    Cambridge Audio 851N versus Marantz ND8006

    I can't speak to the quality of sound from the Marantz. I love the quality of sound from the Cambridge 851N. I have it paired with McIntosh Amp and preamp and various speakers with the use of a Russsound speaker selector switch which allows use of six pairs of speakers simultaneously. What...

    Audio Research Technology Model 2200 Speakers

    Thanks for the info KFA888. I guess these were ahead of their time considering the fact that they have been around long enough to have the surrounds on the woofer almost completely gone. Until I pulled the front covers today I didn't know what they needed because the sound wasn't bad. I...

    Audio Research Technology Model 2200 Speakers

    Yes I kind of came that solution, that they are not the same as Audio Research that was affiliated with McIntosh Labs. So I just pulled the front covers off. In a word YIKES!!! They need to be reformed an probably other stuff as well. Definitely need to find a speaker repair shop that can do...

    ESS Speaker Repair

    Does anybody have any suggestions where to get ESS speakers repair in the Central Florida area? They have the Heil tweeters which seem to be fine, but will not stay attached to the cabinet and rattle around in the speaker cabinets. The shops I have contacted from Orlando to Tampa either do not...

    Looking for information on Music Streamers vs DAC'S

    Ended up getting the Cambridge Azur 851N. Downloaded Tidal and have not had easy time operating. So after talking to the people at Cambridge USA technical support I downloaded qubuoz and have been operating with ease at half the price of Tidal. The sound using qubuoz is amazing to me. The...

    Tidal Premium or HiFi

    I have Tidal and Qubouz currently on my new Cambridge Azur 851N. I had been trying to decide which to go with after watching this thread. With the help of my son we downloaded the Tidal app the other day. This morning when I finally had time to compare I couldn't get the Tidal app to work...

    New Bluesound Node vs Cambridge Audio Day Magic 200

    OK so I went for the Cambridge Azur 851N. Have not had time to get familiar with this. I was able to listen a little last Sunday using free trial of Tidal with Master recordings. Need to find which streaming service I'll end up with after spending a little time trying several out.

    Bluesound updates the Node

    I had been considering the new Node 2 and then the Cambridge CXN- V2 made me think it is the way to go based on reviews, particularly on sound quality by the owners of the Cambridge unit. Does anybody have any thoughts about the pros and cons of these two devices head to head?
