| Tripping Breakers Are you sure that you did not add a lamp or some other electrical consumer to the circuit? I was having a similar problem until I put in dedicated lines. In another room every time my wife turned on a few lights, I threw the breaker because I was ... | |
| Carpet or not I like the flexibility of a large area rug that extends three feet or so past the speaker position. You can move it around if you notice something odd. Made a big difference for me since I have hardwood floors to add a rug. I notice a softer more ... | |
| Damaged B&W Nautilus 803... B&W will help you if you call them as well. Take your time and just do things slowly and enhjoy them. | |
| Sansui AU-919 / AU-719 I have both tuners as well as a bunch of others. My suggestion is to get one off Audiogon from a reputable person that has already been upgraded. If you buy it off Ebay, I bet you will pay the same price for a tired unit.Good luck. | |
| Damaged B&W Nautilus 803... I had great luck by calling B&W directly for a plastic clip for my N802s. Price was $5.40 plus shipping. Same part was $62 locally. I suggest you call them and find out how much the tweeter costs then decide.B&W Group North America54 Conco... | |
| If you had to pay full retail, would you...??? There is a real advantage to buying equipment from local dealers that you can establish a level of trust with over years. The difficulty on high end equipment is finding a great dealer. Then you will not be paying full retail because a good dealer... | |
| Speaker Cable for BW N802 and JC1 I tried a bunch of things over the years and finally went with Kubala-Sosna Emotion. I did like these Pure Note cables as well but the KS were better, just very pricey. | |
| Bose Wave Music system I bought a used one for my office and it is just fine. Not great but other people tell me all that time that it sounds great. I think the sound is a bit open with a lack of detail and really sloppy bass responce. But I am comparing it to a $70000 ... | |
| Mainstream reviews-why so few? I think buzz creates the demand for reviews, and buzz is created from advertising and shows, and big companies have lot's of money for advertising and shows so that is likely the reason. I rarely believe in conspiracy theories, except Roswell of c... | |

| Bob Dylan finally makes sense.... I have never understood why Bob Dylan seems to be loved or hated only. Not to many, "whaterever" responses about him. I just love him and think his humble opinion of himself and his life is amazingly refreshing for a person so worshipped by so man... | |
| Can I expect to pay full retail for a new system? I would start off with telling the sales rep everything you want in detail and then tell him you want his best price. If there are no alternative dealers where you have less pull. A package is always the best way to get the best price. Remember he... | |
| any DAC recommend for around $1000-1300? I know everyone always blows away the budget number, but I had the Birdland and it was great for the money. I then tried a demo Reimyo DAP-777 that I got for about $2500. There is a new model now that you can get for $3000 or so so I bet the older... | |
| Starting a high-end audio shop... Am I crazy? As someone that started a business when I was 36, although not a high end audio, this thread struck a cord. You have to have a few things to be able to make any startup work. First, you have to either be single or have a partner that completely be... | |
| Perreaux or Bryston? I think Bryston is the best value in amps. Great product, great resale value, great csutomer service, you just can't go wrong with them. |
