| Will computer to DAC replace transports and cdp's? configured as RAID 5, so its pretty safe. If I blow up two drives at once, guess I'm reripping everything, but that prospect seems pretty minimalI think it's just a question of time before computer storage makes CD/transport systems obsolete, but ... | |
| Rai anyone There are 2 volumes of "Rai Rebels" that's also very good, a mix of different artists. | |
| comparing monitors I'd suggest checking out the sonus faber signums, it was the entry level in their classic line, very good bass, excellent imaging but they do need some space, probably a couple feet out from side and front walls. They are rated at 4ohm, 87db, the ... | |
| Playing dual layer SACD/CD disc on Sony DVP9000 ES I have the same problem, I've read that it is a hardware problem, need a new laser to fix it. This appears to be a common problem with these units. | |
| Rookie here, SACD's sound "muffled". Normal? If you have not already done this you might try breaking in the SACD player longer, on some players the CD and SACD each need a separate breakin period. | |
| Help finding Hi End in Denver I'd also recommend Jim at SoundsRealAudio.com, check his website for his product line and also call to see what he has in stock. He sells and demos systems from his home and I've found him to be very helpful and a nice guy. I think he matches comp... | |
| What would be upgrade from my setup for PC sound Steve at www.empiricalaudio.com also does an upgrade of the transit, he has several different versions which I heard at RMAF, and was very impressed. I am planning to demo his off-amp and modified P3A Dac in my system. | |
| Audio Research PH3 SE - Shelter 501 II compatibili I tried the PH3 with the Shelter 501 II, and felt that it did not have enough gain. Reading the specs it seemed like it might just marginally have enough gain, but it wasn't quite there in my system. I had a big improvement when I sold my PH3/LS8 ... | |
| The Future: Multimedia PC "Separates"? It looks like there are several interesting, new "music servers" with an integrated CD reader/computer/disk storage (Zero One, Mcintosh, Cambridge) but I have the same concern - there are a lot of parts that can fail in these systems. Computers ar... | |
| Anyone has listened to the DeHavilland GM70 SET? There is a review of the DeHavilland GM-70 amps in Jazz Times.I've been listening to a pair of the GM-70s with the SF Amati Homage for about 3 weeks, and the reviewer is spot on, IMO. Feels as if the musicians are in the room, even with music that... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Sonics1 - I just had an email from Mick, he was traveling and said it might be a couple days before he could check email again. But I expect you will hear from him soon. It might also be worthwhile to contact PS Audio to see if others have had any... | |
| Is the Teres a How accurate is the timing on the record itself? Does it vary with the quality of the manufacturer? Sorry if this was covered already, and Thanks. | |
| Monitors under $1500? There is a pair of Sonus Faber Signum's listed in the classifieds for that price - you might want to check them out. I've had a pair for 3 years and continue to be amazed at how good they sound. I've also tried 2 floor standing speakers, Martin Lo... | |
| why does preamp improve sound quality? I just read reviews of Robert Harley's "The Complete guide to High End Audio" on amazon.com, and there was some pretty serious criticism there about his lack of technical knowledge and techincal errors in the book... makes me wonder if it would be... | |
| Martin logan vs. B&W Dave - I wonder if the Martin Logans you heard were not set up properly, one of the things I love about my ML SL3 is the soundstage, they very precisely locate the instruments. I have them 5 feet from the rear wall and 4 feet from the side wall, a... |
