| Gryphon Diablo 300: at the top of Integrated Amps? Esoteric F-03A seems, err, kind of interesting. | |
| A Must Hear under $5,000 Seems like the ELAC Adante is the new kid on the block. | |
| power conditioner Several balanced options: Equi=tech, Torus, Furman (not the inexpensive models).Other technologies: PS Audio, Shunyata, Audioquest, Isotek, etc.Never really seen a comprehensive, side-by-side comparison.But then, who’s to say what would work best ... | |
| Newbie here again with a follow up Speaker question Just wondering why you're not looking at all the speakers listed on A'gon. | |
| Which attributes do you value most? I've always understood "timbre" to refer to a realistic portrayal of that particular combination/permutation of tones and overtones that makes one instrument sound different from another, so that we can distinguish between a Gibson and a Fender or... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Looks like things are slowly moving forward with the possible shipment of Deep Core.So are glaciers. | |
| Newbee building a retro sound system from scratch. DCM speakers I used to live in Ann Arbor, and had an opportunity once to get some Time Frame TF500s at a good price. I dithered (I was poor!), and when I made up my mind and went back, they were gone. Much regretted, I was always very impressed with DCM bac... | |
| Acrolink Cables, anyone heard them? I have some pretty ancient 8N-A2080 interconnects in my principal system. Sound better than anything else I've tried. In the sense that there's really very little sound signature. Smooth, and definitely not bright. | |
| KEF, ProAc, Monitor Audio and others @milpai Can we get back to the original topic?Seconded!And @bo1972 , unless you're prepared to list in detail every component in these supposed 3D-systems, all electronics, speakers, and cables, could you just start your own 3D thread and post in ... | |
| Hegel Mohican vs. Bryston BCD-3 @audiotroy This is one of the most common problems with Audiogon threads. The OP asks a question that is framed in such a way that it has particular relevance to himself. Along come the other posters and all too often the response is: (a) inste... | |
| Amps or Speakers which one to upgrade next While Rogue may be a "value brand", as I and many other contented owners have discovered, it offers not only bang for the buck but also very good sound in absolute terms. My CMII is driving PMC twenty.24's. My point is that if you were to buy $7... | |
| Need recommendation for CD transport (not Cambridge) @lordcloud The "advisor" wasn't specific, but you could tell he wasn't too enthusiastic about it. I might have considered the Cyrus, but I'm irrationally prejudiced against slot-loading machines. I don't remember if I considered the Bel Canto. | |
| Whats in your second system? As with most others, components that were displaced from the primary system (Ayre AX-7, ProAc Response 2.5), or newer pieces that failed to displace the existing component (Cambridge transport, Schiit Gungnir). | |
| Need recommendation for CD transport (not Cambridge) Are you in the US or UK? | |
| Speaker Placement Priority - wall clearance or perfect equilateral If you have the speakers closer to the side walls and toe them in more, to maintain the same vertex/crossing point, this will ameliorate to some extent the negative effects of the reflections from the walls. |
