| Stereophile, no more bench tests????!!!! @browndt,Sorry, but i find it suspect that anyone who claims to be an editor would stumble over the spelling of "ads". It's like Bill Gates choking on "computer". | |
| Seeking Advice on NOS DAC I bought a Dodson D 217 mk. II d with 218 software upgrade and used it happily for over a decade. However, one of my system goals has always been to achieve ultimate transparency without crossing over the line into harshness. So when the Hex came ... | |
| DODSON 127II, 127II D and 128 Are you, perhaps, confusing the model numbers? With Dodson, I am only familiar with the 217, the 217 mk 2d and the 218. | |
| Has anybody heard this newer brand of turntable? Shineola Runwell out of Detroit, MI USA? Just grab yourself a Schiit DAC and this table and you're done with sources.Oh c'mon...you know somebody had to say it!!! | |
| Pass Labs XA30.5: In praise of Class A magic! Just to be clear, you are, in fact, referencing the 30.5 and not the newer 30.8, correct?? | |
| Avantgarde Duo 2.2 Stoped working Is it possible that the speaker wire which connects to the midrange driver is either unplugged or failing to conduct? Unless you're biwiring your mid and tweeter, the feed to the mid is what feeds signal to the tweeter via a jumper so my guess is ... | |
| ________ is an artist I did not expect to like but was pleasantly surprised. Moby "Play" is an awesime album start to finish. Try it. | |

| Why do all audio forums on the internet seem "dead" ? I read the big two audio mags for 10+ years and then let them lapse. I've visited the big two fora for the last 10 years as well and find interest (my own) lagging as well. Been there done that in both cases. The freshness wears off, the same post... | |
| Rock with strings ELO should be right up your alley. | |
| JMF Audio: Any experience with JMF Amps/Transport? No experience but it seems to me they have simply copied (at least in many ways)the electronics pioneered by Kinoshita Monitor Rey Audio. This does not invalidate them but does give one pause as to who is really the brains behind the products. | |
| Turntable placement To Lewm re: "...a possible record for use of commas..."Obviously you were never a reader of the oft ballyhooed HP, the James Joyce of audio related writing. | |
| Atma-sphere amps best power tubes I keep hoping that Ralph and crew will follow thru one day on the oft hinted at 6AS7G tube tester that they were going to build. A lot of us would really like to put to bed once and for all the issue of whether or not our various testers are up to... | |
| Stillpoints Ultra SS under your speakers? By default I ended up with the Ultra SSs on the larger 3" stainless steel bases (can't remember what they're called). Jim Smith told me that the name of the game with my Duos is decoupling...not coupling them to my raised carpeted wooden floor. I ... |
