| Use asynch. USB converter with inboard DAC? "10-05-13: TboooeHi Steve, just curious why you think external USB converters will ALWAYS beat the internal USB of DACs. Isn't that a rather overly broad statement to make? Don't get me wrong, I don't know either way but you are implying that any ... | |
| Challenge: Best $2K-ish floorstander "10-04-13: ShakeydealThey were used. I just thought the sound was average and they sounded like a very good mid fi speaker. Not exactly what I was looking for."I thought the same thing. They were good, but not great. But that's just my opinion. A ... | |
| Challenge: Best $2K-ish floorstander I had the 1.7's myself. For the most part, I didn't care for them but the one thing I did like about them was the bass. They don't go as low as a lot of other speakers do, but the bass you do get is very high quality. A good power amp will help as... | |
| ARC DS225/DS450 or stick with their tube amps? You will get the best results with Vandersteen if you go with all fully balanced, zero feedback components. It really does make a very big difference. At first, it may not seem like a big deal, but once you get all the right components, everything... | |
| Upgrade from AQ King Cobra to Columbia DBS Don't be so hard on yourself Bo. I don't know anyone that doesn't like your thoughts. Maybe your words, but definitely not your thoughts! It is that simple!!"what does one gain between the different V factors?"A headache. Just enjoy the cables and... | |
| Use asynch. USB converter with inboard DAC? I think that's a good idea. I'm probably going to do it that way myself. If you call Cable Company, they may have some units to lend you before you commit to a purchase. | |
| Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution? Yes, but with TV's, the salespeople usually adjust the TV's they want to sell as best they can, and "detune" the other ones. | |
| Speaker Upgrade Help Please It's hard to say what you will like since speakers are a very personal choice. I would look at Vandersteen, ProAc and DeVore. They all sound great and should be easy to place. Especially Vandersteen. They give you a lot of setup adjustments to wor... | |
| Krell kav-300cd transport problem You shouldn't have any problem putting a new transport in yourself. Look the unit over and see if you can find what model it is. Once you have that, you can probably find one on ebay. If not, call Krell and see if they can tell you what model tran... | |

| Need a Amp with Volume Control Sorry for trying to help. | |
| Best Speakers for 10' x 12' room? I find that with B&W, its very easy to like them at first but not over the long term. I wish I could say different because the midrange is excellent. | |
| Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution? What Musical Fidelity products are you talking about Bo1972. A few years ago, I tried a MF A3.5 integrated. I was very surprised with it. No question that is is a very powerful amp. It will drive just about anything. Also, the sound was very fast.... | |
| Need a Amp with Volume Control I just did a search for your model tv and found a picture of the rear panel. It showed fixed, variable and toslink. I'm pretty sure its the right model but here's a link to the picture. https://www.google.com/search?q=Sony+KDL+40S-4100&client=... |
