| My Best of CES Excellent show report, Spencer. Bravo!I'm always happy to see when someone shares their impression of the sound that they come across. Things are even better when the writeup is impressive, as yours is. Seemed like Bobby has the whole show thing d... | |
| Sovtek 6550 - Can they really be THIS bad??? I have been in contact with both Pierre Gabriel - North American distributor, and Avi Brand - US service rep, along with the former owner in regards to the amplifier.In Avi's estimation, he knew this particular amplifier, and the person who modifi... | |
| BEST AUDIOGON POSTS The best post to me will forever be the guy who began a thread, in which he asked a question. He later submitted a post, answering it, gave out an approximation of where he lived, said he lived in the same area (imagine that) in the same post, and... | |
| what is the REAL deal with DK Audioari1, in my opinion, the BAT has at least as much slam as the DK. And, truthfully, have you actually HEARD a Jadis D30, DA50S, DA60, or DA88S? Or, for that matter an Orchestra or Orchestra Reference? Please explain to me the bass, or anything... | |
| Worst Name for A Piece of Equipment Fried loudspeakers - don't know why someone would want a speaker that had been used by headbangers etc. at lease breking levelsAudiostatic - the last thing I want to hearBroken Lamp Amp Company - love the name, but if the lamp broke, who knows wha... | |
| Best Sounding Red Book CD Changer Under $400 Hi, Hi_hifi. Audiogon and eBay seem to be the best place to look. I think you just need to be patient, and lay in wait. You could also post a "Want To Buy" ad here on Audiogon.And, yes, the 333ES has played every CD variant I have tried in it with... | |
| Jadis Eurythmie - Anyone ever listen to them? Arthur, you are a LUCKY man, my friend!I just bought a DA60, and should be able to be listening to what it really sounds like on Saturday. The DA88S seems like an update of that, though they seem to be offering both products (just like they still ... | |
| Granite Audio amps Oz, congratulations on the new babies! I predict you will really love them. Oh, and another couple of nits to pick on the Granite 657. The remote is absolute crap, but that seems to be the way of high end CD players. WHY can't high end audio compa... | |
| Advise on acoustic treatments to fix boomy bass. This is going to be a different kind of suggestion, but, hey, I seem to go against the grain.Despite the "conventional wisdom" that you NEVER stuff a ported box, I find it does away with most, if not all, of that boxy sound a ported speaker can ex... | |
| Granite Audio amps I guess if I submitted this post two weeks ago, one could accuse me of trying to sell my pair Granite 860.1 amps. But, since I have already sold mine and have no relationship to the company, I think I can speak about the amps from a unique perspec... | |
| Who else prefers 5751s and why? I know this guy DEFINITELY thinks the 5751 is far superior to ANY 12AX7 variant http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/faq/joes-tubes.htmlMaybe you fall into the same camp? | |
| How trustworhty is Used Cables? Though I have never bought anything from UsedCables, they are a local high end audio dealer, under The Cable Company banner. I can say that those who I personally know who have bought equipment from them feel them to be among the most upstanding p... | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System Well, JD, I must tip my hat to you for turning this thread from one of trivial bickering to actual discussion. That's a RARE thing indeed in both Audiogon and Audio Asylum. As I alluded to above, you are a special audiophile, and we are graced by ... | |
| Best Sounding Red Book CD Changer Under $400 I highly recommend looking into a Sony SCD - C333ES.You can pick one up for $350 - $400, it plays CD/SACD, and is a 5 disk changer. Surprising sonics, to be frank. In my system last month, it embarrassed a very well regarded $2500 audiophile playe... | |
| Future of this hobby? As I am often of a contrarian perspective, so too is the case here...Despite all of the angst and hand wringing in this hobby, I feel that high end audio is well positioned for some substantial growth in the next 25 years. Also, I agree with a lot... |
