| Rogue Monoblocks I have M-180s. Great amps, very clean and plenty of power. Tight bass, nothing "rolled off" about the treble. There are a number of reviews on them. One compares them to another amp (forget which one) saying the M-180 sounds more "solid state" tha... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thanks Steve, that's what I was hoping to hear! | |
| Home Theater Bypass , why am I hearing this now. Stating an opinion often and emphatically doesn't magically transform it into a fact, other than perhaps to the person stating it. Many of today's movies are made to be both a visual and sonic experience and a nice home theater system will allow ... | |
| Do you care about car audio? I had a really nice well tuned system in my car about 20 or so years ago and it was a lot of fun and I enjoyed it a lot. It's a different experience, much as listening with headphones can be a lot of fun, but not the same as a nice two channel sy... | |

| How many vinyl albums do you own you listen to? I have 1,654 catalogued in Discogs. I’ve been working on a project to get them all entered into Discogs and to cull out doubles and those that I don’t listen to. I think maybe 75% are already catalogued. So I listen to 1 or 2 of the ones that aren... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? This Pantera record sounds like crap. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Joel, I have a stock Chinook with upgraded tubes (don't ask which ones, it's been a while) and the Herron is a definite upgrade. Not night and day difference, but the Herron is quieter and lets you "see" a little further into the music. | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Steve, I bought the VTPH-2A. I'm strongly considering (which means it's only a matter of time) getting the VTSP-360 also. | |
| What is an audiophile? Are you an audiophile? The word is in the dictionary and I fit the definition. | |
| Is $2,844 too much to pay for a fuse? Depends on your level of income and intelligence. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw I don't know what his policy is regarding auditions. I like my Herron amps and phono stage enough that I'm willing to go all in on the preamp. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw The Herron is fantastic. More detail, a quieter background, more holographic. I like that I can have both a MM and MC connected to it and switch from one to the other with the flick of a switch. It's an upgrade from my Manley Chinook and ... | |
| Home Theater Bypass , why am I hearing this now. A preamp or integrated with HTBP will allow you to get the most from your music listening (assuming a quality preamp or integrated) than you'll get from a home theater receiver or processor. When listening in two channel, the home theater process... |
