After 5 years in this game with changing equipments when butget allowed, my system now can produce the music I like. I listen mostly to jazz (Diana Krall, Partricia Barber,.. ) and my loving Vietnamese music (I am Vietnemese). Sometimes Rock ad Classical. The best achievement on my system was the time when I installed all the bass traps. They make music floating in my room with a vast 3D soundstage.
Welcome to all opinions on how to improve my system more.
I have audio in my laptop in the form of wav format. I use once in a while with my system and sure sound pretty good. I personally can't hear the difference between redbook cd and wav or aiff format but I can hear a huge difference between mp3 and cd. I believe that the components use reflect on how good the sound is.
Hi Highend64. Thanks for the comment. It is very nice to know you. I am still thinking between cd transport vs computer audio. Have you ever thought about computer audio? Calvin
Nice setup Dangcaonguyen. I like how incorporated acoustic treatment to room. Nice job! I am also looking for a cd player since mine doesn't work anymore. Do you have a budget for a cd player?
Hi Any of you familiar with the wavelength cosine dac. I am thinking of getting a decent transport to match with it in the future. What transport you reccomend to use with my dac if my budget is about $500-$700 used. Thanks. Calvin
Analysis Plus works well in my system. Dali Helicon now has the punch in the low end with incredible mid and highs. ONE thing I like about Analysis Plus is customization of connectors. MC275 requires a barrier spade of 0.32" wide or 0.04" thick. Interconnects provide all the details you need for great sound from the music.
Thank you Lapierre. I love the sound house of every Mcintosh component. I saw that you have all Mcintosh too, and much better than me. Congratulations. I used the Owen Corning 703 and 705 (2x4 2" thick) for flat panels. For the tube traps, i use Oc703 too but they made it intented to use for heat isolation system. I was spinning Frank Sinatra when i took the pictures. How is the Analysis Plus associates with Mcintosh Components. Thanks again for the comments. Calvin
Thank you Returnstackerror. I was forturnated to surf through the Ethan Winer Bass Traps webstite. With little effort I found out the place selling the OC703 near my house. After the first 4 traps on the sides of the speakers, I started to recorgnize the importance of the room in a stereo system. So with the little step by step i have built my room treatment as you see it now. Do you reccomend any transport i should look at in the near future? My budget is about 500 to 700 used. Are your room treated as well? Do you buy it or diy? Thanks Calvin
