| 2006 BEST Female Vocal CD/SACD/XRCD Sara K - Water Falls, is a nice bluesy album, and extremely well recorded. I also love Rosie Thomas's When We Were Small. It's leagues above the rest of her small catalog (mentioning that so if you've heard anything else by her don't judge). It's ... | |
| 2006 BEST Female Vocal CD/SACD/XRCD And Margo Timmins (Cowboy Junkies) is ALWAYS a great pick. Her brothers and her put together another great album, Early 21st Century Blues. it's mainly a great covers album, but the 3 originals are some of my most favorite Junkies songs in the pas... | |
| Ridge Street Audio Sason Ltd. Loudspeaker Eric,I owe you a call. Thanks for the voicemail. I was out of town during the Thxgiving holiday, but we need to get together whenever you're back in the area.Ted | |
| Ridge Street Audio Sason Ltd. Loudspeaker David,Thanks for your supportive comments throughout. As far as subwoofer integration I've even tried, fairly successfully, to integrate my Paradigm Servo 15 into the 2 channel Sason soundfield. Thanks to the wondrous Velodyne SMS-1, the integrati... | |
| Ridge Street Audio Sason Ltd. Loudspeaker I want to chime in here for only a few comments. I am in the 3ist day of the 45 day trial with the RSAD Sason's. I have two major pieces of data:1) These speakers are unbelievably susceptible to the break-in process, unlike anything I've ever enco... | |

| For Diana & Cassandra fans Also check out her(Cassandra, that is) collaboration with Jacky Terrasson on "Rendezvous". Gret recording, great stuff. | |
| Need 2 channel only preamp with XLR outputs The Electrocompaniet preamps, like the 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7, are great used balanced pre's that work very well with ATC active speakers. Remember, many of the ATC's (like my ATC 150 pro actives) present a fairly low 10k ohm impedance, so any hi-impeda... | |
| Advise on Audyssey Sound Equalizer installation? One of the limitations of the EQ, is there is no install kit available to the consumer and the installer will have to come back to calibrate when it will becomes necessary.For that reason alone, along with many others, you need to do the room trea... | |
| Best POP audiophile recording/album... AlbertPorter,I agree 110% with your list, especially the Waters, Rickie Lee and Cassandra picks. Ill add Cassandra Wilson/Jacky Terrasson "Rendezvous", and Cowboy Junkies "Trinity Sessions". | |
| Need balanced pre with HT bypass/remote/ Thanks Roberts4152. Update: I'm currently trying a Bryston SP2, and although it's day job is a pre/pro, the analog 2 channel bypass portion of it is the well-regarded BP26 pre. Although I've lost a little bit of air from the Modwright, it's sound ... | |
| Need balanced pre with HT bypass/remote/ Man I wish I could find some ATC active owners! Here are four more that have been recommended, and a repeat idea from Bob Reynolds (the lowly pre section of the Bryston SP2 ssp).Herron VTSP2Cary SLP05 Ayre K-1Xe (from ATC review)Sim Audio P-08 (fr... | |
| Need balanced pre with HT bypass/remote/ SW,LOL...I am so sorry for calling you swampkiller. LOL. It makes me laugh, though. Anyway, I will try and give a listen to the VAC. The closest dealer is in Michigan, and he has ATC's too, so should know something. He loves the Doshi preamp, as d... | |
| Need balanced pre with HT bypass/remote/ Swampkiller,Is that the Renaissance or the Ren Signature? The Signature version seems awfully expensive, even compared to the Ref 3. I can't swing >$10k.The recent Sonic Flare has a couple of interesting takes on ATC actives. They love 'em but ... | |
| Need balanced pre with HT bypass/remote/ OB,Thanks. Damn, was hoping the newer tech in the LS26 helped it move past the Ref 3, or at least catch it...but at half the price I wasn't ready to bet on it. :>) |
