| Resolution Audio - Cantata Auntjenof2, more audiophiles will know about it very soon...next issue of Stereophile has a review. Also 24/192k upgrade of the Cantata (for Mac users...licensing for PC compatibility to follow a bit later) will be available as an upgrade in two w... | |
| Resolution Audio - Cantata Hamburger, The C-50 will work well with most any faily efficient non-reactive loudspeaker. Development was largely done with some extremely efficient speakers from France (no longer made) called Rehdeko. The C-50 sounds great on a lot of other wel... | |
| Resolution Audio - Cantata Actually there has been an update available for some time to resolve that noise issue on early units. Hamburger, it looks like you are in Singapore and the importer there should certainly have the updated drives installed in demo units by now. Uni... | |
| Turntables better than a Wadia 861SE w/ Statement To me it depends on the recording. I have so many CD's that completely involve me in the music...why not enjoy them to the fullest? I enjoy analog playback as much as anyone I know, and I'm deeply invested in that format and gear as well, but ther... | |
| Turntables better than a Wadia 861SE w/ Statement Hi Frank, your S-7"i" isn't GNSC modded :-) I'm not saying...I'm just saying. ha | |
| Turntables better than a Wadia 861SE w/ Statement Since dealers ads seem to be allowed in this thread. I'll put a GNSC Statement modded Wadia S-7"i" up against most of the turntables listed above anyday. Best Cd player I've ever heard by a long shot... | |
| Audio Research Reference 5 Preamp The model number 4 seldom appears in hi-end audio products, at least not from companies that want to sell any of those products in Asian countries. The number 4 represents bad luck. | |
| CAT JL-3 Sig Mk2s direct from Wadia 781i? I think it's important to clarify the reason that Wadia allows for higher output level settings than the CD standard. They want their DAC's and CD players to be able to feed a very wide variety of amplifiers on the market directly. While it's true... | |
| Wadia 781 You can set it up through your dealer. In the US it costs $5000 to go from 581SE to 781 status. It's $3500 if your 581 is an "i" version. Part of the 781 upgrade is inclusion of digital inputs and outputs thus the difference in price. Also if some... | |
| Wadia 781 Chris, I know the 781 quite well...have lived with one for a couple months now and am also quite familiar with it's design from technical standpoint. It's a clearly obvious step forward from the 581SE the second you hear it, I definately would rec... | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 TRL Audio mod I can't speak to how it compares to what anyone else does, but I'm certainly happy to supply details on what we do.The modifications first and foremost are not to correct anything that is in any way lacking in the stock unit from a design standpoi... | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 TRL Audio mod Just to clarify. We do still mod Opus 21's that have not been purchased through GNSC. There are some distinct advantages (warranty coverage and mod cost) in working through us on the whole package but we do still mod them if someone sends a unit. ... | |
| When will Wadia 581 be available Your patience will be well rewarded. It's a great player and the production units are just beginning to ship now. I'm a little surprised someone took a deposit from you on a unit that wasn't even shipping yet, but if you want to get one of the fir... | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 or GNSC moddedd 50/55 David,Happy to discuss this directly with you if you can contact me off line. Not sure how many people out there have made these direct comparrisons which we of course have...I'm happy to guide you to a good decision for your needs.Regards,Steve | |
| Balanced usage with Opus 21 Carl, I think the opus 21 sounds excellent going direct but I do think it sounds a bit better going through a good pre-amp (how much better depends on the pre-amp). It needs to be a darn good one though to improve the performance. There is no doub... |
