| Owners of "Giant Killers"? I'm not sure if the APL Denon 3910 at $5000+ qualifies as a giant killer, but it equals some digital giants I've heard at more than twice the price, and it's tremendous in it's latest iteration with 4 DACS, Upsampler, and other optional goodies. | |
| Can HI FI components really make music? My system has spoiled me. I now usually prefer to listen at home rather than see live shows. Invariably, the sound at home is better than the sound at the live venue, and I don't have to listen to folks coughing and talking during the performance.... | |
| Channel Islands D-100 Amplifier CI Audio offers a 30 day return policy. You pay shipping both ways and a 10% restocking fee. | |
| Owners of "Giant Killers"? That's high praise for the ack!Dack!, Marko445Rar1, thanks for the PrimaLuna Prologue 2 info, as well.I'm surprised there has been no mention of the new generation digital amps? | |
| Owners of "Giant Killers"? Mitch2, despite the tone, your reply is scarily close to what I expect might be the truth. I've used Q-tips and the "other brands", and the other brands can't begin to measure up to the performance of Q-tips.Thanks for those who have posted about ... | |
| Owners of "Giant Killers"? Marko445, what DAC did you buy and what did it replace? This is the kind of info readers of this thread want to know. | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone I've followed this thread carefully, but haven't posted much. A little too close to home, I guess. Pat, if you make the trip to Howard's place, I'll do whatever it takes to be there, too. Thanks again for the invite, Howard. | |

| 50ft lengths of speaker cables,suggestions? Canare Starquad 4S11. $.69/foot at Markertek.com. I once used 30 foot runs terminated with WBT spades.Also, do a thread search for Canare, and do a member search for "Sean". Sean has a suggestion in one thread for speakers wire that is similar to ... | |
| Western Electric Gold Lions???? I looked at the website, and I am unclear whether the price of $1700/quad is for the original M.O.V. Genelex Gold Lion or for the new reproductions. An original quartet can be purchased for significantly less than $1700, and makes the value of the... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? Muralman1, as long as you continue to beat the drum of the H20 ad nauseum, I will continue to offer alternatives worthy of consideration.I carefully read the 6Moons review, and I came away with an impression different than yours.I appreciate your ... | |
| What's a Good Match?/ sacd/cd player If you're only interested in stock players, then I cannot offer a qualified opinion.However, if you're limited to the three machines on your list and you'd consider a modification, then I'd suggest having Dan Wright do his Absolute Truth mod with ... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? As a distant observer, Ar_t's stereo amp and the H20 appear to be similar in concept. A listening session with both would be informative. One might also include the CI Audio D200 monos, since they also use toroids. | |
| DK Design VS- Reference vs Signature Newbee, you and I think alike. | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? Thanks for the clues, Pat. I was a bit lazy myself by not doing the search. I can understand your reluctance to contribute anything that might be construed as a sales pitch. |
