Small speaker advice @OP A pair of Wilson Sabrinas will work in a room that size. | |
I Sold my CD Player!!! Streaming sounds so incredible!!! Something, I don’t think mentioned so far is that the recording of music has been radically democratised in recent times and that’s been complemented by musicians’ access to streaming platforms. If you’re the average musician, there’s no money to... | |
High end bookshelf speakers for Small room Bowers and Wilkins 805D4 Signature. Not a particular preference of mine but they fit the OP's stated sonic preferences. | |
Questions re. use of an Innuos unit with a Tambaqui @OP A quality streamer makes a substantial difference, but if you are not that interested in streaming from the internet, then spending a large sum of money on a streamer seems of dubious benefit. One option is to use a PC for storage and delivery... | |
FEZZ audio @OP Red Dot is an industrial design award. It has nothing to do with sound quality. | |
Word clock @jasonbourne71 - have you actually listened to any transport/dac that has the capacity to use an external clock? @OP - just for information, DCS and Esoteric’s approach to clocking is different - DCS’s clock outputs are at the base sampling frequ... | |
Cartridge upgrade @OP The Marantz is a effectively an entry level Clearaudio using technology from their earlier decks. Putting a cartridge priced at the level of the Kiseki on it is overkill. As a point of reference, you should have a listen to the new Concept Sig... | |
Quality of recording while evaluating speakers Another emergingsoul thread that's a series of statements purporting to be a question. | |
SACD/CD Drive Mechanism Replacement Hello, Don. I was referring to the Esoteric K series in saying that they use the VRDS mechanism. The VSOP was an older Teac/Esoteric OEM mechanism. If you are buying secondhand, it will be a non SE version of the K series as the SE has only just ... | |
SACD/CD Drive Mechanism Replacement @OP Sorry to be pedantic, but the Esoteric mechanism you are referring to is the VRDS not VSOP - which is a cognac designation. Around the time (or slightly before) when Esoteric replaced the VRDS with the Atlas, they stopped supplying transport... | |
Modern Covers of Classics Birelli Lagrene and Sylvain Luc's instrumental cover of Cyndi Lauper's Time after Time is worth a listen - outstanding guitar recording as well. | |
SACD/CD Drive Mechanism Replacement @OP. You probably have a better chance of getting a laser replaced in an Esoteric product than most machines, given the size of Teac/Tascam/Esoteric. However, you will probably need to get an official Esoteric service agent to supply and fit it. I... | |
Do high dollar mono blocks truly improve the Sound Quality over the mid tier amps @OP Replacing your XP-27 with an XP-32 would probably be a better value improvement. | |
Kenny Burrell's album Midnight Blue @OP - your connections were correct before the change. The guitar should be on the left. There is no absolutely foolproof way just from recordings to know whether the channels are connected correctly - except to use a channel identification test ... | |
Modern Covers of Classics Karen Elson's Radio Redhead EP - outstanding. |
