My Poop theory by kublakhan Long term satisfaction will not be found in material things. There is always better equipment in whatever hobby you choose and if you don't know it, the advertisers will tell you. Dissatisfaction is not all bad. It is what drives us on to invent a... | |
Listening to music online Eldon; I am not an authority on the subject matter at hand but I do know enough to maybe get you started. The streaming that I heard does sound horrible. MP3 is a compression format which is the format used at places like Napster and some newsgrou... | |
Which would be the best system that... First of all, take your time. Though there are good systems listed on this thread, I would hang out on the forums for awhile to catch the overall tone as to what is available and sounds good to the members. There is a lot of valuable info on these... | |

Listening to music online I don't understand your question. What are you trying to accomplish with online music? MP3 is much better than streaming however streaming is the format used at the sites you mentioned. They are only trying to give you a sample of what the song so... | |

Diva , PSB , Dynaudio or Meadowlark ? Hey Wcwhisper: Do you have these speakers and if so how particular are they about placement? With a rear firing woofer it would seem that they would require staying away from corners and front wall. Since they will be in my living room, I am confi... | |
To tone control or not to tone control Bob, I had to take a look at that accuphase. It looks pretty good but out of my $ league.Greg, When I tried mine it sounded like my speakers were under water. | |
To tone control or not to tone control Can someone explain to me why a simple question has rated -4 -4? I thought these forums were places where you can gain info and share ideas. If you don't like the ideas then you should make your opinion known. Maybe you have something that can she... | |
Is anyone familiar with Ixos cables? Bluenose, Are you saying it is ok to mix cables? I thought the concenses opinion was to match cables, however this may be my misunderstanding. The 1001's that I spoke of are a model below the Ixotica which are the Gamma Master Connect | |
To tone control or not to tone control Hey Bruce, I tried playing with the vol control on the Adcom but had no luck. Still a lot of distortion. Could be a bad ic cable but I doubt it since they are fairly new. The sound reminds me of a real dirty connection. | |
Diva , PSB , Dynaudio or Meadowlark ? Hey Trelja, Those were my first pick, but they are really big. Also was concerned with placement since I've been told they would need more room to breathe ie further away from walls. That is why I put the silver i on the list, figureing I could ad... | |
To tone control or not to tone control Bruce, Yes I had the Adcom's volume matching that of the CJ. However maybe it was overloading the CJ since I had to turn it up to nearly half volume to match the CJ. Maybe turning the volume down on the Adcom would help. Didn't think about that ti... | |
To tone control or not to tone control Bruce & Greg, I too have received -2 -2 on 5 of my posts on this thread. Even the opening question received neg points. I too would like to know why? I guess I should not have asked such a rediculous question. It seems as if someone doesn't li... |
