| Pass X1?? Hmm, quite the dilemma. Although at this stage of quality I think one would definitely have to hear one of these in one's own system. Now how do I get my hands on a X10 or X20? :-( No dealers around here who carry that sort of stuff. | |
| Pass X1?? On the contrary I suspect the X1 is more neutral than the X20 (great preamp but slightly romantic mids compared to the X1) IMHOCurio, I'd like to hear more of your thoughts on this observation. I have the X1 and I do love it, but like others I'd b... | |
| OPPO BDP-83 audio output question Byegolly, can you give us more info and what you've been able to compare it to? | |
| Anything like the Ayre CX-7e but with digital in? Nakolawala, I'd love to hear your impressions of both of these units. | |
| Anything like the Ayre CX-7e but with digital in? I've heard earlier Cary CD players and found them to create a powerful, visceral sound, with good detail but maybe not quite the best in terms of upper end air and space. I suspect the 306 Pro would be a bit further along the road to perfection. :... | |
| Anything like the Ayre CX-7e but with digital in? Larry, have you heard the Esoteric? | |
| Anything like the Ayre CX-7e but with digital in? Thanks Dan. I've heard the 840C in my system. While it is very very nice, it did not exceed the performance of my current transport + DAC. Definitely a nice unit, though. I'm looking for something that, for me, would be a step up at about the pric... | |
| Anyone hear both Parasound JC-2 and Pass XP10? Ah, that's interesting news. Now audio memory being what it is, George, can you say anything about your memory of how the XP20 sounded in comparison to the JC-2? | |
| Anyone hear both Parasound JC-2 and Pass XP10? Hi George. Checking in to see if there's any news to report. | |
| Modwright vs EVS vs RAM vs ASI-Tek, OPPO BDP83 Tennisamp, I'd like to find out more about how the modded Oppo sounded next to the C5xe. | |
| "Best" multichannel universal player right now? Pretty much. In this case best performance for what might be called "high end" at a price which is just at the point of rapidly diminishing returns if exceeded. | |
| "Best" multichannel universal player right now? Yikes! I would hope so for that price, Tvad. I might consider that beyond the "knee" of the curve. :-0Audiolui, yes everybody seems to love the BDP-83. Like I said the earlier models I'd seen were truly a great bang for the buck. If you've heard t... | |
| "Best" multichannel universal player right now? Thanks again Kal. Which of the two (Pioneer, Marantz) would you say has better sound across all three formats from the analog outs? | |
| "Best" multichannel universal player right now? Thanks Kal. Would you consider the Pioneer to be better than the Marantz DV9600?Johnny, I haven't heard the BDP-83, I think it is, but I've had friends bring two other Oppo players over to my house in the past year. Amazing quality for the price, ... | |
| "Best" multichannel universal player right now? Using HDMI for video. Currently would use the analog outs to a highly modified EAD multichannel controller. |
