| Luxman D-06u or Esoteric K-05Xs CD / SACD player? And check out the current thread on a 'goner trying to get service for his Esoteric. | |
| Any insight on Tekton Double impact BE, Focus Se, Salk SS 8, or Golden Ear TRef? As a PMC Twenty.24 owner, I was impressed by the bass coming out of the modestly sized regular Song3’s, and of course the Encore has the significantly bigger woofer (same company) and corresponding enclosure. | |
| A comparison between two DACs, one R-2R, the other ES 9038-based. I thought this was first posted in a discussion of the CDT-8 over on AudioCircle, but a quick google search doesn't bring it up. | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA Agreed.And furthermore: just because a unit doesn't hum (or whatever) in one location (be that the dealer's or elsewhere), it shouldn't hum in most domestic locations. Humming there is an indication of either an imperfect design or a faulty unit.... | |
| A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars? OK, how about an Aesthetix Mimas. Another great product. | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? Any company that calls itself "Class D" has to feel pretty confident and secure in the quality of their products. Just sayin'. | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" The smaller the company and the more "new models" they crank out in short order, the more you've got to question how much of a "technological breakthrough" each one of them actually represents, however much of an audio genius the sole owner/design... | |
| Luxman D-06u or Esoteric K-05Xs CD / SACD player? There is no simple "better". They will sound different. The Luxman will be more relaxed and "musical", the Esoteric more detailed and "accurate". | |
| Any insight on Tekton Double impact BE, Focus Se, Salk SS 8, or Golden Ear TRef? Don't rule out either the Salk Song 3 Encore. They are a very fine speaker. | |
| Cary SLI 80 crumped You won't regret. I own the aria x3 set-up, and have been extremely pleased with them. | |
| Confused State of affairs: CD player if you want a quality integrated unit, you should be looking at Esoteric, Luxman, Marantz, Primare, Bryston, rather than Mac. | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" @d2girls It's not just the dust you have to worry about when returning; any fingerprints will bring an even greater deduction from the refund. | |
| A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars? http://rogershighfidelity.com/portfolio-type/34s-1-integrated-amplifier/ This will do the trick and then some. | |
| SW1X Audio Design DAC II Absolute Top Tier Ref NOS DAC @wig Can you report? | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados No. 2 seems much more put together, if still very "virtuoso" in style. I'm really enjoying Cecile Licad's playing, beautifully delicate in the quieter passages, accompanied by Mr Previn. |
