Jumpers for Integrated Amps: What are you guys using? The 5350SE replaced my 4330SE. There was nothing wrong with the 4330SE. The 5350SE came available and I decided to go for it (Creek gear doesn’t come up for sale very often). When I initially compared the two using my cd player (Naim CD3.5), speak... | |
Jumpers for Integrated Amps: What are you guys using? I will definitely post back with my findings after trying to PBJ's. I found another post here on A-gon where a guy bought 99.99% pure silver rod and bent it to the shape of his stock U jumpers and said the results were amazing. As I mentioned in m... | |
Jumpers for Integrated Amps: What are you guys using? Thanks for all the response everyone... I understand now. As for the card some of you were referring to, I believe you are talking about the phono stage? It's an option on Creek integrateds as it is a board that connects inside the unit. When inst... | |
Jumpers for Integrated Amps: What are you guys using? sfall, mesch & kalali:I don't understand. What does the preamp side being passive have to do with anything? | |
Best Cable Match for: Creek 4330SE + Rega Apollo + Vandersteen 2C The Naim CD3.5 has arrived. I've been listening for a couple days now and my initial impressions can be summed up in three words: MUSICAL and RHYTHMIC. The third word, DETAILED, I noticed later as I was listening to more complex material. I have... | |

Best Cable Match for: Creek 4330SE + Rega Apollo + Vandersteen 2C Hey jafant, Still have the DH Labs Q-10's and Air Matrix. Sold the Apollo a little while ago, and have a Naim cdp on the way. It comes with a DIN to RCA made by Chord Company, so I'm interested to see how it sounds. It will be hard to get a refere... | |
Best Cable Match for: Creek 4330SE + Rega Apollo + Vandersteen 2C I used "romantic" from chrisr's post above. To me, it's a pure marketing term to describe a sound that is soft & fuzzy, warm with slight bloat in the bass. Not as detailed, but still has a neutral treble response. | |
Comparing these CD players with my gear... Hi mahler123 and everyone... No, I don't need a bunch of extra features. This is for a straight 2-channel system, so no need for blu-ray or USB. I went with the Naim, so that should give you a good idea :) I have an old iPhone 5 & that I use e... | |
Comparing these CD players with my gear... Will do jafant... I chose the Naim. Never had one before, so I gotta check it off the list. :) | |
Comparing these CD players with my gear... The Naim comes with a chord din to rca cable.No, the Miles is non-xlr. | |
Comparing these CD players with my gear... Hi George, I think the Miles has both. In fact, I've read the advantages of using 1-bit, multi-bit and DSP. It's all prefence I guess--as well as how well designed the analog stage is. I've had great sounding players that have used each type.Here ... | |
Comparing these CD players with my gear... Thanks to everyone and all your comments/suggestions. Based on what I read (both here and in magazine & online reviews), as well as comparing the other players listed to my previous players; and considering my budget, availability and personal... | |
Comparing these CD players with my gear... Those all look nice, but I guess I should've given my budget... max is $500. | |
Comparing these CD players with my gear... What do you guys think of the Theta Miles? I used to have one (and loved it) but I different gear at the time. Any comments on how a Miles would sound with the rest of my gear? I have the opportunity to buyback the one I sold another audio friend ... |
