| "What's Your Best Price?" One of the best things about these forums is the sense of humor many members have. I don't know about the rest of you, but I am literally LMAO in here from time to time. My opinion is that asking for a best price is not a good way to start a negot... | |

Threw those Wimas away....there is no way I could solder in a 1/8 inch long lead.....put Eton caps in there. Sold all my Nordost cable, and... | |

| dedicated 70's rock system Tvad, you may have nailed it with the Klipsch corner horns. I have replicas, and they certainly have full sound at any level. And not harsh in the high frequencies, which seems to be the bad about 70 rock cds. Just make sure everything in the room... | |
| Rock Concerts through your rig? I agree, but I have an exception. This is of course my opinion, but I have always been impressed by Neil Diamond's Hot August Night. I think they miked and mixed, or whatever, that concert very well, and did it years ago. | |
| Snell E 2+ What internel wire? I suggest Kimber. Look in Parts Connection web site, click the wire and cable button, and go to the bottom item. | |
| recommed interconnects for TT Synergistic Looking Glass, NON-active is one to consider. Around $200 on agon, and designed for analog. My Scoutmaster likes it although I am using a Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood MM cartridge. | |
| Anyone else experiencing the rude highend retailer My high end dealer isn't rude, he is non-existant. As far as I know, none of my components were ever available in the second largest city in Michigan. Oops, sorry, except for Levinson. There hasn't been a two channel demo room in my city in years.... | |
| What is very good imaging and soundstage exactly. Shadorne, you just reminded me of something when you said "in front of the speakers". I have a CD that I borrowed from my neighbor, On and On by Jack Johnson. It must be what happens when there is absolutely no room ambiance. Most forward thing I ... | |
| What is very good imaging and soundstage exactly. Answer to your question, Bob. My room is not treated, but it is not finished either. I don't think I have any problems with reflection. I have started to listen to music in the dark lately because I think I have a mindset that does not allow for s... | |
| VPI table owners, help please. Any one else have a problem with active ICs? I have a pair of Looking Glass active that cause a low level hum in my speakers when the active sheilding is plugged in. Happens only when I use the cable between Scoutmaster and phono pre, or phono pre... | |
| Any one ever change a bass driver on a B&W Sig 800 Couple of ideas for you, John. My drivers are usually still stuck, even after I remove the screws. My way to get them to pop loose is this. I turn an oversized screw, like a sheet metal screw, into one of the holes. Then, with a thick, folded towe... | |
| Anyone Totally Content With Their System? Itball.....I share your obsession....with speakers. I've been building them for several years. My answer to your question is 80% yes and 20% no. It depends on the recording. I can do things with my speakers to adapt them to the music I enjoy, but ... | |
| Can I ever stand to listen to our system again My deepest sympathy to you, Karel. I certainly hope you will find a way to listen to music again. Some good reading for you if you feel like it. Heaven by Randy Alcorn. There is no reason to believe that we will not have our stereo systems in Heav... | |
