| Best speaker choice under $1000? I agree with Soix's recommendation of Monitor Audio. Their silver series is a great all around speaker. I used to have a pair myself. They do an excellent job with making a metal tweeter listenable; especially at the price point. Compared to my re... | |
| Potential DAQuestion - Tube preamps and Buffers Just to clarify, I'm not suggesting that you should definitely keep your dac. My advice is to just make sure its the right move, for you. The only thing that's worse than buying a bad piece of audio component is selling a really good one. I admit,... | |

| Power chord for Jadis D50Signature Its very hard to get good, reliable advice on a power cord. Even if you have 2 systems that are exactly the same, your AC won't be. Given that, its really mandatory that you audition power cords in your own system.If, for some reason, you have to ... | |
| Tube Pre-Amp Recommendation Given your description of what you are trying to achieve, you would probably like an Aesthetix Calypso. I like it better than the ARC myself. | |
| dvd player suitable as cd transport Your RT 20 will work as a transport. As far as to how good it will sound, I'm not sure. My best guess is that it will sound OK. At the very least you can use it temporarily in your system until you decide to get a new transport, or not. | |

The Resolution Opus 21 will accept an S/PDIF signal up to 96KHz, but I think I'd like to upgrade, at least for the computer connection."The Opus 21 is an excellent dac. I would do a very good, side by sid... | |
| Please critique my Delphi set up, bass not right Alberta_steve,I have a pretty good idea as to what you are talking about. I had the 802 Matrix S3's. They are very similar to the 801's. I believe the mid and hf drivers are the same. The speakers have a great midrange. Its very clean and fast &am... | |
| Potential DAQuestion - Tube preamps and Buffers I don't think your electronics are at fault. Magnepan speakers can often sound very bright. I my opinion, buying other components to use as an EQ is not a good idea. Its very difficult to do. Basically, You're just guessing what may work and hopin... | |
| B&W 802 Series 2 Replacement Woofers? Is it the lower woofer on the right speaker? | |
| Best speaker choice under $1000? Sufentanil, Your recommendations do make much more sense if you thought R&B and not rap. As far as PSB goes, thats just my own personal opinion and others may feel different. To be honest, I think most, if not all, of API's Products have that ... | |
| interconnects for Jeff Rowland Capri and 201s Erictye,Sorry if I didn't get your post correctly. My intention was not to offend at all. I've had some Rowland gear in the past. Audioquest worked very well. Not only that, they work very well with just about anything. Phous recommends Cardas. Gr... | |

| Looking for Schematic; QUICKSILVERS MID-MONO Why not just call Quicksilver, they should have it? | |
| Best speaker choice under $1000? For me it would be a very easy choice. Get a pair of Vandersteen Model 1's. For what you are looking to do, its the perfect speaker. Its also very efficient and will work very well with your Manantz. It's really hard to screw up with a pair of Mod... |
