| Plasma owners any problems?? My friend's first generation JVC plasma broke down recently, one strip of bad pixels developed over time and has grown considerably larger since. Just imagine someone put a 2" tape on the screen, but lucky it's outside the 4:3 screen and only visi... | |
| Sonus Faber V's Sonus Faber Not sure if I can agree with some of the claims above. I have owned almost every single higher end Sonus Faber made except the Stradivarius. After owning Amati for a while, Extrema, though very nice overall, just can't quite compete. The higher ef... | |
| What Is Best Monoblocks For Around $10,000 Used? Karmapolice,Before you have a chance to hear the new Pass X.5 series side by side with your Lamm, I don't think it's wise to claim what you claimed. From my reading, I don't think you have done so. | |
| What Is Best Monoblocks For Around $10,000 Used? I am sure a lot of people will disagree with Karmapolice. Calling Pass a Ford is like calling M-B or BMW an econobox.But maybe Karmapolice is referring to Lamm's reliability when he uses Jaguar as an example.I have heard both Lamm and Pass, I will... | |
| Phono cable, are they really different? Agaffer,You read most of my mind. I was wondering what made a phono cable unique other than EMI/RFI rejection ratio. Take digital cable for example, it is designed with different impedance all together.As for sound difference, I was interested in ... | |
| Phono cable, are they really different? Well, I just got words from Pure Note this morning my Cerulean, a great cable by the way, is not designed for phono application. My table is not here yet, so I can't experiment with my Audience or Pure Note.Like Rello suggested, AQ with DBS should... | |
| Any info on new Sonus Faber Amati Anniversario? Kops,This I can share. I have gone thru several power amps (Pass Labs, Accuphase, ARC, Sonic Frontiers, BAT VK-150, and some others can't remember right now) and BAT VK-75SE (or VK-150SE) really brings out the soul of Amati.I had some reservation ... | |
| Phono cable, are they really different? VPI email me today and state that they do not use Discovery cable in their arm nor their phono cable. This is contrary to what I have read on discussion forum, but maybe VPI switched vendor recently. Or maybe VPI just doesn't want people to buy st... | |
| Any info on new Sonus Faber Amati Anniversario? Glad to hear we can all live in peace.I do agree Alma has better front end than his dealer, I heard the Audio Aero Capitole several times and each time I told myself I should get one someday.I am also well aware Mr. Skanning is the founder of Dyna... | |
| Any info on new Sonus Faber Amati Anniversario? Branimir and Alma, please don't use this thread as the battle ground. We are here to help each other by giving your opinion, not saying who is right or wrong.I am sure everyone will agree sound & look are very personal. I can't comment on the ... | |
| Any info on new Sonus Faber Amati Anniversario? As a former owner of Dynaudio Confidence 5, I know bass speed. C5 is a compounded bass design in a sealed cabinet and produced the fastest bass I have heard from any speakers. I have owned close to 30 pairs of speaker in the past 10 years, I hope ... | |
| Any info on new Sonus Faber Amati Anniversario? I read in a Taiwan audio publication or web site a major designer in Scanspeak left the company to form his own speaker company which will in effect compete with Sonus Faber. As a result, Franco got upset and switched out as many Scanspeak drivers... | |
| I fell victim to a scam I was a victim to a DEALER! They do business both here and on ebay and have negative feedbacks on both sites. They only take check, no credit card! I thought they were a dealer and what could go wrong? I was dead wrong.I had to sue them, but the c... | |
| $10,000 Speaker Recommendations? Foxtrot, Usher is Taiwan based, not China.As an Amati & Cremona owner, I can concur both are excellent choices if you want to stay in the Sonus Faber line. Cremona top end is not as refined as Amati, but that's in relative term and very very r... |
