| ultimate final word 3 on best passive preamp During Christmas 2003 I had the opportunity to hear the ASL T1-DT, which costs $495. I personally felt that this little passive pre was very transparent & rendered the music with a lot of soul. I did not get a chance to hear its big brother T2... | |

| Forth Order Noise Shaping?......... Skushino,Thanks for your kind words! You ask a tough question! Nyquist rate converters & over-sampled converters are 2 quite diff. beasts with very little in common except for they perform the same function - D-->A. Diff. design tecniques a... | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? Eagleman6722,Ok! I now see what YOU mean by "analytical". OK, each time I read "analytical" in your text, I'll substitute it with my equivalent word for it - "discriminating". To me "analytical" means somebody critically dissecting the sound into ... | |

| How to burn CD with CD text? Just FYI, "Record Now" is a program by Veritas software. I have it on my IBM laptop - comes default. Seems like IBM & Veritas have a biz link-up. I really like the "Record Now" software. Each disc that I have burned w/ it, has come thru i.e. w... | |

| Record Cleaning Machines Yes, I believe you guys! I have the VPI 16.5 & I think that it is average. I've had it for over 2 yrs now & cleaning 2nd-hand LPs is a royal PITA with this machine. Sometimes 5 times is not enough! I give up & just listen with the pops... | |
| Any experience with Gryphon amps ? Frank,Thanks! I couldn't remember exactly & was doubtful when I wrote the weight (hence the >100 lbs! ;-) ). I have a pix of the amp in my mind's eye & yes, it certainly looked like a 200 pounder with some very sharp cooling fins! | |
| Any experience with Gryphon amps ? I've heard an all-Gryphon system when I was back home in Bombay this Feb. The power amp was the Gryphon Antillean Signature. A beast at > 100lbs of weight. 150W/ch all of it pure class-A. Beautiful sound. I wrote a very small synopsis of my exp... |
