Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso
You bought a Lenco from Chris! Very nice! I spent hours on the phone with Chris Thornton back in 2011/2012 when he was first getting off the ground. He would go on speaker phone and chat while he did his metal work. He is the undisputed King of tu...

bobheinatz..How weird! This morning I happened to go back on the thread from 2011 you refer to and must admit my behavior from my posts at the time were absolutely goofy. 2011 was a very bad year for meĀ  just getting over my younger brother's unti...

shadorne..I neglected to add that the God's were not with Edgar Villchur when he invented his piston driver, he experienced one of the greatest tragedies of all time in audio history and would have been the Bill Gate's of audio and the richest man...

shadorne-Hmmm...now let me see..when watching a close-up video on YouTube of a mid-range driver excursion test the cone is constantly moving back and forth on a suspended surround. The constant back and forth motion is caused by a piston moving co...

Jim Morrison/The Doors/Isle of Wight Concert
I went back on the Rolling Stone site to check out the Doors clip again and missed the announcement that the entire Isle of Wight Doors concert will be released this Friday on DVD and Blu-ray. Yeah! Off to the Movie store this Saturday. 
Speaker Break-In - What Physically Changes During Break-In To Enable Better Sound?
Shadorne-Your not making any sense whatsoever. You need to do more homework.A piston is a piston, doesn't matter what brand it is if its deemed high end. And unless its burned in at the factory before boxing, which most speaker companies do not ha... 
What was the first system you heard that made you think the high end made sense
Winter of 1970. Shacked up at a girl's house for a couple of weeks and she had in her living room a tube Fisher receiver and a pair of KLH speaker's. The sound had a very silky ultra smooth midrange that would stop you dead in your tracks. That go...

shadorne..Disagree with your assessment on burn-in. In the Spring of 1994 I purchased a used pair of Camber 3.5ti's from a member of the Washington Audio Society. At the time I had a Carver system and one of the two very best CD player's from Deno...

Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio
Early last year I decided to buy a used Rega Mira3 integrated and Upscale had one listed for $1100.00 but did not list it as new or used. I assumed it was new since they were selling used online between $600.00 and $800.00 and sold new for $1600.0...
