| Box speakers that sound like Electrostats? Interesting you mention Paul Bolin. The last I heard, Mr. Bolin uses the Apogee Duetta Signature as his reference speaker. His word, that a particular dynamic driver speaker can emulate electrostats, is well worth the listen. | |
| Northern California Hi Mrpoindexter, too cool. The IRS V is a classic killer Infinity. You must have a very large room. I have never heard one, but I read a great review printed in Audio, I think in '92. The review was written by Anthony Cordesman titled, "A search f... | |
| Rega Planet or Cairn Fog I second the Jolida vote. | |
| Where R U????? Anybody in the Sacramento area, we have a good group going. | |
| Rega Planet or Cairn Fog If the Cairn is anything like the Planet, then shame on them. the Planet is way old technology. We compared it to a whole slew of new players and it just sounded dull in comparison to all, even a new Pioneer 47. Some four years back, yeah, it was ... | |
| Recommendations of CD player for my system Here is something new to consider. The Jolida 100. the Planet sounds like a vitrola next to the JD 100, and it only costs $900 new. It's tubed outstage will augment your electrostats beautifully. I use one for my Apogees and Pass equipment. I woul... | |
| Cheap Bryston active or Creek OBH12 passive? Good set up so far. By all means DO NOT use a cheap Bryston. I know you can get them in your price range, but if you stick to that ceiling, you will need to try passive. I use a pre amp that offers both active and passive. I normally use the passi... | |
| Ok this will be a good thread. Danvetc is correct. I use what works with high standards, regardless of price. I found a relatively inexpensive CDP that does everything I expect from listening to live performances. I bought my speakers for little more, but are sublime. Then I ha... | |
| If i had the money..... KF- you know this, Apogee Scintilla <1ohms - the one and only.I'm using two twenty amp dedicated circuits and a Pass Labs 600 to power them. Pass Labs assured me it would only take one 15 amp circuit, but I thought, just to be safe... | |
| Ok this will be a good thread. Asa - Reporting in - No detectable alchemy showing up on my nonsense meter so far. ;) | |
| Ok this will be a good thread. Subaruguru (I own two Subarus) very good and LOL. | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Nrchy, at least you are on the right track now. The Krell is a big step up from what you were using. Now for the CDP. | |
| Shanling, Jolida, Cary, Tube, SS can anyone compar Fs, there is a vacuum of info on the Xindak except that is a tube unit made in China. What tech info can you provide us? | |
| Pass X 250 vs. Classe CA 301 The final decision Brulee, now I understand where you are coming from, and I fully respect your opinion. I, too am a tube fan. I haven't tried Pass X amps without tubes feeding it. One thing I like about the Pass is that it so graciously passes on tube characteristi... | |
| Pass X 250 vs. Classe CA 301 The final decision Brulee, and your alternative? Meaning no disrespect to the afore(not)mentioned ?amp?, it does not follow reason that the Pass, which dominates in dynamic range and instantaneous quickness, cannot handle minute bursts as well. Because you haven't h... |
