| Review: Great Northern Sound Co. Wadia 860 CD Player good to read this! I, too, have a Wadia 860 (upgraded to an 861 now) that I am considering to send to Steve for a further upgrade. | |
| A question of power if i'm not mistaken, USA voltage is spec'd to +/-5% of 120V (someone correct me if i'm wrong). so, your voltage readings are a bit on the high side. take some measurements over the course of 1 week & see if you have consistently high readings.... | |
| Ramsey Lewis Trio - Finest Hour Hey Ferrari,yesterday I received the "Finest Hour" CD (Verve label) & it really is very good! The "the 'in' crowd" track really got me going & I can see why he received a Grammy in 1966 for it! Good recommendation. Thanks! | |
| New speaker with imaging IMHO, Squidboyw has offered the best advice so far. Given that you have NOT told us anything about what you have done to improve the sound thru you M804 speakers, we have to assume that you did nothing! Might be a very bad assumption but you gave ... | |
| Convergent Audio Preamps I can't tell you how each iteration changed the overall character 'cuz I have not heard many of them. However, I can say that the each iteration made the CAT SL1 pre sound even better & less noisy (from several conversations with Ken Stevens).... | |
| In what ways modern speakers better the old Tannoy I agree w/ Gregm: the older Tannoys are really superb! The latest renditions of their portfolio are still very good but in comparison to the same model made further back in time, the present day cabinets seem to be made cheaper materials-wise. Thu... | |
| Irving Bud Fried has died Trelja would know this for sure since he recently joined Bud Fried's team. Trelja is this true? Thanx. | |
| EH 6550's? Hmmmmm....most people say that the Tung-Sol solid black plate 6550 is the best & right next to that is the re-issue Tung-Sol from New Sensor Corp.Is my info wrong?????BTW, I have heard the new/re-issue Tung-Sol in a push-pull power amp twice w... | |

| What do you listen to when no one else can hear it Nrchy,I tried to get a copy here in the USA & drew a blank each time. So, when I was vacationing in Switzerland some time back, I ended up buying all my Reinhard Fendrich & Muenchener Freiheit CDs in Zurich. What was amazing was that NOBOD... | |
| What do you listen to when no one else can hear it Reinhard Fendrich "Wart' bis hamlich wird und stü" from his "Wien bei Nacht" album.Sung in Austrian German, most find it hard to understand the accent but is a very emotional song. | |
| Who makes an active speaker that isn't ported? DB,One more name to your list (a name who has perhaps been a pioneer in this active loudspeaker technique): Boothroyd-Stuart Meridian's DSP8000AFAIK, this active speaker is a sealed box (atleast reading the info posted on their website)http://www.... | |
| ASC tube trap: which's reflect or absorb side? The silver button indicates the reflective side as correctly stated by Fmpnd. However, if these are original ASC tube traps & well maintained then there should be a sticker on one of the end caps that clearly states which hemisphere is absorpt... | |
| Tara Labs Master Gen 2+ speaker cable Hey Bigtee,If you are the one who lives in Goose XXX, SC then I was the fellow who bought your Master Gen II interconnects way back when!! I still have them & really like them. Now your comment on the Decade being clearly superior to the MS Ge... | |
| What does listening to a speaker really tell us? "If it is to get the most neutral reproduction of music, you might make one set of choices. If it is to get the greatest pleasure from listening to music, you might make different choices."In my books these 2 options are THE same thing! IMO, the m... |
