| Upgrading power cables For me, upgrading the amp PC first made a big improvement in the system as a whole. Using a high currant cord I got much stronger bass, a wider soundstage and more detail across the board. Upgrading the source cords further refined the sound to ... | |
| Which CD\SACD? geoffkait, who did the work on your Oppo 103 and what mods were done? | |
| Your jaw dropping cables I've had excellent results with Straight Wire Crescendo III interconnects and speaker cables and Clarus Crimson PCs. | |
| Choosing a CD or SACD player over my Oppo BDP 95 jafant, did you have a chance to audition an Audia Flight? | |
| Which CD\SACD? I have an Oppo 105D with the full ModWright upgrade and, while it does many things well, it cannot complete with a high-end dedicated SACD/CD player. If you don't need the other things the Oppo brings to the table, with your budget, you can defin... | |
| Hegel H160 competitors The Hegel H160 is very good. At a similar price, the new Audia Flight Three S is worth an audition. If you bump up your budget to H360 level, the Naim Supernait 2 is another good option. | |
| Universal Players vs. Dedicated CD/SACD Players The Audia Flight CD One M finally came in. I'm running everything through a Furman IT Reference 20i now, as well. Out of the box it's absolutely stunning, even better than what I remember from the demo unit I auditioned, so I can only imagine wh... | |
| Universal Players vs. Dedicated CD/SACD Players Agree that the Cipher is an outstanding player. Hope you have a sturdy rack - that thing is a monster! | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? There certainly are, and many are mentioned earlier in this thread. My only concern with Audia Flight is after-sales support and warranty work, if needed. Their components are built like tanks, so I have my fingers crossed that they perform just... | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? Unfortunately their distributor in NA has not put a lot of support behind the brand so they remain somewhat of a mystery here. Their retail network is not very big, but I highly recommend an audition if you ever happen upon one. Everything I've ... | |
| Universal Players vs. Dedicated CD/SACD Players I have an Oppo 105D and sent it to ModWright for their complete upgrade. I auditioned an Audia Flight CD One M and it blew the modded Oppo completely out of the water when playing red book CDs. Audia Flight comes next week and the Oppo gets re... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt, you might want to check out the Clarus Crimson HC power cord for your amp. I have one on my Mark Levinson 23.5 and it made a big improvement. | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? Moving from a ModWright Oppo 105D to an Audia Flight CD One M next week. | |
| Parasound JC3+ or Audia Flight Phono For me, it really depended on the preamp. On a Parasound it was very quiet and on the Audia Flight I mentioned above, it is dead silent. When I hooked it up to the Spectral, however, it was noisy. When I used the Mute switch, it quieted down an... | |
| Parasound JC3+ or Audia Flight Phono Thank you both for your valuable feedback. I'll give it a try and see how it goes. I'm really looking forward to trying it out if it's as good as advertised. |
