| Canare 4S11 Canare & Mogami manufacture some fine wire and rather than argue I suggest experimenting. I am not only an audiophile but was a composer musician in my youth and have used low to high-end cables from Goertz , Synergistic Research, Nord... | |
| Musical Paradise MP-D2 MK3 DAC IMHO, after reading the 6 Moon's review of the MHDT Orchid you could easily switch names to the Musical Paradise MP-D2 MK3 as the description appears synonymous. I have not heard the Orchid but they share similar sound design elements though the M... | |
| Musical Paradise MP-D2 MK3 DAC I have the MP-D2 MK3 and I'll repeat much of what has already been mentioned above. Organic and natural is a good place to begin. And I will add relaxed, detailed with loads of timbral integrity when film caps and tubes are replaced with hi... | |
| Aural Harmony - Any Experiences Aural Harmony is a legitimate and respectable boutique company that produces nice wire for the money. I sold a number of more expensive big name interconnects years ago after trying their gold/silver/copper cyro combo. I won’t mention names becaus... | |
| Classical Record Labels and Recording Engineers... Rushton, I believe you covered the bases very well and I would like to point out that one label was missing from your exemplary list, Astree of France and their outstanding chamber music recordings of Jordi Savall and many other great musicians by... | |
| Santa Fe, NM Audiophile Society We have met at members homes for various listening and most recently a (7) DAC shootout. PM me and I will fill you in on details or go to Google Groups link!https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/sfaudioMonte Verdi | |
| Affordable Japanese LOMCs--Recommendations? Johnny, I recently purchased a AT33ML/OCC with 200 hours or so from a member. Frankly, it sounds wonderful with excellent detail, neutral mids deep soundstage and good bass response. It has a mid-hall sound I prefer with excellent inner resolution... | |
| Removable headshells 101 HalcroI too have acquired a tonearm with a removable headshell option, and I could not be happier. I will not deny there is a lot to be said for the one arm bandit tonearms with no detachable headshell, but I like many different types of music (cl... | |
| Deutsche Grammophon Beethoven Bicentennial Collect Sorry, not worth much. If you need some Beethoven might be worth keeping. The DG set of Beethoven symphonies to have is the early 60's box set with DG tulips, with Berlin and Von Karajan. | |
| High Efficiency Speakers Your top 3 or more Altec A7, finest speaker at any price. | |
| Scheu Turntable w/Classic arm, which MC? Help Must note that low level detail that I mentioned above was not the result of cartridge as it turns out. It would seem that it is a result of the phonostage in Scott 222C. After putting my Blue Circle amps back into service as I upgrade Scott some ... | |
| Blue Circle amplifiers I do not have experience with BC integrated's but I do have a pair of BC 2's and they are amazing. Gilbert is among a few fine engineers in this industry who is not only innovative but also a really nice guy who will go the extra mile to help you ... | |
| What were the best and worst rooms at RMAF 2009? Or, some vintage Accuphase, McIntosh, Western Electrics or Kondo's through Tannoy's, Altec's, JBl Paragons or exotic Klangfilm's. It would blow peoples minds how amazing vintage gear sounds to 90% of what is heard today. | |
| What were the best and worst rooms at RMAF 2009? Yeah, they were the Penny's. Perhaps that did play a role in the depth of field reproduction but quite honestly the sound was involving and balanced. I have a pair of BC 2's that have depth extraordinaire at a higher $ amount ( in it's day) than t... | |
| What were the best and worst rooms at RMAF 2009? Best Rooms!1. Soundsmith, with Strain Gauge cartridge set-up, VPI table, Tere's arm, Soundsmith solid state amp, Soundsmith tube pre and Soundsmith speakers. Nothing short of spectacular.2. Tron Electric SET monoblocks with the TW-Acustic turntabl... |
