| Anyone compared NAD and Cambridge Intergrateds? Phil,I wonder if a universal remote would work? Volume is all me Dad needs. | |
| Anyone compared NAD and Cambridge Intergrateds? Thanks to everyone! This is what makes audiogon great! I've had a number pm's and also read the TAS and What HiFi reviews. Opinions are pretty uniform so I think I can now make a good bet. We're going with the 326BEE. I know Cambridge makes good d... | |
| Anyone compared NAD and Cambridge Intergrateds? Thanks Phil. I keep hearing good things about the" bang for buck" factor of the 326. | |
| All time favorite speaker cables Milpai,You get no argument from me that wire is system dependent. There are also many over-priced cables on the market. Some systems are revealing enough that cable differences are easily heard. There will always be a divergence of opinion as to t... | |
| All time favorite speaker cables There isn't a professional music production studio in the world that uses zip cord, and many of those facilities are constantly looking for ways to cut costs. If all wire were the same, they'd be using spools of Lowe's 18-guage. The people who act... | |
| Bidat vs. Perfecwave MSB Playback Design Doug,I and a number of people I know with $5,000 plus dacs, prefer a high quality preamp over even the best "attenuator" or digital volume control set ups out there. As for the rest of your post, I'm not sure what equipment you're referring to. HI... | |
| All time favorite speaker cables Milpai,I am quoted on their site, which came as a bit of a surprise when I found out. I have no connection to them, other than as a customer. I only know that my one-meter RCA interconnects list for $1495 and my 8-foot speaker cables list for $249... | |
| All time favorite speaker cables Shunyata Research just released (2011) new line of speaker cables. I have the Pythons. The beat every cable I've ever heard including the Nordost Odin's. Watch out when reviewers finally hear these. The new speaker cables are twice as effective as... | |
| Has anyone tried the new Shunyata interconnects? It's always a good idea to take advantage of discounts on older lines when Shunyata releases an upgrade. I never auditioned their previous wire. I *will* say this: the Pythons utterly destroyed my previous reference cables, which cost $2K for an 8... | |
| Has anyone tried the new Shunyata interconnects? I have the new Python interconnects and speaker cables. I was very skeptical as well. They are more transformative in my system than any single Shunyata Power cord and I own the Anaconda CX's. I hear increased transparency, detail, bass, better PR... | |
| Bidat vs. Perfecwave MSB Playback Design I'd like to weigh in here that I replaced my beloved Bidat with the Perfect Wave transport and DAC. If anyone is considering this combo, which I heartily endorse, you should be sure to do several things, otherwise your experience may not be positi... | |
| Need Help Choosing a Tube Preamp for a Classe Amp I ended up going with a conrad-johnson CT5. The teflon capacitors are amazing and the single triode approach was a nice match as well...just enough tube romance without sacrificing detail. | |
| Best Transport with Museatex Bitstream DAC After some extensive listening, I have to post here that I think the PS Audio Perfect Wave transport is the best transport I've ever heard with a Bitstream or Bidat. I could detect no jitter and it's more liquid and analog-sounding than anything I... | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat Ditto. I think the Blackgates are special..but am eager to hear your impressions. The analaog stage of digital is as critical to outcome as the chips used, IMHO. | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Mike1000,I think it's a very fine DAC for the money and certainly better than some out there that are going for a lot more. I never heard how it handled hi rez, though. Based upon what I've heard, I doubt there are many (any?) sub $5,000 players, ... |
