Integrated amp: Can it perform equal to separates? TO Timrhu, Thank you for your response. I agree with you, BC PRe3 is the best pre-amp I have ever owned. It really would not cost much much to ship to California. I just would like to have less boxes; I downsized before, but did not get the same q... | |
Integrated amp: Can it perform equal to separates? Thank you to all have responded. Your suggestions were helpful. I wish I could answer each one individualy. Nevertheless, Thanks!! | |
Integrated amp: Can it perform equal to separates? Thanks to all who have responded so far to this thread. The comments were all very helpful, though, I am unfamiliar with a few brands. The speakers are Acoustic Zen Adagios which I love, but they weigh 95 lbs boxed, and are very expensive to ship ... | |
Creek Destiny 1 & Destiny2 Any difference?? Ianderson, I agree with you about "newer" is not necessarily better" It could actually sound worse than previous model. I got some information from designer Mike Creek, who claims that the Destiny I bit the dust because the transistors in the outp... | |
Creek Destiny 1 & Destiny2 Any difference?? Let me had one more wrinkle to the discussion. What is a better sounding integrated in terms of overall musicality, transpareny and smooth ness?? The Destiny 2 or a Krell S300i. Both retailed for between $2500-2795. I will appreciate any comment o... | |
Creek Destiny 1 & Destiny2 Any difference?? Ianderson, Thank you for clarifying your comment. Now if I can only find out why the Destiny 1 is/was discontinued, and if so what makes the D-2 a worthy, improved replacement | |
Creek Destiny 1 & Destiny2 Any difference?? landerson. I don't have either a Destiny 1 or D-2. I have read about the switch you mentioned. One thing I am confused about is how by lowering the pre-amp out put by 6db, made your Destiny I sounder better. The Creek 5350SE Classic, I owned for 4... | |
Creek Destiny 1 & Destiny2 Any difference?? To zd542. I forgot to add a comma between Sim and Krell. The Krell, NOT the Sim, integrated sounds bright. The Sim sounded very good, but the power is a bit low, and as indicated in this article, it can be finicky with different speakers. However,... | |
Anti-Cables Level 3 Has anyone tried the Clear Day Double Shotgun cable made by Paul Ladati, or the Clearview Double Helix distributed by Mapleshade internet store??. I auditioned for 3 weeks the less expensive Clear Day Single Wire Silver, but Paul does not have a l... | |
Creek Destiny 1 & Destiny2 Any difference?? Thanks to all who responded so far; I needed info about the newer Creek amps because I am downsizing again to save shipping cost from Hawaii to somewhere in California next year. I previously owned a 5350SE Classic which I enjoyed for 4 years unti... | |
Micromega My DAC to improve sound of Rega Apollo Thank you Hk fan for the comment. To Michael102467, I know that MF V-DAC is on sale at Music Direct. I will probably try the Micromega which is not that much more money. BTW, What is a $35 "dog" cable" ?? | |
Micromega My DAC to improve sound of Rega Apollo The Apollo has an edge on the highs and upper mids. It provides an average sound stage, and could be smoother overall. I realize these qualities can be affected by room acoustics and system components and cables, but I think I know the sound of my... | |
Jerry Garcia, A Legacy? I began to seriously listen to the Grateful Dead in 1973. This occurred because I had a good friend who was enamoured by the Dead's music, and in particular Garcia's musicianship.He was in SF during the "Summer of Love" in 1967, so he was witness ... | |
