If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money
@teajay To answer your question is yes. Unfortunately about five minutes ago was the very first time, though. I didn’t even remember that thread existing until you mentioned it earlier and I then asked someone to post the link so I could see what ...

@teajay This my absolute last time to drag this issue through the mud yet again. My apologies are to all the folks who have had to watch this little soap opera unfold.As I explained earlier today I have made a total of four attempts to reach you t...

@aolmrd1241     Thanks for taking the time to post the link, I guess I'm just snake bit with it, though, as I cannot seem to be able to click on it and open it in spite of the fact that I have no such problem with any other links up and down this ...

@teajay     I thought long and hard about whether to respond to your recent post and, as I guess you can see, I decided to go for it in order to provide a little clarity.In Aug. 2018 you started this thread to announce to the world your upcoming r...

@ nonoise   Thanks for posting that link. Unfortunately, that review is not authored by TJ and I had already seen it when it was originally put up. And I have no quibble with any of the conclusions reached. But that does not let TJ off the hook fo...

@jriggy   You nailed it. Emails to him at 6 Moons and inquiries by me in active threads where he has mentioned the transport have all gone unacknowledged. In each case the single question posed by me was where/when can I find the review of the Jay... 
Ordered my new amp today... been a long road!
"my Martin loans sh#t the bed every year for about three years so I bought a pair of 10Ts". Anyone??? 
Low Sensitivity Speakers Compression Issue.
Gentlemen...the phrases "high sensitivity" and "high efficiency" have been bandied back and forth as if they are interchangeable, which any audiophile worth his salt knows that, indeed, they are not. For the purposes of this discussion, let's sett...

@garrard... Obviously, he is not and he will summarily ignore any and all inquiries made of him regarding the subject. Ask me how I know. 
Jay’s Audio CDT-3 - Impressions of a Great CD Transport
@hifi76     I may be wrong but I think TJ's review was actually going to be of the CDT2 MK2 and not the CDT3, He misidentified the transport he was going to review in another thread and later cleared up the mistake. I believe I have this correct. ... 
Considering switching to Tubes
@gents   The OP specifically stated that he listened to a tube integrated, was duly smitten, and then asked if he should switch to a tube AMP, not preamp. As B&Ws are, typically, a rather demanding load, he should approach buying a tube amp fo... 
Bought some `Vintage Gear`
I bought a pair of L200s brand new in 1975 and had them for the next 25 years til I got my AG Duos. I sold them to a friend who lives close by and I still listen to them every week or so. At 45 years old they have never had a repair or failure and... 
Thoughts on a new tube amp for high end rig? The last piece!
If the Wilson speakers he owns now (upgraded or not) are typical of most Wilsons of yore then some pretty healthy impedance dips are to be expected. For OTLs, low impedance loads are not a desirable pairing. Having said that, Atma MA-2s were speci... 
Audio Desk Systeme - Vinyl Cleaner – Repair of Water Pump Failure
@decibell Your post is a model for why fora like these should exist. Anyone who owns one of these machines should be grateful that someone (you) was ambitious and tenacious enough to tackle such a problem and then "bother" to post about. No snarki... 
Can anyone hear the difference when you add REL subwoofers when playing two channel
@larry5729  I'm not going to bother going to the REL site to check but I would be highly surprised (to put it mildly) if the T9/i puts out 300 "class A" watts.
