| Speaker Ideas upto $2500 Folks,I apologize if my earlier posts caused any distress. I guess I over-reacted to a post by one of the contributors. I realize now that I probably should have posted my message in another section.Hapaknack, good luck with your search. There are... | |
| Speaker Ideas upto $2500 Tvad,I understand your points, and I did not mean to come off as negative or dismissive. But I sure that you will agree that of all the collective parts involved an audio system, speakers are the hardest to blindly recommend and make any assumptio... | |
| Speaker Ideas upto $2500 Bzzzzz (buzzer sound)Wrong answer - all of 'em. These threads continually crack me up. We can't and shouldn't tell you what you should buy. Only your ears can do that. All you are going to get from us is what WE like, and that might be a far cry f... | |
| anyone use ikea for lp racks? >>Can anyone who owns one comment on whether the frame would support adding casters?Look again on the IKEA web site - I'm pretty sure that they offer casters as an option. You might have to search under Expedit to see all of the options and ... | |

| Recommend speakers for a restaurant sound system One thing I forgot to mention: if you are planning to locate speakers throughout the restaurant space and wire them up to a "central" amp, consider using powered monitors instead. No cable length/timing/impedence issues to worry about, and if you ... | |
| SS phono stage in $2k to $3k range... Here's my bargain tip: The SS best phono stage I ever heard was a the integrated phino stage built into the Motif MC-8 preamp. Motif was Conrad-Johnson's high end experimemt in the 1980s, and it was fantastically built. They typically go for less ... | |
| Recommend speakers for a restaurant sound system I have a little experience in this area, and I agree with Millicurie. Unless you are opening a supper club or dinner theater, music will just be background noise and no one is really going to notice the quality of your music delivery.Also, with su... | |
| Beatles covers: better than originals? Not better, but Side 2 of the Concert for George CD is mighty good. Eric Clapton, Tom Petty, Ringo, Paul, Billy Preston and more. A great man's great music, performed with love by some of his friends. What a wonderful tribute. | |
| Apogeee/Bryston Advice needed Well, I'm going to agree and disagree with Muralman1. You don't need a lot of power for your Apogee hybrids - unless you want anywhere near decent bass response.If you were open to tubes, you could have a great sounding system with something like ... | |

| Good stores in LA Here's my $.02 worth - most of the high-end audio stores in L.A. went out of business (or appt. only; almost the same thing) because they got too snooty. Prices too high, service too low, and they forgot how to attrect new customers.Here are the s... | |
| Audio Research or Conrad Johnson Tube Pre-Amp??? IMHO, you shouldn't try and pick audio components on other folks recommendations. Are we going to listen for you too? You need to use your own ears, and there is simply no substitute for that. If you chose something that is recommended to you on t... | |
| ARC with CJ? I have paired both an ARC LS-15 and LS-25 with a CJ MF2200. It sounded fine. I recently bought a used Sonographe SA-400 on eBay that I am going to test w/ the LS-15."Why would you do that?"... I suspect that some of the previous posters are shocke... |
