| Selling dispute. Please comment. I would refund the money, MINUS shipping. The guy is being a prick, plain and simple. Once you get the amps back and verify they work, I would then give the buyer NEGATIVE feedback to let everyone know what a picky bastard he or she is.He is reall... | |
| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? The only thing I have ever heard when someone has seen my system is "how many watts do the speakers put out?" When I politely try to explain that speakers do not put out watts, they usually walk away. | |
| where to go beyond Esoteric x05 Whats wrong with the dac in your X -05? I doubt any of the dac's mentioned will give you 3,000.00 better sound than what you have now. IMHO, it would be a step sideways | |
| Esoteric SA-10 or Ayre CX-7e: Too close to call?? I owned an SA 10 for 2 weeks this Summer. I didn't like it that much as I found it very uninvolving. Previously I had an Esoteric DV50 which I loved and should have kept. I am now using an Esoteric UX-3 player which I love and will keep.The SA 10 ... | |
| Vote for best speaker value under 5K$ My current speakers are the best under 5K speakers in my system. Odyssey Kismet Reference speakers. | |
| Help with Modified Audible Illusions Modulus 3 For one thing, all the caps have been changed. Does it work ok? You can send it to Audible Illusions in Florida to have brought back to factory spec. Whoever updated it did a pretty crappy job. | |
| Esoteric owners - SA-50 to ? I believe that all Esoteric players use discrete output, no op amps. | |
| What do I need? FYI, The Emotiva XDA 1 DAC is a very good dac. I had one for 6 months and loved it. When I replaced it with a Wyred DAC 1, I found very little improvement. Certainly not 800.00 worth of better sound. | |
| B&W HTM4S IN CHERRY Grow a set of balls and keep the cherry one. | |
| ZYX Airy 3 Best SUT I am using a Denon AU320 SUT with my Audible Illusions Modulus 3B preamp. I am running a ZU/Denon Dl 103 with .3mv output. The sound is excellent. | |
| Wadia 121 John,Very well thanks. Still have to get down to you to have the mc preamp swapped. I don't like using the Denon SUT when I know there is a good mc preamp in my other unit. | |
| Wadia 121 Nothing burns me more than when an unfinished product is put out to the public. A new, just released dac shouldn't need new firmware or new parts to make it work the way it should, Simply no excuse for this. | |
| Esoteric owners - SA-50 to ? "The newer Esoteric players sound way better, they are much more musical and way more involving."I don't know what to say about that. I just bought an Esoteric UX-3 (ehibitor unit) player and I truly love it. It's the best digital in my home. I li... | |
| Audible Illusions vs CJ preamps: sonic difference? They will burn through tubes which are NOT recommended for them. For 240.00, you can buy 4 matched, very low noise tubes from Audible Illusions. I have also had good luck at The Tube Store. I bought 6h23neb tubes, graded and matched for less than ... | |
| Audible Illusions vs CJ preamps: sonic difference? Older versions can't be upgraded but AI gives a VERY generous trade in allowance towards a new 3B. |
