| Beethoven Symphonies - best perf + sonics on CD I have the '63 von Karajan 9 Symphonies Remastered which is much better in sound quality than the earlier '63 set. I also have the entire Furtwanger Berlin set, plus a few choice individual ones from '53 (Vienna)...each carefully remsastered by sp... | |
| Krell FPB 350Mcx's enough for THIEL 7.2's + CS5i's Thanks, David...good luck and pls keep us posted! | |
| Krell FPB 350Mcx's enough for THIEL 7.2's + CS5i's DAvidstingray...sounds good! What CD player(s) are you considering? I am not an analog guy so unfortunately can only sit on the sidelines there and watch the game. | |
| ...differentiating top D/A's sound impression. Teajay here wrote pages and pages on the 'flavors' of DACs...a good read which covers a lot of this ground. My two cents is you may wish to listen to a few NOS DACs (NOn-oversampling) as a start. Zanden, Ypsilon, Concert Fidelity are 3 great DACs ... | |
| Krell FPB 350Mcx's enough for THIEL 7.2's + CS5i's Great stuff, David. It is remarkable what can happen when you put a piece of SOTA equipment into your system. It improves in ways you were not expecting, and it reveals subtle aberrations you did not quite hear were there...but only appreciate aft... | |

| Best single-malt Scotch... Hi Sunnyboy1956 Agree the Hibekki 17yr is good stuff. My favorite is the Yoichi 20yr which my wife got me when she was in Japan. BTW, i just picked up a Springbank 21-yr. I managed to get 2 last yr...have kept 1, and will keep the 2nd as well. | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? Interesting, Elberoth...how does MSB compare in your opininon? I think you've Scarlatti at home if i am not mistaken. Any comparisons are welcome! | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... sounds great, Kennyt! Congrats! | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? good call on Accuphase. | |
| Unsatisfied with Esoteric K-01: Alternatives? For an all-in one option, you may wish to audition the Audio Aero La Source. Was compared side by side with Zanden DAC and it did very well. the Audio Aero was used in both cases as transport...ie, Audio Aero La Source on its own, or BNC out to th... | |
| Review: Concert Fidelity DAC-040 DA converter Hi PS68...did you decide on your transport yet? | |
| Interconnect recommendations Second hand? I like Transp Ref if you can find it at the price...Audioquest Diamond is a classic and well below your budget. Good luck. |
