| Can anyone recommend center ch. for Shahinians? Holzhauer, unfortunately the room layout will not allow me to hang a Diapason or Hawk module off the wall or ceiling. The back wall is also home to a number of pieces of artwork and the ceiling supports the track lighting structure for the art (ye... | |
| A somewhat unusual request for PrePro help Sean, I had already asked Richard about this. If you may not already know, his position is driven first and foremost by what is good for music. In that regard he is NOT a believer in a center channel. I already knew they offered nothing in the way... | |
| Better then Proceed CDD and AN DAC1.1x? Chris, can you describe the sonic dfferences between the CDD and the 37? | |
| A somewhat unusual request for PrePro help Yes, I saw the pictures. There're a couple of things that look a little familiar there (bg)! I'll have to give Dick a call about the new DEs. I have a friend who has the Hawks, and one of the things I was afraid to admit was that, while the single... | |
| A somewhat unusual request for PrePro help My Shahinian brother (Holzhauer)! You bring me news I did not know. I have a recollection of the new tweeters going in, but when did the Double Eagles get this indicated redesign?Also, can you describe the new 100W monos? Is it "Bedini high bias A... | |
| A somewhat unusual request for PrePro help Sean, is it possible to use the center for movies but then deselect it for multichannel music? I assume this would depend on the prepro being used. If that's the case I would maybe go that route, as I have heard MC music a number of times (on a fe... | |
| Better then Proceed CDD and AN DAC1.1x? Stereo, is the CDD built like the PCD - a sort of cube shape? | |
| EAD lovers: tell me about the $10K TM Sig Classic Michael, does that mean that the CAL did not (does not) have a 5.1 analog bypass? | |
| EAD lovers: tell me about the $10K TM Sig Classic You interest me, Iam. Can you describe your impressions of the difference between the EADs and the CAL? | |
| Are any of the newer DACs better than BB PCM63s? Yes, that has been going on for quite a while (the mods). And one of (if not the) first things to be modded is the power supply. That and (in extreme mods) the replacement of part or all of what is usually a monolithic output stage with discrete c... | |
| Is 24/192 all hype? Thanks for that, Sean. It is as I suspected, but it's good to hear from another person. | |
| Transport recommendation for EAD DSP7000 Not quite sure yet, El. I won't be sending my 7000 in until maybe next week or the week after. I am in the process of emailing details back and forth with Greg over at Boelen. I should have said I "will be" having it upgraded. Sorry. Once I have i... | |
| EAD lovers: tell me about the $10K TM Sig Classic I'm not sure exactly when (I'm sure others here could say) but EAD as it was when the DSP-7000 and DSP-9000 were invented is not the same company that's around today. EAD USA is now really Alpha Digital Tech. I guess technically the company that w... | |
| EAD lovers: tell me about the $10K TM Sig Classic Yes, I am well aware that EAD is out of business. You interest me with the CAL; which EAD have you compared it to? | |
| Are any of the newer DACs better than BB PCM63s? Hmm, we seem to have a difference of opinion here, gentlemen. I know very well that there's a lot more to the sound than just the DAC. As you pointed out, Alex, a well executed design is necessary along with a good DAC. So how do we know when we'r... |
