| New Order fans? NO just played the O2 arena in London last week---it should still be available for streaming I believe. Would have loved to have seen that show!! | |
| New Order fans? @dabel Yes! Substance is a great album---Perfect Kiss! | |
| New Order fans? @daledeee1 Great album! I bought the 12" of Blue Monday after I heard it one night. The vinyl looks like a giant 12" floppy disc--I think its still the best selling 12" of all time. Technique is my fav--Vanishing Point is an awesome song. | |
| Tube integrated amp recommendations Thanks @soix @gareents -- My musical tastes are all over the board--from classic alternative, synth, classic rock, country, house, classical. The sound characteristics I prefer are on the warmer side of neutral. Several others have also mentio... | |
| Tube integrated amp recommendations Thanks everyone---I've got my homework cut out for me. I was hoping to get more brand recommendations. Customer service is important to me and Raven definitely has that going for them. | |
| Tube integrated amp recommendations Thanks MC---I may just have to give Dave a call. A friend of mine mentioned tonight about looking at the McIntosh MA252 but that's a hybrid amp. Not sure I want to go that route. | |
| Tube integrated amp recommendations Thanks MC---I've seen the 'rave' reviews about the Blackhawk and their customer service. I'm a novice when it comes to tubes---would you recommend their NOS tubes as starters or upgrade the tubes? | |

| One big reason why brick and mortar high end audio dealers struggle. I’ve gave up on our local brick and mortar store for reasons very similar to yours. I honestly tried many times thinking maybe they were having a bad day or they were short staffed and so on. But time and time again, I got the ’you’re wasting my t... | |
| Cleaning vintage integrated amplifier @dill Thanks so much---will give it a try. | |
| Two surprising things I found that improved my imaging and staging... Totally agree with you since I just did the same thing. I've been rearranging some furniture in my room to make room for a vintage system. My Dynaudio Special 40s in my main system were a little too close and not angled correctly. Once I moved the... | |
| A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do? I've learned my lesson with a similar situation. If you loan money to a friend, be prepared to either lose your friend or lose your money. The only thing that worries me is suppose he calls you next week and wants to pay you back and get his recor... | |
| Top 5 Reaons to NOT BUY A TURNTABLE. Many older audiophiles still have their vinyl and CDs and have been through everything Steve talks about. Many younger audiophiles have been streaming for years and are just getting into vinyl. So good for them. One of my good friends (who's 18) i... |
