Synergistic Research Atmosphere Power Cords.

martyklSo glad you scored! It is a triumphant feeling isn't it? Like being rewarded for keeping the faith in searching for something that after so many years, sometimes you doubt even exists. I'll give another example. When I was young I never bou... 
Durand record weight ha ha ha ha - and other crazy thing
I think the real question would start at, is this the biggest sound quality improvement I could get for $3,500 or less; but maybe it ends at I've already spent money on everything I've read about and can think of, but I still have money left over....

Martykl, FYI SecondHandSongs lists 6 versions of "Pretending to Care", none of which are by Froom. MusicStack has one of his CDs.http://www.musicstack.com/item/571514

Ghosthouse, I have heard that recording hundreds of times but don't recall ever hearing of William DeVaughn. Great memories. Sound a lot better today than it did on the bus in high school.

Could anyone help me find Gary White doing his own composition "Long, Long Time", the song made popular by Linda Ronstadt? 
Music you Hated but now Love
Zimwig, Thanks!!!! I have been searching for a particular Greg Brown song for years after hearing it just once on the radio. Found it on the Red House site. "'Cept You and Me, Babe" on Covenant. I always liked Phish's "Bouncing Round the Room", so... 
Need Small Bookshelf Speakers With a Big Sound
I have a pair of Genesis Physics model 7s sitting in the basement because my wife thinks they are too big. They have some of the best tweeters I've ever heard. PSB Imagine XBs are the largest she would let me get. Thank goodness for the man cave w... 
Looking to buy floor standing speakers in $1000 per speaker range.
I would give odds that if you spend $1,000 on new speakers, you will be upgrading from the NAD pretty soon. There are a lot of great speakers out there that would sound good with the 7225 PE, but it does limit your choices. I think you could get a...

OPPO BDP-103 (NON Darby)
Got to say though, I am finished buying electronics on eBay. Too many unfortunate experiences like "new" components delivered with missing parts just to name one.I am very partial to speakers with a natural finish, Cherry, etc.  Well, I guess y... 
Oracle Alexandria + Premier MMT = ?????
If youse guys/gals are still out there, can anyone recommend any tweaks for this rig? I have the same one and some upgradeitis. Is the hard acrylic mat "better" than the Groove Isolator, as Oracle claims? Any other ideas. I'm using a Denon DL-301 ... 
Best Turntable for the Price - Linn Basik
I've read elsewhere that it's best to skip the Akito, and agree that an Ittok is not worth the cost on a Basik. I am not seeking advice for what not to buy. ;^) I'd love to find a gently used Basik Plus, Jelco SA-250 ST, or AudioQuest/Oracle PT6. ...
