| Line Arrays - Competitive with best dynanics, ESL? Hi Albert,Not sure if you'll see this thread (as it's over 2 years old...) but...Having totally forgotten about this thread, completely coincidentally I ordered GR Research LS6 line arrays a couple months ago. I'm on the AV123 preorder list for a ... | |
| PC-Audio vs. High-end CD Player-GAME OVER I am surprised that on this thread there are no empirical audio users. His pacecar reclocker for the squeezebox looks very interesting... hooks up via an I2s connection to a modified Benchmark or a Northstar dac.Any empirical audio users here? I w... | |
| Upgrade from Scoutmaster? Bryan - I took a look at your photos... and I would say it would be in your best interest to make addressing room acoustic problems your top audio priority. If you are looking for a "WOW" improvement, this is it. | |
| 3 way vs. 2 way In a small room, big speakers will overload the room, have boomy bass, and sound bad.But assuming you have the space, and assuming you like DYNAMICS, unfortunately there is no 2 way in existence that can sound like a large speaker.Something like a... | |
| How to audition used speakers??? "Isn't buying speakers this way as good as rolling a die?"Yes. Find a good dealer and work with him, unless you like rolling dice. | |
| Follow Up On TV Querry For 2007 Purchase...... I would only buy a plasma. They look way better than LCDs to me, much more vivid colors and deeper blacks. Burn in is a non issue unless you are negligent.With that being said, it is up to you of course. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I run my Velodyne DD15 out of my syrah. It has stereo inputs, so I just run a standard RCA cable from one of the pre-outs. If your sub only takes a mono cable, you'll need a Y adapter | |
| Mcintosh,Meridian,Anthem,Classe surround sound The Cary Cinema 11 is the one to beat, and it's only 3k. Why spend more when you don't have to? Has 7.1 anolog in, audiophile engineering, a good analog pass through, and is future proofed with an upcoming addon to support the new formats. | |
| Denon 2930ci Looks Like Crap on 1080P LCD? Diver- Your problem has nothing to do with 1080P and 720P resolutions. The only difference is where the upscaling gets done - either in the player, or in the TV. Expecting a big difference in an upscaling DVD player means that you are assuming tha... | |
| Need cartridge advice for Supratek preamp I'm a Syrah owner. There is no silver bullet cartridge for the Syrah - just find one under 2.5mv that matches well with the Rega arm. Dynavector, Denon and Benz would all work well. | |
| Is the Ginko Cloud 11 the best isolation for a VPI Hello,What do you folks put 'under' your Cloud platforms? In other words - what do you put your cloud platforms on? Does the quality of the rack or platform even matter as far as the cloud is concerned?thank you | |
| Significance of different components of audio ... I agree with your list - but I would add preamp/volume control into the "important" category. | |
| Using B&W 802n's as Rears w/B&W 800n's as Mains??? Keep the N802s for rear channels. No reason not to, if you have the room and cash | |
| Mini Strata??? I don't think the AV123 crowd and the Agon crowd mix too much. I feel that the AV123 products are competitive, (I have the LS6 on order), but the crowd as whole seems (younger?) than the vibe at Agon, somewhat of a different culture | |
| Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player? The idea that CDs are going to disappear soon is a ridiculous and un-substantiated claim. There is no reason to not invest in quality CD playback. |
