Hate to ask...... Don't HATE it but don't get too obsessed about as much as two channel sound. I did get High end units for HT Set-up. Classe SSP-50, Dunlavy II's for rear and I for Center (mains are Dunlavy V'S), Classe CAV-150 amp driving only center channel, Rea... | |
Pet Stories Perfect post to defend my not getting a dog or cat for my 4 and 12 year daughters. Their first choice for a birthday gift is always a pet! My Dunlavy's V are the reasons for my reluctance. Thanks guys! | |
Any advise to improve my system Speakers I agree, but I would try balanced Ic between CD and Pre-amp if the DVP has the feature. | |
Techno Anyone? Tireguy and Wellen,and all interested in techno.I just found a replacement for the future sound of london! Comparision with FSOL is actually good thing. The newest from ' Plaid' called 'Double figure' is one of the most notable record in recent re... | |
A minor rant Let us go back to us audiophiles. Are we the ones whoes system cost much more than the software it plays? Say 10k softare played on 50 K hardware. Now that would be stupid to non audiophiles or come to think of it even us audiophiles. "Tweak less,... | |

John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Recently I had this eye opener experience. I have only two power outlets behind my wall of audio equipment. so I got $40.0 power strip from Radio shake so I can connect some components from outlet on side wall( not very high end!) I hooked up my c... | |
Stereophile Been there. Done that. It is frustrating! To add insult to an injury, Stereophile has become incredibly shrinking magazine. Usually done reading in 2-3 days and the wait begins. Lately it is almost always late and inconsistent delivery. Have start... | |
What does State of the Art mean to you? My definition of SOTA is the system that has the Ability to Reproduce Live Music closest possible. Price does not matter. Brand names does not matter and THE TECHNOLOGY USED TO GET THERE DOES NOT MATTER. IT IS THE SOUND STUPID!No offense to any on... | |
Can $15,000 Sound As Good As $75,000? Yes. When you have Lexus SC430 equipped with ML sound system to go for the remaining dough. Or a Zanzibar Red Porsche Boxter S to go. No Really, with lot of luck, well researched, well combined system can perform as good as 75 K system. | |
Music Metre Fidelus digital cable I concurr with Kalan's comments. I had the MM cable. The sound was great . Of course I wanted to improve it. Bought MIT T3 digital, too blurry. Bought much more expensive MIT digital reference. Sound came much closer to the MM but still not as goo... | |
Power Cord Review Lcat, I suggest you also try Radio Shack's one of thoes Power surge protectors, one with high current capabilities($35.00 to $60.0), with multiple out let for your front end. It may knock your socks off. | |
Monoblocks did not work On My quest for perfection, Over the week end I tried to Bi-wire my Dunlavy V's, with my 2- Classe CA 400 in monoblock configuration ( no vert or hor biamping yet) I DID everything right: Connect to the right terminal at both amp and speakers, Bot... | |
Monoblocks did not work Zippyy has the correct definition of the Horizontal biamping. In that one amp used severely (lows)than the other (highs).Vertical biamping on the contrary has each amp driving highs and lows on each of their L/R channels, so that both amp are used... | |
Monoblocks did not work I called Classe to day and asked for their opinion on the subject. " two much power for easy load speaker" they said. If I had hooked up to difficult load , it would have sounded better. Robert Adam re-iterated his recommendation if vertical bi-am... |
