Accuphase e-450 or E-560? Thanks Nolitan for your comments. I'm impressed as i quite like the Classe house sound. I generally agree with your comment about class a amps, although it would be helpful to hear from any members who can describe the difference in sound between ... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? 03-08-10: Audiofun, as I essentially needed an entertainment cabinet for my lcd tv, dvds & a/v gear, that was the obvious way to go & I can specify the type/grade of maple as well within my budget. I also concluded a solid cabinet was the ... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? Hi Tgb, I agree. All the f/back I have read is basically audiophiles gob-smacked with the performance...especially at that price. I wasn't aware they had closed their doors. I've sent them an email asking Neuance to clarify their trading status...... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? ..that said Karelfd, never say never! ;) | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? Hi Karelfd, thanks. I agree that the SRA Ohio Class XL platforms are the holy grail of iso platforms, but I can save $2.5k by buying Neuance shelves instead of SRA. Neuance shelves offer phenominal cost/perfmance & do everything right, besides... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? Hi Audiofun, your comments made me think about where I can spend "wise money" with my own rack/isolation solutions. I've come to the conclusion (in my situation anyway) that a custom-made maple entertainment cabinet is the best way to go as I need... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? 03-05-10: Audiofun. I agree with your sentiment. The option of a high grade digital out with the CD77 is good for those of us who own a classic reference dac they are (understandably) reluctant to part with! With that said, a-b testing the AMR's d... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? 03-02-10: Audiofun, thanks for your advice. I agree it would take a supreme dac to improve on AMR's multibit dac. Multibit theory pre-dates Delta Sigma theory which was embodied (to the endth degree) in the Vimak DS-1800mk2 dac. The Vimak is pheno... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? 02-28-10: Buconero117, I actually own a BDP-83SE. It's an awesome bluray player, although for my main dig front end i'm looking for a different sound. | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? 02-28-10: Tbg, I strongly disagree with your statement "these questions never reach any consensus and cannot be used by anybody"...Well I greatly appreciate the time taken by fellow AG'ers and will use the feedback from members to help me take a d... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? 02-28-10: Schipo, I am sorry Schipo you are annoyed I exercised my free right to open a genuine thread asking for advice on best options for a digital front end in my price range. I find your comment that I am somehow "curious and fishing for an a... | |
Which is the best cd player under $10k? The AMR-CD77 looks extremely well engineered, but it's reliance on out of production old stock parts & especially it's lack of a digital output is an issue as I have a Vimak DS-1800 mk2 dac which is one of the best Delta Sigma dacs ever made. ... | |
Infinity Renaissance 90 questions Hi Olp88,I have an update of my own! I sold my Renaissance 90's a couple of months ago. I thought to myself "Do I really want to stuff around extensively modding these things, getting them re-finished etc and worrying about spare parts?" & cam... | |
Infinity Renaissance 90 questions Timpani, what a difference a day makes in the life of an audiophile. After weighing up the benefits $4000.00(AU) was going to make to my system invested in either a line filter or in a high end re-design/re-wire & external x-over mod to my Ren... | |
Infinity Renaissance 90 questions Hi Timpani, You're right. Thanks for clarifying what you meant..I had that "Ah ha" moment!..Kudos to the IRS Epsilon & Carie Christie..what a genius (shakes his head with smile). Yup well I say if you spend $14000.00, you deserve a little extr... |
