| Paradigm Persona series The 40.2's sounded very, very good with CJ preamp and amp at CAF.The Vinnie Rossi preamp+monoblock combo is by all accounts very good (and should be, at its price), so I'm sure this is right. | |
| One speaker observation from the New York Hifi show. Almost without exception, if you pull the speakers further out, you'll get a greater depth of soundstage.(And for me that's important--I like speakers where the front plane of the soundstage is at or even a little behind the drivers, and where the... | |
| Anyone compared GoldenEar Triton 7 with Triton Reference? I know this opens a can of worms, but, why do you want to stick with GE?There's a chaotic, confusing world of myriad speakers out there. | |
| Any reviews of anticable power cables? You're not just limited to those two. There are plenty of woven power cables at different price points. See Russ Andrews, LessLoss; others will chime in with other manufacturers. | |
| Classical composers, symphonies @mamboni Pulled the Unicorn-Kanchana and Chandos off the shelf. How many other Audiogoners have 2 recordings of Gliere #3, I wonder. I checked the two Farberman CDs and visually they look OK. Haven't listened in a while, so must remedy that. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Moscheles concerto #3. The older Supraphon recording, rather than Hyperion. Surprising enjoyable. Mozart meets Romanticism. | |
| One speaker observation from the New York Hifi show. Toe-in or lack of same is also very often used to tame or heighten the treble. It all depends on the tweeter’s lateral performance and how much output drops off off-axis. To some degree this may outweigh imaging. Also, I think some speakers are sp... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? At least that suggests (though doesn't prove) he's still in the country. Mobilize now, while you still can! | |
| What are you streaming tonight? BJH. There's a blast from the past. I actually saw them live in concert several eons ago. Must root out the LP from the archives. "Mockingbird", wasn't it? | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? Also does anyone know if this Nuprime makes the Schiit Gungnir click on Pause? | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? Yes, that was already identified by @celander back on page 1. I've now identified the tray and clamper. So far everything is Philips-sourced. | |
| Thinking about a new, lower end CD Player Onkyo, Cambridge, NAD, Yamaha, Marantz, Denon, if you're buying new. Some pretty decent choices there. | |
| Am I the only one wiht speaker cozys ? Reference 3A had the right idea with Nextel. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Answer: Weber. Rosel/Blomstedt. Very enjoyable, but not transcendent. BTW, can you believe that the Hyperion Romantic Piano Concerto series is up to 77? Takes the notion of completist to a whole new level... | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? Well, here's the tray and clamper and who knows what other parts identified, at least. Philips DVDhttps://sparedparts.com/products/philips_dvd_loader_complete_996510010819_996510017573 |
