| A few systems heard at the Rocky Mntn. audiofest I went to the show as well.It has been many years since I went to one.approx.10 years ago at a Stereophile show in S.F.CA.My reference is live classical music since thats what I've been playing in our local symphony for the past 15 years as a bass... | |
| Turntables better than a Wadia 861SE w/ Statement I've heard A CAT System many years ago hooked up to a Goldmund Reference Turntable System and a special Van Den Hul Cartridge and I will never forget that unbeliveable stunning sound.Just left digital totally in the dust ,no comparison at all.

| TDK and Maxell. But what about?? I wasn't too crazy with the Radio Shack Type 4 Metals myself.I couldn't push the headroom on them so much.The very best ever made were the TDK MAK-G if you could ever find them.The 90 Minute Tape sold for almost $10.00 each if memory serves me rig... | |

| What do you think of my 25 laws of audio Just curious do the Tannoy's have horns?.The big JBL's had I think 2340 compression horn drivers that would put out extreme high SPL Levels.It also had a seperate enclosure for the 15 inch bass driver and a seperate enclosure for the 10 inch midba... | |
| What do you think of my 25 laws of audio Well if you want big and powerful I use to own professional 4343 JBL Monitors 4 ways weighted in at about 200 pounds each,could vibrate a 3 story window facing on an apartment complex,and rocked hard for folks out in a middle of a football field u... | |
| Best HOME system you've ever heard Again My System is the best I have ever heard.I know I've seen this posted here before,But my system is different in that I'm obtainig such a level of transparency and realism I just have not heard on other systems.The Martin Logan Quest Z's with ... | |
| wire shielding I am also experimenting.No inner core cloth is best.I run mine with nothing but the air in the teflon.IMO little is best for this application.I have had interesting results thus far.My home made cable is very,very transparent,But I'm still working... | |
