| ZYX R-1000 Series Omega-S From my experience with the original ZYX 1000, the sound was a little on the warm and polite side and not the most extension on top. When I hit the 75-100 hour mark things changed. The cartridge became more open and detailed. You are in for a surp... | |
| For Basis TT owners does the VPI SDS work? I have the original Vector arm which is copper from Discovery Cable. I have always loved the Discovery cable for tonearm wires. | |
| Audio Research DSI 450 vrs. HD 220 against all tu The sound was aggressive, foward and not musical at all. If this dealer liked the sound at CES I would run far away from him. | |
| Audio Research DSI 450 vrs. HD 220 against all tu I heard Audio Research new class D amp in their own room. It was awful. They should stick with tubes. I did hear a class D amp that sounded wonderful and it happened to be an integrated. It was the Chapter Electronics Precis 250S. The room also fe... | |

| Audio Research DSI 450 vrs. HD 220 against all tu For what its worth the DS450 amps sounded awful at CES. | |
| Playback Designs MPS-5 - Measerments v. Sound If the Playback sounds anything like the stacked Esoteric combo I would not be interested. Esoteric sounds to me analytical and hifi ish and thin. There is no sense of musicality. I hope Playback is not like the Esoteric. | |
| Buy LED, LCD or Plasma No, that is why anyone should buy the KRP-500 or 600 while they still can. I would have bought any Pioneer still available over the Pany if you are real serious about video. | |
| Buy LED, LCD or Plasma Albert try to find the Pioneer KRP-600M. This is a 60 inch plasma and is the last model they made. The blacks are way ahead of any Pany out there. Don't worry about Pioneer out of the business. If you want the best this is it. I paid 3200.00 for t... | |
| Best Blu-ray/DVD player for under $800? Go with the Oppo bdp-83SE, this player sells for 900.00 well worth it if you are going to use the analog outputs into your home theater. If you have a good processor with HDMI then the cheaper Oppo is fine. | |
| SHOW attendees: please post speaker reports here No they were in a hotel that was not part of CES. | |
| SHOW attendees: please post speaker reports here The only other rude jerk I ran into was Jason Bloom of Apogee fame. What a flaming ass. His speakers were too good for him to play any of my cd's that I wanted to listen too. The point is if the retailer coming in the room likes the speakers with ... | |
| SHOW attendees: please post speaker reports here Those ugly Hansens were one of the worst sounds at the show. | |
| SHOW attendees: please post speaker reports here I thought the worst sound at CES was the Magico (too bright) and the Soundlabs (dull,dull,dull) Vandersteens (just so so), YG Acoustics (way too rich) I liked the Mag. 1.7 but would like to have heard them without the center speaker. My favorite w... |
