| Another audio dealer closes his shop Phaelon,"My apologies to the exceptions but, in general, I have so little sympathy for audio dealers that I just couldnÂt care less. In my experience, this industry attracts too many hustlers who see a potential for huge unearned profits, and hav... | |
| parasound versus bryston4bsst or krell For ceiling speakers, the above amps may be overkill for the application. Any one of them will be more than enough. You may also want to consider going with something like an Emotiva UPA-700 or UPA-500. That should work just as well and save you a... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Vs. Von Schweikert VR-2100 "B limo, Which 2Ci do you have? If you have the soft dome tweeter they are very old speakers and there is a good chance they are not working properly. Imaging should not be an issue with Vandersteens unless your drivers are not matched."I have to ... | |
| Need advice on CLX surround system If you can't do it right, don't do it at all. | |
| Good value solid core? Audioquest Type 6 or 8. | |
| Will Parasound A21 damage my NHT? "Will Parasound A21 damage my NHT?"No | |
| How to evaluate CD DAC vs. outboard DAC quality "So the question is: How can you know whether a recently released DAC (say around $1000-$1500) will be a useful add-on? I'm not looking for the flippant and unhelpful try-it-for-yourself-and-see response."I understand that you are not looking for ... | |
| Cables more hype than value? I think the real problem here is that people on both sides of the argument are letting their emotions dictate where all of this is going. As the thread goes on, everyone just gets more aggravated and the insults keep piling up; on both sides."Here... | |
| BEL 1001 Mk V stock power cables I believe that they're just generic cables. | |
| My turntable hates Cat Stevens "I'm new to the lp side of things so I did not know this. I have the same album in hi def FLAC download and there is no sibalance. Good to know."I understand that it is the same album, but is the same version, as well? For example, one copy of the... | |
| upgradeable dacs Audioengr,I know quite a few people who don't like upsampling, as well. So far, I personally tend to prefer it but I have heard some very good sound from non upsampling players also. When I say that Redbook is a mature format, I don't mean that in... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Vs. Von Schweikert VR-2100 I should have addressed this in my first response. It has to do with Roscoeiii's comments above. I have absolutely no idea how anyone could come up with that description. I'm not trying to be rude or find fault but I don't know anyone that knows V... | |
| upgradeable dacs What formats are we talking about here? If its just redbook, I'm not sure how much more designers are going to get out of it. Its a pretty mature format. As far as everything else goes, I wouldn't get too worked up over it. If you buy something th... | |
| Best AV processors for under $10K I have to agree with Mezmo. If you want to have the best of both worlds you really need to get HT equipment with some type of passthrough and use 2 channel equipment for audio. I've never heard any type of theatre equipment that can compete with r... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Vs. Von Schweikert VR-2100 My first choice would be the Vandersteen. I've tried many different brands, and for me, they are the best. The VS's are excellent as well. I think they are both very good choices. You will probably find that the Vandersteen is a more detailed and ... |
