| power-amp for magnepan tympani 1-d Many years ago, I had used the Crown 300 with the 1-D speakers. As the years have passed I have had many other speakers from Magnepan..1.6, 3.6 and the 20. I have had good results from VAC, Classe, Audio Research and others with these Magnepans. I... | |
| best cables for Classe & Martin Logan Wireworld Gold Eclipse III or Eclipse III. Just find a dealer that will loan you these...and try with your favorite female vocal. | |
| Need help on one box CD player. The SimAudio Celeste is superb. Also, consider the DVD player-24/96 DAC route...such as the Bel Canto DAC-1. Best of luck | |
| Tuner Questions I had not seen the original. But FM is an excellent topic. With a proper tuner, FM is truly a "source". I have been lucky enough to use many tuners over the years. From the Yamaha T-2 and CT-7000, to various others (including the vastly under-rate... | |
| Bel Canto Dac1 What are you using as a transport, digital cable and cables out of the DAC-1? Thanks, Jim | |
| Bel Canto DAC1 or MSB Link III There is really not enough 24/96 software available to be overly concerned about. With the Bel Canto DAC-1, the Sony 7000 or 7700 DVD players are suberb transports...and the Nordost Silver Shadow Coax to the DAC-1 will give excellent results. The ... | |
| Does anyone know if neutral cables exist All of the above responses are excellent. The idea of keeping the cables (inc. speaker cables) short is correct. I have been lucky enough to have many of the most well thought of brands and models. My experience leads to the Nordost Quattrofil's a... | |
| Worst Rock Band Ever !!!! I think so far we just have a sample of the posible bands that should be included. Starting in the '50s, but really taking off in the '70s....the marketing of a group began to have more to do with success than talent. Remember Milli- Vanilli (SP?)... | |
| Power Cords Sometimes the point is missed. Hearing a difference in power cords is not like hearing a difference in interconnects. Your system runs off of the AC outlets in your home. The electrical wire in you home (many yards of it) is, by far, the largest F... | |
| Best Vanishing speakers Magnepan MG-20 | |
| Maggie 3.6 versus 3.5 Magnepan speakers are a musical pleasure, any model. I have had several models over the last 20+ years. In the rush to praise the 1.6 and 3.6 (both of which deserve the praise) , some of the other and/or older models have been a bit forgotten abou... | |
| Sim Audio I5 vs Classe CAP 151 Integ Amp This is a P.S. to my, above, comments. I left out another choice for your to consider. The new Magnum Dynalab MD-208 receiver is part SimAudio and part Etude+ tuner. This unit is rated 100 watts into 8 ohm...and being transistor.. ..is more into 4... | |
| Sim Audio I5 vs Classe CAP 151 Integ Amp Both of these are excellent. What speakers, source and cables are you using..or will you use? The answers to these questions may point to which of these would be best. As far as power, remember that to get a 2 to 3 db. gain power needs to double, ... | |
| Best Cd Player for $2000 used I have been lucky enough to have the Sony Xa-7Es, the Classe CDP-1, ARC CD-2 and Levinson 39 over the last three or so years. All of these are very good players. The ARC CD-2 was, perhaps, the best balanced overall, and the Classe the most romanti... | |
