| 6000 dollars CD player Why not SACD? There is a lot of great Classical Music on SACD. I would look at one of the many used Esoteric’s on the market. | |
| Preamp thoughts- Conrad Johnson ET7 S2 V McIntosh C2600 I have the older model C2500 preamp and find it quite neutral. It is dead quiet with excellent dynamics. It cost me $4200 used and worth every penny. | |
| SF vs Raidho @hakano,Seeing as you are a first time poster, I would think you would be a little polite to others. After reading your responses, I wouldn’t give you a straw hat in a blizzard. Being nice is not a new concept, try it sometime. | |
| Anyone Have M2Tech Gear? Looking for opinions @mijostyn,i would love that, please keep in touch. | |
| Focal Sopra 3 I find both B&W and Focal to be bright. I don’t like bright but prefer the non-BE tweeters in the less expensive Focal speakers. Never could warm up to any B&W speaker. I listen to 90% Rock so YMMV. | |

| What Power with JBL's It might be helpful if you mention the model of your speakers as JBL makes speakers from $400.00 a pair up to $75,000 a pair. I have a pair of the new JBL L100 Classic speakers and I am driving them with a 200wpc McIntosh Integrated. | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) A simple answer to your question, NO. | |
| Aging Gear for Aging Ears Sometimes older is better. They say that about older men and women, so who knows. | |
| Need Mark Levinson HF-2.5c speaker cables Post a "want to buy" in the Audiogon Classified section. A basic ad is $4.00 and more people will see it. | |
| Focal Sopra 3 Have you heard them? If not, its a lot of money to spend without listening. Go listen and come back with your thoughts. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Pink Floyd, "Is There Anyone Out There" (The Wall Live 1981) CD | |
| Anyone Have M2Tech Gear? Looking for opinions I live in Rhode Island on the northern border with Massachusetts. | |
| Anyone Have M2Tech Gear? Looking for opinions I heard the M2Tech Young DAC and although it sounded ok, I hated the looks. I heard it at a store that is no longer open (owner Ralph retired) and can’t remember the store name. Store was in North Andover, Ma. | |
| Emotiva XPA DR-2 Gen 3 Amp (AB output - input H) I tried Emotiva about 6 years ago. I found the sound very thin and hard sounding. When I opened the unit up, there was a huge empty chassis with 3 small boards. Power supply was a joke. Emotiva is midfi that likes to pretend it is high end, on... |
