| Listener magazine defunct ?? I had thought that Listener was the publication of a regional audio society, perhaps out of New York. Is this correct? I've been subscribing mainly because I miss the days when TAS was a real journal and Listener seemed to be striving to recreate ... | |
| Do you own/have you heard the new Thiel 1.6? I own them. They have a LONG breakin but are really very lovely sound. Precise, high resolution. Bass is satisfying but not very deep. I find they maintain my ability to enjoy acoustic and vocals, but, THEY HAVE RETURNED ROCK AND ROLL TO MY HOUSE ... | |
| Cary Audio I've had fantastic experiences with high end manufacturers and most distributors but find most dealers (not all) to be very moody. This is the opposite of what I would have expected. Shouldn't a dealer be customer-oriented so as to justify the mar... | |

| Review: Plinius 8200 Amplifier This is not the Mk II version, correct? Have you tried the phono stage?Thanks,Art | |
| Review: Bryston B-60r Amplifier Can you describe the details of the sound - quality of bass, midrange, treble? Harsh or grainy? Lean, rich...? thanks,Artps: can you compare it to other amps you have heard? | |
| Review: Spendor S-100 Speaker I've been getting amazing sound from my Spendor FL-9's. They are a serious cut above the 1/2 and 7/1 both of which I've owned. Hard to go wrong with Spendor though.Art | |
| Older vs newer with comapinies like CAT & AI?? I've owned the AI Mod 3 and 3a and I think they are both fairly priced on the used market.Art | |
