The last 5 ????? Jadem6, your a man of many, well thought words, I'm a man of few and hopefully, well thought out words too. What your struggling to put into words are categories/increments of change/improvement revolves around the differences between quantitative... | |
Opinions on Classe Cam-350's? Autoll, I can't help you out about the differences between the Cam-400's and the Cam-350's, but I can share the following information regarding the Cam-350's. About three years ago I went through a long audition process, which included seven diffe... | |
Reference DACS: An overall perspective Exlibris, was thinking about how your auditioning process is goning regarding the Acoustic Arts gear. Last night a friend wanted me to bring over my AA DAC/Stealth Sextet cable to try in his system (Electrocompaniet ECI integrated amp, Electrocomp... | |
Reference DACS: An overall perspective Exlibris, your experience so far is very similiar to what I heard, but I would describe it as being "closed in" before the DAC blossomed into giving its best performance. I used to use the Acoustic Zen cable and found it to be smooth and warm, but... | |
Reference DACS: An overall perspective Exlibris, my experience with the AA DAC was it sounded pretty good after around 30 to 40 hours, but really opened up and significantly changed right around 250 to 300 hours of playing time. I never noticed it sounding worse before it got better, j... | |
Best low priced transport Bigkidz, its some what out of your budget, however the new CEC belt transport, it retails for $1000.00, but you might get lucky and get a demo/used one for alot less, has a performance which is amazing and is very well built. Either of your DACS w... | |
RCA Digital: Stealth, Pure Note, Cerious Rja, I have had the Stealth Sextet in my system for a couple of months now, and still am amazed at its performance compared to any other digital cable I have ever heard. You might be interested in a review I posted here on the GON to compare your ... | |
Reference DACS: An overall perspective Branimir, the Pass Labs XA series adds even more "warmth/easyness" to the overall sonic signature of the .5 amps. If you like what must people would describe as a tube like quality, then the XA amps would be very pleasant sounding to your ears. Be... | |
RCA Digital: Stealth, Pure Note, Cerious Rx8man, I have a philosophy, "if you have not heard it, you don't have an opinion", therefore I can't give you feedback on Paragon or Cerious, since I have never auditioned either cable. However, I have auditioned quite a few cables in my system, ... | |
Reference DACS: An overall perspective Branimir, as always thanks for sharing your experiences with us fellow GON members. Regarding your ranking of the digital gear in your dealers system, two qustions: 1) Do you think you will change your Jason/Medea front end to the Esoteric referen... | |
RCA Digital: Stealth, Pure Note, Cerious Rx8man, I'm curious about why you are ruling out the Stealth Sextet. Is it totally the cost? The Sextet offers all the virtues you are looking for in a dramaticly better fashion then any other digital cable I have ever heard. Someone was selling o... | |
Pass Labs X600.5 or a Pair of Classe Omicron's? Sorry Doc, I thought you mean't by up-grading the 600's to 600.5 was an actual modification that could be done by Pass Labs, not the trade-in deal offered by Audio-Logic in Iowa. To answer your question, no I did not find the 600's "dry", but not ... | |
Pass Labs X600.5 or a Pair of Classe Omicron's? Doc, there is no upgrade possible for the Pass LabsX-600's to the new generation .5 series. I believe that the 600's were the best sounding of all the X-generation amps, but the new X-.5 series is a significant change/improvement compared with the... | |
Reference DACS: An overall perspective Branimir, you posting your systems have stimulated my curiosity in a few directions concerning the different sonic signatures of your two wonderful systems. So, here are my questions: 1) What are the similarities/differences in the overall sonic's... | |
Reference DACS: An overall perspective Exlibris, based on reading a past post you put on another thread regarding the Acoustic Zen Absolute IC's and speaker wire I was aware that you had replaced your Cardas wires with Mr. Robert Lee's new reference. Would you be willing to share what ... |
