| Emotiva equipmet, how good is it? I had an Emotiva XDA dac. It was the brightest and thinness sounding piece of crap I ever heard. You get what you pay for. The worst were the very bright and ugly led’s. It could burn holes in your eyeballs. Never again, I got conned | |
| D&S Tech Labs Speakers Are you aware they are Home Theater speakers? | |
| Which power cords should I look at? Why not go all Shunyata? That’s what I dif but I am using their mid line cables from 10 years ago and I use two Hydra 4 conditioners and a Hydra 2. My system is totally dead quiet and I use a tube preamp. I think you would get more system syne... | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Premium with KT150s. Has anyone heard these? My friend has the Prima Luna Dialog HP integrated with 8 KT150 tubes. It is the best sounding integrated I have ever heard and with his Harbeth speakers, you can listen all day and then some. Powerful yet delicate when needed. | |
| Too much of a good thing... If you want something a bit brighter, Nordost comes to mind. | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound @mkgus...……………………………………….I tried 3 Pangea Acc9 MKII cables and also an AC14 something and they all sucked the life out of my system. Back they went to AA.I use the mid priced Shunyata cords in my system and am extremely pleased. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Bush, “Sea Of Memories” CD Deluxe Edition | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect I just ordered 10 of them. Eight 1 meter cord and two 1.5 meter cords. Do you think it is worth a cool $240,000.00? Cant wait to use it on my $300.00 stereo! | |
| To buy grounded or not to buy grounded. That is the question. I would bet those ungrounded cords are not U L approved. Should one of them catch fire, would the homeowners insurance cover it? I am willing to bet they wouldn’t. | |
| Nature of the current used speaker market I was just looking through the Classifieds here and saw some great deals on speakers over 6K. I almost wish I was in the market instead of finished with my Audio buying as there are some mighty tempting speakers listed. | |
| Vandersteen 3A (no signature) vs ADS 1230 A good friend had the Snell Type A speakers in 1977. I remember bringing them up to Newburyport in Mass for an upgrade. On the way back, we stopped at Hilltop Steak House (sadly gone) for lunch. We met Peter Snell. He left us way too early in l... | |
| Looking for a pair of Polk Audio LSiFX For $4.00 you can post a "Want to buy" in the classifieds here. | |
| Emotiva equipmet, how good is it? Emotiva is a lot of amp for the money but it is lower mid fi at best. What do you expect for something made in the US for 500 bucks? If you are going new, go with the Yamaha or better yet, look for something used or save a little more money and ... | |
| Vandersteen 3A (no signature) vs ADS 1230 At the turn of the century, I was using Vandersteen 3A speakers They were quite a big upgrade from the Vandersteen 2CE I was using. It is the same sound of the 2CE, but more of it especially in the bass. I am not sure where they would fit in th... | |
| Speakers near fireplace @2tuby...…………………………………..Bi-wiring Vandersteen speakers should be considered mandatory. Richard Vandersteen is very insistant on that. |
