| Amplifier for Klipsch Cornwalls Look for a used Cayin 50 or 70. They are a great match for Klipsch speakers. | |
| Netbook to USB DAC to Headphone Amp on Batteries Great responses. Be concerned that if you do airline travel with all these 'boxes' you will shortly be running afoul of the many new security measures that will hit travelers. The 'no lap stuff' rule will most likely ban anything you are thinking ... | |
| Blu-ray music discs check out the 'L2' blu ray disks, they are two channel and come with an SACD so you can check on the difference. | |
| Proac 1SC vs Dynaudio Focus 140 I am partial to the ProAc. I have heard the Dynaudio and it was too 'dry', ProAc being warmer. Maybe since I was using tubes, the interaction leaned to ProAC. I would try both in your system in an A/B test. Both of these speakers have great re-sal... | |
| New Cartridge = right channel distortion Replacement is the way to go, as investing anymore time would be silly. Hopefully your dealer will cooperate as my experience with Clearaudio leaves much to be desired. So much so that I would never buy a ClearAudio product again and tell that to ... | |
| Looking for a good place to start Cayin as an amp. There are many good speakers that match with them. Watch for a used one, great sound, great value. | |
| Wondering about adding surround back spkrs. You must first read Floyd Toole's 'Sound Reproduction' book. Floyd is the authority on speaker placement. Your are already on the right track in that it is the placement that makes the difference. | |
| vpi super SSM rim drive vs grand prix monaco The only rim drive that I have actually seen in operation was a disappointment in the that motor drive vibration was being transferred to the platter. Since I was not familiar with the sound of the system it was being demo on, it was hard to tell ... | |
| ProAc Response 1SC Amp I have the 1sc. I drive them with three different tube amps. The main amp is a pair of sound valves (Dyanco design) mono blocks M60's, which I purchased over ten years ago for about $1K. They often appear on e-bay for about $500. Sound great. I al... | |
| Recommendation for speaker wire upgrade Come to your senses! A quick, inexpemsive trip to Home Depot for purchase of their 12 gauge speaker wire is needed to finally put your 'cable monster' to rest. Keep an open mind, please. It will change your audio life, forever. | |
| Review: Oppo BDP 83 CD Player Without a comparison to the SE model, the upgrades may be a waste of money and time. Anybody thinking about doing mods to the SE, and if so, what improvement are you expecting. I have heard the SE and do not think it can be improved much. | |
| Bass reinforcement for very large room Time to stop fooling around with the 'little' guys. Go directly to the JBL Everest speakers. Big room, big speakers. These speakers were in the Kimber room at RMAF 2009. They are not horned loaded base, they use conventional 15 inch base units in ... | |
| Auditioning a Tube Amp Must do the audition in your system, so get a dealer loan. ake a look at Cayin, great sound and value. | |
| Best Record Store In New York J&R, great selection, great values. If you spend over $200, and ask they will generally ship it out for free. | |
| Best surround processor $2-2.5K used ???? Onkyo Integra DTC-9.8, of 9.9. It does not get any better then this as a good value. No need to go above $1K. |
