| Please recommend a receiver/integated/seaprates for JBL studio 530. Yamaha makes some nice integrated amps in your price range. I had one driving my older IMF's that I was happy with. Gave it to my son when I got classic Marantz separates. | |
| How do you sort your LPs? By color! It's a thing we started in college with several room mates, decades ago. Amazing how well it worked! And still works. | |
| Hunt for new floor standers I recently bought a used pair of Synchrony One's (towers) that I really like. They fit the price target used, I was able to listen to mine locally. Low frequency response is good, rated at 30Hz +/- 3db with some nice low distortion specs. Best of ... | |

IMF TLS80What's not to like about a big box, 4 way, Transmission Line speaker with response down to 20 hz?!Bought them used in the 80's, and still have them in my cave! Powered by vintage Marantz separates from the same era. They still make me sm... | |
| The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance Well, since the first 25 - 100' or more of cable in your house is most like 12 or 14 gauge solid core romex, shouldn't we just keep it all the same and use more of that? Nice conductivity, parallel conductors separated by a bare ground wire, simple! | |
| Is it safe to buy from Audiogon sellers? I'm one for one buying here, positive.As noted already, buy smart, check feedback, have a little correspondence first, and if seems way to good to be true look elsewhere. | |
| WAF Speaker suggestions I recently got a used pair of PSB synchrony one's. My wife didn't think I needed new speakers, but she really liked the look, the smaller footprint and curved backs won. The Revel Performas also have a similar shape that she liked. She didn't wa... |
