| Integrated with Phono Stage under $10K I can't tell you all how grateful I am for the options and education. Just so darned hard to make decisions when you can't hear most of these without buying. Lots of research to do...(I'm feeling totally seduced by the Luxman SQ-38u - and I haven'... | |
| Integrated with Phono Stage under $10K Ooh, the Luxman is sexy in an old school way - worth considering. Thanks for the multiple recommendations, John, I'll investigate.Cary, I'm trying to focus on reducing components and getting a smaller footprint. I'd love nothing more than to have ... | |
| Integrated with Phono Stage under $10K Why have I received only private responses to this thread? Curious. | |
| tube amp for ProAc Response.. need suggestions Manley equipment sounds great with ProAc as well. I used a Stingray integrated for years with my Response 1SCs and the mating was wonderful. You'll also spend less than Audio Research. A used Stingray will run you just over $1,000 (sold mine recen... | |
| Need help finding atypical integrated amp We seem to be on a similar journey, though I'm just beginning to look for an integrated with phono stage.For the Bryson, the phono and digital are modular addition options. See here: Bryson infoAlas, it will run you ~$4,000+ new. There is also, o... | |
| Why power cable effect overall syste sound? This is why I'm trying to take my system off the grid. If the functional nature of all components is DC in nature, why introduce AC and all it's problems in the first place? Thanks especially to Samuel for some of the enlightening explanations. I ... | |
| Top of the line old technology VS Newer technology I agree with most of the comments, you aren't really going to do much better than you have on CD performance. If you intend to stay with CD, then I wouldn't worry too much about missing out on anything because you probably aren't.However, if you a... | |
| Pandora vs. Pandora One. Any audible difference? Ghosthouse - the more things you give thumbs up, the wider the variety you will get. The more thumbs down you give (or no feedback) the narrower it will get. That is the essence of the Pandora approach - finding songs that are "similar to" what yo... | |
| is Cullen Mod beyond my systems and my ability? The short answer is yes, your system is good enough that cleaning up the jitter from your source will make a difference. I would qualify that with a comment, though.Doing this would then make your DAC the weakest part of your system (in my opinion... | |
| which output from SONOS to outboard DAC? Mike, try hooking up a different source to your PWD to see if it is truly what introduced the brightness to your system or if it is simply the Sonos unfiltered that you are noticing. The stock Sonos has a lot of hash to it that can come across as ... | |
| battery powered with 'vivid' sound Rottenclam; you can indeed disconnect and take a battery amp like the RWA with you. The lit that tells you to leave it plugged in is should probably be clearer and let you know "you can unplug it if you like, but you don't have to and it is still ... | |
| which output from SONOS to outboard DAC? I'm using the PWD with my moded sonos as a stop gap as well. Not as good as using the PWT or a high end CD player, but almost as good and way more convenient. I'm hoping PS Audio takes a page out of the Sonos playbook and builds a good iPhone/iTou... | |
| which output from SONOS to outboard DAC? neither are stupendous on the stock unit, but most feel the coax is best. I felt the Toslink gave a bit mellower tone if you are into that while the coax was a little more detailed.If you have a few bucks to spend, consider one of the modification... | |
| PS Audio DLIII w/ Cullen level 4 vs Transporter I had a DL3 with level 3 mod (same as level 4 minus the phase balance on the SPDiff - which was handled by my Cullen moded Sonos). The basic nature of the sound signatures are that the Transport is going to be on the traditional refined sound whil... | |
| has anyone tried PS Audio perfect wave duo This is a good discussion and I think we do need to start setting some reasonable expectations in the community. The PW technology is a 'next gen' approach that is highly convenient and likely represents where a majority of manufacturers are headi... |
