| What equipment do you really like? Alon Speakers. Everything (quite nearly) they have made I have loved. But, they seem to be obscure to most...(?) | |
| Who R U? My name is Brad, and I am an audioholic. Vitals: 33, Atlanta, Project Manager (studying C code), had this disease since my first receiver back in high school. I listen to everything but country, polka, top 40. I also love good scotch, cars, beach,... | |
| CDP upgrade I own a Marantz 65 mkII that I play through an AMC DAC8 and I also own a Rega Planet. My advice would be for you to audition a killer DAC. Although, I have not yet read any reviews on the Planet 2000. Anyone else? | |
| Audioprism "Quiet Line" experience I was having problems with RFI from a hallogen lamp with a built-in dimmer switch. It was plugged into to a switched outlet. I borrowed a few Quiet Lines from my dealer and plugged them in. No difference. I then replaced the light switch on the wa... | |
| Musical system for under $2K? Here's my bedroom system: Marantz CD65 mkII cd player; Creek 4240SE integrated amp; Alon Petites speakers; AudioQuest speaker wire and interconects. My advice is also to keep the first system simple with reliable components. | |
| Best Used Tube Preamp (under $750)? Conrad Johnson PV10A. I love mine. | |
| Any TIVO users out there?? Is it compatible with DD 5.1? What about picture/sound quality? | |
| Bi Wire vs Jumpers +/or-??? Bi-wire. | |
| Adcom, B&K, or Rotel????????? I own a couple of BK amps. I have had one problem with each of them (they are a few years old each). However, BK was great with the repairs and sent them back better than new. They sound great (for the money). I also had a Rotel amp some years ago... | |
| Bi-amp cable question Conrad Johnson's PV10A has two pairs of RCA outputs. I have one and love it. There's one for sale on Audiogon right now. | |
| Clean Ears: Cheap Tweak? I noticed the difference also. I could hear the air moving around my head as I walked out of the doctor's office. I asked the doctor if that crud affected my hearing and he told me no. He was wrong. | |
| Levinson in Lexus Nhorton: You are correct in stating that ML is no longer with the company. That part of the statement was just a poor choice of words on my part. I agree with your BMW comment. My Z3 Coupe's system always leaves me with a headache. | |
| Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green SRV's music is the best to me. Whether or not he's the best technically, I don't know. Clapton is too Top 40, imo. | |
| Jitter devices from $200 to $500 I read on JISCO's website that a jitter reducer will not work on a DD 5.1 signal. Has anyone ever tried this? Will it strip out the DD signal or prevent any conversion at all? I just ordered a jitter reducer for my satelite receiver and I am now w... | |
| Power cords at ridiculous prices? I recently purchased two used Tara Labs Prism power chords (thanks again, John H.!!!!)here at AudioGon. I connected one to my Creek 4240SE. The improvement was without doubt. I have not compared these to a megabuck cable, though. So, I suppose tha... |
