Has anyone used an Input splitter? Radio Shack does have a really nice switch box. The slightly more expensive one even has a remote. It you want something more sophisticated, try www.copperbox.com | |
Surprised by quality? Go ahead and treat yourself to "The Blues'. I really am a bit too picky when it comes to quality CDs. Not that i don't really mind the average quality CDs; it is just that I can really appreciate the good ones.One of the greatest things about bein... | |
best sounding DVD transport? What, exactly is limited about her additions(sp?). Anyway, Majames askes a really good question. I am also interested in other suggestions. | |
Surprised by quality? The opposite is also true. Once you get decent components you will be very disappointed in the quality of many CDs. The same recordings remastered on differant labelsis quite the eye-opener!For instance there is a box set released by Motown of all... | |
Advice: CD player w/volume control around $5K used Okay, here it comes: Listen to The Tireguy and Majames. | |
Audio Logic v. Audio Note v. Audio Aero v. Audiome I posted earlier on another version of this thread. To answer your later question I again echo Mejames on the Audio Aero as a great one-box solution at it already has a great transport and DAC and it is a Cd player. When you asked about a $7,000.0... | |
Audio Logic v. Audio Note v. Audio Aero v. Audiome The Audio Aero is probably the best 'one box' DAC of the bunch. I don't know if it would fit into your system. It could easily also take the place of your pre and you would get an improvement. If you were to reach for this unit, try to get the lat... | |
Which Tube Amp? i strongly second Ljgi on the McIntosh 2102.I spotted some of them available at a local authorized McIntosh outlet selling for just under $5,000.00 with full warrenty. I don't know how universal this discount is but the 2102 is worth every penny e... | |
B&W Nautilus 800's vs my Tannoy D-700's ??? I could not agree with you more. | |
Speakers that accurately reproduce a drumset Unsound has it right. It must begin with the recording. I was using a system test CD a while ago and it included a bit on percussion. I had no idea my system could sound so good!Oh, Kef Referance speakers. | |
Words From the Wise Don't let signal degradation get in the way of buying a simple switch box; plugging/unplugging just to get the tuner 'on line' is really quite silly. | |
Sam loves the McIntosh MCD205. Do You? I wanted to build my whole system around a MC 2102 tube amp and I really liked the idea of using McIntosh for everything. It is designed to work best with the one remote.I just couldn't talk myself into it. I almost bought Tannoy speakers, but fin... | |
A serious blow to Canadian audiophiles, must read I caught a bit of this on PBS and the commentary had to do with such regulation being more in the scope of the Provinces. Sorry, it was only the last of the piece. But if this is true, wouldn't you folks be better off, all things considered, than ... | |
Any Muddy Water acoustics CDs out there? I have been watching this thread for a few days. The problem is that I loaned my most recent Muddy Waters aquisition to a friend and I only just got it back today.It is called 'Muddy & the Wolf'guest artists include Eric clapton, steve Winwood... | |
Aero Capitole as pre-amp for Spectral DMA-150? I would tend to agree with Vader. You might try asking Darryll at digital systems. He repairs Audio Aero gear and, if I am not mystaken, he has some experience with other units. I did a search on him and there is certainly more to him than Audio A... |
