Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Rick, can I ask you about the Saracon software from Weiss. How do you use it? Is it used in conjunction with Itones as is Amarra? 
What's the oldest piece of gear in your system?
Kingmacaw, ah the memories! I had all of these components except the Pioneer tt. But I had the Win tt later. 
New amp being touted as among the best ever......
I hope to hear it at the RMAF or CES.

Geopolitis, yes, indeed. My life unintentionally has been complicated by getting a new turntable, the Bergman and a new cartridge, the Ortofon A90 as well as getting a new version of my linestage. This is, of course, a no no for introducing new co... 
are subwoofers anti-audiophile?
Rleff, sorry I missed your follow up question. Basically it is a discontinuity in speed. Horns have a leading edge like live music and you always hear the subwoofer tagging along more slowly. I am told that the Zu Method is fast and keeps up. 
are subwoofers anti-audiophile?
Nandric, I don't share your sentiments. I love quality organs, especially in big churches. But as I have said, subwoofers are quite difficult. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Bacardi, No and yes. It was a very nice improvement. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Barcardi, it has been a long time, but I think a week will probably do it. It will probably continue at a slower pace afterwards. I loves being up on MIGs.

Slipknot1, did you and your buddies not buy the ARTs because you were unimpressed with what they did?

Well I have had the Tidal Contriva Disacera SEs playing for three days now. Each day has been dramatically better than that before, which is not to say that I was unimpressed the first day. I initially place them exactly where I had the Acapellas ... 
are subwoofers anti-audiophile?
Rleff, well with some I really don't remember. My Infinity ServoStatics had a feedback subwoofer, which may have been larger than 12". It was, of course, really a woofer, but it never really mated with the electrostatic panels. The second was an E... 
are subwoofers anti-audiophile?
I cannot speak for others, of course, but my experiences with subwoofers have all been unfavorable. Mating one with a speaker system, especially horns or electrostats is all but impossible. Typically, after much trial I simply give up.I have a Zu ... 
Blue ray player with good audio
Nglazer, the power supply in the 83SE and the Exemplar modified 83 are stronger. In my experience the Oppo BDP-83 was not the equal to many of the other players used with digital out. That is not true of the Exemplar, however.I persist is saying t...

Nsgarch, actually it is called pseudo science. It is better than rejecting science which many of our species do, but it also assumes that we know everything about nature and humans and need to heed no further observations.It still perplexes me how...

Hi, guys! My Contriva Discera SEs arrived yesterday and now are playing. To my surprise they have high WAF. They have some breakin on them so I expect to be happy shortly, such as I was at the RMAF when I heard them on Sunday of the show.One first...
