| B & W 805 nautilus broken tweeters ? Just a warning, if it is the tweeters, they aren't cheap. | |
| Looking for an Integrated below $2000 I had a Parasound Halo Integrated and while it was ok, the Belles sounded much better. BTW, there is a used Belles Aria integrated listed here for sale. I am not affiliated with the seller. I heard the Aria integrated at Audio Connections paired w... | |
| Seeking speaker purchase advice While these speakers don't have a ribbon tweeter, the new JBL 100 Classic speakers at 4K will rock your house down. They are perfect for Classic Rock. | |
| Conrad Johnson MF 2100 or Classe CA-100 I had a CJ MF2550 amp for a short time (couldn’t wait to unload it) and the 3 words that come to mind are: slow, thick and syrupy. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Miles Davis, “Kind Of Blue” MFSL SACD | |
| VPI Prime or Prime Signature? I would go with the Prime Sig with the Fatboy gimbaled arm. | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp I was running GE Triton Ones with an Odyssey Stereo Extreme amp which was rated at 150 a channel compared to the 130 per channel of the Khartago. The Odyssey amps are the better buy and you get a 20 year transferrable warranty to boot. I sold my... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Johnny Winter, "Scorchin Blues". | |
| Esoteric D-03 or D-05 I have the UX3 which is the same as the X03 except my unit can play DVD audio as well. | |
| Could the new Audender A30 be "the one" for a simple system? It looks to have everything you would need. How much is it? It uses a lot of separate power supply's, a Teac transport for ripping and a excellent Western Digital Purple 10TB HD. I believe it also has the latest AK DAC. If the price is right I... | |
| Esoteric D-03 or D-05 While the D 03 uses last years tech, it has a much more robust power supply. The Dac in my Esoteric SACD player is Burr Brown (TI) PCM 1704 which is an R to R Ladder DAC. I wouldn't trade it for the world. If I want to listen to DSD, I use my S... | |
| Turntable Mat question I am using an Oracle record mat and HRS record weight on my Technics SL1200G. Sounds much better than the stock mat and no weight. There is more air, an intoxicating sound that makes me want to keep listening and playing more records. another A... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? It's 10:45pm and I am listening to the SACD of Pink Floyd, "DSOTM" in my upstairs office. I am very relaxed now. | |
| Sonus Faber Venere S - What amp to choose? I'm at a crossroads! Your Jolida amp is 60wpc and the Prima Luna HP integrated (I am familiar with this amp as my friend has one) is 70-80wpc. It won’t sound much better as you would only be going up 10-20 watts! The Prima Luna sounds excellent with the KT150 tubes an... | |
| Goldenear One.R .........who has them? @smodtactical...……………..That is each, not a pair. The USD price is $4499.95 each. In other words, multiply by 2. |
