| Pink Floyd's Pulse DVD finally For example, during one of Gilmour's best solos (Comfortably Numb) the camera shots are of the arena and special effects - God, what a waste (for me)- I want the damn cameraman to zoom in on the guitar, not the props. Interesting. The arena effect... | |
| help noisy vpi motor you may have already checked this, but - is the cover interferring with the pully? That is, are you sure it's the motor making the sound, or could it be the pully rubbing on the cover. I had a HW19 and the cover would rub the pully unless washers ... | |
| Help me insert preamp between HT receiver and amp yes, any of the available inputs EXCEPT phono will work | |
| Loud Snapping when turning amp ON and OFF I have 2 old Eagle 2 amps, as well as 2 Eagle 4's and a newly minted Eagle 2C. One of them I bought recently was an early s/n and "well used". It did the same thing when I powered it on. Here's what I suggest first: 1) Open it up and clean out th ... | |
| Radical thought- Use 2 pair of speakers the idea isn't radical, has been done with stacked advents, and dahlquists, probably others. I suspect the results you get from mixing 2 diff speakers will be un-predictable at best. But if it works when trying it, and doesn't create impedance iss... | |
| Eric Bibb fans? "Just Like Love" on OPUS 3 (HDCD) is worth having - especially if you're an E.B. fan. | |

| Selling to someone in another country It's more work to deal internationally, and perhaps more risk. I will do it, but insist on a premium handling charge on top of the normal shipping (usually $10-$15) which doesn't come close to paying for my extra time, but does help. | |
| Refurbished Marantz SR7500 quality? I purchased a refurb Marantz CC4300 CD player from them that was as new, and is probably the best value you can find in budget carousel players. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again for another component. | |
| Unable to audition used speakers a problem I agree, it's supicious at least that a seller will not allow audition, but your choice is not to deal with that seller, and he/she must realize their unwillingness to accommodate a potential buyer limits their market. On the other hand, if your i... | |
| Subwoofer in my systemÂ… I had a pair of Europas at one time, and they really needed a subwoofer in my room. I paired them with a Rel Storm, which was ok, but it took a lot more doing to integrate the system than it has taken me with the Rel on other speakers (eg Totems).... | |
| Are Monitor/Subs More Room Flexible? I think David hit the nail on the head; however this addresses the optimization of bass levels only. In my experience, Monitors are perhaps a little more difficult to position, and integrate with subs. Some are harder than others - eg, my GMA Euro... | |
| The Best Live album Porcupine Tree - "Coma Divine" sorry if it's already listed - but I didn't see it after quickly reading the other posts. It probably deserves mentioning twice anyway. | |
