HowdyPerhaps you are confused: I post here, not at AudioGon. Why would you assume anything about what I think based on what you read there? Perhaps you need to check your sources. Let me help:
My first post on the subject here:
http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/general/messages/432798.htmlIn the following note particularly my statements "I just don't like people spreading rumors, bad mouthing companies and ... " in response to Thom Y's post, "I just don't like people [...] putting words in my mouth." in response to Alex's post on AudioGon and "I'm not trying to be evasive, but I didn't have the time to properly listen to the differences of the equipment that was there and won't publicly comment till I have listened with a variety of material and plenty of time.":
http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/general/messages/432818.htmlHere's my implicitly promised A/B:
http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/hirez/messages/225320.htmlPerhaps you were confused by Alex quoting me out of context on AudioGon (a copy of which is in http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/hirez/messages/225315.html.)
If Alex hadn't misrepresented what I said I wouldn't have responded to Jwm's "I agree with Alex and find [the Meitner] lean in the mid's" in http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/hirez/messages/225459.html saying "Alex's boxes never quite had the same boogie factor for me as the Meitner." I just don't like people quoting me out of context giving the impression that I feel something else than I really feel.
I always try to find something positive to say when people ask for my options and then if they insist on more details I try to give them constructive criticism. In the case of Alex's Denon I do indeed stand by my actual statement to him that "The Denon has more body in the bass (without loosing details) with makes the DAC6 sound leaner." (which isn't quite how he quoted me, namely "It is very interesting to me that the Denon has more body and more bass which makes the new EMM combo sounding leaner.") I also told him that I liked the musicality of the DAC6 better, that I thought that the Denon was rolled off in the highs (even tho Mike's system was tipped up at little at the time) causing the ambiance of the room to disappear and that the Denon seemed to be limited by its DACs and sounded quite "PCMish" (not in a good way.)
My wife's comment after Alex left the room was simpler: "Mike, keep the Meitner."

P.S. Is that your real name or is it derived from the pool trick shot players "Stefano Pelinga" and "Francisco Bustamante"?
