| Is system synergy worth having matched components? @stuartk X2 | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) It is not about Class A or D. It is about sound quality. If you want to hear a very good Class D amp, check out the TAD M2500; 95 lbs and sounds truly amazing. I have it and the matching preamp and E1 speakers. My end game core system. | |
| Do good power cords have to be stiff? Audio Envy. Both the P series and the M series are very flexible and sound quite good. | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread Gentlemen, I think this is the Audiogon (two post above) we all want to see. Happy Sunday to you all. Now I gotta get back to my listening session! | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread I knew, before I started this thread, that Gestalt Audio were dealers for Hijiri. I just wanted to gather more info and user experience on this cable line. As was mentioned by another, I too care about the folks on this forum. I've learned a good ... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread Wow, I was here just over an hour ago and then come back and the thread just blew up. I understand your pessimistic view ozzy, I do. But you have certainly made it known in a number of posts - your questioning of grannyring's integrity, as walters... | |
| Sony SCD-777ES, Oppo UPD-205 or Marantz SA-KI Ruby I’ve heard the ruby player a few times and it just sits at my dealers. The SA 10 is the one you want. Of course, YMMV. | |
| your first system- @4krowme "This is when I learned that if want something bad enough, you have to work for it. That lesson payed off very well." I wish the more current generations would learn this lesson. No offense to others, just saying nothing should be free. ... | |
| your first system- What started my journey was an old table-top AM radio my uncle gave me at age 6 or so. One day I was listening to it and laying on my bed, I reached over to turn it up and pushed it off the night stand - I heard a breaking of glass and that was th... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread @cd45123 To clarify, for the last year I have been using the Audio Envy $179 P2 and the $279 M3 power cords. I like them and as I noted before, they easily bested the Isotek $1k power cord. As many, including yourself, say that Zavfino is better... | |
| your first system- Great topic. My first two systems were MCS or Modular Component Systems back around 1974 or so. Don’t remember much about the model numbers but my second system had a MCS 3233 receiver, 33 WPC. Had MCS speakers, turntable, cassette deck, headphon... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread Lots of great comments in here. Keep them coming. I believe that @kimurastanley also has some Hijiri. If you'd comment, that'd add value. Thank you. | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread Gentlemen, I do appreciate all your comments and concerns. All valuable here. Please, let's keep this on topic and cordial. Honestly, I never thought that this thread would go over one page, but glad that there are those out there who have contri... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread This is exactly the feedback I was looking for. Very much appreciated. When folks like grannyring, lak, wig, & lalitk all report fairly similar results, and some of those users also having used Audio Envy and Zavfino, you can have a better id... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread @lalitk I was afraid you were going to say that. As Bill says, that is some rarified air for sure. |
