| tips for Vandersteen 3A sig Flying; IMO, you are right about the tube amp producing slower and more bloated bass than a good solid state amp. I auditioned an SF Power 2 (110+ wpc) for about a month, and it's supposed to have good bass "for a tube amp", but it could not even ... | |
| Silver vs. Copper, Effect of length ........sorry about the gibberish. Craig | |

| Silver vs. Copper, Effect of length Ignatz, Sean; I'm sure you both know that conventional wisdom says you should use the shortest possible spkr. cables and long ICs if necessary. Both R. Vandersteen and S. McCormack recommend this. But I'll say that I really like my 14 ft. Syn. Res... | |
| Cost is no object is easy, but.... Hi Delancy; it appears to me that some of your "used" prices are very optimistic, eg I think the VT100 MK II would realistically be more like $3000, and the Virgos also more expensive.>BR< I would put together a system based around a a McCor... | |
| Remote control for Turntable? Good post Caterham1700. I think you're right on, and I mustered up a smile too. Cheers. Craig. | |
| Plinius SA-250 or Mark Levinson/Krell/Mc Respectfully Patrick, you need to go out and listen to the amps you've mentioned, and make your choice based on music quality/character and not on any sort of implied "pedigree" or cost of component. I have a $5K (MSRP) McCormack DNA-2DX and think... | |
| Is Component "Upgradability" Important ? Hi Mcdh1; it seems to me that upgradeability is most important with components that have rapidly changing (improving) technology, and to me this means digital "stuff", especially DACs, CD players etc. I recently purchased an ML 360S DAC that had b... | |
| Newbies Biamp question. Hifixpert & Supakit; assuming your pre-amp does have two sets of output terminals, it depends on whether or not they are both "active" at the same time (is this series wired?) or not. If both sets are active at the same time you could use them... | |
| tips for Vandersteen 3A sig Gasman; even though I didn't start this thread, your post was of great interest to me because I have 3As but no subs, and have actually been considering Vand. 5s. But you make the 3As with subs sound very attractive, ie another option. Thanks. Craig | |
| McCormack DNA2 Deluxe vs Sim Aud Moon W5 Sorry, meant to say Hi Valdee, but Hi to Kr4 anyway:>) | |
| McCormack DNA2 Deluxe vs Sim Aud Moon W5 Hi Kr4; The DNA-2DX is considerably more dynamic and transparent than the DNA-1DX mentioned above, yet it still plays with great "finesse" at low listening levels. It will drive any load and has great, but not exaggerated bass. I have not heard th... | |
| Dodson MKll D, Levinson 360S, dCS Delius Brandon;.......biggest improvements were in transparency and dynamics, and this was across the frequency range including bass which was both deeper and more articulate. PR&T are excellent too, but then the Muse 2 had good PR&T also. I foun... | |
| Dodson MKll D, Levinson 360S, dCS Delius ......the ML 360S is fully up-gradable, and is already 24/96 compatible. | |
| Dodson MKll D, Levinson 360S, dCS Delius I replaced my Muse model 2 with a ML 360S DAC. It provided a dramatic improvement in music quality/character. I don't have any experience with the dCS or Dodson. In addition to music quality, two things I really like about the 360S are all the inp... |
