| Rega RP8 vs Clearaudio Concept I'll keep that in mind if I decide I need to do jumping jacks while listening to vinyl. I think I'm good for now. I have a couple of fairly well damped tables both on Symposium bases. I can walk around the room without them skipping and they do... | |
| Beginner's Guide to Replace Cartridge on Music Hall MMF 2.2 The first thing I did when I got my 2.2 was try to try to install a new cartridge and I broke one of the wires. Fortunately I have a local repair shop that is much more reasonable than the one you spoke with and I think it was about $50-$75 to ge... | |
| Used 5ch Amp (Classe, Krell, Rotel) I stand by my recommendation to get separates for 2 channel listening, but if you're stuck on getting a 5 channel amp, the best sounding and most "musical" one I have owned is my Lexicon LX-7 which I still own and use for surround duty. Others I ... | |

| Bobbie Gentry or Dusty Springfield? I don't have an opinion on the vs. question, but sort of on topic, I recommend checking out Shelby Lynne's Just a Little Lovin' record. It's her tribute to Dusty Springfield and a great listen. | |

| Difference Between DAC Types I don't think you can generalize by type, there's a lot more to the DAC than just the chip used and different people hear things differently and have different tastes. At the end of the day the only way you're going to know if one is better for y... | |
| Well maybe it IS my hearing I wholeheartedly agree with your post. In regards to the topic of hearing, mine is limited to about 12kHz. I have a lot of aftermarket power cords and interconnects, but I have never experienced a single instance where there's been a noticeabl... | |
