| Best CD Player - Opinions? An Audio Research CD-3 is probably the best there is withthe CD-2 used being the best bargain in the industry. | |
| Rock albums that sound good on your system? Some of the very best recorded CD's are not secular. TryDC Talk, the Newsboys or a soft rocker like Michael W. Smith. Not only will you be amazed at the recording qualitybut you might even be able to feel good about the message. | |
| Looking for warmth,openess, detail Audio Magic has gotten the job done for me. I now have theSorceror cable throughout including bi-wire speaker cablesand power cords. The system is so holographic that thereis absolutely no need for multi-channel. This line of cableis probably one ... | |
| Thoughts on Legacy Whisper Speakers I auditioned them at some length and was impressed at thetime. Ultimately I went with the Dunlavy Signiture 5(s) andinvited the manager of the store where I auditioned theWhisper speakers. This was a somewhat difficult situationfor him in that the... | |
| What speakers do you recommend? I don't think you can go wrong with either of your considerations, and yet you might want to try the Dunlavyline of speakers. In my 30+ years in this hobby I've notheard better. | |
| CD Player Recommendation? I can vouch for the sonic excellence of the Audio ResearchCorp CD-2. Especially if you like a very liquid tube-likesound. | |
| ARC SP9,SP9mkII,SP9mkIII I have had an SP9 mkIII in my system now for about 6 years.All my componets except(of course) the turntable is fromAudio Research. I'm using Audio Magic Sorceror interconnectsand Kimber speaker cable. Speakers are the Dunlavy SCV(s).I have done a ... | |
| ARC Support No disrespect for what sounds like a very real problem, but I personally have used ARC products for years with incredible results. I've talked to Leonard several times and was treated very well. Actually, in my view, perhaps we should be proud of ... | |
| Recommend me a good psychologist I would contend that this can happen with really any pursuit unless it's anchored by a defined value system. In my case, I enjoy many types of music but am careful to ensure that it's positive and uplifting. In many ways it is an act of worship to... | |
| Cables with the best highs All I can say is to at least put the Audio Magic Sorceror/Illusion on your short list. | |
| Audio Research Convert... I sometime back talked to one of the main guys at Audio Research and he uses the 100.2 in his home system. I mean this guy could be using anything and he chooses a solid state amp from their line. I've heard it and it's real good.How good? Let's j... | |
| Mark Levinson 380S vs BAT 50SE??? I believe that Mark Levinson equipment is, in general, some of the most overated products in the high-end sector. The price/performance is exorbitant. If you at all care about air, lack of grain and especially the 'easy on the ears' harmonic right... | |
| Corner hanging speakers - okay? Weird? I'd say that the proposed set-up has virtually no chance of being a sonically truthful set-up. However, if you like what you hear and it's entertaining, then why not go for it.I have a reference system for critical listening, but from there it's p... | |
| Bit perfect copies I'm using the Phillips dual tray 2X recordable/rewritableunit. Does a great job of making bit perfect copies, but fails miserably as a CD playback unit. This is no big deal as I didn't buy it for that purpose. I think there are several units on th... | |
| How can you tell when tubes are shot? I think there's allot of good advice on the previous posts.I might add that turning the epuipment on/off really is not a problem with the newer design ARC epuipment. I got tired of replacing tubes so I just plan out listening time to turneverythin... |
