| Andy Bartha: anyone know him? Contact? Definitely give Andy a call; I have his MSB modified dac and his power supply for it, as well as his supercharged dvd player for a transport. It is the best digital sound I've ever heard and they're not severly overpriced. One of my buddies brough... | |
| HomeGrown Audio Impressions I hate having to say this, but I'm in agreement with Carl. Bought a pair after hearing abt them from someone here, and have been far less than blown away (and I wanted to be.) Taken as a 'budget' cable, they're stellar performers; I have a pair of... | |
| Least power for Merlin VSM-SE's Thanks a lot for the info abt the upgrade; I was unaware of it. Will definitely get it asap. One question: did you have Merlin install the upgrade or did you do it yourself? | |
| What CD has the best production/sound? The new Kate Schrock (which was mastered by Ludwig) is great. It's called Dame's Rocket. | |
| MIT or MITH? Above are good examples of why I reluctantly participate in these chat discussions; people just don't know how to communicate effectively and intelligently. All too often, it becomes an exercise in bashing someone else, for no apparent reason. I'l... | |
| MIT or MITH? Sugarbrie; if you don't think my BMW has better parts quality than a Chevy, I've got some beach property in Ohio to sell you. I disagree with the premise that parts quality has nothing to do with a product. However, I do agree that someone, somewh... | |
| MIT or MITH? I'll tell you a couple of facts, then my opinion. Fact: When MIT attends trade shows where they are trying to get new dealers, they have a sign up with 3 reasons one should carry their products. The first reason is PROFIT. A local electrician took... | |
| Anyone Heard the new Powersnakes? Ejlif, your experience is certainly different than mine: I am disappointed in the sound of the viper v2 AFTER 10 days of intensive break-in. I purchased it to go on my Resolution cd55 and my 'el cheapo' vansevers pandora cord sounds just as good, ... | |
| What the heck is Resolution Audio My experiences totally bear out what deborah1 has stated: the BEST digital playback I've heard is the 47 labs combo. It's the simplest, it has no filters, oversampling, or anything. It's a 'simple' 16/44 redbook player, yet it sounds like . . . mu... | |
| Ship to USA only? Glad to hear someone else has had similar experiences to mine in selling outside our borders. I too have a 'collage' education, from Emory U. As much as I've tried, I just can't come up with a better way to put things than avguygeorge already has;... | |
| Ship to USA only? I've bought and sold many items north of the border. And not had any problems. The key is this: I've always prepaid when I was purchasing something, and had them prepay me when they were purchasing from me. Some will argue this takes any control o... | |
| What the heck is Resolution Audio What was that all about? (Up above). | |
| What the heck is Resolution Audio Sam, sure I'll loan you $3k, at 25%; the unit is beautiful, but at night, in the dark, I just close my eyes and enjoy the absolutely gorgeous sound. It sounds better today than it did yesterday. Unbelievable. That's the only way I can describe it.... | |
| What the heck is Resolution Audio Sam, why don't you call the company and ask them YOURSELF. Then report back to us; frankly, I don't care about sacd. I had an scd-1 in-house for over a month, because my father purchased one and was in Switzerland for a while. I WANTED TO LOVE THE... | |
| What the heck is Resolution Audio I'm not employed by Resolution and I'm not corrupting anyone (my children are still young, though), and the CD55 is the absolute BEST digital playback I have ever heard. I've owned or have friends that own many of the top brands, including dcs, so... |
