| Is my cartridge the problem? The cartridge is not the problem, it's the arm. Your tonearm is basically an entry level unit; although it may track the Denon 103 and other more expensive cartridges,it will not track them well enough to fully realize their potential.Save your pe... | |
| Which is better - S/PDIF Coaxial or AES/EBU Depends on the transport, dac, and cable. The transmission and receiver chips are different for AES/EBU and S/PDIF; that's why the same transport/DCA combo usually sounds a bit different with AES/EBU and S/PDIF. | |
| Can I put receiver and CD player on top of my sub? Chadnliz says: I think some here are not being helpful, just answer this guys question.Like you did? :-) | |
| Can I put receiver and CD player on top of my sub? >>Can I put receiver and CD player on top of my sub?<<Only if it has lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s Hi Newbee. For the record I don't want my comments regarding the Quad's deficient bottom end taken as a complaint. The 88 and 89 are world class speakers and I enjoyed my 88's immensely for 3 years. However, they are what they are, and to truly ap... | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s Onemug: Those were honest and heartfelt "smiles". No sweat!! Jeff can be as irate and/or stubborn as he wishes but the general consensus of reviewers, retailers, and users is that 88's sound better. Here's another example of bigger not being bette... | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s OK Onemug. I just find that name calling, opinion or not, reduces the effectiveness of any argument. We can agree to disagree, and that's a good thing, so long as it is conducted with civility. All of course IMO. :-)))))))))) | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s JeffreybehrI've read your posts and reviewed your system (as shown in your profile) and find it difficult to take you seriously. | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s OnemugName calling? Insults? Coming from you, I'm crushed. :-) | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s The bottom line is the 988 is an overall better sounding speaker than the 989, bottom end nothwithstanding. Period. | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s Kw6With the exception of the 88's slightly more liquid mid-range and and a more focused presentation, the 88 and 89 are virtually identical in sonics. I suppose that the extra panels permit the 89 to go a bit lower but it is barely discernible and... | |
| Markering of CD Edges I've found that green markers work best on SACD and blue on DVD. However, red is best on "redbook" which makes sense to me. I've tried all of your picture recommendations and can't hear the difference. Should I look into a new transport? Thanks in... | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s Auditioned both and bought 88. More focused and better mid-range. Bottom end difference between the 88 and 89 is insignificant as you will need a sub or ideally a pair anyway. There is no reason to spend extra $$$ for the 89. | |
| what subs for merlin vsm-mx >>Fremer didn't give it a positive review.<<Big deal. I wouldn't lose much sleep over that. | |
| Modded Players Bias in Listening >>perhaps another stock unit would have accomplished the same thing.<<When buying modded equipment one must consider the base unit and mods performed. I recently heard a stock 7 year old Sony XA7ES (available used on Agon for under $10... |
