| difference between Sony SCD 1 and SCD 777ES And you still call them friends? :) | |
| difference between Sony SCD 1 and SCD 777ES Glen, please send an update once you've listened to the Sony.-John | |
| difference between Sony SCD 1 and SCD 777ES Glen, they say, and I agree, that redbook cd playback is almost as good as SACD. But of course it all depends on the quality of the recording.I think the SCD-1 is fantastic for the money. If, per chance, the owner of an SCD-1 did not think that, t... | |
| What should I upgrade next? I disagree with Soix. I believe the amplifier is the key to any system good or bad. It's a shame that most amplifiers do much more to the signal than simply amplify it.A great amp can make most any mediocre speaker sing wonderfully. But a great sp... | |
| Philips DVD/SACD 1000 player,any good? For whatever it's worth, accourding to Harry Pearson of The Absolute Sound it smokes the $28,000 Accuphase SACD player and dac. | |
| difference between Sony SCD 1 and SCD 777ES According to Stereophile, they are sonically the same and the only difference is the outputs.I own the SCD-1 and I will say that the SCD-1 is more attractive. That's gotta be worth a couple of grand, right?-IMO | |
| Silver Speaker Wire Recommendations? You might even consider a silver / copper blend like Harmonic Tech Pro 9's or Acoustic Zen's Satoris. Not only are they both quite detailed and sweet, but their pricing is even sweeter.For a used 10 ft pair you are looking in the $500 to 900 range. | |
| Best Subwoofer for 1500- 2500???? That is a decent price range for new subs and you could even cut the price in half going used.Perhaps the most musical sub for this price break is the Bag End Infrasub 18 inch subwoofer sells new for $1600 or used for $800. I've had in my house fo... | |
| Safely combining 2ch. and HT. I would recommend that you focus all efforts first on the best 2 channel system you can muster and then add a nice dvd player (check out a used Sony DVP s9000es DVD/SACD/CD unit for about $700) and a musical subwoofer. With that approach, you will... | |
| Best used 2 channel preamp for 2500.00. Check out odyssey stratos at odysseyaudio.com. Read the reviews (including TAS' golden ear award) you find there and then order a monoblock pair for $2k. You should notice the power rating, the speed, etc.. Not to mention the 30 day money back gua... | |
| SUBWOOFER FOR MUSIC At the $800 to $1500 used price range, I would recommend the Bag End Infrasub 18" subwoofer first. Extremely tight and musical sub that faithfully reproduces down to 8Hz. Not many subs out there can even go down to 20Hz much less 8Hz. You can find... | |
| Looking for a cd source for my system. The Sony SCD-1 is a very nice unit. | |
| Long Video or Long Audio?? Definitely choose the shorter audio cable runs. You will also save $$ on cabling. | |
| Speakers to match Audio Refinement Complete? Congratulations on your purchase. I understand that the ARC is quite a little amp and comes extremely highly rated by several reviewers.I'd really like to know what you guys think of the A.R.C. after you've had it a while.-John | |
| What is vibration isolation for? Don't you realize there are over 400,000 earthquakes a year around the world and getting worse every year? They say (whoever 'they' are) the world is constantly shaking!!!!Although the above is supposedly true, the vibrations you are concerned abo... |
