| Tinnitus - do you have ringing in the ears? Chuck, I just seem to have developed a case of tinnitus myself. Been to the ENT. No blockage or fluid; hearing test result was "perfect" in their words. They put me on Flonase, as I also have bad sinus congestion. In your use of H2O2 is it stright... | |
| Onkyo DV-SP1000 Universal Player I shot him a note.I don't mean to suggest a RAM'ed 4960 will not sound good (or even great). Additional searching shows me they have quite a fine reputation for this kind of work, as do many of the modders often mentioned here on AgoN. But I go ba... | |
| Onkyo DV-SP1000 Universal Player Lanny, I looked at RAM's website. They seem to have it all covered, but one thing I did not see (and didn't expect to) was any mention of DAC replacement. I'm of the feeling that along with all these great analog and PS mods, the digital section h... | |
| Onkyo DV-SP1000 Universal Player Lanny (and anyone else who may be able to help), the thing that gets me about the SP1000 and the Marantz DV9500 is the almost non-existant user feedback comparing the two for audio use (Redbook and HiRes). I've looked both here and on AVSForum, an... | |
| T-7000 didn't work out, now what? Well, there is the other option of getting my PCD modded by Empirical Audio. They're supposed to do good work with getting transports to sound their best. | |
| T-7000 didn't work out, now what? Do you think that would be better than trying something like a Museatex CDD? | |
| Three transport choices, which one? Tabl10s, I've heard that the Melior CCD really only sounds best if used with the BIDAT, and that without it's still a good (but not as good) transport. | |
| Can anyone recommend center ch. for Shahinians? Well Jer, I know Dick Shahinian knows the boys at Ohm. Since they are in Brooklyn and he is in Coram (on the Island) I think it might be possible to just bring veneers from Point A to Point B. | |
| Three transport choices, which one? Bluebull, I'd love to, but a used 37 still commands a pretty good price. | |
| Three transport choices, which one? Lush, does the Museatex have a glass (not Toslink) output? | |
| Three transport choices, which one? Thanks Matt. I've run across a number of pieces of info suggesting the T-7000 mates with the DSP better than the Proceed transport. So that (for the moment) leaves the Theta. Now I thought the Theta Data Universal and the EAD T-7000 were based on ... | |
| Three transport choices, which one? Mejames, okay, you've had quite a bit of experience then with this combination. What were the downsides? That is, in what areas of reproduction did it not do so well?I see you moved to a Wadia. My friend has the same unit, but unmodified, so I've ... | |
| Three transport choices, which one? Jeff, which DAC did you use at the time? I've read reports on Audio Asylum that the T-7000 did not do well in recreating the decay, kind of the "back end" of the notes, and that it was maybe not quite so airy and extended on top. I'd appreciate yo... | |
| Three transport choices, which one? Factaudio, I've heard that the Museatex is an okay transport, but only okay, if it is not used with the BIDAT. Can you shed any light on this? Have you heard the Museatex with other DACs? Additional thoughts on its sound would be most welcome. | |
| Can anyone recommend center ch. for Shahinians? Jer, I just looked at these on the web. Yes, they are oddly shaped - but the Diapasons are not exactly standard looking either! Very reasonably priced. I remember hearing Ohm speakers many times over the years.The stuff they offer is very reasonab... |
