| Best transport to use with Jadis JS 1 tube dac Detlof I thought it was earlier than 1963. Then the " New is not always better" applies here?. I have a Telarc recording made i think in the mid 90's they list all the Sony mic's and other super high tech equipment. But the older recordings sound ... | |

I'm sure the AA and AM are reliable units but if the Electro unit qualifies for the additional word VERY then that answers ... | |

| EMC1 upgraded versus MKII Hey Ljgj my speaker thread still has me thinking pretty hard. I feel like and probably look like a dog chasing his own tail. The 1 conclusion i drew from my electrostat shootout was that you need a big amp to drive em. All i can afford was the lit... | |
| Best Kept Speaker Secret? Thorty thats probably true. But those electros really drink the juice!! Powerholics!! True they sound great except the low end is soft. They are QUITE BIG. I prefer a great small AFFORDABLE quality intregrated to drive efficent speakers as opposed... | |
| Sim Audio Moon W5 vs Electrocompaniet Amp Mr. Stehno has a right to state his full and honest opinion, as does Mr. Celery. But if you listen carefully AND read between the lines seems Stehno's has some bias and distortion, 2 qualities nobody likes in their systems. Electrocompaniet makes ... | |
| EMC1 upgraded versus MKII Ljgj If you are still following this post could you further explain the Kora sound. My heart was set on getting a used EMC1(and maybe not upgrade for someone said that the 192 bit upgrade tends to make the music less smooth he prefers the 96 ???) ... | |

| AudioMeca vs. AudioAero vs. Electrocompaniet Hey Patmatt if you go to audioreview and look up EMC1 you'll find 33 beautiful gut-soul-praises of this unit.(and i think these are about the MK1 model). But are you sure about the Mephisto's performance? Most important here in this case, what wer... | |
| Anyone have honest opinion of Jolida amps? Hey Pls1 you miss my point. Since both Mr. Gthrushl and Mr. Ezmerald are US citizens so are allowed to give their honest thoughts,(they seem to speak from gut feeling) you can take it or leave it. Let Mr. Dakajoba go listen for himself. If you ref... | |
| Best Kept Speaker Secret? Hey Tireguy i'm just the opposite i go for the "esoteric" if there is such a thing. Maybe Jadis qualifies as a secret which is why i got the little Orchestra as a start. I've gone "major brands", recently NAD Rotel B&W ,you can't get more bran... |
