| Wadia 860SE or Wadia 27ix/270 Combo? Depending on the size of your CD collection I would suggest you go for the 270/27 solution and you can alway modify THIS combo later. That's exactly what I did, being not interested in any new formats at all owning 4000 CDs and counting. I agree t... | |
| How long did it take to get your dream system? Almost 40 years.....! | |
| Worst remote nomination... Smokester - I had exactly the same problem with my WADIA 850's remote. For some reason the remote of my 270/27 is working perfectly! I assume it is a problem with the remote's lens? I disagree with your complaint about the layout, though. I find i... | |

| Will storing used speakers for 1 year damage it? Store them in a dry, medium warm place, make sure that no UV light might affect the chassis. Sit back as often as you can in the hassle of building and/or moving close your eyes and look forward to getting them out and running!Good luck! | |

| Is there a future for Redbook players? ABSOLUTELY!!CD is the only medium on which you can get almost EVERY music you want/need! Since the new formats are mainstream formats in the first place and not necessarily high end formats it will take ages - if ever! - til you really get what yo... | |
| RU recording LPs on Reel to Reel ? I used to record LP's on to a REVOX machine. At the time to have continuous playback for a longer time than any LP could offer, plus I didn't buy every LP but got some from friends for recording. I don't have the Dolby version of the Revox machine... | |
| Wadia, Krell or Sony SACD Depends on what your main sources are. If you have a decent CD collection then go for the Wadia. I wouldn't count on SACD as a format delivering whatever music or musicians you want to listen to. It will take years if ever that you get what you wa... | |
