The core of the ASR line are its two “integrated” amplifiers, the Emitter I and Emitter II, both of which can be had in an “Exclusive” version which, among many other improvements, adds an extra battery operated power supply which completely frees these components from the adverse affect of using alternating current from your wall outlet. “Integrated” in appearance only, ASR amplifiers are actually direct coupled amplifiers with volume control and input selector.In fact the path between input and power section on the ASR is only a few millimeters of silver wire! Less wire more sound. True audiophile products, the Emitter I and II sacrifice nothing for performance, so be prepared for using between one to three sizable outboard power supplies, which are essential to achieve the sense of limitless power and ...http://www.soundbysinger.com/singerfall2009/index.html]]> http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100128-061802 No Author Thu, 28 Jan 2010 11:18:02 GMT http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/comments.php?y=10&m=01&entry=entry100128-061802 http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100126-083316 V-3 which are generally recognized as being the best speakers in their class, the new Magico M-5 simply trounces every other contender in the sub $150,000.00 ranking of super speakers and are just as good and, in most cases, quite a bit better than the few speakers which dare to command an even higher price tag. You see, the Magico M-5’s do everything right. They are unbelievably open and reproduce the full bandwidth from extreme low bass to ultra high frequencies with as much authority as anything I've ever heard, Displaying a timbral accuracy that is simply uncanny and as transparent as a mountain lake, every nuance is there,

every bit of detail, apparent not in an artificial or contrived way, but with that you-are-there quality, which sends goose bumps down your spine and makes you reach for your checkbook. It is no wonder that they are typically back ordered several months!

The M5 utilizes Magico’s proprietary MR-1 Ring Radiator tweeter, two optimally balanced 6” Nano-Tec® drivers, and new 9” Nano-Tec® woofers, making this the first Magico speaker to incorporate a full range of truly ‘in-house’ drive-units. Utilizing one of the most intricate passive loudspeakers ever built, the M5 Retains Magico’s revolutionary ‘tension-coupling’ mechanism,.With their signature 17-ply Baltic Birch cabinet sporting a 200 lb. slab of 6061-T aircraft grade aluminum machined into 73 lb. vertically convex baffle Magico has created the ideal housing for their massive new bass drivers. Intended to completely change the limits of loudspeaker performance, the 2009 Innovation Award winning M5 is the most thoroughly developed and technologically ambitious loudspeaker Magico has built to date .And that may make it the most technologically innovative loudspeaker extant, period!]]> http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100126-083316 No Author Tue, 26 Jan 2010 13:33:16 GMT http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/comments.php?y=10&m=01&entry=entry100126-083316 http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100126-083033

For almost 10 years the dCS Verdi Encore/Elgar Plus have occupied the universally-recognized position as the best sounding CD/SACD playback system in the world. Those days are over. With the introduction of the dCS Scarlatti STT CD/SACD transport ($32,999.00) and Scarlatti SDC d/a converter ($23,999.00) a new standard in digital playback has been set, one which I, personally, would not have believed possible. Say it any way you want, "there's a new sheriff in town"; "the king is dead, long live the king"! Or, "meet the new heavyweight champion of the world". Use any metaphor you can think of to describe a palpable superiority in performance and you are only scratching the surface of how musical and how much better sounding the Scarlatti system is than the Verdi Encore/Elgar Plus. This is due not only to dCS' new advanced algorithm but also to a level of construction quality and parts selection which is an order of magnitude better than its forebear. The Scarlatti transport/DAC are built like the proverbial brick s-- houses. Most impressively, the Scarlatti transport employs Esoteric's finest VRDS/Neo transport mechanism which is available only in the Scarlatti STT CD/SACD transport and the Esoteric P/01.

I have a turntable/tonearm/cartridge/phono stage set up which tips the price scale north of $90,000 and, frankly, I could not tell the difference between 90% of the source material played on the Scarlatti versus my turntable. Yikes!]]> http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100115-145757 No Author Fri, 15 Jan 2010 19:57:57 GMT http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/comments.php?y=10&m=01&entry=entry100115-145757 http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100115-145550 http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100115-145550 No Author Fri, 15 Jan 2010 19:55:50 GMT http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/comments.php?y=10&m=01&entry=entry100115-145550 http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100115-144610
In the past, you could only buy or download music in a highly compressed format called MP3. Now with the advent of a number of new audiophile websites it is possible to download music not only in CD quality but even in HD audio quality (24 bit /176K). That capability wouldn’t mean anything if we were still playing the music from our computer’s soundcard directly]]> http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/index.php?entry=entry100115-144610 No Author Fri, 15 Jan 2010 19:46:10 GMT http://www.soundbysinger.com/audio-blog/comments.php?y=10&m=01&entry=entry100115-144610
