I have problem with my Tenor150 - advices welcome
I did not get answers from Tenor to the mails sent in the last two months and i understand they have other priorities at the moment but i would really like to have this problem fixed.This never ceases to amaze me. Imagine that your $10K plus amp h... 
Would anyone respond???
I'm happy with my main system. Problem is I collect vintage audio from several manufacturers so there's always something coming and going.Best,Paul :-) 
Hafler 9505 or Rotel 1080 or Lexicon LX5
My vote goes to the 9505 Hafler. I used these amps for years, great value for the money and sound far beyond the price point.Best,Paul :-) 
what is the sound like on a levinson 336
I had 10t's and demo'd a 336 with them a few years back.At the time frontend was BAT VK50SE and BAT VKD5SE CD player.IMHO the 336 was a good match. Lots of detail without being bright. As with most Levinson amps, excellent Bass control.I liked the... 
Newbie Question
Hello:I have L1290's as well. These will respond quite well to upgraded amps/preamps/etc.I use a Levinson ML-3 amplifier and Adcom GFP-750 preamp on my 1290's. An older Cal Audio Icon MkII CD player or Carver TX-11b tuner for sources. Very good so... 
Comment on this system.
I've heard Eidolons with a Spectral front end here in New England at a big dealer, properly set up in a good room.They were not for me. Enough folks here have Eidolons so I'm willing to bet your friend could learn before he makes a big dollar mist...

Moved from 2 channel to Home Theatre - Regrets?
I'm an old-time 2 channel guy. Back around '98 I fell into the HT trap. 2 subs, Lexicon, Martin Logans all over the place. Big amps, lots of wire.Mega Complexity.2 channel sucked on the thing.All gone now. I run my DVD player through the 2 channel... 
Anyone pay 1st price, Even if it's fair ? Poll
As a buyer I will gladly pull the trigger and pay asking price for an item I feel is worth it.As a seller I price my items with a little "wiggle room" built in.My ads always say: "lowballers cheerfully ignored".If that gets the goat of others, the... 
High End Audio Dealers
My stepdaughter and her husband live outside of Atlanta.There's a few good stores there, my stepson-in-law and I go out on audio adventures most every time my girl and I fly down to visit.Go to Atlanta!Best,Paul :-) 
Vintage Bummer: Reel to Reel Saga Continues....
The bad:Sounds to me the capstan belt is junk. These cost about $14 shipped and you can replace it yourself.You got rooked by the $900 repair guy, sorry to say.Now you have learned an expensive lesson. The good:Reels are wonderful. I've been aroun... 
what amp. to power areial 10-t speakers
10t's! I had a pair for quite a while, great speaker.Classe and the Aerials are a good match. If I were you, I'd consider a Classe CP-65 preamp, or possibly the Omega.IMHO, the CP-50 is the weak link.Best,Paul :-) 
Outputs, Technics 1520 Reel to Reel.
OOPs, forget the Sony TC-765, that makes 5!Best,Paul :-) 
Outputs, Technics 1520 Reel to Reel.
Albert, considering what you have for source material, you will enjoy the 1520 immensely.LOL I sold my 1500 some years ago on Ebay while they were "hot". You spiked my memory as indeed the machines played all 3 speeds like very few others.I have a... 
Outputs, Technics 1520 Reel to Reel.
I had a Technic 1500. This was single-ended only so I'm afraid I'm not much help. Technics sourced their heads for these machines from Otari....thus still available.Not much else in the way of repair part are available though. I hope you didn't pa...
