| Turntables from 1-10: Personality 8.5 Beauty 12 Spend $30-$60 on the most beautiful, framed pic of your favorite turntable. Send me the rest. | |
| Technics SL-1200MKII and AT-440MLa, very good No offense but someone using a 1200 is likely making comparisons within the constraints of the DJ realm. | |
| Single Input, Multi Output, RCA Switchbox?? Nilesaudio.com makes various configurations. | |

| Amps for Thiel CS 2.2 "JBL makes junk. Inaccurate, time incoherent and phase inaccurate. Loses timbre all over the place."That is opinionated crap. Some of the worst speakers i've heard are Vendersteens, but at least I'll qualify it with the fact that it's my opinion. ... | |
| Yeah baby....I found a mate Actually Tannoy and other companies should have followed the B&W example and used multiple moderate-sized drivers on their larger speakers rather than a single or double 15", precisely so as to avoid this. B & W noticed the same laws of ph... | |
| Yeah baby....I found a mate Yes genius, that's right. Free advice from someone who knows as well as a Tannoy dealer who knows better than you. Very doubtful that more bass than the 12s throw out's necessary unless you're reliving your teen metal phase, but if more's needed j... | |
| Yeah baby....I found a mate I'd disagree, as does the Tannoy distributor i've dealt with-DMT 12s fill up a room nicely-nicely sized footprint and more than enough bass. 15s are nice but the bigger drivers also mean slower response and greater overhang. | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? I misplaced the acronyms, referring to FS in the first instance, as in strong dynamics, stark, clear sound.I suppose it depends on taste at higher levels, but the CAT jumped out in front in terms of musicality and rightness, immediately inviting, ... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? In comparing FS with CAT, i found CAT the clear winner. Very different-CAT with strong dynamics and a stark, very clear sound that cuts through-if you have the right system that would complement and can handle those attributes, might be an excelle... | |
| To tone control or not to tone control I can't imagine not having the flexibility of tone controls-far move value in having the flexibility vs. any minimal loss, if using a high-end piece. The Accuphase EQs have silly prices, so here's a little secret from the high-end and separate mus... | |
| Odyssey Stratus or Parasound Halo A23? The Parasound's excellent for the money - wouldn't say bright - I'd consider that clarity. Excellent detail, excellent soundstage, airiness, accurate with a good and balanced sound signature. Can't go wrong; haven't heard the Stratos but have A-B'... | |
| Amplifier Recommendation for B&W Nautilis 804 How 'bout just buying a new house with better acoustics? Cheaper than upgrades..? ;-) | |
| Audible Illusions Modulus 3A vs. CJ Premier 14 ? A-B'd the CJ/3A/VAC preamps. CJ and 3A close, thought the CJ slightly more vibrant, a little less colored sound, an attractive pre. 3A's got nice slam, almost a little too chunky a sound and analog warmth at the expense of realism and detail.VAC o... |
