post your questions over at audio asylum, you should get quite a bit more responses over there. | |
| don allen gen II pre amp vs. Maple tree 4se Sorry, meant bet against that. | |
| don allen gen II pre amp vs. Maple tree 4se I replaced a First Sound Presence Deluxe with Don's preamp, and a gentleman over at audio asylum replaced a top of the line Hovland. At $800.00 you really aren't taking much of a chance. If you don't like it, you will sell it on Agon very quickly.... | |

| Where to use Isolation devices Thanks Mceljo for the clarification. When I heard the Sort Kones, they were under a very high end Meridian cd player and the top of the line JM Lab Utopia's with some sort of expensive SS monoblocks. There was a lot of resolution and detail, so it... | |
| Pls recommend a tupe pre under 2500 for my system. I cannot recommend the new Don Allen two tube linestage enough! It is the best I have heard, and that is including a First Sound preamp. Dramatic dynamics, air air and more air around the instruments, lots of detail, and tremendous bass with perfe... | |
| Where to use Isolation devices Some good responses, thanks. The latest isolation device I was able to try recently was the Nordost Sort Kones. The shop I went to said that he would be money on the fact that I could hear the difference between a cd player without anything, and t... | |
| Best preamp for 2k-3k Don Allen has a new two tube preamp that is spectacular. It is actually the best I have heard..fantastic dynamics, very natural and balanced sound without any sterility, the bass is spectacular, and the midrange is perfect. All for $850.00! I have... | |
| Best U.S.A. speakers? Chapman Audio on Vashon Island in Washington state makes some killer speakers, one man show. | |
| Amp for Amphion Argon 2 ?? I heard these speakers with a T+A integrated years ago, I thought it was fantastic. | |
| Jadis musical value? Isn't it assumed that when one gives in opinion, it is theirs? Especially when they are not quoting someone else. |
