| SACD/DVD upgrade question... I can only speak from the DV8300 Marantz, I feel it ok but nothing so special that I would consider letting my Linn Ikemi go. I am actually hoping to see if Linn or Naim release a SACD/DVD-A/CD player in my price range. Linn is releasing the UNIDI... | |
| best dvd player under $1000 new or used Why would you want to upgrade the Denon? That is tough machine to beat. Is yours a MKII? If you want a multi disc player try the Pioneer Elite 47Ai at 999.00 in most stores.It plays SACD Stereo and Multi Channel, DVD Audio and DVD Vidio as well as... | |
| I'm depressed, my system hurts my ears.Please help My 1st question would be. Does the system seem unusally bright or glaring in the high notes? Have you tried different cables? Are you sure that one of the components has a performance problem? | |
| Vienna's vs. Bose Lifestyle 35 all highs and no lowswhoops must BOSE! | |
| Inexpensive tweak so whats next, dog urine on the woofers, hamster nibbles on cables, goldfish scales on connectors. Give the kitty some PeptoBismal and get out the alcohol swabs and start cleaning. | |
| Speaker tweak VPI and Cardas offer products that do this. Also you will find that it can help by placing weights on your amplifier since all amps produce a sonic hum these weights can restrict "movemment" and tighted the amp up | |
| What is a "servo" sub and any advantages? I own a Servo 15 and love it. The servo is control mechanism that returns the driver cone back to its original position faster than the magnet will. So the advantage is that when the cone is traveling to the furthest reaches of its excursion it so... | |
| Rega Planet or Cairn Fog I van tell your from experience the Rega skips. I had a Jupiter and a heavy bass not would reset the laser to track one. Not a fluke Lauerman replaced it and it did it again. Sam Tellig in Stereophile also makes mention of this. It is airborne vib... | |
| MAC Noise I would send it back to McIntosh they are very reasonable and that would assure you that is leaves them as it did when it was new. | |
| Best Cardas cables w/B&W M802's & ARC VT100MkII? No question, I recently switched to the Golden Ref's and what a difference. The detailing and extended staging is incredible. I had one dealer say "No they are too analytical"...DUH! No I want the experince of being on stage or in the studio and t... | |
| Flipping the LP over ... Always turn it off! No static build up, no scratches, no chance of slipping and dropping the LP and sending it toward the cartridge. No time is saved by leaving it on and besides listening to vinyl is a ritual. | |
| Reasonably prices wires/intrconnects try usedcable.com cables don't wear out save some money andbuy some good used cables for the same money as new low level cables | |
| NAIM Alternatives-from people who have switched. Actually without going to far from where you are with NAIM I would try Linn. Linn amplification is clean and very compact due the power supplies they use. Naim is tough to beat though. I am using a Naim Stageline with Hi cap power supply as it was... | |
| Home Theater Power Amplifier Help Definitely agree with other responses. Get more power! I can only hope to discourage you from buying in-walls. Look at any reputable speaker company and you will never find a cabinet made of drywall and two by fours. You lose all flexabilty and po... | |
| Calling all "Vinyl Heads" Ok, here is the curve to all this. Buy a Linn Sondek LP12start out with a base table to get into it and over the next few years go for the upgrades. Keep your RB300 to start then upgrade it later. I recommend the Incognito harness for the RB300 it... |
