| Planar/panel speakers to replace Carver Amazings I have owned Accoustat 2 + 2 s, Maggie 3.5Rs and now the bargain tat is not a room divider- Emerald Physics KCIIs (with wireWorld OCC upgrade). They throw an incredible soundstage, as well as excellent bass. Hard to beat for ~$2K | |
| Emerald Physics: Ultimate Bang for the Buck? sfrounds Save your money...Junk! This isn't twitter. You don't just drop that nto a conversation without saying why you feel that way... | |
| Have you ever changed speakers to expereince a different "soundscape" or presentation?? The opposite is true for me. I have owned Emerald Physics KCIIs with WireWorld internal wire upgrade for maybe 2 years, listening through the same basic system for at least 6 months, consisting of Emerald Physics 100.2SE amps and a Parasound P5, o... | |
| Emerald Physics: Ultimate Bang for the Buck? WOW, can't believe I neglected to updateI made 2 serious upgrades to my system since then* Audio Alchemy stereo amp, which has a ton more bass and midbass than the EP100.2SEs.

| Recommendations for CD Player/DAC Combo My highest recommendation would be to get a Audio Alchemy Dac/Pre (both sides are amazing) + a transport. I would order the NuPrime transport from audio Advisor (returnable, but I doubt you would) | |

| Thiel CS2.4 to what? I hope you weren't implying that I make money for doing so. They are incredible speakers for the money. This was made even more evident of late. I replaced my Emerald Physics 100.2SE power amps, and a Parasound P5 with built-in dac. I owned these ... | |

| DAC/Streamers Under 10k - Mytek, PS Audio... I can't speak to Streamers, but, the Audio Alchemy DAC/Pre (and stereo amp) is//are amazing at any sensible price and they have a Streamer | |
| Thiel CS2.4 to what? Emerald Physics speakers play way above their price point, especially if wired with WireWorld (a $500 upgrade on my KCIIs) . Some are available without DSP. I am so amazed with the bass performance that I am selling my 2 SVS Subs (Ultra & Plus) | |
| Which magnepan I owned 3.5Rs and could never get past the door size room blocker physical size. I tried a wide variety of amps, both SS and tube (Rogue 150s), but found them hard to drive. I supplemented the bass with 2 SVS subs (one Ultra and one Plus). Eventu... | |
| Have transports improved for Redbook CD playback? I looked at Jay's Audio transport offerings, I was very surprised that they do not have Toslink | |
