| Well Tempered Amadeus Jim,One more question. What are the advantages (if any) to using the acrylic plinth on the DV500 and upcoming GT model over the Birch used on the Armadeus? | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus Not sure how i got straightened out??Jim, is the GT version of the Armadeus going to have the better looking finish, and use the same plinth as the DV500? Will price be the same? | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus They had both tables side by side. i have been dealing with Alan for several years. great Guy! great store! That was one of the nicest demos I've gone to. joe harley was there and Audio research. Plus live music. great time. | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus Chashas1, Thats what i said. the table is made for Dynavector by Well tempered, to fit the Dynavector arm. it also is alot better looking, it is built to a higher stantard as far as fit and finish. In any case. the table with the Dynavector arm wa... | |
| Sophia II's and Pass Labs etc I have heard a friends Sophia 2 with Mcintosh and Ayre. The Ayre system he uses now is very good. K-1XE preamp and V-1XE amp. I would look into the even higher end Ayre products also. | |
| Are Harbeth S HL5's As Good As Reviewers Claim? I've owned a pr of the HL-5s now for about four months. They have replaced Thiel CS7.2s. At first the difference was hard to get used to. But i dont think i could go back to the Thiels, or most other speakers. I dont find them to warm either. very... | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus I heard the Armadeus with its own arm. The Dynavector arm was on the Dynavector table (Dv500) which is made for Dynavector by Well tempered, and designed for the dynavector 507MKII. Both systems were great. | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus I got to hear a demo about a week ago. Very good table/arm. Dealer carries both VPI and the well tempered so i will hopefully get to hear some side by side comparisons. The killer table of the night was the Well tempered table made for Dynavector ... | |
| Bryston or Mcintosh Amps? I have heard the speakers with Mcintosh 1201s and they were great. You can find them used quite often. | |
| NAD M5 vs Cambridge 840c I owned both players. I preferred the NAD. However neither IMO can compete with either the Modwright (sony or denon) or the Exemplar 2900, or the rega Saturn. I have listened to them side by side. | |
| Tubes or S.S. for Thiel CS 2.4? I've had the chance to hear the 2.4s with several amps. I prefer the krell, followed by Ayre, Mac and Pass. | |
| Jolida JD9A or Dynavector P75 phono stage? Have not heard the Jolida. But have owned the P75 and its worth the money and more. | |
| Sony Playstation 1 for a CD player ??? O.K., after reading this thread, you guys got me. Bought one off ebay today for 38.50 shipped. I told my wife I was going to take 38.50 out of paypal for a CDP, and she said she didnt know if there was enough there. She didnt believe me when I tol... | |
| Top line phono stages with at least 2 inputs Manley Steelhead | |
| Experience with the NAD M5....... The NAD is a warmer and more forgiving player than the Sony. The down side would be, probably to forgiving. The upside would be the NAD has a fuller sound that I prefer to the Sony. I have owned both and think the build quality is great on both. I... |
