    New toy

    Yotiao, you bought it already or just demo? That's quite a bit of $ to throw on a DAC. Thought you were going for the Lavry?
  2. The 2006 version would be above his budget if he was looking at the HD580 and 2003 DT880 I think. Of course if he could stretch it to the 2006 model, then that would be best.
  3. You might want to consider the 2003 DT990 instead. It should be about the same price level as the 580, and IMO more resolving.
  4. what 'toy' is that? :drool1: Its the new Scheu DAS No2 table!
  5. My latest toy was just setup last night.

  8. Well that can be easily rectified, you know?
  9. Its interesting to note that the figures so far show Alessandro on par with Grado in numbers. Maybe a testament to Wilson's friendly sales attitude. Oh, and MS Pros for me.

    GS1000

    There are some very loaded ($$$$) users in SGhp, either that or they just jump onto the bandwagon.
  12. Hi Yotiao Is there a link from the main SGHp page to each of the chatrooms? I seem to be missing something here.
  13. You can consider Rotel, NAD, Adcom.

    Give them time, they need some more to run in.
  17. I tried to copy hybrid SACDs using EAC and it can't do it. Is there a solution? Or the CD layer of SACDs just cannot be read? I think the DVD combo drive on my IBM gets confused with the SACD layer.

    GS1000

    My kids have started to learn, and I'm back at it again. So is the G1000 that great? At Headfi they claimed it was a rediscovery of classical music, or something like that.

    GS1000

    Yes, its a thoroughbred German. A Sauter 130 Competence. Specs here. Did you know there is a forum for pianos too? I never liked the Yamahas, there maybe a few exceptions, but generally the touch/tone on the lower registers just didn't do it for me. Kawai has better touch, but there are questions about the longeivity of the instrument. Then I went to this shop in VCH next to the ticketing stand, and the pianos were very well prepped, and the shop owner, Alvin, is a pianist, teacher and tech all rolled into one. If you ever go shopping for any piano, do pay him a visit. BTW which Steinberg did you get for your wife?
  20. Hi Evil Yup, managed to fuddle my way through... I managed to find the Bailey CD data on the web, though the track title is quite long. Thanks anyway.

  22. Did you add in the tube sound plugin for foobar2000? that makes it sound really good. Can you elaborate what the tube sound plugin is all about?
  23. I would like to add my personal thanks to evil for his assistance in getting me setup for audiophile PC audio. This foobar2000 and the EAC thingy work just fine. In fact listening on my notebook with through the headphone socket to the MS Pro, it sounds amazingly good. No need for a portable amp even.
  24. My brothers started it, I followed. It used to be a Linn LP12, Grace G707, Dyna 10x4, Aragon tube pre which needed to be heated up, Audionics power, Mission 700s which was the rave of the British press at that time, What Hifi?
