The first four 12AX7 tubes (near the input jacks) are VERY critical, and any noise or microphonics in that position are going ... | |
| should everyone just order emm? Thanks Brooks, now it make sense. From the reviews I'm finding on line, the unit looks to be a great buy, even in stock form.http://www.audioholics.com/productreviews/avhardware/DenonDVD-2900-reviewp1.htmlWonder how it compares to my Sony DVP-S900... | |
| should everyone just order emm? Bob, trusting your comments, I went in search of the Denon 2900 on line. Are you sure the price you posted is correct? Denon's home site shows this at only $1000 unless I looked up the wrong model. | |

| McIntosh MC- 501 vs Pass X-600 vs Parasound JC-1 I have not heard the Macintosh, but would strongly suggest you add Classe to your short list of options.If money is no object, the new Omega series would absolutely do the trick.http://www.classeaudio.com/Omega.html | |

| Should there only be one company making gear? I nearly choked at the comments from Jax2 and Slappy, literally laughing until I could not type.This is what we need at Audiogon, more fun and entertainment. PS. I hate Krell and tubes, been lying about my system. I use a wind up picnic player, so... | |
| Is anyone listening to OLD 78's? Aceto, spoken like a true music lover. Congratulations on adding a new format to your library. No doubt there are some real gems in 78 that never made it to LP or CD. | |
| Can someone explain how this could happen? I don't see how it can happen. Guess your the first. | |
| Felix Hell on Reference Recordings WHOA Yea, Paris Hilton. | |
| What's the oldest piece of gear in your system? Sean THANK YOU. That Harmon-Kardon was taken from my car many years ago and now you have found it! Just send it to my home address and I will take care of the polishing up on that old copper chassis. By the way, do you remember those LP's that wer... | |
