| Audiophile Liquidator....OK?? Caveat emptor. The photograph on their website does not match the address given for their 'corporate office', which is in fact the address of a health food store in San Francisco, as I have been told by a well known audio manufacturer. Further, no... | |
| Audio Research D-52B Manual? Have you called ARC? Some years ago they had a manual for one of their old tube crossovers I had and didn't even charge anything to send a photocopy. Good luck and listening!Brian | |
| Amps for Avalon Osiris CAT JL3, Boulder 2060, Dart Hodelrecords, it's good to hear your Fouriers are doing well. They are good sounding amps, maybe a bit on the dark side. The original power supply high voltage electrolytic caps were a brand called Binda, sourced from India, so it sounds as though... | |
| Roger Sanders is back Thanks for sharing the good news, Angela. It's great that Roger is back doing what he loves, and I can't wait to see what else he comes up with.Brian | |
| Has anyone ever had Reimyo gear repaired? Most of the time service is done by the distributor's technician in Niagara Falls, NY. On rare occasions does something have to be sent to Japan. The equipment is built very well.Brian | |
| Wavestream phono Rich, contact your nearest Einstein dealer and audition The Turntable's Choice phono stage. No lack of "balls" and as sweet and open as you can imagine, and very quiet as well. Another phono stage which I believe will be shown in Las Vegas for the... | |
| How good is the Lector CD player? The Mk II is user upgradable to Mk III by changing out a chip. | |
| How good is the Lector CD player? Fanfare Int'l (Victor Goldstein) was the former distributor for Lector. Aaudio Imports is the distributor as of a few months ago and has been ordering product regularly, although demand has been high. As a dealer for Lector I am eagerly awaiting t... | |
| ASR Basis Exclusive or Einstein The TT's Choice I have the balanced version of the Einstein phono stage, while others I know have the single ended version. I haven't heard them side by side, although Sabertouch's description of the differences is in line with what I have been told. The dual pow... | |
| ASR Basis Exclusive or Einstein The TT's Choice Rich, let's just say all the other Einstein components are tube based, while the phono stage isn't. I would put it up against *any* phono stage, tube or solid state, regardless of price.Brian | |
| ASR Basis Exclusive or Einstein The TT's Choice The Einstein phono stage, available in either single ended or balanced version, has two pairs of input connectors, one pair of which are used for plugging in the load resistors. Four pairs of load resistors are provided: 40, 85, 150, and 300 ohms,... | |
| Consumer Electronic Show ? Nrchy, you are putting words in my mouth. I have been attending CES for well over 20 years and will continue to attend.Brian | |
| Consumer Electronic Show ? Nrchy, the purposes of RMAF and CES are quite different. RMAF is consumer oriented, while CES is for the trade. At CES some high end audio companies choose to have static displays only, although most try to demonstrate. Show conditions being what ... | |
| ASR Basis Exclusive or Einstein The TT's Choice I haven't compared the Einstein against the ASR, but it has stood up to other competition here. Dead quiet, dynamic, great weight and image density, very musical and harmonically fleshed out. Einstein has been around in Germany for at least 15 yea... | |
| If boulder is tops what is second tier? I would put the Einstein up against any of them, not just because I'm a dealer.Brian |
