Wireworld Polaris III vs Tara Labs Air3 Intercon
ive auditioned a few cables from LAT to Signal Cable to Tara Labs AIR 1 to Tributaries and Monster. I haven't heard wireworld but i don't think i need to now- i live in Eugene Oregon, right near Stan Warren- i met him yesterday, as i was audtionin... 
Recom. for a new CD/DVD?
dturbati, where did you find the 963 for sale, i'm having trouble doing so, thanks 
can i use my headphones to judge IC neutrality?
that is correct- as an update, i spoke to Stan Warren who lives here in town, and i'm going to audition his homemade cables- now this is going to get interesting- he charges $50 as well but he cryos his cables- anyone had experience with this? 
can i use my headphones to judge IC neutrality?
i agree Zaikesman- and from my chair and in my system, the sub-$50 signal cable is doing about all of what you say a bit better than the $170 LAT's- interesting- the lay's sounded impressive and dynamic at first, with a plump fullness to the sound... 
How much to spend to beat $1200 10yr old speakers?
Phasecorrect, i agree, i heard the hot rod kestrels a couple years ago hooked up to some cheaper (goldentube) equipment and they were pretty stunning- so transparent, holographic imaging and good clean bass response- i wonder how the new Kestrel I... 
How much to spend to beat $1200 10yr old speakers?
Olivier-your KEF's are pre uni-q, which i beleive is a whole different animal- I've heard differing opinions on the KEF's with uni-q, from those who believe they are polite to others who think they are bright and foward- having never tried any oth... 
How much to spend to beat $1200 10yr old speakers?
i don't know if i need to replace them at all but i might consider it if the concensus is that speaker tech has come far enough in the past ten years that say $600-900 speakers will do everything better than what i have- i listen to acoustic jazz,...

i've got a conrad johnson cav-50 integrated and recently picked up a sony scd ce 775 to satisfy the SACD bug on the cheap 
Modify my scd ce775 or buy external DAC?
the dealer i bought the 775 from has been very nice and is letting me audition some interconnects (they carry Tara Labs) the first ones they gave me are an older model that were supposedly built to smooth out cheaper cd players (Quantum cx is what... 
Modify my scd ce775 or buy external DAC?
SACDmods.com claim that the level of their modded 775 is above the 555, which many of their customers have backed up-thanks for your responses, i'd never heard of the Micromega-by the way, i have some old monster cable interconnects, do you think ... 
used high-end DAC or affordable newer model?
One more thing, i'm having trouble finding any info on the EAD DSP 9000 pro HDCD(there's one on ebay)- I've found alot about the MKIII version, but it seems an altogether different animal- anyone know about this unit or how old it is- Thanks. 
used high-end DAC or affordable newer model?
Thanks for your responses. Interestingly, when i called Tor at Conrad Johnson (I own a CAV-50) and asked him this same question, he said forget about DAC's and go for a new DVD universal player such as the Marantz that sells for $1600 or even the ...
