| Favorite reviewer? Favorite is the one I'm reading at any given time. I (almost) always appreciate their effort. That being said, I do like John Potis, and the fellows at sixmoons.com. | |
| Has anyone heard a Classe DR-15 ? I have heard a Classe DR-25 -- similar amp with more power. Full, slightly warm sound, gobs of power. Mated well with my Martin Logans, and I've heard it sound great with Thiels. They really fall into the same "house sound" as the Classe CA series... | |
| Non classical piano based music recommendaiton Well, Liz Story on Windham HillEvans and Monk, certainly. Herbie Hancock's Maiden Voyage. Modern jazz pianist Jessica Williams is terrific. For rock, try Ben Folds. Piano-driven smart rock music. | |
| budget Cables / Interconnects recommendations? Hmm. I'll have to try Signal Cable. In the meantime, I'm very happy with my Zu Cables bought on eBay for a good price with a 60 day trial policy... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view I'm going to assume that you took a snippet of his conclusions. I'd be interested if there were any supporting impressions. However, I don't see any above. Did Mr. Colloms say why he came to these conclusions? All I can say is I'm running a pair o... | |
| Discounts vs. Agon listings If it were an amp, I'd say you could do better, but I'm thinking you're getting a package with a cartridge --- needles wear, and so getting a new setup has a lot of value to it. Plus, well, new is nice. I don't think you'd find a Scout in good con... | |
| Radiohead's new business model: It's brilliant, there are probably millions of guys like me who would never shell out full fare for a Radiohead album, but plenty willing to pay a buck or two for the download. | |
| Your favorite Kieko Matsui CD Moyo is my favorite, but also the newest. White Owl has great sound and impressive dynamics, but it's a quite dense -- if Rush or Yes were playing contemporary jazz, they would make White Owl. I don't think you can go wrong with any of here CD'. I... | |
| the smoothest sounding speaker Don't forget the Magnepan 1.6's. They certainly present one sonic cloth, and yet can be very resolving. When slightly underpowered (not hard to do with the demanding load of a Maggie) they certainly seem smoother in that they won't have the dynami... | |
| It's been said before, but I'll say it again... I've had some great interactions, but one thing to note is that any piece that's a really good price goes within a few minutes of it being posted. I've seriously lost out of products that have only been posted for 6 minutes. So, often on my initia... | |
| Question about ML SL3 and Accent i ???????Help??? I am the original owner of a pair of SL3's from 99, and have never had any problem with the panel. These things are bulletproof for all I can tell. I can't compare them to the Accents, but I can say that the SL3's do require plenty of clean power ... | |
| Best Value Speaker Model for the Buck? Let's not forget the Magnepan 1.6's are the first step on many an audiophiles road to nirvana. | |
| Under Appreciated Jazz Piano Players It seems like I'm the only one who's ever heard of her. Very Monk inspired, but more lyrical. Check her out if you haven't. | |
| Classe DR-25 worth buying? I have the Classe DR-25 and love it. My system: Audio Research LS-9Theta David Bel Canto DAC2Transparent Super interconnects Martin Logan SL3 speakersThe Martin Logans require a lot of power, and the Classe never fails to deliver. Additionally, th... |
