| Ortofon Jubilee vs. Dynavector XX-2 Mk. 2 Haven't heard the Jubilee, but I own a Dyna XX-2 and am very happy with it. Doesn't do anything wrong and the clarity combined with smoothness, dynamics, musicality, silence in the grooves and bass repsonse leave little to be desired. | |
| The New BAT REX preamp I heard it last night at a local retailer's audio show. It was running into a VK-75SE and a pair of Hansen Prince speakers. Very quiet background and very dynamic with great slam. | |
| Simaudio Moon P-8 vs. Krell KCT I have heard both, although not side by side. I currently own a KCT as it is connected via CAST to my 700cx amp. It is a great pre-amp, however, the two box Simaudio in my opinion represents another leap forward. Also, the Krell generates a lot of... | |
| Krell KPS 28c vs SACD Standard I've auditioned both in my all-Krell system. The KPS28C is superior for redbook playback with better dynamics and bass weight. Obviously, the two can't be compared on SACD, but since I am not an SACD collector, I would give the nod to the KPS28c. ... | |
| Simaudio Phono Stage I own one....it's a tubey sound...very detailed in the midrange without any trace of harshness. Smooth and open. | |
| PS Audio's Digital Link III DAC I ordered one. It's better than the internal DAC on my Rotel DVD player but not by much. It probably deserves to be paired with a better quality transport. You might look at a good single box player. | |
| Any comments about PS Audio GCPH Phono Stage? I bought one after auditioning several other phono stages:1.) Acoustech PH-12.) Project Tube-box3.) Krell KPE standard4.) Project Phono-boxFor my system, it was the best match. Very musical, yet detailed, but not overly so in either direction. Ver... | |
| NEW dCS P 8i cd-player Bland....will make you want to spin vinyl again. It homogenizes all your discs so they sound alike..lifeless and colored. Honest. | |
| Anybody hear the new DCS P8i? Not worth it...sorry. I would rather own almost anything but that player. For $14K, it oughta be killer. | |
| Denon 3910 Universal Player - Opinions? I borrowed a Denon 3910 from a local retailer for a few days. Hooked it up to my Krell Class A system. It was a letdown in the audio department. Granted, the picture quality was first class. However, the sound quality was boomy in the bass, muddy ... | |
| Krell SACD standard Better than most budget players in terms of sound quality but certainly not comparable to real high end stuff, plus the build quality is only average. | |
| Krell sacd standard Better than most players out there...sound somewhere along the lines of the Esoteric DV-50..however, the build quality, particularly the disc transport is sub-par | |
| Speakers that work in a medium room to match Krell Check the Dyanudios: C2 or C4. Excellent wiht Krell amps. Smooth, detailed and musical. Imaging first rate | |
| Lindemann vs Theta vs Krell I auditioned the Esoteric DV-50 at home and I'm not sure what the hype is about. It sounds like a 1980 Japanese player with hard treble and thin sound. For SACD or CD it was trounced by my PS Audio Lambda/Ultralink. | |
| KRELL SACD or TEAC Esoteric DV-50 I auditioned the Esoteric DV-50 and thought it's way overrated. The sound was thin, digital and tinny, like most Japanese digital. I have also heard a Krell KPS28c in my system and it was marvelous. I understand the SACD Standard is derived from i... |
