| Which CD player to buy, Sony, Meridian, Theta, or? I would strongly suggest a Theta Miles (but it must be the balanced version). I liked it better than the Sony SACD-1, but then again I have not heard the others mentioned. | |
| Analog system VPI Aries JMW 10.5, Grado Statement, ARC Ref. phono, Nordost or Hovland anolog interconnects. Great rig that should leave you room for some records. | |
| What are you powering your Martin Logans with???? Thanks for all of the feedback on this thread. However I am still wondering about the Wolcott's and ARC VT200........ Maybe there is nobody using these amps an ML's???????? | |
| Amps for Martin Logan SL3 I know you are all talking SS amps here, but what about tubes. I have run ML SL3's, Aeons, and Prodigy's with Classe' and Aragon amps..... they sound really good. I also use ARC VT100 and VT200 and these amps in my opinion sound far superior to th... | |
| best turntable new or used under $1000 VPI HW19.......... Rega arm | |
| To Linn and Theta listeners... When I purchased my Theta Miles I auditoned quite a few other CD players, the Linn among them. I am not trying to bash Linn but the sound from the Theta was soooooo much better, beat the Linn in every respect. The Linn stuff feels cheap too.... I'... | |
| Cartridge suggestions for around 2K If I do seek out a used cartridge,how do I judge it's condition? Are there ways to tell how much mileage a cart has or if it has been abused (aside from the cantilever being ripped off)? Thanks all for your insight. Chris | |
| ARC LS25MKII VS Classe 47.5 Pre-Amp I have an ARC based two channel setup with LS25II, Ref. phono, and VT200 into Martin Logan Prodigy's. It sounds great to my ears, in fact I have not heard anything I have liked as well anywhere. My A/V system is Classe SSP-75 into Cav-150, it does... | |
| Cartridge suggestions for around 2K It was this Salvatore guy who got me wandering about new carts in the first place. If nothing else he does make one think a little further into the audio journalism scene and the opinions/views we Audionuts seem to take as gospel. I find him rathe... | |
| Any experience with Dynavector carts??? Thanks for the responses all. The ARC does have a built in Jenson transformer to give it 69db of gain, I am thinking that should be enough for most if not the lowest output MC's. The Grado sounds really good and the.5mv output into the ARC does fi... | |
| Phono-Pre Suggestions ????? I have used a Sonic Frontier phono pre (the SFP-SE) and liked it a lot. It has switchable gain and loading is adjustable too. All in all a nice pre, it was stereophile A rated component if it means anything to you. I see them for sale on A-gone fo... | |
| Aries owner, what isolation device do you use? Rec. How much did the Silent Running cost, if you don't mind me asking? Anyone tried a non-active Vibraplane? | |
| Cartridge suggestions for around 2K Thanks all for responding. I have heard some good things about Dynavector (the XX-2, DRT, etc.) anyone have any experience with these carts? | |
| Theta Miles against Jolida JD100 Never heard the Jolida but the Theta Miles rock's. | |
| How does the Jolida JD-100 compare to... Last year I purchased a Theta Miles (balanced version). I compared it to the Arcam FMJ, Cary, ARC CD3, among others. I thought the ARC was the most refined and best of the bunch, but the Theta was real close. It even had a better bottom end to my ... |
