| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Well I'm impressed by your diligence. Thank you very much for sharing your results and for taking the time and putting in the effort to do this. Here I am conjuring up all kinds of digital computer measurements, and you just go out and do the obvi... | |
| Cary CD303/200 or CD306/200? 303 can be used as transport using its digital outs. but the 306 has digital inputs so it can be a processor too for external sources.what you are paying for in the difference between these 2 units are the dacs and audio output section on the 306,... | |
| B&W nautilus 804 for linn classik? 804s with sub have much more integrated lower midrange than 805s with sub. I have both. | |
| Best Tube Amp for this setup? Bj, Sovtek's sure are great, aren't they? Plus i just *love* the little box they come in... a wee hammer and sickle on my 6922 boxes. Joy!! | |

| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Thanks Chris. Clearly you're knowledgeable! Seems though that digital source equipment can't produce quality up to what we can hear, so we can probably measure at a similar quality level and get some meaningful results.The dcs 904 will sample at 1... | |
| Kharma 1.0/ Talon Khorus/Watt Puppy 6 or Sonata? You've really got a wide spread of speakers here. I'm enjoying my Sonata mkIIs, but am frankly driving them with 50W Cary V12. Now, I never come close to using much of the Cary's power, so I think you could get away with 12W. These are 95db effici... | |
| Best Tube Amp for this setup? New 4k, but you can get used for 3K. 50W triode, 100W pentode. Beautiful in sound and looks. Rogue is good value though | |
| B W 804 for Home Theater Dealer told me they are for shipping to hold the mid drivers in. They are removed by dealer at prep time. | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Sqjudge,Can you suggest any components for doing this measuring and testing. Only 96db sensitivity?What about taking an A/D converter from someone like dcs which is really high quality and take the digital out of that and do the measurements?Is th... | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" I was a sceptic until I recently did my own tests. On interconnects I did repeated testing playing the same 1 minute section of music over and over. I was swapping the $4 per pair generic black interconnects you get with most cheap stereo gear, wi... | |
| Contemplating vinyl, How hard is it to get LPs? There is still plenty of new vinyl being produced. Ebay has lots of it (but shipping always negates the good prices). Best is to realize that you friends probably mothballed their record collections years ago and many would be happy to "lend" them... | |
| B W 804 for Home Theater Argent,Good question about the port/nut on the back. I have no idea what it's for. I left it alone. Cheers. | |
| B W 804 for Home Theater I'm using an HTM-2 center with my 804s for front and 805s for rear. The HTM-2 just sounded tighter and more clear dialog to me. I've hear this from other people, but you should listen for yourself.I ordered the CDM-NT rears (cheaper than the 805s)... | |
