| Tube friendly speakers UNDER 1K? DEFINITELY- Reference 3A MM de Capos | |
| Vibration Tweaks I have tried them all, and highly recommend Aurios MIBs, or Brass triple points. | |
| Best Subwoofer for 1500- 2500???? I am a dealer BUT ordered from a Direct Only company (NO DEALER DISCOUNT)-SV Subwoofers. I haven't received it yet, but they have gotten substantial reviews. | |
| Replace DVD or add dedicated CD? IMHO, even at the upper end of the pricing spectrum, combined players will be highly compromised. Best to keep 'em separate. I have a CEC TL5100Z belt-drvie transport/player for sale. It would be killer to start your serious CD rig. See my ad on AG. | |
| How to improve the sound of VTL2.5? In addition to the usual suspects (see the two responses above), it may be something else, like your source. I recently purchased the GamuT CD-1 and was floored at all the new found music! | |
| Upsampling the way to go? ? Up and oversampling ala GamuT CD-1 Danish CD Player- better then twice DSD sample rate. $2950, see review in The Absolute Sound. I just got mine, and am loving it!!!!! Huge 3 D sound stage. | |
| Upsampling put to "THE TEST": R U ready 2 take it? While I have no doubt the basic findings would be similar, we are taking the reviewer at his word when exclaiming "everything was the same throughout". This is a bit hard to swallow. Tweaking has a greater impact on sound then many/most realize. T... | |
| Best amp for 5k used? SS or Tube Plinius & Electrocompinet, GamuT 200. I have owned several Plinius' and am considering the new 8200 MkII $2995 (NEW). I have heard EC at various shows over the years- they always sound good. | |
| Are you manufacturer's paying attention? This is actually part of a much bigger problem. Our hobby is incredibly small, and shrinking in the face of surround video. 2 Channel needs to grow 3-5, maybe 10 times bigger then its current size in order for manufacturers' prices to come down. E... | |
| Any experience w/ Vienna Mahler ? Before I was in the business, I helped a friend get a pair of Beethovens. They are excellent! The other speaker that I can highly recommend is one we carry Reference 3A mm De Capos. You can read my review at www.audiotweakers.com | |
| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s No doubt about it the Plinius SA 250 MkIII will grab ahold of the Thiels and make them perform. | |
| digital cables Go to www.audiotweakers.com CHeck out the Tek Line DIgital and Signature version- excellent! | |
| Best Speakers for small room under $3.5k Reference 3 A MM de Capos- see review on Soundstage. Also www.audiotweakers.com where you can purchase. | |
| DV-525 and Bel Canto DAC 1 v CAL CL-20 The DAC 1 is a good piece, but it has been considerably bettered by the Perpetual Tech P-3A ($699!). Go to www.audiotweakers.com to read review and purchase. | |
