| Turntable Suggestions My budget is not tight at $2,000.I felt this was around what I wanted to spend as well asbeing a good balance with the level of the rest of my system.Like I said, I'm really not sure how good my YBAphono is and I have little idea of where the cost... | |
| Which integrated amp with Harbeths? For what it's worth, I preferred the YBA Passion over the Plinius 9200.Used they seem to be within your budget.Assuming your from Maine-I have a place in Newport-Fidelis in NH sells both Harbeth and Plinius and wouldhave info on the match. | |
| Can you help or do I have to get divorced? I had the same problem in my kitchen.I ended up with B&W 302's on shelf brackets held onwith double-stick tape.Never fallen or been a problem.I think any smaller front ported speaker should do fine.Bigger speakers would just need bigger bracke... | |
| Subwoofer other than Strata 3 Thanks for the inputStorm 3 being ported I feel would be a little boomy.The DD10 I can try from tweeter-I did hear they were better for movies than 2 channel, however I could be wrong.MJ-not sure-I'll do some research.The 2WQ's do come up used and... | |

| Help-IC's needed AU or AQ Over the christmas break I got a chance to try the cheetah's. Very nice- things seemed sharper, more detailed, and with a little more bass. I especially liked the grab of the connectors,quite snug, probably sincemy cardas are so old. My only conce... | |

| Plinius or YBA If anybody is curious, which doesn't seemtoo likely judging by the amount of inputthat I received, I purchased the YBA. Twodifferent salespeople both felt the YBA wasthe better amp, which was quite convincingseeing that they sold the Plinius and n... | |
| Plinius or YBA I just wanted to add my impressions that the Plinius mightbe more dynamic while the YBA may be a little cleaner and more refined. Anybody else? | |
| SA-14 Construction/TOC Issues I talked to Marantz America.They assured me no units were ever made withplastic sides and top. The material is an anodizedaluminum alloy. I re-checked my piece and will admitmy error-it is easy to see why it seems like plastic.Thin aluminum top wi... | |
| SA-14 Construction/TOC Issues I also recently purchased an SA-14 from CSW.Initially I was less than pleased, however fromguidance from Ivan, Islandfisher, and Socrates,the unit has settled into place and nowsounds great. Lengthy break-in and the inner tubehave transformed it. ... | |
| SA-14 vs XA777es Thank You for all your input.I called Marantz about the switch and they stated that in custom mode itputs out a 100 kilahertz signal.I called Bryston,they said no problem- Brystons go from 1/2 to130 kilahertz, as well as stating the speakers areno... | |
| sony xa 777es how good? Thanks for all the feedback.My thoughts based on the responseswould be that the sony is comparableat with a 508.24, arc cd2 which either seemto sell around $1600 used. I thinkthe sony at $1700 new with a 5 yearwarranty makes more sense. I'll seeif... |
