    Constellation Audio - I am dissapointed

    I am posting to you from the future. In a few years Constellation will release the Andromeda balanced phono stage that is perhaps the finest sounding phonostage. Be patient and wait for it.

    Transparent Opus Gen 5 vs Transparent Opus MM2 mini review

    I went from Transparent Ultra MM2 for my system to Reference Gen 5. Major improvement was accomplished! More quiet, more clear, more resolution, more accurate and musical sounding. A very real tangible improvement giving much audio enjoyment.

    Rockport Cygnus Loudspeakers

    The tall Rockport cygnus cabinet is reclined backward. The highly directional tweeter as well as the other drivers are all pointed upwards. A very poor attitude position for drivers. Timing is also effected with the clumsy positioning of all drivers. Soundstage projection is adversely affected...

    Rockport Cygnus Loudspeakers

    Overall the Rockport Cygnus is a real winner. I am elated to own a pair. I cannot at this time even find something to criticize as I can find no real fault with any aspect of the Cygnus’ performance. As I finalize placement and get over 100 hours on the speakers, I will update everyone on any...

    lamm m2.2

    I bought new the ML2.1 amps with the Reference L2.1 preamp. Lots of cost to purchase this gear. Much disappointment. Whereas the sound was lush, the reliability was miserable. One by one, each amp died. Then finally, even the L2.1 failed to turn on one day. I had to send the gear back in their...

    Sasha 2 vs. Alexia

    I have many hours auditioning the Sasha DAW and the Alexia 2. The Alexia is in a different price level. It has a larger lower woofer for greater base extension and emphasis. A big plus is that Wilson has made improvenment in the crossover to make the Alexia Series 2 more amplifier friendly by...

    Nordost or Transparent?

    You found Supers to sound muffled, not clear, and not deatiled? Are you talking about your automobile muffler or a piece of wire? Your post is specious at best.
