| Wells Audio Majestic Integrated Amp I am using a Salk Streamer, the Lampizator Lite 7, and some excellent Dana Cables with the Majestic. The combination of these with my Salk Sound S8's creates a sound that is very rich and detailed. | |
| Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced Wells Audio Majestic 150 wpc integrated @$3499 . An incredible sounding amplifier. | |
| Wells Audio Majestic Integrated Amp I have had the Majestic for a week now and am very impressed with it. I sold a VAC Sigma 160i SE to buy it. After 70 hours it has really opened up, I do not feel as though the sound of my system has suffered at all since changing from the VAC whic... | |
| VAC 160iSE integrated with NOLA speakers Jm I did not listen to them side by and you did buy my vac. The SE is much better and certainly worth the extra cash outlay in my opinion. Dan | |
| VAC 160iSE integrated with NOLA speakers I recently purchased the VAC Sigma 160i se prior to this I owned the Sigma 160i. What I hear is a much improved mid range, better pace and rhythm and also a much better and tighter bass. The overall sound is probably a good 30% better than the bas... | |
| Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam , In my humble opinion having had the Absolutes, I believe the Thales interconnects to be better. I have them and the Thales speaker cables which are easily the best I have heard in my system now and probably will never need to change from them. | |
| Speakers for VAC sigma 160i -- need inputs I use a pair of Salk Sound ss8's with the VAC and am quite pleased with the sound. I have also swapped the Chinese stock tubes with nos Mullard 12au7's , Cifte 12au7's, the Mazda silverplate 12ax7 that I often switch with a 1958 Mullard longplate ... | |
| Biggest Baddest Audio Cables The best I have heard are the Stage III Gryphon. They are an absolutely superb interconnect cable. | |
| Ear Candy: Most startling recordings. Hans Theesink Sounds of the Southland is excellent as are the two latest recordings by Ray Bonneville, Roll it Down and his newest Goin' by feel | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio Floorstanders vs. Adagio Jrs They are very similar in sound. With a sub you would be just fine with the JR.'S. I owned both and the main difference I heard was in the bass. | |
| Review: CARDERSOUND NINA I think your assesment is probably right on. When paired with good electronics the reviews from the people who have bought the Madisons have been seemingly amazed with their presentation. A speaker not broken in , placed in a bright listening room... | |
| Ayon Audio Spirit integrated amp No sir I am not. I just happen to own two of their pieces and am quite impressed with them. Sharing experiences with equipment is what this forum is all about if I am not mistaken. Also I have been out of the business for eight months and counting... | |
| Ayon Audio Spirit integrated amp I haven't heard the Spirit, but I own the Ayon Audio 300B and it sounds terrific right out of the box. If the Spirit is anything like the 300B it has to be a winner!! Also on a side note the Ayon Audio CD-1 is a superb cd player, as good as the EM... | |
| Ayon CD1 and CD3 I recently purchased the Ayon cd-1 and even before it is broken in it compares very favorably with the ones that graced our showrooms in the past. Among those that I can compare it to are the Acoustic Arts cd player, the Acoustic Arts Dac and Tran... | |
| Review: Accustic Arts DAC1-MK4 DA converter I have to agree with the others, your review was excellent and a joy to read. I am awaiting my 1st mk4 and will be mating it with Einstein's Light In The Dark stereo amp , Einstein's The Tube preamp ,and Acapellas LaCampanellas. I am lucky enough ... |
