| Speakers for 55 watts of EL-34 tube power ? I'm not necessarily looking to buy new speakers now, but when I do, I'll probably be in the "$2500 - $3000" range. For me, a great part of this hobby is learning about other enthusiasts' findings of synergy and happiness with speakers and amps. I ... | |

| Recommended turntable mat for Rega P2 I now have the Rega P3-24, and I replaced the standard felt with the 2mm. Herbie's mat. A definite improvement in the overall musical presentation, and a worthy upgrade. Prior to my P3-24, I had the NAD 533 (basically a re-badged Planar 2). I real... | |

| Another great thing about analog...... Yes......it was Beatnick on Boulevard St. Denis, a truly wonderful store. And, why Boston in late January ?....a conference which I needed to attend. By the way, Boston's weather.....about zero degrees, but at least it was sunny. And inside the fa... | |

| shopping and need advice Hi Donjr............Oasis Audio is out of business. Audio Classics is in the Binghamton area, a few hours southwest of Albany. Unfortunately, Albany does not have any high end audio stores. We used to have some great places here (Altair Audio and ... | |
| Amp upgrade suggestions for a $2K budget Rogue Audio Cronus........Take a look at my system. The Cronus and the Rotel RCD-1072 seem to get along quite well. It's a wonderful sounding integrated amp, and it may be a perfect cornerstone for your system. Good Luck, and Happy Listening ! | |
| Mapleshade Brass Footers w/ Rega P3-24 ? Since my original thread, I've found a nice solution which has made me happy. My P3-24 table, with its original three rubber feet, is sitting on a 3/4" thick MDF board, which sits on eight Vibrapods atop the middle shelf of my Sanus rack. The musi... | |
| Saw the Gregg Allman band last night. I was also at the show at the Egg in Albany, and I totally agree with fjn04.........it was a wonderful concert. I first saw the Allman Brothers Band in 1971 at the Philadelphia Spectrum, while Duane was still playing guitar. It was practically the... | |

| Rega P3-24: Is the upgrade power supply worth it? In a word.....YES. In my room, with my system, and to my ears, the addition of the TT-PSU has allowed me to hear a definite improvement in the sound of music. I am now enjoying a deeper soundstage, a greater sense of pace and rhythm, a slightly ti... | |
