| New room needs new speakers, I need your help @maurice89 You have only listed the width and length of your room. May I ask what is the height and what have you done in the way of acoustic treatment? | |
| Reliability - what’s your experience been? In 50 years I've never had an equipment failure, other than a laser reader go on a DVD player. But, in the past few years, I've had 3 pieces of high end equipment have issues right out of the box. All three were replaced but it was a nuisance. ... | |
| Help me find my ideal Stereo Integrated Amp @freediver You are correct the Hegel H600 has an MSRP of $12,500. Are you the guy that paid the full price that one time? 🤣 As for not having a phono stage, my thought was if you're not caring about the quality of the phono, it could be added f... | |
| Help me find my ideal Stereo Integrated Amp The Hegel H600 should be a contender. IMHO. | |
| Pop album that has stood the test of time You are asking about "Pop" records. In that category I would say Rockpile's Seconds of Pleasure is one I continue to enjoy. | |
| Thoughts/Opinions on Technics SL-G700M2 CD/SACD Player +1 for Music Direct. I bought "open box" equipment from them. Came with full factory warranty. After 55 days I contacted them about returning under their 60 day no questions asked policy. The return was handled exceptionally well. Can't say ... | |

| Drinking Songs playlest... What am I missing? @danager I think you missed what is arguably the greatest drinking song of all time. George Thorogood - I Drink Alone. What the heck, throw in his cover of John Lee Hooker - One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer. | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital John Schofield double LP "Hand Jive". Better than CD? Impossible to say as people hear what they want to hear. I can confirm it's a fabulous LP and a personal go to when I want to hear great sound from my turntable. No need to break the bank.... | |
| Sound insulation advice for home theater room in middle of the house? Google soundproofing a room. Seriously. | |
| 15 amp circuit VS. 20 amp Circuit I feel we often confuse the Watts rating of our equipment with the real world power they use. I have two Hegel H30 mono amps rated at 1150 watts each. In theory, I require 19 amps just for these. I can tell you that they only draw about 5 amps ... | |
| 15 amp circuit VS. 20 amp Circuit I'm assuming you don't run 5 power amps at the same time. In reality, your entire system, when running, probably draws +/- 5 amps. Your 15 amp breaker can handle a constant draw of 12 amps, and shorts bursts above 15 amps without tripping. Yes... | |
| Oh my goodness! Bob buys a DAC for $250. Believes it is all you need and is astounded that anyone would spend $2500. Bill buys a DAC for $2500. Believes it's the right choice and it provides much better sound than any $250 unit, and he's astounded that anyone ... | |
| Oh my goodness! Well, that's 5 minutes of my life I won't get back. | |
