My understanding they are not folding and will be going for some time
yet

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Digital Active Speakers

2014-11-13 Thread Mike69

I use AVI ADM9.1 digital actives and find them fantastic.  Clean
effortless and powerful sound and great value.  They are the first
speakers I've had that I haven't wanted to upgrade.

 I'm looking to buy a new stereo and want to go all digital as far as
 possible. All my music is ripped form CDs and served via a Touch and a
 Duet.
 
 I'm thinking to connecting the Touch to a pair of these: -
 
 http://www.genelec.com/products/8260a/
 
 The 8260A Smart Active Monitor (SAM™) is a masterpiece in
 electro-acoustic design. It features Genelec's proprietary Minimum
 Diffraction Coaxial (MDC™) driver.
 
 The 8260A combines outstanding three-way monitor design with Genelec
 state of the art AutoCal™ and Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM™) control
 network technologies. GLM allows to automatically align every monitor on
 the network in terms of level, timing, and equalisation of room response
 anomalies. Together with the 8260A breakthrough MDC driver design,
 Genelec MDE™ and advanced DCW™ technologies provide accurate imaging and
 outstanding clarity and definition of the inner details of the music.
 The 8260A is the most sophisticated monitoring solution for recording
 studios, post-production houses, digital mastering facilities, radio and
 TV broadcasting.
 
 I may even treat my self to a Transport as well.
 
 Anyone have experience of these speakers or the manufacturer in general?

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter wish list...

2009-11-10 Thread Mike69

This would be my list - 

Digital input selection buttons on the remote
Ability to rename the digital inputs
Second Toslink digital input (as it is by far the most common)
Ability to act as a server for both local and network files
Directly drive any active speaker
Quality headphone jack

Keep the current display
Don't make it look like traditional hi-fi

 You can get them from HDtracks and Linn records. That is the main reason
 I would buy a transporter. Crutchfield has a deal right now for 1800 you
 get a transporter and a squeezebox controller. It is very tempting. I
 just wish I knew if you can hear a difference in higher sample rate
 audio.

I have tried some of the special event recordings from Blue Coast
Records - they sound excellent to me.

I bought a pair of these for my father in law and was surprised how good
they sound - very cheap.

This review compares the sound and finds the squeezebox to be slightly
