| Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters Ruins the Song ‘Money’! Waters is a brilliant musical talent. He is certainly flawed as a person but Amused To Death is a masterpiece. | |
| Am I broken? Am I stuck? Do I have to return my audiophile card now? Love the Sashas. Not so taken with the Sabrinas. | |
| Speaker that are 'KEEPERS" for the long haul!!! Very happy with my Thiel 3.7s. Upgraded my electronics a few times but I haven't found anything under $40K that I like better than my Thiels. I did add a pair of REL S/5 SHO subs. That was a nice addition but for sound stage and imaging, the Th... | |

| Thiel Owners Had a pair of 2.4s. Really liked them but then moved up to 3.7s. Liked them even more. Still have them. Listened to other brands including Magico and Wilson and in my price range (under 40K) I have not found anything that makes me want to give... | |
| Lumin U2 vs Aurender N200 Had a Lumin U1 Mini. Upgraded with an Sbooster linear power supply. Great unit and excellent sound stage. So good , I was curios about the new Lumin U2 (not a mini) and just upgraded. As good as the mini was, the U2 sounds more natural and palpabl... | |
| SET Lovers, what's the one solid state amp you love(d)? Like my T+A a3000hv! | |
| How Do Amps Affect Soundstage? Amps do affect the sound stage quite a bit. I have found overall noise is a significant factor in soundstage width and depth. Quieter your components usually contribute to a larger, more impressive sound stage. | |
| Lumin U2 vs Aurender N200 Just upgraded from my Lumin U1 Mini with Sbooster Linear Power supply to the Lumin U2. You can't go wrong with the Lumin products. | |
| List some of your favorite live Jazz recordings Blue Sun/Mark Isham is a nice surprise. | |
| What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first? I purchased my Theil 3.7s without hearing them first but had 2.4s prior so I was familiar with the sound. Very happy with my decision. Before I purchased the 2.4s I did some serious speaker shopping and listening however. I was surprised at the... | |
| T+A Amps and Preamps? What I have done for years is buy used, try it in my system and the sell it if I was not satisfied or wanted to go in a different direction. If you buy it right on the used market, you can usually turn it around for what you purchased it for. Wors... | |
| Used PS Audio Items I have had and still have a number of PS Audio components. They are a great value and in my experience, their customer service is top notch. | |
| T+A Amps and Preamps? Finally did an A/B with the BHK 300 monos vs the T+A a3000hv. First of all they are both great amps. I could be happy with either but in a head to head, the T+A was more refined and was also more natural sounding. It was also quicker and better... | |
| Looking for an Amp Replacement Pick up a used BHK 250 used. Excellent amp for around 3 t 3.5 k used. |
