| Who makes these? what is the value on them? Bphillips330 asked:"where do you think the best place to sell this equipment?"Take some really good pictures and auction them here on Audiogon. I may be wrong, but I think A'gon will get you the best price the quickest of any other site. Unless yo... | |
| Dali Helicon 300 with Sansui 9090DB = disaster?? Have a fun weekend. ;-) | |
| Sonus Extrema: Amplifier and room size I saw Rowland mentioned up the thread. There's pretty good agreement that you'll need more power with those in your room. If you think of Rowland, then consider the Continuum 500 integrated. It's transparent, crystal clear, dynamic and absolutely ... | |
| I walked into a dealer and got a shock.... Piedpiper said:" that you'd get better sound by going for quality rather than quantity...and MAC is not everyones cup of tea." among other things.You're the first to imply that the Mac isn't good quality and unless one of those "everyones" doesn't... | |
| Review: Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval 8 Speaker cable I added a Jeff Rowland Design Group Continuum 500 intergrated amp, with phono cards, a couple of weeks ago. JRDG and the dealer had put a hundred-plus hours on it per my request and I've added another 150 or so hours, so it's safe to say it's at 3... | |
| Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now? Well, I just did a survey of the posts or updates in the last 24-hours and, your right, the mega-systems outnumbered the mid and low systems about 6 to 4.I don't see an impediment to prevent those with more modest systems from posting. Doesn't alm... | |
| I walked into a dealer and got a shock.... Come on Pied, unless you know something specific about the Mac, don't speculate about this stuff. My 1000 watt Rowland Continuum 500 is just hunky-dorry idling at 1 watt (sweet and transparent, better than my single-ended, micro-watt, Class A tube... | |
| Bass issues,,,,will new speaker help? Check out the Sumiko Master Set. There are two or three threads discussing it on A'gon. You've got great equipment and this is a very small cost to get incredible results.Dave | |
| Do the Jeff Rowland 201 amplifiers have warmth? I've owned the Continuum 500 integrated (with phono cards) for two-weeks now. It's like two 501s, a Capri and two PC-1 Power Correction Modules in one gorgeous box. Looks like a Concerto integrated that's 1.5" taller and with a curved faceplate. I... | |
| Dali Helicon 400 or Acoustic Zen Adagio? 05-07-08: Steidlguitars said:"Dcstep, this is not intended as some sort of challenge, but perhaps you're asking the Helicons to reproduce sounds they're not really designed to reproduce. Do you know the frequency you're focusing on? If that freque... | |
| I walked into a dealer and got a shock.... Another bit of BS. Lack of VTA adjustment will impact any cartridge, not just the Blackbird. The Blackbird should work fine with that arm and your equipment. They probably want you to get a low output MC so you'll have to buy the cartridge and a s... | |
| I walked into a dealer and got a shock.... The Mac does just fine "loafing along". Its middle range is not "optimal" and it will operate at it's highest specifications with low loads. Where do you guys come up with this crap?The OP never said he was having any problems other than with his ... | |
| I walked into a dealer and got a shock.... Pure BS. Don't pay them any mind unless there's something that you think is lacking, then address that.They saw that you believe in good equipment and have the money to spend when motivated, so they tried to motivate you.Your electronics will cert... | |
| Dali Helicon 400 or Acoustic Zen Adagio? Mike, this issue that I experienced was in very low bass, below string orchestra levels typically. So it was synthesizers playing below the five-string electric bass range. I only ran into it on some of my light jazz albums. Also, you if you heard... | |
| System matching can be difficult... I looked at you systems and noted a lot of old speaker technology. I think that if you focused on one system and built it around a really great modern speaker that you'd get more total enjoyment.Going to a show, like RMAF, is a great suggestion. (... |
