| A Bright Pair of Watt Puppys I don't think your room is too small, Lee. And driver excursion varies with design -- some woofers never move, others flap at the least provocation. Your Hales sound a lot different in the same room and system? | |
| Integrated Amp for VR4jr You might want to look at the Gamut integrated. | |
| buffalo terastation - doesn't allow special charac I've heard of this problem. In fact, someone suggested I stay away from the Buffalo products for this reason. If you contact Buffalo, they should have something to say (you would think). | |
| Best Audiophile Coverage Of '07 CES? Stereophile is doing blog coverage, which is pretty good. Jason Serinus did a terrific job of this for them at RMAF, but the CES blog is written by a cast of characters and is a bit more light and flippant than Jason's meaty observations, but stil... | |
| Review: Bent Audio Tap Linestage I am evaluating the TAP right now and at one time owned the Placette Active (and currently have a Placette passive). Two comments I would like to add to your fine review. First, the TAP includes first-rate functionality: channel balance, phase inv... | |
| Speakers small enough for desktop use Alex, I do not own the NHTs but heard them when our local audiophile group visited the NHT factory. They demo'd this model with and without the subwoofer. I felt that I would be happy with them sans woofer, but I can't say that you would feel the ... | |
| input sensitivity Unless you were using a preamp with a high output impedance, I think it's unlikely that that the input impedance differences between those amps are the reason they sounded different. (Input impedance is different from input sensitivity.) The Pass ... | |
| Speakers small enough for desktop use NHT M-00. Powered, $500, fabulous. | |
| do burnt CD copys sound as good as originals? Thanks. I had forgotten that you use a RealityCheck. | |
| do burnt CD copys sound as good as originals? Tbg, can you tell us your process and the equipment you use? | |
| Comparison of Thiel CS2.4 vs. Vandersteen 3A Sig. I power mine with Krell, yes with the "harshest" of amps through the "harshest" of speakers. Can you imagine? Oh the humanity!LOL... very good! | |
| Any good cdp with digital inputs Amen to that! Anyone designing a new CDP for the high end today that does not have a digital input is a fool. | |
| If you had to pay full retail, would you...??? Are you saying there's something wrong with being into trading hi-fi equipment? | |
| do burnt CD copys sound as good as originals? Interesting thought, Sean. | |
| Passive preamps: What are the relevant numbers? I'm not sure what your amps input impedance is, but if it higher than 40Kohms you shuld be fineDo you consider this a general rule of thumb where passives are concerned, that they feed into loads of >40K ohms? Why is this? |
