    At Last! My new baby has been delivered?

    Thanks for pointing out these real world user issues, like you I'm hoping NAD can produce software upgrades to solve them. Looking forward to your comments on sound quality and Dirac experience.

    Alsyvox planars...prepare to sell your Magico's, YG's, Wilson's, Cessaro's. Maggie's, and all others!!

    Dr. Vinyl used a 30 W PP tube amp from McGary on his Tintorettos in a small room and I can't imagine bigger/better dynamics from them, the McGary amp is also very fast and treads the tube/SS line perfectly, a very synergistic combo.

    I agree with christoph, the German Physiks speakers are wonderful.

    Quest for speaker upgrade

    I've heard David's Valentina recently at a friend's house in Annapolis. They are refined, coherent, and detailed, but they don't escape the box sound entirely as they have 2 cone woofers in a box, and the electroststic isn't dipolar, the back wave is captured. You might give an Emerald Physics...

    Quest for speaker upgrade

    reverendo, Please take the time to consider the best sounding magnetic planar speaker nobody knows about, the GTA 2.5 or the current GTA 3.0 from GTAW in New Jersey. The link is; http://www.gtaudioworks.com/. I own the GTA 2.5s, and the 3.0s are only planar w/o any built in subs. The NY audio...

    Equi~Tech vs Torus

    Where to put CPT Balanced Power E=Q devices A quick email to CPT gave me a surprise answer, plug your PS P10 or other conditioner directly into the wall outlet, plug the E=Q into that, plug your equipment into the E=Q cord/device. This allows your equipment's transformer better use of the...

    What cables are you using in your system ?????

    I'm not sure whether to call my CPT Equi=Core 300s cables, or conditioners. The E=Q 300 , rated for 300 watts load, is actually a Balanced Power device using a proprietary transformer to split the 120V into 2 out of phase 60V halves, and when they are recombined the non zero summed noise is...

    GT Audio Works GTA 2 Planar Magnetic Loudspeakers

    We were easily hitting those levels on peaks, as a line source the volume level falls off less with distance.

    GT Audio Works GTA 2 Planar Magnetic Loudspeakers

    Please don't jump to the conclusion that Berning's 30 watter will not be enough. John, do you play rock loud, or jazz/vocals at reasonable levels? The 25 watt Class A David brought was really enough, except for the rare times you really want to jam out to a song at ear damaging levels. And...

    GT Audio Works GTA 2 Planar Magnetic Loudspeakers

    Just had David's amps on GTA2s David Berning just visited my house bringing 2 pairs of monoblocks, his production 200 watt ZOTLs ( Class B), and a prototype Class A version on the same chassis rated at 25 watts. He hooked up an oscilloscope so we could see if the 25 watt amp was being driven...

    GT Audio Works GTA 2 Planar Magnetic Loudspeakers

    I own an early pair of the GTA2s and love them. Magneplanar and ML fans should try to audition these and find out how much dynamic excitement they are missing. He has made some dramatic improvements to the GTA2s, and the pair that bonzo75 heard is the current design, transparent, punchy, focused...
