| The best speaker you ever heard? So true. Balancing the entire system... electronics, speakers, cabling, and room acoustics will make the "best". | |
| Plinius 8200 vs. 9100 -Which one? Thanks everyone! | |
| Plinius 8200 vs. 9100 -Which one? Thanks Erik,I think your right that more power would be nice in the living/dining combination room of out row house. Wish I could afford the 9200 that is why I said the 8200 instead.I've read for service that they need to be returned to New Zealan... | |
| Plinius 8200 vs. 9100 -Which one? Thanks Theunderlyingtheme for your insights. The amp may be a little more laid back than what Pdreher likes. 10 years ago I auditioned the Plinius CD Lad preamp and while it was detailed, it wasn't squeaky clean and pristine, so maybe that is what... | |
| Plinius 8200 vs. 9100 -Which one? Thanks Pdreher,Interesting that the Plinius lacks transparency. I would have not thought that to be the case, though in our lively minimalist room we have to be careful of a high res system. Incidentally the Dynaco are fine speakers and better tha... | |
| Plinius 8200 vs. 9100 -Which one? Pdreher,What do you mean by "I suggest you stick with your vintage Sansui" ? | |
| Oppo as transport I used my Oppo dv-970 into a Benchmark DAC-1. From memory, the results bettered my more expensive Cary CD-308 cdp I owned just before the Oppo/Benchmark combo. The Benchmark does such a fine job removing jitter that an additional equipment was not... | |
| phono preamp with volume control PS Audio GCPH has one. In fact I use its variable out to feed directly into a tube power amp w/ superb results. I super happy. It also sounds great with my Cambridge Audio integrated amp. | |
| NAD vs. Cambridge Audio Sorry you misunderstood me. I've been in this hobby a long time I find that synergy is paramount wether a product succeeds or fails. That is all I'm saying...no more, no less. Though I have have a modest system currently that I use a CA amp in, I ... | |
| NAD vs. Cambridge Audio Gbmcleod,Interesting to hear your response but you discussed cdps and the subject is on the amps.As this entire posting reveals, it's all about synergy. The best sounding amps and/or cdps is the one you like in your system, in your room, and w/ yo... | |
| Bewitch A-30 tube amp? _ Puresound A-30 tube amp? Tblewy,It tool a while to hear from someone who had one. A heartfelt thanks. I've notices all gear, including tubes takes a while to settle in. Do you still own it or have you moved on. | |
| New Adcom GFA-555 se - Special Edition Sounds like there was a voltage adjustment off the recommended spec. I had a vintage HK amp where one channel was very hot. After I adjusted the internal pots it was normal. | |
| New Adcom GFA-555 se - Special Edition Chrisr,Heat generated from a power amp is not necessarily an indication that there is something wrong with an amp. Your amp may have been biased toward class "A", though I don't remember if my 5400 II ran hot or not. You have not experienced a SS ... | |
| Review: Denon dp-500m Turntable My mistake. I read on another forum that it is made by Stanton...bummer! | |
| Review: Denon dp-500m Turntable I think the VTA is adjustable by the ring at the tonearm base. This TT seems as it may be made by Technics. Maybe an SL-1200 arm too. What does any one else think. I like it. |
