| Klipsch forte II what league are they in? With about 10wpc from 20' on my deck, "Car Wheels on a Gravel Road" sounds incredible. My moronically cheap T-amp/Playstation 1/ Forte II combo still amazes me! $81 source and amp...people just shake their heads... | |
| Best sounding reggae on analog? Nina Hagen is for those who think there just isn't enough yodeling in reggae. I recommend "Nunsexmonkrock" if you want the full Nina Hagen experience. OK,I confess, I love her.I like compilation reggae albums, few artists (imo)other than Bob Marle... | |
| Sony Playstation 1 for a CD player ??? Heat wave, 103-104 last week. Used my PS1 outside while I played with my little one in her pool during peak temps without issue. Don't think I will be buying a $200 power cord or $50 fuse for it. Wouldn't it make more sense to bypass the fuse and ... | |
| Headphones? Anyone? I'm listening to Jethro Tull "Benefit" on some audio-technica ATH-A700s I picked up used locally on Craig's List as I write. I have enjoyed them to compare with my KRK KNS 8400s. Both are pretty nice sounding, each with their own strengths and wea... | |
| Brandi Carlile She did "Raise Hell" which I have not heard before: loved it! Ok, just realized I called her "fabulous" and just said "loved it!" Use the right inflection and it sounds like that movie critic sketch from "In Living Color"! | |
| Brandi Carlile She's on Craig Ferguson tonight, will have to record it. | |
| Brandi Carlile I saw Brandi on Austin city limits with Rosanne Cash a few night s ago, immediately ordered "The Story" online. I have heard her before, never really knew who she was, I think she is fabulous. I guess I should pay more attention to this forum! Fou... | |
| what kind of discount on demo speakers? I would be trying to get 20% off the top on new speakers, so I would be thinking more. I'm sure it depends on the demand for that specific item, but I've frequently seen much bigger discounts on demos. | |
| Problem with loud buzzing noise on amplifier I think buzzing is usually the transformer. That's assuming the buzz is coming from the amp, not the speakers. Hope you get some tips from the more tech savvy here. | |
| Headphones? Anyone? Thanks all, this is not quite the ghost town it was a while back. Not planning on dumping the Grados, but planned to get something new to try for a change. Just didnt think I would need them so soon. My first were Senn 414s, my first paycheck, fir... | |
| VPi HW 19 jr upgrade I read somewhere that replacing the sorbathane pucks with cones, making the jr a non-suspended table improved this table. I have a jr and intended to experiment, but never got around to it. I would definitely recommend replacing the feet with cones. | |
| Efficient speakers with high powered ss amp? Some speakers are designed to mate with low powered tube amps that have low damping factor and/or specific impedance requirements. This is a small minority of speakers out there and most speakers will work just fine. Manufacturers usually will let... | |
| Please Advise me on Building a System on a Budget Watch craigslist/ebay and pick up a Sony Playstation as mentioned above. Sounds crazy, but this thing does sound great and is -so- cheap, it can be a starter source while you put your system together. Must be the PS 1 with rca outputs on back. If ... | |
| Sad news for VPI - from their Facebook page... When I once contacted them for advice, I found them to be very helpful. It was evident that they are great people, my heart goes out to their family. | |
| Which companies deserve a star for Christmas Years ago I called Rotel when my amp lost a channel and a local shop quoted me $250. They connected me directly to a tech and he recommended I send it to him. Saved me from being screwed by that shop and $180.Also, when I was working on a TT proje... |
