@stuartk So above is a list of just about everything I can think of. Power cables and headphones are next on the list. Probably Sennheiser HD 800s are priority and that way I can enjoy more rock and pop.
Mobile Fidelity 24k CDs
Ok soooo here’s my question. Since I upped my amps to the ARC Ref 750s and my ARC Ref 6 to 6 SE. I have been thinking of buying a lot of the Mobile Fidelity 24k cds. What are you guys opinions on them as far as betting sound quality than the standard CDs. Some of them are going for a few hundred. But a lot range from about 40 and up to 400. Now I really don’t plan to send over 100. But even when u are starting to buy a bunch even at 40 to 80$ they really start adding up big time. Oh btw I also have a Rega ISIS CDP that I absolutely love. I don’t do LPs and I don’t stream never wanted to and never will. Not my thing. For the guys that know alot about those Mo Fi 24k CDs please let me here ur options on them good or bad.

@stuartk It does match up perfectly with the Quads but I bought the amp first and then chose the speakers. The entire stereo sounds excellent but yeah, the ASR is my binky. |
@tattooedtrackman The MOFI Cd's are SACD hybrids, meaning there are two layers on the Cd. One layer is a Redbook Cd for standard Cd players. The second layer is SACD for SACD players. A standard Cd player cannot read the SACD layer. Occassionally SACD's aren't hybrids, meaning that only the SACD layer is on the disc but this is becoming more rare and usually only applies to certain labels. The SACD file is Direct Stream to Digital or DSD and it is at least twice as large as the standard Redbook Cd. Downloading DSD files and playing them through a compatible DAC is essentially the same as playing an SACD in an SACD player. |
