Aurum Acoustics Integris CDP I have it and have been very impressed in the 3 or so months that I have had it. Very transparent and musical and very resolute,tight bass. The bass is perhaps not as weighty as the AR CD7, but I am not lacking in any way. Superior to my old AA Ca... | |
Can any player challenge Audio Aero Prestige SE ? Hi,Sorry to hijack the thread, but Audiooracle, I have a Prestige SE, and I'm wondering what specific tweaks did you end up performing on your player to get it more analog sounding. I just got mine from Jody and am in the process of breaking it in... | |

Aurum Acoustics Integris CDP Ah023,I used a mix of solid state and tube equipment. The main system was composed of Edge power and pre amps, with the SF Strads as our main speaker. We did substitute the battery powered Edge pre with an all tube VAC. The exact model numbers are... | |
Aurum Acoustics Integris CDP I have listened to both extensively side by side and I own both players (Capitole Reference). Both are superlative players, however if I had to pick only one, I would choose the Aurum. I have listened to both players in a variety of systems includ... | |
SonusFaber & Lamm ? Wanted to know if there were any more thoughts on the Sonus Faber- Lamm combination? People speak of the synergy between Lamm and Wilson. Is the Lamm (hybrid) and SF combo as magical? I was thinking specifically of the 2.2 and the Stradivari. Any ... | |
Watt/Puppy 7 or Sophia? Hello all,Thank you for your advice, Oneobgyn and Cytocycle. I will give the 7's a second audition. It will be difficult to hear the type of sound I'm looking for as both dealers who are the closest to me (Ann Arbor and Toronto) run SS systems wit... | |
Watt/Puppy 7 or Sophia? Donbellphd,I appreciate your concern. Believe me, I never thought it would go as far as this. I still have not decided to go as far as the MAXX2 for that room, but it is a consideration and I have seen others use rooms as small as mine or smaller ... | |
Watt/Puppy 7 or Sophia? Hi GuysI've been busy...listening to a lot of speakers!Where to begin? Let's see- about 2 weeks ago, I listened to the Sophia's and W/P 7's back to back. This was with SS equipment (the Krell stuff I told you about before). I think the W/P goes hi... | |
Watt/Puppy 7 or Sophia? Thanks for your responses guys.As I have stated, I will listen to the 7's in the next week or so. I will do an A/B comparison with the Sophia's. The issue I'm having is listening to these speakers with the system I have put together.Onhwy61, I agr... | |

speaker synergy and halo jc-1's Chris, I'm going to listen to the SR's and JR's on an all BAT system tomorrow and I'll let you know how it goes. A few weeks later I'll cross the border (to MI) to listen to the Sophia's- I think they're with a Krell system.Now here's the thing- I... | |
speaker synergy and halo jc-1's Cytocycle, thanks for your response. Since you have heard both the VR's and the Sophia's, maybe you could comment on which would be the one that is more tonally coherent, the one with which you could play all types of music and not get fatigued by... | |
speaker synergy and halo jc-1's Thanks for the advice, Perfectionist. I have been reading on this forum as well as others, that the jc-1's need serious break in time- my dealer is going to run them in for me when they initially arrive. I'll move them over to my place when my sou... | |
speaker synergy and halo jc-1's Perfectionist, I am glad to finally hear from one of my fellow jc-1 owners. I haven't received them yet- about 10 days away- can't wait.I have heard the vr4jr's with BAT and Classe at a local dealer and was impressed. It remains my first choice, b... |
