| Best Dac you ever heard I have to agree with Audio Aero, bests the big guys by a bit and is affordable, in fact I am going from accuphase to the new capitole, and saving a bit of $$. Though I haven't heard the new accuphase(ala DP-85), I would like to keep both kidneys a... | |
| Anyone know what is going on with Resolution Audio They are waiting for the format wars to end, they will not waste R&D time when they don't know what to focus on, at least that is what I have been told, if there is rumor of a new player I haven't heard about it and it isn't what they claimed ... | |
| Which cables and ic's would you choose? Cyrus-I am running Avalons(Eclipse) with a similar accuphase digital front end(DC-300) I am currently using Cardas Golden Reference and enjoy it very much, though I am planning on upgrading to Jena Labs shortly(symphony line) the only others I wou... | |
| What time do you wear? Eric-I have a Kirium its OK but it is the one watch that I have that I don't care for too much, probably because it is quartz, they are available as an automatic and I would strongly advice towards getting it that way as it will have NO value rete... | |
| Best Kept Speaker Secret? I don't have any best kept secrets, I like to stick with the major names but if I had to pick one I would say the Piega line in particular the P10(more then 4k though) not many are famaliar with them but those who are know what I am talking about,... | |
| Best Kept Speaker Secret? tweekerman-that's this week last week it was martin logan, let us know what you think in a few more weeks.Tim | |
| Maggie 1.6's and Power. How much is enough? It should do ok but I have a feeling what ever your using for a center channel is going to JUMP out at you, make it presence very appearent, thus making smooth pans from left to right virtually impossible. Of course more power wouldn't be a proble... | |
| Which Projector in the following situation??? Look into Sharp Vision projectors, they are super simple to set-up and east to tweek(adjustments on the picture) also you should be able to find one in your price range. Like most things HT related they lose there value faster then anyone can imag... | |
| Audio Aero Capital CD vs SACD Bad-The new one isn't even in the country yet, it will be in a few weeks(mines on the way:) they changed more then just the faceplate and also increased the price a bit from $6900 to $8800 retail, but it is suppose to be better in many ways, and I... | |
| Jazz Renaissance Ben-Some very good points, I hope you can understand why I am a little disappointed with my generation, they just don't seem serious about anything. Maybe in the years to come there will be some hope, after all the people "running" things today we... | |
| What is the best tube integrated amp with remote Bobgates-Check out the Pathos twin tower and classic, both are highly regarded tube int. amps, and are incredibly stunning to look at.Tim | |
| Jazz Renaissance Ben_Campell-Of course it was a generalization, perhaps a gross over statement, but you can't turn the radio on or VH1, MTV etc and much if any of what you are talking about. As some of you know I am a large Techno fan-so of course I listen to some... | |
| what made you get up & dance during the Olympics Mario-Glad to hear you had a good time, must have been an experience to be engulfed in all of the greatness of the olympics-though I didn't see a single event(not my cup of tea) I can only imagine what it would mean to an enthusiast-a truly once i... | |
| powercords for BAT amp&preamp? I found that the power cord from a Sunshine can opener works the best, simply cut off at the can opener end and then get some wire nuts and run it direct to the amp and pre amp. Forget using that IEC outlet it degrades the sound too much. Hope tha... | |
| Jazz Renaissance Now I am not old enough to remember this but there was a period in time(maybe even before many of you) that jazz was the "Milli Vanhilli" music that older folks loathed. Simply because a lot of younger people are following jazz now, I don't think ... |
