| I'm confuse Do i need a dac for my cd player ? Photon46,Interesting. So does the "law" of a higher quality/higher priced (assumption there) CD player mean that the higher the quality CD player run into the DAC the beter the sound comming out? OR are the rules broken to the extent that an older... | |
| I'm confuse Do i need a dac for my cd player ? Ok- So, if you are using a DAC in your system, does the quality of the CD player/transport make any difference? It seems the DAC is re-voiceing the music anyway. | |
| Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews I'd like to tag on to Gmood1's ideas about measurements and add that IMO all reviewers should post their hearing curves as measured by an audiologist. A reviewer's ability/inability to hear certain frequencies of sound (we all have them) are as un... | |
| Decision between Zu Definition OR VS DB99 Come on--Deciding on which of these speakers sounds best is like trying to decide which high end wine tastes better: Depends on what your eating, what the ambiance is, and most importantly-who your with. AND-if you an't ever drank it- don't talk a... | |
| Von Schweikert DB99 or Vandersteen 5A ?? Samcclark-PM me- the guy I bought the DB99's from is in MI he may be able to help you with listening to a pair. | |
| Von Schweikert DB99 or Vandersteen 5A ?? Samcclark-Dynamic and alive instead of "lively" and there is no consensus which I am aware of that the 99's are forward. Any moderate to large sized room will be fine for the 99's IMO. It's about placement, as any speaker is. Find the right placem... | |
| Von Schweikert DB99 or Vandersteen 5A ?? Thanks for the pm Rx8man- To avoid any confusion in my above thread I was responding to Samcclark not Rx8nman. Too much holiday eggnog. | |
| Von Schweikert DB99 or Vandersteen 5A ?? Rx8manPerhaps others who have heard the 99's sound forward may have heard them in improper set ups. When I first got the 99's I did think they sounded forward. What I discovered was that placement was key. Once I got them positioned in my room (my... | |
| Anyone heard the Consonance Cyber 800 amps? Go read the review on enjoythemusic.com Dec issue- Cononance cyber 211 mono blocks. That will definetly peak your interest. | |
| Von Schweikert VR4SR Loudspeaker Audioblazer-I nervously bought the VSA99's without audition due to location. But make no mistake, I researched speakers for aprox a year and a half- reading and asking many questions from experienced audiophiles. Buying these 99's is the single be... | |
| What would you say is the better sounding SET amp? I have found the Consonance Cyper 211 mono blocks increadably satisfying. Check out Dec issue of enjoythemusic.com for a most recient review of them. The reviewer compares them to 90K amps- retail however is about 5K. | |
| tyler linbrook signatures vs. b&w 802 I don't think there is such a thing as a noncolored opinion. We all hear in our own way: Sometimes with our ears, sometimes with our pocketbook, sometimes through reviewers words, sometimes through advertising and the list of influences goes on. I... | |
| Decision between Zu Definition OR VS DB99 For what it's worth Gregm's identification of how the 99's sound from the specs is spot on. Meaty/dynamic and very good sound imaging. I would add that with the 99's rear firing tweeter with ambience control one can adjust for pinpoint or focused ... | |
| Decision between Zu Definition OR VS DB99 I'd like to hear some comments on these two comparisons also. I own the 99's and have posted several times on my comments about their sound. Feel free to look those up by doing a search. I Use them with Consonance Cyber 211 mono blocks-would highl... | |
| Anyone hear the Von Schweikert DB-99? How would one go about stopping clipping? I keep my speakers about 9ft appart and about 5 1/2 feet from back wall |
