| Tube pre-amp pop It's the dealer you should ask for exchange, not the ARC.Does the pop sound quieter when the preamp is warmed up? | |
| Symphony 5th - best recording I was kind of doubting they would play the 5th by Mahler or Shostakovich on the kids show.....even though little Einsteins, but still......I have Beethoven's 5th, conducted by Karajan on DG that is a very good performance and a good recording. |
