| what is a P0 sound like compare to.... The P0s is very rare- Japan only from what I assume. I believe their is only one guy on this board that has one- not sure if he will see your post. I am a big fan of the Esoteric transports (used to have a P1), having just ordered a Spectral SDR 3... | |
| transport w best detail retrieval and 'weight' Platsolos- the Vecteur D2 is good, but the L4 is better- they are extremely impressive considering the price. In fact, I could pick up an L4 for a good deal right now, but am searching for the higher end, and therefore going to try the Spectral.Mg... | |
| transport w best detail retrieval and 'weight' Lgregoir- I agree that the Eclipse is very good- in fact I used to own it for over a year, and it was my favorite of the non-Teac based transports- good call!! I guess I am hesitant to go down that road again, only because of the fact that their a... | |
| transport w best detail retrieval and 'weight' Sattothestars- already sold the CDT2- too late! It will probably come down to the CEC TL1-x vs Wadia 270 vs Spectral SDR 3000... | |
| transport w best detail retrieval and 'weight' Hey Albert- how are you? I have considered the CEC TL1x, but am unsure about the lower registers, as compared to the Teac VRDS clamping system, which I have found to have superb bass characteristics. Not to say the CEC isn't excellent in this rega... | |
| What's under YOUR CD player? Solid Tech 'Feet of Silence'- use under transport/CDP | |
| Coincident Total Victory owners Read my review of this speaker on this site- amazing. In fact, if I could afford them, they would be here, but instead I have the also excellent regular Victory- in fact in my smaller room they are great. If you have a decent-sized room, you will ... | |
| How good is 8000 dollar Sony Dac transport from 89 agree with Buckingham on the dac front, however, I bought an older reference transport, Teac Esoteric P1 ($6k USD in 1988), and it is excelllent! Detail retrieval, air. cymbals have nice shimmer, etc. I have a half decent dac and cabling, so that ... | |
| best CD transport available? Audiofederation- I tried the Drive-1 in my system. It was very good, and it was a slight improvement when serving as transport into the digital 'in' of my AA Capitole MK 1 (slightly better than the Capitole's own transport). HOWEVER, I now own a t... | |
| Review: Sistrum Mini-Minitor Platform Support-SMM 1 Stand Rockhead- depending on the footprint size of your speakers, try the Sistrum SP-004 model- they are now under my 97-lb Coincident floor-standing speakers, and are NOT coming out...I also use a pair of the larger SP-1's under two large tube monobock... | |
| best CD transport available? The upcoming Audio Note CDT-III- look for it next year... | |
| Review: Lindemann D680 CD Player I agree with Avnut- it would be great to see a side-by-side comparison with other top players. Regarding digital, I owned the Capitole Mk I for about a year and a half. It did some things very well- i.e. a wonderful midrange, but ultimately found ... | |
| Elect. EMC-1 Mk II vs. Audio Aero Capitole Mk II ? disagree- found the Gamut clear and extened in the highs, but emotionally it was not there, and the bass? WHAT bass? One of the bigger disappointments I have encountered lately... | |
| Esoteric P2 vs P2s and possible upgrade I have a P1, and Steve at GNS is the only one I would send it to. He says the Esoteric transports like ours are phenomenal post-mod. | |
| Great Northern Sound 860 Statement Upgrade Great review- I have already hooked up with Steve to upgrade my Esoteric P1 transport when funds become available. Sounds like it will be worth it! |
