| What high-end multichannel SACD players are there? Depends on your budget. I had a Denon 5910ci for a few years but in the interest of consolidating a BluRay and MultiChannel in to one I sold the 5910 and have just bought the Denon 100 Anniversary Edition DBP-A100 and am very happy with it's perfo... | |
| what does V.P.I. stand for? I was once told by a retired retailer that it was an acronym for "Very Profitable Indeed", but I would imagine the folks at VPI would know for sure. | |
| Are audiophiles people of sound prejudice? I agree, we listen with our ears and can only really know that single certainty. We listen with others and to others systems, but we listen with biased tastes. Like eating a great meal, certain flavors are more endearing to our palet than someone ... | |
| CD drive vibrates on some disks How do they perform in other CD players? I would first suspect the external drive has an issue, since it was probably designed for data, they manufacturer probably wasn't too concerned about drive balance.Also you may try reloading the disc and tr... | |
| Is there a problem with my Lyra Delos cartridge? I would contact Immedia or Jonathan Carr, who posts here once and a while. I had a Delos and traded uo to the Kleos and haven't had that issue. It sounds like a problem with the suspension or maybe the coils, but either way I would have it checked... | |
| Ayre C-5xeMP Owners - remote swap? and tips I have had mine for quite some time and have heard no read decernable differnce whether it is on Ayre Cuboids, Vibrapods, AQ Feet, Black Racing Cones or just a wooden shelf. I think the Ayre is built so well that isolation devices bring any real c... | |
| can we still sort by zip code in items for sale? Who knows if it will ever be reactivated. But I sure miss it. I also miss being able to e-mail a member directly. Along with a lot of other features. Change, weren't we sold that word in 2008... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Just gat a nice clean used MFSL copy of Supertramp- Crime of the Century and am just amzed at the bass in this recording. Then I switched to MFSL 45 rpm Patricia Barber-Cafe blue and just thinking why do I ever want to change my system. | |
| How long it takes to break in Running Spring Haley I have a Ha;ey and a Jaco and after 3 months you have heard the extent of what it will do for you system. If you are still lacking in certain areas of your sound, you need to look at cables,components, speaker placement etc. I really believe that ... | |
| Ready to RUMBLE Have you tried taking it off the Gingko? I have a P25 and tried a Gingko and sent it back. I found a Base and AQ feet to isolate best on Regas design. You'll love the Delos by the way. | |
| Lyra Delos vs. Kleos? Tom, I would not define the highs as neither soft or bright but as natural as I would expect them to be. I really feel this cartridge has a knack for presenting a true and accurate timbre from top to bottom. To say soft, bright, warm or cool is ap... | |
| Pete Townshend sells rights to his music I had heard back when John Entwistle dies that they continued the tour because they were in need of the money.If that is the case it is sad as I am sure they have made plenty of money thru the years. But the lesson is it's not how much you make bu... | |
| Lyra Delos vs. Kleos? I too started with a Delos but my dealer allowed me to upgrade to the Kleos and after about 4 weeks with the Delos it was a superb performer but the Kleos is better. I feel that extracts more information to the extent that I have been amazed at ho... | |
| Mcintosh with Ayre pre-amp As a long time McIntosh owner I would take a serious look at the MC352 or a MC402. They will have a much quieter background than the 252 or 302. McIntosh does not incorporate their double balanced circuitry in the 202,250 or 302. And with any Ayre... | |
| Cardas Speaker placement.. I like the Wilson method of voicing the room. Start with you back to the side wall and speak as you walk step by step away from the wall. You will hear you voice change as it changes it's interaction with the wall. So the same with the back wall. ... |
