  1. So now that i own set of Aego-Ms, will they be good enough for a marantz cdp? Is it advisable to get a marantz amp as well?
  2. How about a Rotel cdp? And how does teh NAD sound? What about for amplifier? As for speakers, will Aego-M suffice?
  3. Haha thanks Alex and guys. But i need more instruction...like what sound signature adn what to expect
  4. Oh... then what about the other parts of the system? Cdp and speakers leh?
  5. Hi guys. I'm looking out for a simple to set up, inexpensive but good home system. Was looking at tivoli's offer of music system, of radio cum cd player, but the concern is that tivoli has great radio but cdp wise...not much to be said? Then there is marantz, but needs additional speakers and amplifier right? And i have NO IDEA about speakers or amplifier selection/combination. And then there's Rotel which i heard is pretty good and all. But there comes the problem of speaker/amplifier selection again... I know the advice would probably be to go listen for myself but time constraints from work really keeps me away and i wouldnt want to go thru the hassle of going from place to place to listen to stuff and not buying from MOST of them resulting in much unhappiness from the shop keepers. Lots of concerns yeah... Oh then i also learnt of the Denon S-301 home theatre set...is it any good? Seems to me to be a one-stop centre for all my needs! But havent heard much of it from anywhere on the net. Thanks for reading this guys. Pls help!
  6. Haha not the bass... more of upgraditis...in general...i'm happy with the bass... The uncle at the shop asked me to go back to him for upgrade cables but i was thinking u guys will probably give me better advice than to go back to him.
  7. I would like to improve the sound of my Aego-M. Pls advice on which cables and WHERE to get them and COST to improve them. Thanks! I have absolutely no idea of cables. An absolute noob in this.

  16. I can never understand why the Heifetz-Boston-Reiner recording is so lauded. Felt Heifetz's version was simply like he was trying to get it over and done with.

  20. Hi! I didn't know there was a discussion on one of my favourite violin concertoes around here! I personally have 10 copies of this violin concerto. A few notable ones are the one by perlman, menuhin and schneiderhan. Having listened to perlamn's 1981 version with maria giulini and the 1990s version with daniel barenboim, the 1981 version seems much more emotive, more passionate, while the 1990s one seemed to me as if he just wanted to get it over and done with. The 1981 version is btw my favourite among all recordings i've heard. Although my favourite violinist is david oistrakh, i cannot bring myself to like his recording with the French orchestra in the "EMI Catalog #CDM7 69261 2 Beethoven and Bruch Violin concertos" recording. Does nto seem very involving to me. I never liked any of menuhin's recordings post-1930s...the dip in his standard of playing was really shocking. However, a 1947? recording (i think, i forgot, i need to dredge it out of my collection) with a green cover depicting him with wilhelm furwangler with the berlin philharmonic was....legendary. It encapsulated the tension of the World War, with a Jewish violinist collaborating with the (then) greatest German conductor and orchestra. Schneiderhan's version with the Deutsche Grammaphone label was good...and it had the rare cadenza from the piano version of the concerto...but i guess i was just biased...haha...i just loved perlman's 1981 version with Maria Giulini too much.
