Hearing Aids?
Hi: I also suffer from 50% hearing loss in my right ear. I purchased an expensive behind-the-ear aid and was never happy with it. Out of desperation I heard that Cabela's sold hearing aids for hunters. They have a 100% money back guarantee so ther... 
Quad ESL owners question
I have Magnepan 2.7s as well as the ESLs. 
Best Integrated Amp for Maggies MG12
Hi: I have had MG 12s and used an Aragon 8002, Accuphase E202, and Meridian AW 70. I still have all of these amps and will be selling some of them. If you live in the Northwest come and listen to them with some 2.7s. For fun I drove the MG 12s wit... 
Speltz Anti Cable vs. SilverClear Day Speaker Wire
I have used both and prefer the Clear Day cables. I have Magnepan 2.7s. The Shotgun silver cables will amaze you. Paul sent me an 8' pair of single run silver cables and I liked them immediately. I ordered the shotgun set and he sent them quickly.... 
speakers for classical music
Quad ESL 57s or Magnepans. If you live in the Seattle area feel free to listen to my speakers. I have an extensive collection of classical music. A lot will depend on your room, tastes, and other equipment. Good luck. Rob. 
Quad ESL 57 are there better speakers out there??
I had a HQD stacked set-up that was amazing. I now have a pair of 57s. I still have the 18" Hartley in a 7' teak enclosure but can't use it because of space considerations. The difference is nothing short of stupendous. The 57s are wonderful witho... 
Best SS amps with sound similar to tube amps
Bedini 25/25. I have one and if you can find one buy it. They are available occasionally for around $600.00 
Quads - Just a couple of questions
Yes, the AtmaSphere M 60s have plenty of power and sound wonderful but you must have the autoformers to have them at their best with 4 ohm impedance speakers. I have the Quad ESL 57s and a it is a great match. I have also had the M60s hooked up to... 
Quad ESL 57 repair
Thanks! I will get in touch with True Sound in San Francisco. 
Want to get into Analog but i do not have a preamp
I have an Aragon 47K. This phono amp has a separate power supply and can be set up for MC or MM. I went to a very expensive tube pre-amp. I have the original box and manual. I ran this straight into my amp using stepped attenuators. If you are int... 
Need small speaker for less than $750. Ideas?
I have a pair of Silverline SR 16s that Alan Yun modified ( he replaced the stock tweeters with those from his Sonata line). They are great monitors but I went to a set of Quad ESL 57s. If you are interested in the Silverline 16s I will make you a... 
El Salon Mexico -- old edgy version
My favorite has always been Antal Dorati's version. It is available on London--cd#430705-2. It has punch and verve that Bernstein's can't come close to. LP version is harder to find. I have many versions but the Dorati has been my favorite/
