| McCormack DNA 1 & Hales Revelation 3...Good Match? Thank you Kevinkwann for the kind words. Thank you very much! I am really enjoying the music coming from ths setup. Others might benefit from knowing this is a good combo. So hard to find synergy with the many audio choices out there today. I made... | |
| McCormack DNA 1 & Hales Revelation 3...Good Match? I still have a DNA-1 Deluxe(now SMcAudio Gold Edition) playing thru Hales Revelation Three loudspeakers. I'd say they have been a wonderful match! Simply incredible sound for the dollar IMHO. I enjoy listening to music everyday. | |
| McCormack DNA-1 problems Maybe the red led needs to be replaced? | |
| Ipad to replace cd player? I use a 120gb iPod Classic plugged into my Wadia 170 iTransport that is connected to my SMcAudio Revision A modified McCormack DAC-1 with a TARA Labs RSC Air 1 - 75ohm digital coax cable. I am pleased with the sonics to say the least. Sound is ver... | |
| Ipad to replace cd player? The iPad isn't really that bad is it? I use Discovery Essence interconnect and a cheap Hosa RCA to 3.5mm stereo adapter to connect my preamp to my iPad. I play Pandora or whatever off of the iPad, and I think it sounds pretty good for what it is. ... | |
| Best phono preamp under $500? I will put my vote in for a used Bottlehead Seduction with C4 mod and Amperex "bugle boy" 6dj8. Hard to beat for the money IMHO. Good luck! | |
| woofer excursion at start of lp I am also thinking the resonations are being caused by a grounding issue. Try tightening the ground wire on the preamp. Does your turntables speed control also have a ground lug? | |
| McCormack , Aragon or Forte Let em play for three or four days and then go in and sit down for a listen. You will be smiling! BTW, the Kaplan Cable HE power cable sounds real nice with the RLD-1 IMO. | |
| McCormack , Aragon or Forte That's nice equipment Brian! Congrats! The DNA-.5 is incredible. One of the most exiting SS amps I have had the pleasure to listen to. At some point, consider SMcAudio upgrades! | |
| McCormack , Aragon or Forte One more vote for McCormack amplifiers ...they are capable of multidimensional lifelike sound. With SMcAudio upgrades, non of the other amps mentioned will compare. Good luck and enjoy! | |
| My grandfather needs some suggestions for speakers Yep, it's pretty obvious to most that I understand your point Rlwainwright. The Polk speakers are far from the best and most exiting speakers available in this gentleman's price range. The OP wants some new speakers for Granddad and the Polks may ... | |
| My grandfather needs some suggestions for speakers Here is another speaker suggestion for your grandfather... I also have experience with the Revel Performa F30 loudspeakers. There is a pair for sale here on Agon. I enjoyed the sound from these as well, and IMO these are hard to beat for the selle... | |
| My grandfather needs some suggestions for speakers Another suggestion for you grandfather... I have experience with the Revel Performa F30 loudspeakers, also for sale here on Agon. I enjoyed the sound from these as well and IMO these are hard to beat for the sellers asking price. Have fun with it ... | |
| Cable suggestion Hi Jay, take a look at the ESI Juli@. $150. | |
| My grandfather needs some suggestions for speakers Also a nice pair of Vandersteen 3a Signature edition on USAudioMart at a good price! |
