    Pioneer A-70-K

    Yes, my thinking exactly regarding the two separate transformers in the A-70. That is one for the preamp and the other for the power amp if I understood it correctly, which I did. I don't think that the other features are that important. So I concur that the transformers are probably the key...

    Pioneer A-70-K

    I need some advice myself concerning the issue of A-50 vs A-70. Have pretty much decided on the CD player PD-50 and had the A-70 on a short trial period during the weekend. Absolutely, I was impressed by the A-70, a clear and open sound that really raised the bar for my speakers. However...

    Pioneer A-70-K

    This was written 16 januari. Have you, or anyone else participating on these forums, tried it out since then? Maybe even gotten it for your personaI Hifi. I would like very much to hear a little review of it since I'm in the process of going with the A-70 myself. If I do decide to go with A-70...

    Headphone amp with NAD320BEE & Sennheiser HD 600

    These last couple of days I've been preoccupied with a headphone amp-issue, which by the way is something that has never been on my mind before. As of now I am skeptical as to possible improvement. Skeptical mostly because NAD 3200BEE, according the opinions or reviews, has a high quality...

    NAD, Pioneer, Rega P3-24, Audiotronic CM3

    Not really, not at the moment. There's a clip on youtube, not very good quality since I recorded it on a mobile phone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPI5WA0-g1k

    NAD, Pioneer, Rega P3-24, Audiotronic CM3

    My recent addition has been the cables that I bought a couple of weeks ago. Also I had my CD-player in for repair. The speakers might be unknown to most of you but they are amazing in fact.

    How many times do you listen to an album?

    Don't think my habits have changed that much. I still have some records that I keep playing because I just can't stop. For instance I listen to Ommadawn by Mike Oldfield on a regular basis, a certain amount of Pink Floyd, like Echoes on Meddle, Tom Waits and quite a few of Bob Dylan albums. On...

    Dust in amplifiers

    Andrew Everard: The only real problem might be a greater propensity to catch fire if anything goes wrong inside the amp, as dust is highly combustible. If you really want to keep things clean, unplug the amp from the mains, let it sit for an hour or so for capacitors to discharge, take off...

    Dust in amplifiers

    I have been wondering about dust in amplifiers, in mine in particular, which is the NAD C320BEE. Sorry to say I've never taken off the top to look inside it. (1) How do they look after several years in there? Is the dust that is bound to creep in there unhealthy or dangerous in any way for the...

    NAD C545BEE vs. others

    Actually I repaired my NAD C521BEE this time for the price of 1 400 SE (211.049 USD). The laser was down to 30% they told me so it was in a pretty bad shape. This was done mostly to save some money now and still be able to play, but I'm still planning to replace it later on, in a couple of years...

    NAD C545BEE vs. others

    The amplifier as I said is the NAD C320BEE, so whichever CD player has to go with that. The NAD C521BEE is considered as a particular suitable match. I have a Rega P3-24 Turntable. The speakers are the Audio tronic CM3

    NAD C545BEE vs. others

    Don't know what to do, since my NAD C521BEE stopped working last week. I've had it approximately 6 years although I don't know exactly at the moment. All of sudden it started to squeak a little bit and then I tried with another CD, which started as it should but then it jumped and stopped also...
