Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] 2 weeks without LP's!
Oh yes! I need my vinyl fix! Just the physical act of carefully removing an LP from its sleeve and placing it on the turntable is pleasurable. Could never say that for a CD (which is why I've taken to my Squeezebox so easily - and will be installing a Duet later today :o). And the sound - I agree, it is less fatiguing. Even with, perversely, FLACs of vinyl . . . It all comes down to, IMO, psychology and the way our brains interpret signals from our senses. Which is why audiophilia is such a can of worms!

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Squeezebox 3 and Mark Levinson DAC
Hi Dave. Have you compared the Krell to the MC402 yet? When I bought my amp the KAV-2250 was on my short list. I chose the Classe CA-2100 because I thought it had a smoother sound with my Thiel speakers. I never got to listen to a McIntosh. Its interesting that you like the Apollo better than the TP. I was hoping that there was a reasonably priced DAC out there that would be at least as good as the Apollo. I, too, love the convenience of the Squeezebox, but I dont enjoy the sound as much as I do from the Apollo. My goal is to get the same (or better) sound from a Squeezebox/DAC and then sell the Apollo. From what I've experienced (see above), almost any DVD/CD player paired with a good DAC will produce a very good sound.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] 2 weeks without LP's!
Well you asked for it. :) I think vinyl is laughable. Utterly ridiculous. The last time I heard a turntable was at a hi-fi show a few weeks ago. A piece of classical music was playing and as soon as the pops and crackles started I walked out of the room directly. Totally off-putting and just unacceptable for realistic reproduction. Maybe not all vinyl makes that noise, but the fact a vinyl loving exhibitor thought THAT was acceptable speaks volumes about the tunnel-hearing vinyl crowd. Maybe if there was an analogue format that didn't have glaring and frankly anachronistic short-comings then I would give it a second listen. This is only IMHO and I realise YMMV.

[Blows smoking pistol barrel] :) Darren Dear Darren, I agree with you that pops and crackles are inconvenient, but the truth is that vinyl lovers are more than prepared to live with those seldom annoyances just for the real and incomparable pleasure vinyl gives 99% of the time. As with digital you have to live 100% of the time with fake sound floor and digital sounding lows and highs, among its other problems. Playing vinyl has become a pleasurable ritual for me, from the selection of the album, removing it from the sleeve, looking at the album art, cleaning it, turning on the TT, brushing the stylus, fixing the record clamp, lowering the arm, LISTENING, repeating steps to change to the B side, LISTENING, removing the clamp, the record, and putting it back into the sleeve... So yes, maybe vinyl is more difficult and inconvenient, but usually it is from the most difficult things that we get more pleasure out of. Of course I dont play vinyl all the time, when I have friends in or my family is in the room, when I want to play music that was not released on vinyl or when Im exhausted I have the Transporter, which also gives me great listening pleasure, but I realized that this pleasure last max 2 hours. You should give it a try, audio shows are the worst place to audition equipment, go to your dealer and seat quietly in the audition room, and then Im sure you will begin to understand why digital just hasnt cut it...yet.. -- GuyDebord Verity Audio Tamino X2 wired with v/d Hul Inspiration, REL Strata5.

I heard a high-end Mc system in the store on Focals and it sounded great. The Krell has a different house sound. I originally bought the Krell due to space considerations and didn't think the sound of the Mc integrateds was all that good. The Krell made about 20% of my music sound out of this world - I mean just delightful. The other 80% I had varying degrees of success. Anything with compression or boosted highs - wow - the Krell let you know it and not in a good way. I concluded one needs $5k or greater in the source before the Krell going to sound good over a large range of recordings. Basically you need a source that's true to good recordings and fixes or at least smooths over the bad ones. The TP doesn't fit the bill for that purpose. After I bought the MF, it made most of my recordings sound good but I lost that steller 20% and missed it. I don't care about coloration as long as it sounds sweet and musical hence my choice to move to the Mc. Further I'm going to try to TP straight into the amp bi-passing a pre. I think you're going to be feeling the pain with Theil's just as I do/did with my Aerials. Both are what I would call detailed speakers. I've heard Theils sound good with tubes and smooth sources but suffered in the same way as the Krell caused when they've been connected staright to an accurate source. I think you made the right choice with Classe' for your current setup. But, yeah, any digital input to a good DAC would be ok IMO. The DAC is where the rubber meets the road. It's going to come down to the DAC. I'm trying to avoid an outboard DAC but the next one I would try would be a MF Tri-vista dac.

I also experienced ALOT of issues with it playing back files - it would play 4-8seconds and stop, skip the track and try another. These same files playback fine through Foobar2000 or the Transporter so I'm not sure what was happening but definitely not acceptable for a $8950 AUD product.
