| internet radio Thanks to everyone for all the ideas. Sure beats watching TV! | |
| Jitter reduction, best device? In truth, Digitalis would be from the Foxglove plant and the origin of Digoxin, a heart medication. Digititis would be the proper audiophile term for an unpleasant sharp and edgy sound derived from digital sources, such as compact discs. Just to b... | |
| Looking for a small bedroom amp I still love my Bel Canto monoblocks and the stereo version is the S300 at $1300, less through Underwood HiFi (Wally). Runs cool, made in the US, beautifully manufactured, very efficient, uses little electricity, (you can leave it on all the time ... | |
| Monitor speakers for Tube integrated? You may be able to use a wide variety of speakers. The variables are how loud, how big the room, how close are you to the speakers, what kind of music will you listen to, will you likely upgrade in the near future. As an example, I am playing CDs ... | |
| internet radio Thanks, Mapman. Is 128-196 kbps the best resolution/bandwidth possible over the internet or is there something better? I am looking at how to maximize the sound. It is very nice to have such a great selection of musical styles. I am picky now that... | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good I also am looking for the best quality in sound. Classical Archives has continuous non-commercial classical music 24/7. They state that their broadcast quality is 128-196 kbps MP3. How does this compare with other stations and are there even bette... | |
| Power Output of Class "D" amps My Bel canto M300 Monoblocks are 300W into 4 Ohms and 150 W into 8 Ohms. Power supply is important but I believe less so than with large tube amps. Even the AC in is less important and doesn't have to be "cleaned", at least for me. I don't think a... | |
| Marantz CD5003 or PS Audio Digital Link III The PSA DL III is a great piece of gear and can vastly improve most CDPs. Since the Yamaha is reliable, the DLIII will reclock the signal, the sound is very pleasing and 3 dimensional. The only issue is the future where we may see very wide bandwi... | |
| Nuforce Icon owners? Reubent, Thanks for the information. My ideal setup would be to run the speaker level line out to the sub. I know that the original T-amp would be ruined in this scenario. I believe it was because of the common ground and shorting out of the signa... | |
| why still buy a cd player? Douglas_schroeder and Shadorne,Thank you both for an interesting and civil discussion. I continue to learn and your posts are interesting, informative and well-mannered. Please keep up the good work. Disagreement is healthy when presented properly. | |
| Replacement power cord for Jolida 1501RC? PS Audio Power Punch worked on my 1501 and is widely available for $50. | |
| Secret messages on LP's? I buried Paul. | |
| budget lcd or plasma: 720p good enough? 720p is just as good as 1080p for 50" and smaller. I can quote numerous reviews and expert opinions that all support this. I just bought a 50" plasma 720p from Sears for $900 (minus 10% if you buy on line with their credit card and have it deliver... | |
| Small integrated LVK47, Nzera, Audiofil-Thanks for all the suggestions. I was initially bummed out about the furniture and not being able to use the components I intended to use, but now it looks promising and maybe even fun to search for the best sound with the s... | |
| Decco from Preachtree audio Sugith,In researching the Decco I ran across this thread. I am considering it for a simple system which is mostly for the large plasma, but I can't stand to have a room without music! How is it going with your new unit? Did they satisfy you with t... |
