    Dương Hạo lắc đầu, nói: “Lý viên ngoại xem, có nhiều dân an cho tiền tài làm nhà cửa. Trước khi ta đi, Quan Gia đã có sự sắp xếp đó, nếu có người làm xong nhà cho dân chúng đến ngụ cư, triều đình sẽ cấp vốn để xây dựng nhà cửa, những thương gia làm theo yêu cầu của dân chúng, cái này có lợi lắm, há không tốt sao?”

     

    Dương Hạo còn chưa nói hết, Lý Ngọc Xương liền vỗ trán, giật mình tỉnh ngộ. Lời nói của Dương Hạo kỳ thật có chỗ cần nói thêm, ví dụ nói quan phủ nơi đó sắp xếp cho dân chúng di dời này, thì có thể

  2. I must be one of least qualified to give audio advice on this site, but I have been searching DAC's for awhile now, and the mhdt Paradisea and Havana DAC owners sure seem to be pretty happy with their purchases. If you do an internet search, you will find lots of talk, comparasons, and reviews. The cost is very reasonable, and I found little to no negative feedback about these units for the price.
  3. My AE 5's are ok but not great. I am not using anything special with them right now, which could account for my lack of enthusiasm. The AE 5's are connect to my computer using whatever sound card came with my PC. I was thinking about putting something together and got side tracked with remodeling my house and buying new furniture. I was wondering if you could tell me what the AE 5's sounded like before you had the benchmark and what they sound like with the Benchmark. In other words, a comparison of the sound with and without the benchmark. Thanks and enjoy your new system Rich
  4. Hey Dan, I also own a pair of Audioengine 5's and I am interested in hearing how you like the sound of your new system after you have some time to listen. Thanks Rich
  5. The more I think about and research the Outlaw rr2150 the more I like the unit. I am about 85% sure this is what I will buy but still open to suggestions. My slight hesitation is will I ever want to go surround sound. Outlaw sells the Model 990 preamp and processor for about the same price. I was wondering how difficult would it be to use the Outlaw rr2150 as part of a surround sound 5.1 with my computer, since 5.1 is what is on my computer. Could you tell me if this possible or does it even make sense to think in these term. In regards to the Outlaw rr2150 is this a "warm" sounding amp (What ever that means) because I have read in several forum discussions the B&W speakers tend to be a bit bright and are best driven with equipment that "warms up" the sound. Thanks Rich
  6. I was reading the reviews on the outlaw. There are all positive. I think I will definitely give this unit serious consideration. All the reviews are about 3 three years old. Do you know if they have updated or changed the outlaw in anyway? Has some other company tried to come out with a competing product? How would a DAC play into your system recommendation or would it even make any difference? Thanks Rich
  7. Now that I am looking at it I can see I misspelled his name Van Alstine. Yes, the Van Alstien Transcendence serie II is a two channel amp. I used two these amps bridged in the early 1990's with a pair of B&W 801 matrics. I sold everything and kept one Van Alstien Transcendence serie II or modified Halfer DH 500 in my closet the past 15 to 16 years or so. At this point, I don't know what I am going to with this amp (selling it/ keep it). I would like to at least try it out again. I think I paid around $1600 for this amp in the very early 1990's maybe even in 1990. I haven't had much of a system since than and everything has change so much it's exciting but mystifying. Anyway, I have caught the desire again to have an adequate sound system. You are also correct about the Audio Engine 5a's speakers being internally powered. These are nice computer speakers, and actually, they are what sparked my desire to build a decent system again.
  8. The whole shebang would be nice. I may want to move the system out of the bedroom and into the living room at some point. Basically, I am not committed to any particular set up until I understand my options a little better. This is starting point for me. I was surfing for info and happened upon this site, which seems like the best fit for me. I had the initial goal of integrating my computer with a sound system but wasn't sure how to choose equipment to make that happen in the sensible way. I have never post on any forum before ( well YouTube once) and thought I give it a shot. Thanks Rich
  9. From your two responses I am getting that you like the DAC1 PRE, but I may still be better off starting with the av unit and adding a DAC later. Can you recommend a few AV units for me to consider keeping in mind that I do want to build my system as time goes along but will most likely never spend more on speakers than mentioned in my first email, which is about $1300 for the B&W 683 plus whatever the subs cost. I guess what I am saying is I want to keep the equipment campatable. Don't need a10k pair of speaker for $100 dollar amplifer kind of thing. Hope my question aren't annoying. I really don't know all that must about audio, but I am working a little each day to learn. Thank for the help Rich
  10. Since the Benchmark DAC1 PRE is a preamp and a DAC, do you think the DAC1 PRE would work for me using only an amp and computer combo ? I was reading on another forum that one can use the Benchmark DAC1 PRE for speakers and a sub with no problem. Also, I was reading that with the DAC1 PRE you can use your computer for all your home theater needs, esentially bypassing the need for an AV unit. Again thanks Rich
  11. I am still wet behind the ears when comes to understanding this world some are calling audiophile. I am not sure how to choose sound equipment wisely, but I do know what I can afford. It seems the more I look, surf, and read, the more confused I find myself. It has become apparent to me that not even the audiophiles can agree on what is worthy of consideration. I guess one audiophile's meat is the other audiophile's poison. Regardless, given my obsessive compulsive nature, I am in need of more opinions and more advice. I have a new, very up to date, computer with a blue ray drive (can list specs if important). I own an old Van Alstien Transcendence serie II 120v, 60hz, 1800w max. This is a modified Halfer DH 500. I have pair Audio Engine 5a"s and a new 37'' Series 5 550 1080p Samsung tv I use as a monitor/tv in my bedroom. My buget 2000 to 2500 US dollars, and I am willing to add a little more in maybe a year from now. My goal is to have a Home theater/stereo using my computer as part of the system, which is where the confusing really starts for me. I don't quite understand how all this comes together, like what is exactly is needed DAC, AV, preamps, amps, computer, and other stuff. I am considering two options. Option one is a pair of B&W 683 and some type of AV system and purchasing a 12" sub later. I am not sure how DAC plays into this setup or what else I need. Option two is B&W 685 with a 12'' B&W sub and some type of AV system. I am not sure how DAC plays into this setup or what else I need. Can you please give me your opinion on what to buy, and how to configure a system, given my budget, that will get me up and running. Please tell me the equipment you believe would give the best audio quality bang for the buck system on my budget.
