| Transparency: What speakers have it in spades? Transparency means to me the ability of a speaker to, through slight of hand, step out of the picture. To do this, it must minimize coloration, must be crossover and driver seamless, and preferably be full range. Size doesn't matter. A successfull... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Jp1208 I don't really know what model APL. It was more than a year ago, so I'm sure there have been some major improvements made since. Synergy is always the key. On it's native SET system. the APL (in NOS mode) performed admirably. My system tend... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Hi Dbld, you don't make those fixed voting machines, do you? :)Well, that is what I am saying, there is still no free lunch. | |
| The best CD Player for the money Tvad, anyone here needs to hear my system as is, then supplant their CDP or DAC in place of mine for a new listen. The differences will be astounding. The Toshiba was awful. | |
| The best CD Player for the money I will try the Oppo. If it is a little better than the Toshiba, than it will still sound awful and will be returned to the store just as fast. Tvad, my system is open to anyone who want to listen. Hear mine first, then plug in yours. | |
| The best CD Player for the money I heard the APL on two systems, one being mine. Synergy is the thing. For a particular SET system, it breathed dynamics and presence into the system. In my own highly resolving system, it sounded like a basket of bones. As for the Toshiba, don't g... | |
| Review: Consonance CD-120 Linear CD Player Great review, nonoise, and hoorah for Opera Audio!I had the original CD-120 and it was an oversampler. It's highs were obviously a problem, as they were smeared, and hazed. This lack of clarity affected all frequencies. I am running an Audio Note/... | |
| Audio Note Dac 3.1 X balanced with ARC Ref 3 ??? I am using the discontinued PS Audio Lambda transport. It has gained considerably in performance through some artful changes wrought by my amp and preamp builder. The AN/Lambda duo is a knock out combo. | |
| Audio Note Dac 3.1 X balanced with ARC Ref 3 ??? It may be you or something else. There is a marked difference between upsamplers and the AN on my system. | |
| Anyone Totally Content With Their System? I am content with my system. It allows me to fully appreciate the artist. When all is unmasked, every voice inflection, and turn of the bow is heard. | |
| Words From the Wise Don't blame CDs for bad sound, and keep all indefinitely. You will be amazed at how good nearly all start to sound as your system evolves. | |
| Muralmans' amps reviewed Ultra Audio. Whimby, help me out. There are exactly two Fire preamps in existence. I have been told there are more on the way soon. I have one of the two on loan. Other than the builder, I am the only one to have heard this particular preamp. There is one othe... | |
| Muralmans' amps reviewed Ultra Audio. Whimby, I did not start this thread. I do have a system thread, like a lot of other people. The amps and preamp I am using is better than anything I have used in the past. I have used Pass Labs MOSFET gear and it is good. To all witnesses here, th... | |

| Muralmans' amps reviewed Ultra Audio. Whimby, I'm sorry if I seem rude, but the way to check membership is to click on your monicker. I did, and got, "Dec. 2006. One thread answered."Sogood 51 is right. There certainly is no veiling, and I don't pick up any 2nd order harmonics either. |
