| Equipment that has made you 'stop' looking? Joseph Chow from Audio Horizons power cords. Very neutral, and just the most natural sounding cord. So I screwed it up and added Oyaide plugs, this has been a huge improvement, along with his amazing Dimension interconnect. This interconnect beat ... | |
| Stout Silver Interconnects When I used the Audio Horizons Power Cord, the transparency interconnects worked just fine. The new IC (not being manufactured yet) was needed more when I used my old power cords W & M. These are very neutral power cords, and by far the best I... | |
| Stout Silver Interconnects You are absolutely correct, they are fine interconnects. Since the owner lives in my neighborhood, he stopped by and let me use his Transparency IC's, his fantastic power cord and his new just introduced IC. The power cord is very natural sounding... | |
| Stout Silver Interconnects I am curious about your new interconnects. I am using acoustic zen Matrix ll on the amp/preamp-but I need silver for the source to pre-amp. I am using DH labs, have used some solid silver interconnects also. I am saving for AZ silver reference, bu... | |
| Suggest a preamp please I have had good luck with my Van Alstine T7ecr, it is a hybrid unit using 12at7 tubes.I only paid 550 for a 14 month old unit.... Since you can always upgrade Van Alstine equipment, you can save in the long run. I have had nothing but trouble with... | |

Try the classic speaker pages, for 5-600 $ you can buy and fix up, or if someone else does the reconing, for about 1000 to 1200 end up with something that sounds a lot better than the (my opinion) junk made now....I saw a pair of AR-91 speakers on... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE Jaybo, I took your advice..I bought a pair of AR Classic 30 speakers in mint condition. What a shame they do not make speakers like this anymore. True acoustic suspension is so accurate sounding. I went on a speaker hunt last month and came to the... | |

| Review: Forte Model 4a Amplifier I read this post years ago, and then I picke4d up the old stereoph8ile from November 1992 about the Model 4 and the 6. I bought the 6, it replaced an old Carver tfm-55. I liked the Carver more, the 6 sounded terrible to me. I had planned on buying... | |
| Compatible preamplifier for Counterpoint Solid 1A? jI have a FET-2, but it only has 1 tape loop......I had Jon Soderbergh work on it, as he only lives 9 miles from me, he made a deal for me. He played with it for a month or so, and I know for sure that he put in two Black Gate capicators in series... |
