| Pass XA30.8 vs Luxman m600-a vs Hegel H20 Upper end Luxman gear is very special and is in no way outclassed by the better known competitors. | |
| When I have seen people listing their systems lately CDs are not dead nor are the players with Aphiles. I do not happen to think marketing is bad, perverse, evil, or creating some sort of need and desire not already hard wired into our humanness. Marketers are people and companies are people. We are... | |
| Best budget DAC I second Emotiva! Great dacs for the money. | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Same thing, the Gold Lion select tubes from Upscale Audio. These tubes are even more important and you want the quietest tubes of the bunch. | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? I should make a comment here on the wonderful Star Sound Apprentice stand. I use the less expensive Adona coupling discs and they may not extract the very best performance from these stands. I just am not sure. I will try the Star Sound coupling ... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Tomic, I do understand your point being in innovation & product development. Yes it is part of the cost and spread out over a relatively few units unfortunately. Good point. Charles, on Red Book CD spinning the Yammy is a great value and to my... | |
| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Good idea on the 10ga star quad twist cables. They will really make you smile! You can sell the rest. I sold my set of WE16s very quickly. | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? This is the Star Sound stand I am talking about. I purchased the coupling discs from Adona as they were more reasonably priced. Eden sound also makes nice ones for reasonable cost. http://www.starsoundaudio.com/ComponentPlatformsDetail.php?SP-SA-1... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Tomic601, we agree. You are making my very point. Our hobby has so few that our prices are so crazy high. We disagree on the parts being aerospace as the boards are filled with common parts etc...the type of parts found on the boards in a Scion. T... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Really hard and most likely impossible to state where high end begins. I have owned Van Alstine and Quicksilver gear and they were pretry good really. | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Some good values do exist and you mentioned them. However, a great many others fit my description. I cannot build a car, but I can can buy a Scion for the price of some high end dac's and amps. I cannot build a wave runner, snowmobile, motorcycle,... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Seems I cannot edit even 10 seconds after posting. The edit function is not working. | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Forgot to mention that even the high end, boutique parts market is priced out of sight. I can build gear that sounds as good as gear selling for 10x the price, but it is not cheap for me to build with top quality boutique parts. Some don't believ... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? JWM, that is true. We are in a tough spot as the gear and hobby we love so much is priced so very high. Not all the time, but too much of the time. | |
| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Hi all. I now have 100% WE 10 ga wire power cords throughout my system and just love them. I simply used a 10 gauge run for ground, hot, and neutral. No shielding of any kind and a simple twisting of the three wires. Highly recommended. I also use... |
