| Feedback on Audioquest Diamond Ethernet Cables Al,Thank you for that link.The entire thread was speculation, but the last post was exactly what I was looking for - someone who used a cable and shared their results.Kindest regards, TJF. | |
| Best High End Audio Manufacturer??? I'd have to say Pass on that one. | |
| Recommend Class a Amp You didn't state the efficiency of the speakers, but a Pass XA-30.5 sounded pretty darn good with our Watt Puppy 5.1's (at the time).While these Wilsons were efficient, they were very difficult to drive.The little Pass is an overachiever by any me... | |
| Funny and clever Axpona Ad Way too funny guys!Thanks for the laugh! | |
| Amps under $5k that are resolving at low volumes? You can easily get a Pass INT-30 or INT-150 for under $5k used here on Audiogon.You won't be disappointed. If you have your room and speakers acoustically optimized and well set up, I'd recommend the INT-30 as it recreates the acoustic venue the p... | |
| CD Transport advices Respectfully, IMHO and from my personal experience, a good transport / digital cable / DAC combination will outdo all but the best USB systems.USB cables are not the ideal digital cables - XLR digital cables are with RCA digital cables a close 2nd... | |
| Comments on interconnect cables What are your listening preferences - what type of music do you listen to?Do you attend live performances as a reference when evaluating your system's performance?Is your system set up to recreate the recording as it was performed? Is it optimized... | |
| Emotiva XSP-1 vs XSP-1 Gen 2 George,Thank you for the feedback.I'm familiar with Bryston amplifiers. What model did you have?Can you tell us anything else about your system?Thanks again for sharing your experiences, TJF | |

| Proper subwoofer integration? Glad to offer whatever help I could. | |
| Emotiva XSP-1 vs XSP-1 Gen 2 Lev,I mistakenly hit the submit button.Product margins may seem excessive, but if you find a full service retailer who will support you in making long term investments - well I feel they've earned their profit.Operating a retail store involves sel... | |
| Emotiva XSP-1 vs XSP-1 Gen 2 Lev,You make several confirmed points, but there's more to consider. I don't disagree with you, I want to share our experiences.First - American Company Products:I support manufacturer's who maintain a financially sound company, offer products tha... | |
| Emotiva XSP-1 vs XSP-1 Gen 2 Lev,A big thank you for sharing. We've had Threshold T-200 and T-400 amplifiers and they were very good, even by todays standards.Your feedback on the XPR-1's is impressive. An endorsement for certain.I would think the XPR-1's betters the T-50 in ... | |
| Emotiva XSP-1 vs XSP-1 Gen 2 I respect your opinion and would like to ask what amplifiers you compared the XPR-1's to?I would like to try Emotiva's stuff, I just can't be bothered ordering it, listening to it only to send it back if it falls short of sounding reasonably convi... | |
| Proper subwoofer integration? While this may sound over simplified - trial and error will be the best way to determine what works best.Using all the filters in series, while it will no doubt result in a very steep cross-over slope, will most likely make integrating the sub dif... |
