| stupid sacd question Your Sacd player will not need to down mix anything, all multichannel sacd's also have a two-channel sacd mix. Set your player's default to two channel in it's set-up menu.Dave | |
| Caliper Signature vs Duetta Signature? GullahislandMy room is only a couple of feet smaller each way than yours but with 8' ceilings. The Duetta Signatures really show what they can do in large rooms. At 5' out from the front wall and over 8' from any side walls my bass responce only b... | |
| Caliper Signature vs Duetta Signature? Depending on the size of your room, the Caliper Sigs may be all you will need. The Duetta Sigs will have better bass responce in larger rooms. I own Centaur Minor and Duetta Signatures.Dave | |
| Which Passive Preamp --Bent Audio or Placette ? Both great passives, the Placett is along the lines your Pass pre-amp..highly detailed in sound. The Bent is more laid-back at the extream upper fqz's..less detailed. Both units have very good mid-range quality, female vocals are truly magic. The ... | |
| Best big screen for under $4000.00 SeanYes, the two types of cheap digital projectors on the market can cause problems for some people I have read.One is called "screen door effect" and the other is called the "rainbow effect". The X-1 can produce one of these effects, "rainbow". T... | |
| Review: Pioneer DV-563A Universal Disc Player CD Player I picked one up at Best Buy about a month ago. I agree that for $150 player that plays everything it's a steal. Heck, mine even played a DVD movie that I shrunk down and burned to a cdr disc. The bass management is not good for those with small sp... | |
| your wardrobe in 1972, any hip huggers? My Harley Davidson required more of the biker look back then, I wish I still had the pony-tail though so I could cut it off and glue it on top of my head!!!Dave | |
| What was your first music that you paid for? MejamesNot as bad as my first "sink the bismark", great system you have by the way! Wondering if your room passes the "hand clap" test though? I'll bet my Krell's would hunker-down and try to hide if those big-ass tube amps pulled up along side.Dave | |
| Review: Thorens TD-185 Turntable Thanks for the review, I may buy a budget TT in the not so far off, this new model from Thorens had been of interest because I have owned their TT in the past. Dave | |
| Best big screen for under $4000.00 ExertflufferI'm about as far from a video expert as one can get, I could care less about black levels and all the rest. Interesting that an old friend stopped by today, he saw my ($40) screen on the wall and asked me about it..I fired up "Lord of ... | |
| I finally compared CD to vinyl and... BudrewOn re-reading my post, sorry for the tone. I do think vinyl may sound better than cd in many cases, I also can understand tube lovers. My system is digital and SS but not because I think it's any better (or worse) than the other.Many, many c... | |
| Details don't mean a thing Well said Newbee, I agree. Your posts always get to the crab-legs!!!Dave | |
| Best midrange on SS amp ? One of the ways to have good mid-range in a SS amp is to make sure it can handle the bass fqz's of you speaker of choice without strain. That said, I can't comment on the Symphonic line..but I did compare a Batt (VK-500?, not sure if thats it's mo... | |
| Which preamp to buy in the 2000.00 range used Why not try a great Passive pre, Bent Audio's "NOH" comes to mind. Placette Audio passive is it's equal in the $1,200 price range. I've listened to both and while I bought the Bent, it wasn't better than the Placette...just different.The AR LS-5 i... |
