DAC with HDCD function under usd1000 I just picked up a Sonicfrontiers sfd 1 mk2 for 695 from Jeffssoundvalues. Check him on this site. | |
Tube Amplifiers? Hi Robk No one mentioned the Anthem Amp1,and from reading the reviews this unit is probably great bang for the buck. I will have one in my system by fri(jan 5). Give me a little time to burn it in and I'll let you know. | |
Sonic Frontiers Preamps - Cold & thin? Just purchased a Anthem pre 2L and don't have the same conclusions as above. This pre has a bold non tubey sound. I am using a Aragon 4004 and Krestral spkrs. I think the anthem is a lot of bang for the buck and with the Marsh(just auditioned)amp ... | |
Best new amp under $2k? I just listened to the Marsh amp(200 watt) and it is a Killer amp. 3d in a big way, smooth, detailed, great soundstaging. All this for under 2k. If you get a chance this is a must listen. | |
How did U get into this expensive hobby? I guess it started with me growing up in nyc and being surrounded by muscians(my dad plays guitar) and just knowing what instruments sound like. Later I just wanted my system to sound as close to the original as possible. I believe it's not so muc... | |
Meadowlark Kestral Owners! - Amp Help. Prfont I have a pair of Kestrals(nonrodded)with a Aragon4004. I have not tried any other pwr amp, but as said above they are fairly efficent. I'm looking to replace my amp if interested. I also have tried the Audible Illusions with the Aragon, gre... | |
BNC Info Please I have noticed that some of your better gear has bnc outs. Both my counterpoint transport and my wadia dac have bnc. | |
Marsh 400 vs. Bel Canto EVO I have not heard the Bel Canto, but The Marsh is one h--- of a amp. Clean and quick. Heard this amp with some maggies- wonderful. Check them with your own gear. Good listening and happy holidays. | |
Know of a "Dirt Cheap" tweak? Actually the tweak about the cups upside down is in a issue of Stereophile. I use dixie cups and lift my spkr cables off the floor with good effects. Good listening | |
affordable tube preamp-AE-3 vs. Pre1L? Just purchased a anthem Pre2L and so far so good. Still in the process of burn in but what I am hearing is the magic of tubes without the typical tube sound. Look up Jeffs Sound Values on this site and tell him what your looking for. Good Listening! | |
cd player skipping What do you have the player sitting on? If you tried the various cones,platforms,bricks then your unit might be defective. | |
BUZZ IN SPEAKERS Sounds like a serious ground problem Stang. Mondial makes a device(can't think of the name at the moment)that might fix your problem. Check out there web site. Good luck | |
Most reliable equipment manufacturers I have to give Mondial a thumbs up. Would you beleive they are still doing upgrades for the aragon 4004! Well built and good sounding gear. | |
Info on Threshold s/150 Just found out a little more on this unit. I was trying to compare it to a Aragon4004. Was told both were similar. Any thoughts on this? Thanks | |
Inexpensive CD Transport I have a Wadia 12 dac and use a old counterpoint transport. Both have the bnc connectors and I beleive both together sound great. I have not had the chance to try any other transports so any other advice I can't give. Would like to try the rega as... |
