| Looking for music streamer/server...Is a Macbook Pro better than a Sony Hap Z.... I switched from a top of the line Windows based laptop and Wyred4Sound DAC-2 DSD to a Sony HAPZ1ES (my second one) with absolutely no regrets and to my ears, the Sony blows away the former set up. I got tired of the endless software updates and s... | |
| Bottlehead vs. Audionote Kits I may be wrong but in the low wattage SET amps, wouldn't 8 watts be a better choice than 3 1/2 watts? What are your speakers and how efficient are they?. I would think that with low powered gear, every watt is precious. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Just now I listened to Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd SACD and Roger Waters, The Wall SACD. They sounded incredible on my GE Triton Ones | |
| A.J.Conti Passes. This is very sad indeed. | |
| Putting together a system...looking for some suggestions I own both Triton Ones and Triton Twos (2 different systems). The Triton speakers are in no way bright or etched. I am a guy who always had speakers with silk dome tweeters as they are less bright and the GE folded ribbon tweeter is one of the bes... | |
| TTWeights closing their doors So, all you guys with a TTW turntable are left in the dust. Their resale value is a lot less now, lol. Meanwhile, VPI keeps going strong. | |
| Replacement for Matrix 803 S2 Erik_squires...................Have you ever heard the GE and B&W side by side? I have and the B&W were bright and forward , where the GE are smooth. There is a night and day difference. | |
| Reliabilty, Keeping Equipment Powered on or off? The manufacturer of my amplifier (Odyssey) recommends the amp stay on at all times unless you won't be using it for months on end. My Stratos amp has been left on since April 2010 and only turned off for 10 days when we went on a long road trip. ... | |
| Vocals and upper midrange too forward? I used to own a pair of DeVore Gibbon 8 speakers. I never felt they were bright or fatiguing but they were quite lean in the bass. I had to get them close to the wall behind them and that did help a little. I was using an all tube preamp (Audib... | |
| Enlightened Audio Design Ultradisc 2000- needs to be fixed I would check with Pioneer. Doesn't the 2000 use the Pioneer stable platter? | |
| Replacement for Matrix 803 S2 Golden Ear Triton Ones. I made the plunge and never looked back. I listen to mostly rock and metal and trust me, they will fit the bill. | |
| Need Help From The Resident Experts Agreed, he is. Unfortunately, my road trip will be postponed for 3 weeks due to my wife working the next 2 weekends and Columbus day. I won't get down there until the weekend after Columbus Day. I am so impatient though. Kind of sorry I asked ... | |
| Dark Side of the Moon - Is MFSL really all that? Erik..........On my system, the latest Experience Edition sounds the best for cd, followed by the SACD Remaster. The Experience Edition is 2 disks, the second disk is a live recording of Dark Side from Wembley Stadium. The MFSL comes in third, a... | |
| Dark Side of the Moon - Is MFSL really all that? I have that version as well. I thought it was done in 1978? The half speed mastering is unbelievable. I don't understand why the LP has less hiss than the MFSL CD that I also have. I have 9 LP's of Dark side, 5 CD's and 3 downloads plus a DVD ... | |
| Need Help From The Resident Experts I spoke with John Rutan at Audio Connection and I will be traveling there Saturday to audition the Belles Aria preamp. I may also audition the Rogue RP-5 if the Aria doesn't float my boat. Thanks to all for their input, the information I receiv... |
