| Jena Labs Symphony vs. Valkyre IC's I've compared and listened to the trio plus, fugue, symphony, valkyre and pathfinder in a few different systems over the last few years. I previously thought the symphonies offered the greatest "value" in there line up- maybe they do- but not long... | |
| Atma-sphere S-30, any users out there? Thanks for the feedback everyone, I am indeed intrigued with these amplifiers, however even at 30watts I think its too much power(my new speakers are 99db efficient) so I don't think I would be interested in the M60's- even with resale kept in min... | |
| New Von Schweikert Models Mark- you should be honored they named a speaker after you :o) | |
| Will Wadio ever make an SACD player? People have been saying SACD is dying for years and yet it just continues to grow- when its not around and there are no scheduled release dates, its dead. As it stands now there are over 2700 titles available with plenty scheduled to come out soon... | |
| New Von Schweikert Models Efficacy- I also own the DB99mkII's and have used a few solid state amps on them so far. They work great, but you don't need to use an amp with that kind of power, from my experience the less power=more musical, this is not a concrete rule, but se... | |
| Life expectancy of Interconnects & Speaker Cable? I figure mine are going to go bad at/or about 7:13am on May 17, 2097. Though I don't think I'll be around then, and if I am I'll probably be incapable of discerning there breakdown as it happens right before me. | |
| How much does your system retail for? I am in the $50k club now- where's my membership card? :o) On a serious note, it seems that I am doing about $10k/year in upgrades- and I am fairly young, so by the time I am 40 I will be at or around the $220k range. Bare in mind that's in today'... | |
| Who makes Beautiful / Attractive Speaker Cables? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. | |
| lower priced power cords for emm labs CDSD/DCC2 ? Both units come with a fairly high quality Kimber power kord, I don't think there would be any shame in just using them. I have not tried them on the emm labs gear but for a resonibly priced power cord the silent source have always proved a good p... | |
| DarTZeel NHB-108 Is this the best amp ever? Bare in mind folks that Mes comparisons were done listening solely to Right Said Freds timeless classic "I'm too sexy". Which is a true reference recording :^) | |
| New Von Schweikert Models I agree, I heard the VR9 room is going to be quite impressive, five VR9's! Emm labs CDS/DAC6e/Switchman, DarTZeel amps all with Jena labs wiring. And the VR4's consistantly impress folks who listen to them, every generation is one step closer to A... | |
| Xindak cables: how good are they? Baranyi- I have listened to the FS1 and FS2 | |
| Xindak cables: how good are they? I have heard/used there cables and was left wondering what all the talk was about. OK but not a "killer value" or anything out of the ordinary- some of there cables get pretty expensive so there are lots of choices in that range. Also grey market ... | |
| Plinius 250 MarK IV vs BAT 500 with BAK PAK Hi Bon- I have experience with everything you mention. I previously owned a BAT VK-500w/bat pak a friend has the Plinius SA-250mkIV and yet another local friend perviously owned the Andra I(upgraded to mkII status). I feel the plinius is the warme... | |
| EMM LABS sacd vs cd Bill- Play your cards right and you might just get that lucky ;) WHAT are you doing posting, go enjoy France!I agree with Cincy_bob when listening to "good" SACD there is no comparison, however, there are some black sheep in the herd. Some people ... |
