| Audio Research Ref 5 and Krell amps I think there is a big demand for the parts so ARC is probably juggling demand for new orders vs factory refits (which probably includes the buttons and from face plate).Best to book your order in.In my case, my dealer just made too hard an offer ... | |
| Audio Research Ref 5 and Krell amps Kenny, the website shows a Reference Power 250 amp but clicking on it leads you to a totally different product ;)And there's no mention of the 250 anywhere and that's been in audio shows and also available for sale for a few months now.There is al... | |
| Audio Research Ref 5 and Krell amps I think you have to make an appointment to get it done.List price is 1k above the non SE model | |
| Audio Research Reference 5 Preamp Share PICS!! | |
| How do I hook up 2 preamps to one amp If the stereo preamp has a Home Theather bypass input, you can connect the Krell front LR pre out to that input.When you are watching movies, switch the stereo preamp to HT bypass mode.My Bel Canto Pre3 has an input I can configure for that.As for... | |
| Audio Research Reference 5 Preamp I can't believe I am the only one who's interested in this ;)There's a hint of it in the preview of the Ref2SE Phonohttp://www.avguide.com/blog/exclusive-first-review-audio-researchs-new-reference-phono-2se-phonostage-preampLooks like the front fa... | |
| Ayon Audio CD-5 versus CD-5s The dCS Puccini I heard didn't impress me when it was going head to head against the XDS1. But the MPS5 in my own system definitely didn't sound cold to me. I will finally get the chance to put the XDS1 in my main system this Christmas ;) Will pos... | |
| Ayon Audio CD-5 versus CD-5s I must have read two posts back to back and responded to them in a single one so here's the relevant points for this one. Sorry.A. CD5 vs CD5SThe major differences are:1. USB input (48kHz vs 24/96kHz)IMHO this is a moot point. The USB input is acc... | |
| Ayon CD5 or a super DAC with high resolution files Ooops I think I responded to two different threads about the Ayon in the same reply. :P | |
| Ayon CD5 or a super DAC with high resolution files You actually asked a few questions all jumbled into one. So here's my attempt to make some sense of it all.A. CD5 vs CD5SThe major differences are:1. USB input (48kHz vs 24/96kHz)IMHO this is a moot point. The USB input is acceptable but not fanta... | |
| Class D amps I am using an Audio Research Reference 5 to partner with my Bel Canto REF1000Ms driving Thiel CS3.7s.I think the tube/Class D combo works great. The ARC Ref5 adds a lushness and dimensionality that I found wanting in the REF1000Ms. | |
| Preamplifier that supports 3D movie There are DLP projectors with lens shift as well. But these tend to be more expensive.I use my DILA with zero offset on a shelf (lens aimed at the centre of the screen).I would position the DLP with a fixed offset above or below the screen (ceilin... | |
| Preamplifier that supports 3D movie Most projectors don't meet their "claimed" lumens rating when calibrated properly. I think the best (like JVC) could do 600-800 lumens (depending on zoom etc), and most were doing 300-500. With 3D, some projectors "cheat" a little by using the bri... | |
| Which makes more sense? - CD player vs SACD It really depends on your budget.I think on one extreme, the no compromise SACD players would play CDs just as well as a standalone unit of comparable price but sound even better with SACDs. Think Playback Designs, EMM Labs and dCS.But on a low en... | |
| Preamplifier that supports 3D movie You can try AVSForums.com They also have an online sales department. The main problem is that active 3D projectors require as much brightness as possible Have a look at the Dalite HP screen. If you can fit your projector in the right area (i.e. ze... |
