| Harbeth vs. Tyler Yep, gotta agree with Muzikat on this. Harbeth uses real wood, similar to Daedalus (sp?). It's a different way of thinking (from a speaker design standpoint) from veneer and MDF, but cheap looking?Sighhhhh - too much of the world thinks that real ... | |
| Sonos turns your house into an ipod well, I just set up a simaudio/sonos system, and i beg to point out some pos/negs. Negs: It took me 4 hours of pro help to get my computer set up so that the ext. hard drive/router/sonos/various (pc)software worked well together. I have the sonos ... | |
| Have you seen Eric Clapton at his best? If music is meant to convey and evoke emotion, then I agree Derek Trucks is "the greatest living slide guitarist". Ry Cooder leaves me cold, and always has.There, I perpetuated the argument! I once heard BB and Eric do a joint interview, where the... | |

| Need Help Combating Power Amp hum sounds like you've got toroidal transformer hum - look for my thread titled "best tube pre for bryston 4BSST", where some folks put links to articles about this. I also made myself nuts doing away with it!I still have some equipment with toroidals... | |
| Best CD player money can buy ? MBL, Nagra, Naim? How about Meridian, or SimAudio? Or Wadia?Of course, EMM or dCS,as well as Esoteric (Teac) but they play SACD as well. | |
| Rogue Zeus Amp - Anyone heard this? Hiend- that's one big hunk of metal to lug in twice! I'm not sure what the "Rogue magic" is, but the beauty of tubes is the ability to change sonic signature by using different ones. For sure - as with all equipment, you must arrange the pieces so... | |
| Rogue Zeus Amp - Anyone heard this? Hiend2 wrote" not a lot of life to it." I respectfully disagree, but then I've rolled tubes to get the sound I prefer (which is very lively, BTW). Half of these tubes came from Rogue (the Marks define Great Customer Service, which is no small matt... | |
| Rogue Zeus Amp - Anyone heard this? I'm hearing it now. I love it, it's not going anywhere. I've had it for about a year. I've done some tube rolling (driver tubes) to tune it the way I like it. It is part of my primary system, and I consider that system as good as I've heard - cert... | |
| Where did tracking error go? When I left the vinyl world, linear tracking was what I was using.Not that I'm going back there, but from what I'm gathering - linear tracking still is offered? I haven't seen any such turntables advertised or in person. | |
| Tubes and Rock and Roll, Can they go together? I'm doing things a bit differently - SS pre (Simaudio) with a big tube amp (Rogue). PMC speakers.I can rock the neighborhood! From Allmans Bros, to Moe, to the Who!I am also a guitarist, and tube (guitar) amps are the only amps I own, so I figured... | |

| MOON I-5 versus KRELL KAV 400XI I have never known the Sim Audio products to be dry or dark sounding - at least in my side by side tests with Bryston, Ayre, Pass, and Cary (SS). All were separates though. I have never compared Krell to Moon in a meaningful and real test however.... |
