| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? My goodness ! Ar_t is a guy I have known for a very long time. In fact, the image on his web site was photographed by me in my photo studio.However, I cannot discuss how this amp performs, I have not listened to it. It might be fun and certainly p... | |
| Whats your opinion of modern horn loudspeakers? I heard nice sound in the Acapella room at CES. They are a very new design, something called spherical horns.As a rule I don't like horns, but these were very high quality and did some amazing things.Acapella | |
| DIY speakers vertical array a la "pipedreams" syst Essentialaudio, agreed, but the FredArray looks like (after quick calculations) to top out around $750.00 for the pair (plus sweat equity). That's less than a pair of Vandy 2's.The idea is not to compete with Pipedreams, they already have their re... | |

| Schroeder arms: order of merit? Just curious guys, I just read this whole stream of posts and wonder what extremes everyone went through to get these various arms set up and working their best.The Graham in particular, I have owned three, is an excellent arm. Having switched to ... | |

| Flattening warped lp's with Seal dry mount press Photon46, your efforts are promising. If the Seal press works for you, I may copy your efforts so I can flatten out those few warped LP's in my collection that are otherwise perfect. It's likely that you must hit the exact heat and cool ratio to a... | |
| I need help selecting a tube amp Maybe something like push pull KT88 with some power behind them? The JBL you mention is very efficient but the large, stiff woofer is what needs the 100 watts the factory suggests.Your Crown amps with their high damping factor would be great for c... | |
| Toslink or coax? Scott, I am not familiar enough with your equipment to give any better answer. As suggested in my last post, the only way to be sure is invest $15.00 for the Blue Jeans digital and then borrow some big name, high priced digital links from a friend... | |
| Toslink or coax? I would not upgrade beyond the Blue Jeans if I were you.I have four digital cables and tests with my Sony and Scott Nixon tube DAC show shockingly little difference until you get to the VERY expensive Purist Audio Digital ($1400.00 retail).In othe... | |
| Please help me I am in trouble with my new table.. Nicks,Soldering the clip back is a five minute job, tops. If you have a local dealer with some solder experience they should be able to do the job. If we keep this thread open for a few days, there may even be a fellow Audiogon member near you (De... | |
