Arcam CD73t or Rega Planet 2000 I have had both in my system.I do not think that the Arcam 73t is more 'detailed' than the Rega Planet 2000. I think that the detail levels they retrieve are similar, but that the presentation of the Rega is subtler and can give the impression of ... | |
Quad L22 or Castle Cornway to replace B&W N805 http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.mpl?forum=speakers&n=191927 Here is a thread with an individual who was weighing the 21L vs the 22L, my comments are in the thread, but of special note is "duckman's" as he owns both the 21L and the 22L and has ... | |
Gamut CD1 Mk.2: Anyone own or listened to it? I have heard this unit and significantly prefer the Bluenote Stibbert. | |

Quad L22 or Castle Cornway to replace B&W N805 Just a quick note to Bcgator the 22L is the worst of the Quad line. If you look where its crossed over compared to the rest of the line it will have some problems the rest of the line simply does not have.A fellow inmate on the Audio Asylum who ow... | |
How Important Is The Cdp? Oops one more thing I forgot to add.The Toshiba is incredibly sensitive to electricity quality.I have two outlets near my stereo setup. After some re-arranging I had noticed that my soundstage had fallen flat , there was little depth to the record... | |
How Important Is The Cdp? I have the 3950 in my system. It was an improvement over my Pioneer DV-353.However.When compared to the AMC CD8b, Cambridge Audio Azur 640c, Arcam 73t, Rega Planet 2000, Creek CD50mk1, or Cary 308. It falls completely flat. I have had all of these... | |
Quad L22 or Castle Cornway to replace B&W N805 You could pickup a used processor and stick with a proper two channel amp and be much happier I think. I have not been happy with most receiver's performance but perhaps that is a personal issue.I think that the 21L with a Sub would be much better... | |
QUAD 21L or 22L opinions please punch them in I would go with two 21Ls in front and the 12Ls in the back and at that point see if you need a sub.The new Quad Sub is getting good reviews in the british press right now but you may not need it once your 21Ls burn in.I think you posted on AA as w... | |

Cambridge 640c output voltage? I have used the 640c with a Passive Pre-Amp (FT Audio's LW1S2) with no difficulties, so the output is likely north of 2.5v. | |
Quad 11L or B&W 601 S3? I also chose Quads over the B&Ws and Paradigm Reference 20s. I own the 21Ls myself which are 'quicker' than the 22s and go lower than the 12Ls.Your distance off the backwall is fine for the 12Ls but would be a bit too close for the 21s. The Qu... | |
Rotel 1072 & Arcam 73 comparison Vertewax if you get a chance to read my review of the Arcam 73t let me know. I, personally, am all about PRAT. And where I found the Arcam 73T to fall flat on its face was in this regards in the 'upper frequencies' We had a track we used from Tort... | |
