| Musical fidelity Nu Vista M3 vs Ayre AX-7e Bo1972,I get the fact that you can hear the difference between components. That said, your post is a little vague. You're not comparing the 2 brands to some type of reference. You say they are good, but not exceptional. What's exceptional? Not onl... | |
| Lots of detail, great imaging, not much bass? "With a budget of $700 for used, I would recommend you listen to some smaller Proacs, maybe some of the Tablettes and if you can find a 1SC (great speaker) near your price level."That would have been my first choice but I think it will be hard to ... | |
| Musical fidelity Nu Vista M3 vs Ayre AX-7e Bo1972,What are you talking about? | |
| Shunyata Hydra I don't think he was saying that all power cords and line conditioners don't work, it was just the Shunyata products. | |
| Musical fidelity Nu Vista M3 vs Ayre AX-7e Its a very hard question to answer. I've had both brands and can say that they sound very different from each other. Personally, I think Ayre is much better. Thats what I currently use. If I were you, I would try to listen to some Ayre gear first.... | |
| Shunyata Hydra A few things. 1. On the lower end PC's I agree with you. Waste of $. On their best cables, I do notice a difference but you can do better for less money. 2. If there was ever a case to be made about The Cable Co, this is it. What were you thinking... | |
| Audio Note M6 - dark and thick sound ? I posted in your other thread yesterday and I just came across this one. I can add a couple of things. Aside from using 2 preamps, which can't be a good thing, Naim is one of those brands that insist you use one of their preamps with their amps. S... | |
| New Rega Apollo-R Sunnyjim,Its just as likely that people that already own the Apollo-R are reading the reviews and then selling them because of the negative comments in the review. (Just to note, I don't read reviews, so I'm going on the info in your post, and not... | |
| Low gain power amp to match the Audio Note M6 pre I used to have a Nait 5i. I don't remember it having a pre input. If you are just connecting it to a line level input, thats the problem. You're using 2 preamps. | |
| Anyone try this way to wire your loudspeakers? "ZD542 I presume based on the OP's post that he has tried standard shotgun config"Most likely he did. I was just interested as to what the differences were. | |
| Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated I agree that the VTL 2.5 that Noble100 recommends and owns is an excellent choice. Its very underrated. | |
| 4-500 $ cartridge for Project Debut Carbon ? Mulveling,"Don't even think about an MC with the Debut's stock metal platter; it will attract the MC's magnet and could crush the cantilever. You'll need the acrylic platter if you wish to play with MC carts, and your phono stage will need adequat... | |
| Anyone try this way to wire your loudspeakers? "I have often wondered about my use of $3000 speaker cables when the wire connecting the speaker binding posts to the drivers is basic hardware store wire."Good speakers use good wires. Maybe its time to upgrade.Ranchomirage,That's an interesting ... | |
| Rega DAC: Cable suggestions If you just got it, its probably not broken in yet. Also, the IC's going from the dac to your preamp may make a bigger difference than the digital cable. | |
| Where is my problem ? Jameswei is right. Also, there may be no problem at all. If the image of whatever you are listening to is not exactly center, then the volume/loudness will be different for each channel. For example, if the trumpet you are listening too is to the ... |
