| Appreciate recommendations for SS preamp purchase So it sounds like your first priority is transparency.I would try an Edge Si-1m or Musical Fidelity A3.2cr for your listening preferences (or, for a little more, the Musical Fidelity A308cr is a step up in that department). And the Bryston BP-25 i... | |
| Appreciate recommendations for SS preamp purchase If you already have Bryston gear, you can consider the BP-25 for probably slightly more than your $1K limit. I've never personally liked the Bryston sound, finding it a little too sterile, but many people do.There are plenty of other choices, incl... | |
| Best Integrated Amp You Ever Heard? Totem made an integrated way back when. It was an ugly thing, shaped like a semi-cylinder. But it sounded fantastic (especially for a SS integrated amp to someone who has a clear preference for tubes). I've never heard the Totem Forests sound any ... | |
| Best Bang 4 the $ Intergrated Amp For SS bang for the buck, I've been partial to some of the NAD offerings for the past several years (I second the 326BEE, above, at around $400 used). Another alternative that I like is the Music Hall Mambo ($500-650 used), a warmish SS integrated... | |
| Last generation receiver to pair with oppo BDP-95 AAnative, I understand your motivations for looking for a pre-HDMI receiver, but audio and video processing technology has rapidly improved over the past few years. You might be well off going with a suggestion like Bill had above. The ability to ... | |
| Integrateds with DAC? John, lack of a USB port generally isn't much of a problem. There are plenty of USB to S/PDIF converters out there. I use the Hagerman HagUsb (or something like that) in my office system, which uses the Mambo. I also have a Squeezebox in the offic... | |
| What are some good tube amps that rock? KT88's? ASL Hurricanes should be able to rock quite well. I believe those monsters are around 200W.Michael | |
| Integrateds with DAC? This question comes up periodically, so you might check the archives for other answers.I'll add the Music Hall Mambo to the list of integrateds with the DAC.Michael | |
| Anyone using Squeezebox server on Mac OS X? Yes, you're right, I can relatively easily add space to my old Linux box. But the limiting factor at some point may become the horsepower of the machine, although it doesn't take an enormously fast machine to function as the Squeezebox Server. And... | |
| Need Help in having Itunes Tag 1 Tb of lssless Wav Wloeb, that's nice you were able to do that, but what about classifying the genres of music in your collection? How did you handle compilations or soundtracks? Also, the year of the disc publication, composer, conductor, etc wouldn't be there.I ju... | |
| Mccormack DNA-1 describe the sound characteristics What speakers are you using? I demoed the DNA-1 in my system about 10 years ago and would never have described it as fatiguing. It's a solid and well-respected amp, and is capable of a firm bass and articulate mids. I just found it to be a little ... | |
| Price for ARC PH3 SE and PH5 I can't answer the second question (how they compare to other offerings in that price range), but the first question is easy to answer: Look at the Audiogon Bluebook for typical pricing and trends for virtually any product. Also, follow the ads fo... | |
| Rainmakers vs Hawk I've listened to both the Rainmakers and the Hawks. In fact, I had the Hawks in my HT system for a couple years. The Rainmakers have a surprisingly full sound for a speaker of its size, but does so with mid-bass exaggeration and some degree of con... | |
| What time do you wear? Achilles, yes I do still enjoy the seamaster more than ever. It really has a classic look, with a well-designed clasp and face. It's truly a joy to wear. Of course, my Citizen titanium watch also has some of those desirable attributes, but is not ... | |
| Integrated amp and low sensitivity speakers Musicrover,I haven't heard Monitor Audio speakers, but I am familiar with the other brands. None of them are necessarily difficult to drive. For instance, the Totem Arros sound amazing with a Jolida 302b (a 45-ish watt tube integrated in your pric... |
