| 50k people attend concert with no live music "Now there are dance clubs where the kids all listen to their ipods...that's the weirdest concept of all."Lowrider...are they at least all listening to a common source? i.e., the same music at the same time?? | |
| Review: Merrill Audio Taranis Amplifier Don - They say, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." Who do you think got me thinking about Class D? Thanks for the invite. I'll get in touch on that. The Joules look beautiful in your pix. Guessing they sound that way too. | |
| I Tunes to my System Timru's suggestion of the Mediabridge mini to RCA connector from headphone out is certainly easy. Not that much harder but possibly providing a step up in sound quality for not a lot of money would be to add something like an AudioQuest Dragonfly ... | |
| Ayon, are there too many ads out there? Bill K - where in Audiogon are you seeing those USA Tube Audio ads? I got AdBlocker a few weeks back and all the annoying pop up ads have ceased. Curious about the different experience we seem to be having. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Swampwalker - yes..."amazing" is a totally fitting adjective for Alvin Lee's playing on CG. Another good 'un from back then "Undead". Spotify has them (remasters) and the sonics are very good. Hope you get inspired to go have a listen. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Cricklewood Green by Ten Years After. Can't believe Alvin Lee's fingers didn't spontaneously combust making this one. | |
| Music for cats... Too funny Tls. Had no idea (but it kind of figures). | |
| Upgrading - what amp to choose Hello again, Willie. I'm not planning to upgrade the Gungnir at this point. I'd gotten a bug to try something new and became interested in Class D amplification. Discretionary $ are going into a Taranis amp from Merrill Audio. I've really not done... | |
| Upgrading - what amp to choose Hey Willie - I was not being sarcastic or ironic with my KLEI comment. Knew you thought highly of their products so figured that's what you would use. I checked out your DIY IC procedure on your system page. (I'm guessing your haven't yet updated ... | |
| Upgrading - what amp to choose Well I, for one, am dying to know what you upgraded to! especially from V-Link to DAC. I'm guessing you went to some flavor of KLEI Innovations on the ICs from your DAC? Let us know. Glad things are sounding better. | |
| Good impedance match for Precision Fidelity C-7AR Had a similar complaint about limited volume control range on my gear...though perhaps not as extreme as what you report, Pix. Almarg suggested attenuators. I went with Harrison Labs -12dB attenuators purchased from Parts Express. They were around... | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin Yping...I do think the XLO track works. Does it work bettter/faster than simply playing music for an equal number of hours? Can't say (haven't had occasion to do the experiment with duplicate cables etc.) though that's my assumption. Would I like ... | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin I bought and use the XLO burn in CD (track 9 on repeat) based on Geoff K's prior recommendation in another thread. It's useful for "re-settling" things when equipment has been moved around or cables changed. | |
| Best Rock Album of 2015 Hello Audiotomb. I enjoy Wilco, some things more than others. Their production is usually very good. The brief listen to Star Wars that I did left me way underwhelmed song-wise; so I was surprised to see your vote for it as Best Rock Album of 2015... | |
| Review: Merrill Audio Taranis Amplifier Thanks for commenting Ag66. Good to hear from another Taranis owner. |
