| "Neutral/Clear Amp vs. Dark Amp" Also consider the parasound JC 1 if you can deal with te size and heat. They were very good sounding with my Von schweikert vr 4 sr speakers. | |
| $1000 player or dac recommendation Yeah it would be useful to know if you are only planning on playing CDs if so then I think the biggest bang fir the buck would be with a CD player. The meridian 508 is a really good sounding player. If you are thinking you want a DAC and want a tu... | |
| Meridian / Wadia / Audio Aero describe sound Oh also the ayre d1x would be another to consider. I had that too and I think it sounded better than all of them. I've seen some great deals on those too. If you only wanted to spend around 1000 the 508.24 would be hard to beat. | |
| Meridian / Wadia / Audio Aero describe sound I have owned the Meridian 508.24, Wadia 860x and Audio Aero Capitole Mk 2. Meridian does not have the volume control so it's a bit hard to directly compare but my thoughts are Wadia is the driest and most sterile and could also be considered the m... | |
| "Neutral/Clear Amp vs. Dark Amp" Never heard classe but I have owned the others. I think pass is the best of this bunch personally. I did not care for the ayre v5xe it definitely is not dark sounding in my systems. I do love the k1x preamp though. Sim audio is also very sparkling... | |
| Paul Motian RIP One of the greats for sure | |
| Best Speaker under $3K - New or Used I have had a few pro acs the d15 and D2 as well as the tablette 2000 sig also the vandersteen 2c. I personally prefer the sound of Dynaudio. I have the C4s and have had the audience 42 as well. They have a similar sound and to my ear it is a lot b... | |
| Best amp for Von Schweikert VR4SR mk2? I liked them with the parasound JC-1. I still have fond memories of it | |
| Former MHDT Havana Lovers: What did you move onto? I had the Havana and Bryston in my system side by side for quite a while and I thought the Bryston was better and have that as my DAC in my main system right now. I also have the Paradisea which I replaced a 3500 Wavelength Cosecant a few years ag... | |
| Seeking advice on how to improve my system Ivan you sound like a crazy nut who is trying to play head games with audiophiles lol. Since you said you have a bug to upgrade I would say to try out some new wires. You could buy some used and you won't lose much if you dont like them you can ju... | |
| KEF Blade Funny I think they are very cool looking myself. | |
| which ProAc speaker? I had the D2 the D-15 and the tablette 2000 signature. Strangely enough I had the most enjoyment overall listening to the tablette model and never quite fell in love with the proac sound other than the tablette. They seemed pretty system dependent... | |
| Pure music glitch? I've had nothing but trouble with Pure Music personally. On the bright side they do seem to be very good at trying to help trouble shoot. One thing I did figure out is if you are playing in Shuffle mode then you have to have it showing the next so... | |
| best sounding integrated for under 2500.00 I really like the Creek Destiny myself. I have not heard the Krell but that seems like a good choice as well | |
| Driving Dynaudio Focus 220 IIs I would be picking as high powered amp as possible for use with Dynaudio speakers. I had a set of Audience 42 monitors and they were easily shutting down my 100 watt Creek Destiny after about 1/2 hour of loud playing and this is in a bedroom and I... |
