| advice on choice ot totem rainmakers. I agree on the Sttaf, and see no advantage to the Rainmakers over the Sttaf. With the Rainmakers you'll need to spend another ~$150-$200 for stands (minimum), and the footprint is equal, if not larger than the Sttaf. The Sttaf is a fantastic sound... | |
| Is it too much to ask.... while I understand the perspective Viridian (ie hobbyist), but I tend to include basic info and sometimes paste in complete spec's to help my odds of selling.What drives me nuts is guys who paste in complete mfg spec's and features lists, but say ... | |
| Amp, On A Budget? another for the B&K ST140, or the later versions of it. I have a B&K ST125.2 like this that's great too. | |
| Any Mark Knopfler Fans Out There? I have nearly everything he's done, including Dire Straits, and Solo work, and projects like the one with Chet Atkins, and Knotting Hillbillys.I'm only on the second listen of Privateering but like it a lot. | |
| A clue for the clueless exactly! | |
| Clearaudio Concept - Used - Careful what do you think you need to configure on it? Setting up turntables is pretty easy unless you're a total klutz. Based on the picture it appears the only adjustments are on the tone arm (VTA) and cartridge alignment which are really easy to do on ... | |
| No love for the REL S series anymore? ok - now I see the point. A quick ebay search shows 2 Storm III's have sold in the past (however long they keep the history for) 1 Storm III in Cherry veneer for $600; and 1 Storm III in Black for $400. It also shows 2 Strata III's sold for $375, ... | |
| No love for the REL S series anymore? I've had 3 Rel Storms - 2 Storm III's, 1 Storm I. Never had an issue. Still have 1 of my Storm III's and always will. It's fantastic - by far the most musical sub, and easiest to integrate I've ever had. | |
| No love for the REL S series anymore? you may have seen a STORM I *not* sell for $450, but not a STORM III. Natural Veneer Storm III''s sell quickly so long as they are priced reasonably. Britix Black isn't as well liked. Used Cherry Veneer Storm III's sold for a few years for ~$1100,... | |
| any Marillion Fans? I like them - both eras | |
| Recommended Soldering Iron I use this one: and it works very well, but I am planning to upgrade to the one Peter posted (or the digital version of it) simply because I want auto shut-off (I think this is an essential feature for hobbiest). The temperature control will also ... | |
| Rectifier Tube Clarification/Help W/ Dared 2000a I experience some speaker hiss with the Dared Sl-2000A. Is it normal? no it's not. Have you tried swapping tubes? Could be your tubes are microphonic | |
| No love for the REL S series anymore? the prices have come down a smidge, but I've noticed them selling . . . at least the natural wood ones have been. The black ones have always seemed to sell for a lot less, or not at all . . . | |
| Does you wife touch your system? my wife has no interest in it. It's a good thing too, because if she tried she would quickly become frustrated and irate, and blame me for how hard it is to make it work. Also, I would be hovering over her every move and become irate when she does... | |
| Upgrade Hafler 9500 or Mccormack DNA-1 for Thiels The guru I am hoping reads this would have heard both and would also be able to comment on how each would sound compared to the C-J I doubt you'll find such a guru; but, here's my 2 cents: I have no experience with the Hafler or DNA - upgraded or... |
