I am so tired to try what pre to match with the amp and what cables to match with the speakers. I spent too much time on the trying and matching and now what I only want to do is sit down and listn to the music easily.
The strength: If you got chance to have the Burmester test dic3 you will know the Burmester can play all kinds o music perfectly.
Alberta The appearance of Gryphon is the most beautiful I have ever seen , the sound is as beautiful as its appearance. How did you feel about the sound of Lindemann since you had it over one month ? I put the symposium ultra under the Lindemann without three couplers and get best result.
Audio999: Inna suggested me to go to night clubs more often ,that's why I have to allocate the money. Maybe I can find a used turntable at night clubs.:)
Linkster: yes the Lindemann is all way better than the Adagio but both are great players and I can live with each of them happily. The picture above is the demo of Wilson website.I will upload some pictures of my placement when my friend returns my Nikon. keep tuned.
Both are great players.The sound of Adagio is very neutral,it shows great analogue character. There is no hint of digital fatigue nor harsh or edgy.What it flows is extremely smooth and well balanced.One word to describe this player "Truth". The Lindemann is superior to Adagio in every aspect especially in detail and bass authority but the difference is not day and night.The only thing that I complain about the Lindemann is this player needs two power cords.When playing SACD, the Lindemann is far superior to Adagio and itself plays redbook. I bought the Gryphon Adagio before the Lindemann D680 shows up in the market. .I can't let Adagio just sit on the rack and do nothing, beside the look of all Gryphon gears is so synergistic and I am not willing to sell the Adagio. That's why I use Adagio playing redbook and Lindemann playing sacd.
