| electrocompaniet aw 100 sound quality? http://www.electrocompaniet.no/ | |
| Linn Kairn vs. Kairn Pro linn can tell ya; i tink i have the serial #'s saved on my work compootah, but it will have to wait until tomorrow... if ya *do* listen to phono, the kairn's fono-stage *is* wery nice - the non slimline unit w/built-in fono was superior to the mus... | |
| Linn Kairn vs. Kairn Pro if ya get a kairn, get one w/the latest *slimline* wersion of the brilliant p/s - defineitely better-sounding; i had both versions before going to toobs... the linn will compete w/the wery best out there, except when it comes to soundstage depth -... | |
| Most musical stereo tube amp under 5K.. hi sutts, there's a melos mat-180 adwertised for $1400 here on a-gon. ship it to brant nordlund of melos audio restorations (702.248.6745), & he'll do a standardization mod for $500, or do a circuit mod for an additional $500, & yule be se... | |
| Survey-What is your most used source? hey, musikdok, w/that melos preamp ya got now, i tink yule be quite surprised-n-pleased how decent a cheep cd-player will sound now - my $500 (retail) nad cd-changer gives up nuttin' to cd-players up to $3k retail (at least), when run thru my melo... | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? i shop at autogon, where else? ;~) the buell is my one concession to non-italian transportation (except for my craftsman garden-tractor, which i'd love to upgrade to a fiat/allis!). it's an american-made sport-bike w/a harley engine, but tuned to ... | |
| Survey-What is your most used source? david, if it's gnu-music ya wanna hear, i tink yule be quite disappointed w/the sound of radio - most pop-stations are *wery* compressed; something like a dbx 3bx is *mandatory* w/these stations. and, it's not yust the stations, it's the way the p... | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? hey detlof, if yure a cheepskate w/cars, (like i also am w/stereo!), ya can *still* have some fun! ;~) that's why there currently resides chez-sedon 3 alfas, a pantera, a buell & a ducati - all for about the same price as *one* gnu 5-series bm... | |
| electrocompaniet aw 100 sound quality? danny, which electro pre do ya have? i have an older ec-1a, & while it's certainly a respectable performer, it doesn't hold a candle to my melos in terms of soundstage depth, dynamics & warmth. electrocompaniet has a discussion-line on the... | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? detlof, while i enjoy reading your posts, & for the most part agree w/ewe, by yer analogy to cars, i can tell ewe *aren't* also a motorhead. :>) even tho cars' performance stats *can* be measured, like audio, some do *some* things better, w... | |
| Pass Aleph-3 questions defeating the speaker outs w/the headfone input doesn't necesarily indicate a problem w/output impedence imho - it could yust be a conwenience thing - when yure listening to headfones, it could be assumed that not wanting to disturb others is a po... | |
| Survey-What is your most used source? depends on what kinda listening - serious listening: 50% winyl, 25% cd, 25% tuna. casual listening: 60% tuna, 30% cd, 10% winyl. +/- 25% of course... ;~) doug s. | |
| Pass Aleph-3 questions david, as we've prewiously discussed, both here and *off* a-gon, i tink perhaps rogue's claim of 100 ohms output impedence for their 99 preamp is a bit optomistic. and, yer speeks' efficiency of 92db means that the aleph-3, which should be able to... | |
| Adcom GFT-1A Digital Tuner ? how good? jvia, i *need* an outdoor antenna, cuz i live in a rural area ~60 miles from the stations i listen to, & they're east of me, while i'm towards the bottom of a ~2000' ridge, on the western side! ;~) there's one station i listen to - wpfw, howar... |
