I like the Dutch actually, and will call out Bo on his innacurate nonesense (to NOT do so is simply wimpy) until I get tired of it. Paul...really..."semitonically?" (huh?)..."walls of neighboring rooms?"...you are utterly wrong. Non identical walls help cancel standing waves. Placing speakers in unmatched acoustic boundaries does not necessarily remove the soundstage image originally created by the mixer's careful use of panning faders, it merely alters the balance of it (not necessarily a good thing, but that's what ACTUALLY happens). I like to listen to an accurate stereo image (as close to what I feel the engineer was shooting for), and don't need to use corners (note: some serious audio freaks LIKE corners...a lot!), but please don't try to pass this stuff by this crowd as some here actually know what's what. I think this discussion is going very well!
Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution?
I have an Ayre CD player, BADA Alpha DAC, deHavilland Mercury pre-amp, CJ MF-2500A amp and N802 - am looking to upgrade amp.
Would like to hear views on Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution.
Not married to tube or SS..
Always wonder about Stereophile recommended components such as Aesthetix Atlas, Parasound JC-1, CJ LP-125 and the likes. I would pay about $5k on Agon so there are some limitations.
Thanks.
