| Verity Speaker Parsifal Encore The new passive upgrade is a great change to an already strong CDP. I have had it for a while now with the new parts and I stand by my original views. It adds more bass...more soundstage dileniation and it fleshes out the nearfield reproduction. A... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1: let's talk? EC is a little slow but the end product is really good most of the time and unbelievable with the EMC. They wanted the money for the upgrade. I can't blame them. I paid for it with a smile on my face. Other people have to eat too. | |
| Verity Speaker Parsifal Encore Wonderful speaker. The Bass is NOT sluggish if properly set up. In fact, I would say it is extremely tight, fast and accurate. They are a little tough to set up however. I have owned both the Fidelio's and the Parisfals. Both were very light in th... | |
| What tubes for ARC LS 5 preamp - 6922/6DJ8 WOW this thread is right up my alley.I have owned an LS5 MK II for the last few years. I recently had it at Great Northern Sounds for the Reference upgrade package. I also run it with Amperex white label 7308's. WOW WOW WOWAll the beautiful liquid... | |
| Elect. EMC-1 Mk II vs. Audio Aero Capitole Mk II ? I have an ARC LS5 MKII pre amplifier and have had great success with the EMC 1. I am not familiar with the Audio Aero player but I would think it would be wise to attempt an in home trial with both players to see which one fits your systems sound ... | |
| Opinions on preamps What are you looking to accomplish with the change out? That would be a good thing to know. | |
| EMC1 mk2 vs Cary 306/200... I wouldn't warrant your player as a dealer if you did the upgrade yourself. To many things can go wrong and to many variables involved when you tell end users to pop the hood. Some idiot would burn out some crucial board and demand a refund. If 40... | |
| Bel Canto EvO 200.2 monoblocks vs Pass X350 I use a pair of EVO's mono blocked with my Verity Audio Fidelios with great results. Obviously not the same speaker you have but a similiar character. I find the resulting sound to be excellent. I also have the EMC 1 MKII and the resulting groupin... | |
| Amp for Paradgim Studio 100 The "faults" of the 100's are a pretty hot treble. Let's not kid ourselves and think the 100's are perfect. They are a great speaker at their price point. The EC tamed the hot treble and did a great job of letting the music extend out from the cab... | |
| What's the best mid-range driver available? The Skaaning or Flex Driver (other commercial name) used on the Verity is a thing of beauty. Fast as lighting with the best midbass I have heard. My two cents. | |
| Amp for Paradgim Studio 100 I had great results using an Electrocompaniet 120 amplifier with a pair of Paradigm 100's, arcam fmj 23 cd player, and the Electromcompaniet 4.6 pre amplifier. The EC did a great job of masking some of the 100's faults and made for a very balanced... | |
| Best sounding preamp-amp for Paradigm Studio100v2 I had a system with Paradigm Ref 100 V2's for about a year and a half. I had great sound with and Electrocompaniet 120 dmb amplifer and the 4.6 pre amplifier. The EC did a wonderful job taming the treble characteristics of the metal tweeter. The m... | |
| European -vs- US high-end Alright Natalie, I agreee with you to a point, as I have owned only Canadian speakers (paradigms and now Verity's) but you must look to your cold weather USA brethren in Minnesota to find one of the worlds greatest High End meccas. The Minneapolis... | |
| Balanced Amps at a reasonable price? All Electrocompaniet amplifiers are true balanced design, and high curent to boot. | |
| Sim Audio Moon W5 vs Electrocompaniet Amp Please insert "sweet" instead of warm. I stand by my previous statements even with the word substitution. I hope Peter Moncrief will forgive me. Please Audiogon ))!!!!!!!!!END THIS THREAD!!!!!!!!(( There are alot more things to do in this world th... |
