System based around 120 - Robert - 22-Dec-2015 I'm looking for recommendations for a system based around the Devialet 120. Suggestions please for small stand mount L/S and CD transport, mains cable and speaker cable. Budget is value for money, say up to £3000.00 for L/S and CD. I have a wide musical taste, but in particular I like artists such as Keith Jarrett, Eva Cassidy, Guy Garvey, Arvo Part.

Looks like a choice between Atohm and LS50's for my budget. Anyone done the comparison? Thoughts? RE: System based around 120 - Robert - 22-Dec-2015 Ideas on CD transports would also be appreciated.

Although as a suggestion, the Cyrus CD t. A fine transport, and you are not paying for a DAC that you don't need or want with a Devialet. There are probably dozens of other options though. RE: System based around 120 - Confused - 22-Dec-2015 Another thought, the AES input to the Devialet is considered to be the best of the connection options. There are a few players around with AES output, some of the Roksan units for example. RE: System based around 120 - Baldoun - 22-Dec-2015 Hello, Le 120 hasn't got AES input.

Thanks for correcting my error, facts are good! RE: System based around 120 - hk6230 - 23-Dec-2015 (22-Dec-2015, 20:57)Robert Wrote: Thanks, Confused. LS50 is great. RE: System based around 120 - Pim - 23-Dec-2015 And try the Technics SB C700 too. Looks like an LS50 wannabe but according to Stereophile it's 'better'. http://www.stereophile.com/content/technics-premium-class-sb-c700-loudspeaker-page-2#lDKDxv0iQ8DTjEGb.97 |
