| Matching Pre-Amp for Audio Aero Capitole MKII ? Golden_ears is right on the money! I have tried a few different preamps with capitole mkII's and it always sounds better running direct. Preamps used include, BAT VK-50se, CJ art series II, Aesthetix signature IO to name a few. | |
| 2 Channel SACD? System - thoughts/suggestions? Having spent a fair amount of time with the 9000es I would say its fair at best on Redbook, on SACD its better but it still doesn't show how good the format can sound. You may want to consider sending it out to be modified by a proffessional to ge... | |
| Money no object,,,,which speakers would you own??? Kharma exquisite 1a reference- or if I was being really foolish the Grande Exquisite :) | |
| EMM Labs DAC6 vs. latest version dCS Rsbeck- You can not plug a DAC6 directly into an amp for it is nothing more then a 6 channel DAC, it would need to be used in conjunction with the switchman mkII(preamp). As where the DCC2 can be run direct because it has a built in 2 channel swit... | |
| EMM Labs DAC6 vs. latest version dCS Rgd- You are correct, the DCC2 is a slightly different creature then the DAC6. The DAC6 is nothing more then a 6 channel DAC, as where the DCC2 is a 2 channel DAC, with a built in 2 channel switchman(analog volume control) and 2 sets of analog inp... | |
| EMM Labs DAC6 vs. latest version dCS Having heard both of them the same day at the show in Montreal last month, the Emm labs was in a different league then the dCS. Both had great associated equipment, the DAC6 just got the listener so much closer to the music. I have heard dCS befor... | |
| Be-wire or not be-wire Jmlab Electra 926? I'm not sure what be-wiring is, how ever bi-wiring often depends on cable, amp and speaker synergy and like most audio tweeks personal taste. If you have the cables and an amp capable give it a shot. Other wise wait for more reply's then me being ... | |
| Tubed cdp that can be hooked up to amp directly. Most companies that sell cd players like to sell preamps as well, hence make more money. I think there are fewer one source only guys out there then you think, but more are becoming one source folks, for a number of reasons. Also more cd players a... | |
| Tubed cdp that can be hooked up to amp directly. I am going to have to disagree with lohkkw@tm.net.my with players that use a digital volume control it would be better, how ever those players that use analog volume control(even SS, not just tubed units) it has ALWAYS been better. I have tried it... | |
| Tubed cdp that can be hooked up to amp directly. Look into an Audio Aero Capitole mkI you may be able to get one close to your price range and it is a great player. I have no experience with the Shanling but they do like nice. | |
| Premier Redbook CD Transport or SACD Player? What's your budget? I have something in mind but it is pretty expensive- though it would do what you are looking for. | |
| best monitor available? Zaikesman- You are correct when you say it is a floor stander, but the name of the speaker is the 3.2 reference monitor. Also Emster said open to small floorstanders if necessary so I figured that one of the best sounding speakers that just happen... | |
| Digital with analoug volume Audio Aero Capitole MkI and MkII, also the older Resolution audio CD50 and CD55. | |
| best monitor available? If your looking for the best monitor around, look into the Kharma 3.2 w/diamond tweeter and enigma cable/crossover upgrade, you will have one of the best speakers period- all in a nice 75lbs. package. Contact those who have heard these little gems... | |
| Dark Side of the Moon Travelstead- They are out there in the US, I don't know exactly what to look for but if you click the link in my first post and look for some talk about D.S.O.T.M. you will surely find the difference, I know it is easy to tell them apart(slightly ... |
