| Marantz 8260 CD/SACD Well, it may have fixed your problem but my player does sound dramtically better when left on. Turning it on and off makes for a mighty long warm up period. Hopefully this is not the case for your player..Chris | |
| Best CD for Cary SLI-80? The Cary 308T is a very good match. I ended up with a XA777ES with my SLI-80 and am very pleased with the Redbook performance and SACD is just bonus. I would say the Regas might be a little on the warm side for the Cary. Good luck.Chris | |
| Theory about Cary amps and their reviewers Reading through this thread is very interesting. I have owned and auditioned multiple Cary Products. I would also say they are probably not for everyone's taste. I read Nrchy's comments on his experience and realize there was no Synergy with his s... | |
| Good power cord for Rotel? I presently use the Audience PowerChord with excellent results on my Integrated Amp and CD Player, but I do want to give mention to the Signal Cable Power Cords. I gave their Digital Power Cord a try and liked it very much especially for the price... | |
| Review ... Neil Diamond's "12 Songs" Interesting. I like Neil and have read other good reviews of this release. I sampled it yesterday and was disapointed. I will give it another listen.Chris | |
| A tubes vs. Solid State question. It is funny that there such extremes of opinions. My first high end system and several systems after that were all solid state. I appreciate the characteristics of both SS and tubes as there are benefits and strengths of each. I presently own a tu... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone My family's thoughts and prayers are with you. Chris | |
| Krell Intergrateds..how come nobody likes em? I owned one of the first Krell Integrateds and it basically sounded like a receiver. Sold it after 4 months. Not a Krell fan but I am sure their separates have to be much better. I would so hope anyway.Chris | |
| Theory about Cary amps and their reviewers In my experience, they are second to none. One of my good friends turned me onto them and has probably owned 7-8 of their amplifers with ZERO problems. I have owned a CD-308 CD player and my current SLI-80 and have had nothing but success and enjo... | |
| Mini Monitors - Dynaudio and JM Labs After looking at your system, I would strongly suggest you also consider the Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors. They would compliment your system nicely and are in the same price range as the Dyns and the JMS.chris | |
| Mini Monitors - Dynaudio and JM Labs I would agree with Washline. I came very close to purchasing to a pair or 1.3se's but something was just missing. I owned a pair of JM Labs in the past and sold them to a good friend. I actually listened to them on Friday and I sometimes wonder wh... | |
| What SS Int Amp to match with Sonus Faber? Unison Research Unico. It is inexpensive 80 Watts and has a tube input stage. Or you could step up to the plate and purhase a REAL-TUBE Integrated Amplifer like a Cary or a Pathos. Good Luck.KiD | |
| Can DK design MKII drive the Magenapan MG1.6 well? Too much power doesn't blow speakers. Chris | |
| Sonus Faber Concerto Home. Very nice speakers, although I actually prefered the Concertinos Home I had before I upgraded to the Concerto Home. I was in a small listening room at my previous home (a spare bedroom) and the Concertinos were really amazing.As I was not using a ... | |
| Tyler Acoustic vs. Paradigm You will not regret that purchase. Congrats and enjoy your new speakers.Chris |
