| Does HiRez really sound better? I believe the question should be Can it sound better? I believe it can, however it often doesnt. For me it is not worth the cost as I can purchase several CDs for the cost of a Hirez download. | |
| Belles 350a or Mccormack DNA -1 Deluxe? Truly liked this thread. Much great advice given by those who know via experience. Have heard both amps, however never owned either due to budget constraints at the time. | |
| Help with a secondary system My situation is much like yours. I have primary system in a dedicated room in the basement and a secondary one augmenting video and providing background music in the living room. I own a pair of the Pioneer speakers and believe them to be quite go... | |
| Should I switch to a preamp with balanced outputs +1, Yogiboy. | |
| Jolida, Glass FX Tube DAC III vs Fusion DAC Pre Been following your post. Good to hear a success story! Congrats. | |
| System upgrade advice Vjb, I think that Zd provided a very good response to my latest post. I also agree that it is likely the Paradigms are not to your liking, as they are bright with an 'aggressive tweeter. I owned the Studio 20s however had them mated to a Vincent ... | |
| Help with speaker cable under $500 for new system I also agree with ZD on this. Let your system break in and take time to get to know it. Then try cables. Congrats on the new system! | |
| A whole new meaning to "live" music I wonder if they would sound brighter with a white mice? | |
| How Do I set up a 2 Way system, for Movies/Music I have never owned the OPPO however based on what I have read in this forum I believe the Oppo 105 and integrated amp combo would work fine. Not sure of the need for XLRs. What is the power requirements for the PSBs. | |
| System upgrade advice I do agree with much of ZD posts, however I cant help but believe that regardless of what you do with the rest of your system some dampening of the room via use of carpet and pad, curtains, and some acoustic panels at primary reflection points wo... | |

| New member and potential seller question +1 Elevick. When I started I provided my phone number so that prospective buyer could call. Sold my amp within a day. | |
| Phono stage matching - how critical I have always like the sound of HOMC cartridges over that of MM into MM phonostages. They seemed to be more exciting and dynamic. Must add that I was always dealing with ~$300 cartridges. Cant speak to those in a higher price bracket. | |
| Preamps for $300 to match with B&K st-140? Wow! Resurrecting a 12 year old post. Had a ST140 mated to a Pro10 for 25 years. Served me well. Drove Vandersteen IIs and then Sound Dynamics Ti3s. | |
| System upgrade advice Yes! The room. I am not familiar with the Proceed pre, however feel that the Rotel/Paradigm might be a too bright match. Possibly a warmer sounding amp might be in order as well. Voice the room 1st. |
