| ESOTERIC X-03 VS. AYRE C5XE As an owner of the C5XE I can only comment that it is worth every penny. I have been spending the last month or so rediscovering my CD collection. It does an excellent job on the SACD and DVD-A formats. I haven;t heard the X-03 but have listened t... | |
| Revel m20/m22 or epos/totem equivalent As an owner of the M22, used for rears at this time, but while I waited for my F32's I used them as froms and was so impressed that I considered cancelling the F32's. I did listen to Totem Mani2 before making my decision and I felt the Totems were... | |
| New 11' x 7' listening room....small speaker? As mentioned not knowing your budget or if a sub can be incorporated. I would try the Revel M22, or Acoustic EnergyAelite 2, or if budget permits the Linn Akurate 212 which is an awsome sounding stand mounted speaker. Actually the Linn could proba... | |
| Ayre models in black At extra cost all Ayre is available in black. I mentioned to one of the reps there in recent visit that they need to put some pictures on their website. As mentioned above leave a message and they'll get back to you, they always have with me. They... | |
| Does Verity Parsifals mate well with solid? The only time I heard the Parsifals was on Krell SS amp and it didn't stop me from falling in love with their sound. The price did, well actually not the price as much as my budget. | |
| wadia making mistake? It makes a statement that they feel SACD is a worthwhile format. They have always done a good job on Redbook I would like to hear what they do with SACD. It aslo leads me to think they have reached a Redbook sound they are satisfied with and aren'... | |
| Phono amp recommendations Just 2 cents here. I owna Linn Linto and just tried the Ayre PH5 for the weekend and well I gotta save the dough but it was much better than the Linn. Stereophile rates the Linn above the Ayre but I disagree. The Ayre sells for 2350 but maybe your... | |
| Wood blocks underneath components?? snake oil? oddly enough I just picked up my Ayre C5XE from Ayre Acoustics in Boulder after a small repair. The gentleman there asked if I had ever tried the myrtle wood blocks and gave me three to try. Why not,Right? I still have my minds jury deliberating, ... | |
| what is an audiophile ? a person who love music to the point of obsession with it's quaility of reproduction.AKA A fool with an expensive hobby | |
| TV and/ or system rack between speakers... I have the same issue but witha smaller screen. I really don't think that is has "screwed up"it has altered it to it's own sound. My speakers, Revel F32's, in this configuration do a very good job of imaging and staging. The sound is off the floor... | |
| 2 DD12's vs. 1 DD18 As an owner of the DD12 I would say go with 2 of the 12's, my room gets by fine with one but my ambition is to eventually sell the DD12 and get 2)DD10's. Every system I have heard with 2 subs sound markedly better and more controlled than with one. | |
| Any good $100 DVD players. I've got a 6 month old Denon 5 disc carousel I would sell you fro 100.00 plus shipping | |
| Best cd player for around $3500? Also look at the Linn Ikemi, I know of a Demo unit for around 2800.00 good disccount 4000.00 new. | |
| CD player not reading I would say that if you can dis-assemble the unit down to where you can access the lens try using canned air first. Then if no progress is made try a water moist Q-Tip and extremely gently wipe it down. I would be carful with the alchohol as it mi... | |
| Anyone heard the new Moody Blues SACDs yet? MoFi, I'm just clinging to those younger years of long long ago! By the way just spoke with all the big three Sellers Acoustic Sounds , Elusive Disc and Music Direct and it appears that they were all mis-lead by the distributer in that "In Search ... |
