| When is a Listening Room Too Big I wonder about a larger room just for that reason; scale. It's harder to convince yourself that Allison Krauss and Union Station are standing right in front of you when your room is 'small'. I think that all the Maggies are capable of amazing real... | |
| Inexpensive USB DAC I have not heard this DAC but Light Harmonic does make what is probably the best DAC in the world, The DaVinci, so this piece probably sounds very good:http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/geek-pulse-a-digital-audio-awesomifier-for-your-desktop | |
| Inexpensive USB DAC I second the BiFrost; i've heard it at several of the shows and it sounded very good, especially considering it cost of admission. | |
| New DSD DAC. Recommendations please I'm currently auditioning the exaSound e20 MK III and so far I am impressed with its sound, especially on DSD. I've only had it for one day so more info to follow after additional listening. The e20 is under $3k.The MSB Analog DAC has always sound... | |
| Bricasti M1 USB The Shelby Lynne DSD from AS sounds GOOD. | |
| Bricasti M1 USB I have no doubts that the M1 is a fantastic DAC. I will listen to the M1, the exaSound e20, the Analog DAC, and the Berkley DAC 2, and then decide which works best in my room and rig. I've downloaded several DSD files and they sound very good even... | |
| Polling MagnePan Users - Using a SubWoofer? Teajay, thanks, I will read that. I have considered the Mye Stands but right now I actually have a second pair of speakers in my room and it is so convenient to be able to just slide the 20.7's to the side when I switch over to my KHorns.... the n... | |
| Polling MagnePan Users - Using a SubWoofer? Mofimadess, if you ever try the Magnepan woofer panels please let me know.... I discussed that option with Wendell but he was very evasive and non-committal on what impact they might have... I guess it is hard for a manufacturer to admit that thei... | |
| Polling MagnePan Users - Using a SubWoofer? My room is PERFECT... it was custom built and is just right...17.5w x 26L x 9h; 20.7's sit approx 6 ft into the room...I think a subwoofer can add 'foundation' to the musical presentation and imparts a feeling or sensation of power (thump) to the ... | |
| Bricasti M1 USB Lasercd, how would you characterize the DSD you are listening too? How is it different from PCM?BTW, did you audition other DAC's before settling on the M1? | |
| Bricasti M1 USB Lasercd, still loving your M1? I just got scheduled for a demo of the MSB Analog DAC, should have it soon. I am also trying a 30-day trial of the exaSound e20 DAC. I auditioned the M1 at the RMAF and was impressed; perhaps I should attempt to get... | |
| PSVANE 845T Monoblocks? 104db Sensitive | |
| PSVANE 845T Monoblocks? Teajay,another question; in general terms, how would you describe a the typical sound/tonal differences between what you get with a typical 845 amp vs a 211 amp? For example, Grant Fidelity has the Cyber 845 mono's that can use either the 845 tube... | |
| Tried DSD? I will check with them at RMAF; they are supposed to be putting-on a big demo of their Hi-Rez service. I may download a couple of thier DSD albums to carry on my flash drive to the show. | |
| Tried the Marantz NA-11S1 Yet Not sure that I have even heard a 5.6 MHZ vs 2.8; how much music is out there in the 5.6 MHZ that can be purchased? |
