| Questions about SACD vs.analog for classical music Robm321: What "fractoinally" priced Vinyl rig betters the sound of the EMM Labs? Please include table, arm, arm cable, cartridge, phono stage, interconnect from phono stage to pre-amp and 2x power cords (table + phono stage) you can quote either r... | |
| great vinyl sound cost as much as great cd sound I, too, own the EMM Labs CDSD & DCC2. I think you would spend $2500 on just the WIRE to hook up your vinyl rig- tonearm cable, interconnect for phono stage to DCC2, power cord for phono stage. The actual total cost to add vinyl playback is ver... | |
| 20A P.C. Recomendations for Rowland Model 6 Monos. Raquel: The question I'm trying to get comments on is this- Let's say that I have a pair of Model 6's and NO BATTERY POWER SUPPLIES. Which aftermarket power cords have owners found to enhance their performance run straight out of the wall?? | |
| 20A P.C. Recomendations for Rowland Model 6 Monos. Raquel: I do, in fact, run them with the BPS-6 battery supplies. They DO sound better on most material- typically very dynamic large scale classical or other dynamic selections at HIGH volume - running DC rather than AC. I question whether I'm ext... | |
| Dartzeel amp lives up to hype Rgs92 Hit the nail on the head, I heard the Dart/VR9/EMM Labs combo at the '05 Rocky Mtn. Show in Denver last fall. "Purity" & "Sheer Beauty" are very accurate ways to describe what I heard. In addition, there was an effortlessness and natural... | |

| Tenor 300HP / 150HP Tube Rolling My understanding and expectation is that the $9 JJ Teslas can be bettered by several of the legendary NOS names like Telefunken and Mullard. People usually won't replace perfectly good stock tubes with "Old Ones" that cost 10X times the price with... | |
| Is it worth spending $10k on CD-only player today? Until someone has heard the latest generation of bleeding edge CD players, the question cannot be answered accurately. After they've been carefully auditioned, then all the discussion about how much to spend, how much is too much, etc. can take pl... | |
| Comparing Wadia vs. Meitner Some of you have forgoten that it's exciting to discover a new component, of any kind, which improves on what you are presently using. If you have the inclination to and the funds for purchase of said component, you probably will move forward and ... | |
| Comparing Wadia vs. Meitner Welcome to the fray, Robm321- I'm surprised you've remained in the wings this long. A little digital background. For 5+ happy years I owned a Wadia 270/27i combo, with a mid level GNSC mod performed in year 4. Next- Audio Aero Cap. Mk.II. Next- Me... | |
| Check out Alison Moorer's The Duel Her live CD is, musically, great- It has various selections from her pre "The Duel" studio releases. A little more alt. country than The Duel. She has one of the purest, most powerful and Alabama Sexy voices you'll ever hear. She's an absolute pow... | |
| EMM Labs CDSD / DCC2 - Initial Listening Session Robm321: The only reason to listen to others' opinions is that, on occasion, you may learn something new & valuable. This knowledge could allow you to improve your stereo and, more importantly, your listening enjoyment. | |
| EMM Labs CDSD / DCC2 - Initial Listening Session Robm321: It would seem prudent and most constructive to make purchase decisions AFTER a demo, not before. Also, carrying strong predispositions into a demo will generally skew the results of the demo to the side where one's predispositions lie. Ap... | |
