| They're Here You can actually get the 7701 for about 299us at J&R, I believe but check out the reviews at AA first....maybe early quality problems with some of the units....this will probably be corrected....but yes, the launch has begun....Even the SonyDV... | |
| Which speakers do the hologram thing? Sean. The newform ribbons go down to only about 1000 althought in my dr-8-2's I read the crossover was about 900 to two peerless 8" drivers. The back of the heavy ribbons are monopolar. The ribbons have a very small acoustic profile from 1khz up. ... | |
| Which speakers do the hologram thing? Point taken, Sean....I've heard the tannoy churchills disappear, which, considering their bulk, is impressive. Also heard the original snell J's running on the SF control amp with a little rotel 855cd....the rear basement wall just disappeared and... | |
| Copy-protected CDs - philosophical discussion Is a copy-protected cd any longer a redbook cd or now something else? Is this a deceptive act selling a redbook that is altered? Is there a chance of a class action here? We're not be sold "pure product". Copy-protected cds should be renamed if th... | |
| Copy-protected CDs - philosophical discussion Angela, agree with you 100%. The music industry is trying to shoot itself in the foot with this one.....I don't burn cd's myself but feel I have a right to make my own copies if I had a player in the car....these encripted cds may not play in dvd,... | |
| best recordings of 2001? Celtic66. Please accept my apologies. My fingers goofed.how could ,I with Scottish blood in me, spell celtic eltic???/duh......see thread above...also, the website I mentioned by Jazzsamba is no longer valid.....I had hoped for some more music fro... | |
| best recordings of 2001? I have to agree 100% with Eltic66 on Nickel Creek....it is bluegrass,is truly outstanding and the trio is soooo talanted...if you enjoy allison krauss, you'll really enjoy nickel creek. Has anyone here heard the Jazzsamba Xmas cd? I have it and it... | |

| OPINIONS Best FULL RANGE used speaker for SS PSB Stratus gold; paradign studio/100's; energy veritas2.8's; and newform research sound good on solid state. ALso, apparently the big JM labs sound good on solid state. I haven't heard the jms but Peak audio used EAR tube preamps with ss amps on ... | |
| Any Comments on Nordost Speakers Cables?? hi, Ugin. I owned original red dawn speaker cable and interconnect. I found them very system dependent[what isn't]. In my system SS with newform ribbons they were too ultra detailed, zippy, lacking full timbre, with too much leading edge on notes.... | |
| The most important piece in a stereo system??? The frontend. Everything flows from that.....just my opinion. The other views here all valid too. We all try for the end result..music, music music. Good question, perhaps no definate right answer.....they all have merit....regards, Bluenose | |
| Anyone else have Redgum? What do you think? RGi120 Redgum gear has been reviewed favourably in andrew marshalls' audio ideas and soundstage....I haven't heard the gear myself but if you enjoy the sound that's the important thing. Seasons' greetings, enjoy, bluenose | |

If I get any encoded cd that is not labeled as such they are going back for a refund and I will let ths store know so they are aware of the problem....this ... | |
| What do you know about Sim Audio amps? Hi Tennispro. I've heard the moon W3 and prefer it to the Bryston amps I've heard. The 4070SE is the sim I own and I'm keeping it. This amp also is more musical when we compared it back to back to Bryston gear which is very descent in its own righ... | |
