| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Not to be an sa-14 cheerleader, but its redbook was compared to the benchmark dac1 as being very, very close, a dac rated as first rate by every pro reviewer and recording engineer to get there hands on it. John Marks used it as a cornerstone sugg... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 PS, try placing the SA-14 on a partially inflated small bicycle innertube. It does wonderous things. This machine needs good to great isolation to really shine... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 SA-14 weak in the bass? You're kidding, right? It thought it had a ton of very deep, slamming bass, a perfect machine for electronic music. I also think the SA-14 is by far a better machine then any of the flagship sony's, being very near analog o... | |
| How good is Benchmark DAC1 comparing to...... Zaikesman, you took 3 pages and probably a week of manipulation of your setup to hear what I heard under normal listening and a/b conditions, and we came to essentially the same results. What makes your method superior if folks can come to the sam... | |
| How good is Benchmark DAC1 comparing to...... I had the MSB Nelson w/PB and upsampling many moons agoand it's not nearly as good as the Benchmark Dac1.

| How good is Benchmark DAC1 comparing to...... Man, this is too easy, but here it goes anyways, as its a lazy sunday and Im ripping hundreds of CDs to my hard drives: You say first "The behaviour of both yourself and Uva in attacking my posts" (ie., in merely disagreeing with YOU) is unacce... | |
| How good is Benchmark DAC1 comparing to...... Redkiwi, your only posts to this forum lately have been to belittle this product and tout what YOU own as the best piece for EVERYONE. You declare it a set in stone fact that the piece you own is superior to this product, and everyone must agree w... | |

| iPod to DAC For those looking at iPods, look at the iRiver hp120 and 140's before buying. Much better sound from the headphone jack AND it has a digital output! I compared the iPod, iRiver, Samsung and Creative 20-40GB machines with the same headphones, same ... | |
| Denon 3910 Universal Player - Opinions? "SACD performance is not as good as Marantz SA-1 or Sony SCD-1, better than Marantz SA-14, XA-777ES"Interestingly, I thought the SA-14 killed the Sony SCD1 and XA777es on redbook and bettered them in SACD playback, and have a few friends that have... |
