| sell the system or piece it out Try waiting until the fall to sell. I've been trying to sell a tube amp for the past two months and have not gotten any offers.Selling separately would be better. Most people want to upgrade components. They are not interested in an entire system. | |
| Listening Chair? Try the Nordic recliner from IMG Norway. They sell them at Scan Interior. Mine is used from them for about $600. A lot cheaper than the Stressless and seems just as good. | |
| Cartridge Recommendations price range. I have the 2M Black and love it with the Sutherland Hubble. It has lots of detail. | |
| Anyone else noticing inflation in used gear $? Sales seem to be slower. Prices are about the same. | |
| Absorb or Diffuse in between speakers? It takes the edge off the sound. More important is bass absorption in the corners. | |
| Phono stage help I just got the Sutherland Hubble. I agree with Luvmusic about the versatility and sound quality of Sutherland products. I was using an internal phono from BAT with the Vk-32se. | |
| Does listening fatigue go away??? Every time I had listening fatigue it had something to do with the system. For example, I bought a new MM cart and had the gain set for a MC cart. After I changed the gain, the listening fatigue went away. | |

| Ceiling & Front Wall Treatments Stanwal,Thanks for you comments. The manufacturer helped with the current set-up. I was going to contact them to talk about the changes. I just wanted to see if I could get some additional ideas from the folks on Audiogon.Best Regards,Bigby | |
| How many dealers are in "your "City ? We used to have 3-4 high-end dealers. New we only have George MerrillÂ’s Analog Emporium. Eggleston Speakers also made in town. I have a custom made pair of Rosa speakers.I just bought a starter Thorens TT from George Merrill. Next year I hope to b... | |
| The right amp for my system To get clarity you have to add acoustical room treatments to tame the early reflections. | |
| Why do you Pick a Certain Speaker producer? I picked Eggelston (Rosa) because they are located in my hometown, Memphis. It's nice to be able to watch the speaker being made. More importantly, the sound is incredible for a small speaker. | |
| Power cords, AC line conditioners---preferences? Try Richard Gray and Transparent Audio - NT | |
| Power cords, AC line conditioners---preferences? I use a Richard Gray RGPC 400 Pro and Transparent Audio Ultra cables. My wife is my double blind tester. She says it is a great combo. It gives solid Bass, nice highs and a blackground. |
