Repair of Perreaux......NYC
New York Audio repair in Brooklyn. Very reasonable, but limited hours, but fast turnaround, if there is not too much backlog. Drive there.

Nora Jones new CD -- Copy Protection -- YIKES

Horns and Triodes...?

Horns and Triodes...?

Horns and Triodes...?
If he was daring, he should have tried to build a set of Voigt Pipes with the Fostex 208 Sigmas. I did this succesfully about 2-3 years ago and still have the cabinets left over. The finish was not "pro" but the sound, the sound for about $400 wor... 
Moving to UK, what to do?
or if possible, if you are there for a limited period of time, store your greatest possessions, and get a set up like the brits do, an affordable integrated, digital front end, speaker etc....and jam away, without worrying about conversion issues.... 
Reliability/Repair Issues w/Sony 9000es DVD player
It seems like earlier units had sticking tray problems. Other ones, seem to be having problems reading certain types of SACD. Maybe is just the product of making thousands of these units massively, but if it has generated such reliability buzz, th...
