| The Cyclicality of Black Vs Silver WAF makes more of a difference. A while back some studies suggested that wife's choice was black. I am sure it has something to do with 'the little black dress'. I know, letting your wife choose the color is a cheap way to get acceptance of your h... | |
| OPPO 83SE vs Anthem D1 DACS The future is blu-ray, so it is that DAC element that is important. | |
| UHA Reel to Reel/Tape Project opinions I don't think it is worth the investment. I have reel to reel playback equipment, Technics and Teac. I do like the sound and I am sure Tape Project media would be even better. I do have some two track, 15 ips broadcast tapes and the cd and vinyl e... | |
| Should I Try a Tube Preamp? Yes, a nice way to start would be with one of the Cayin units. Great sound and value. You can get one for less then $1000. Easy to sell if you don't like it. | |
| How to isolate bookshelf speakers on a bookshelf Moon Gel is the way to go. This product will isolate better than anything on the market, very inexpensive too. It can be found at the pro music stores, 123 Music or Musicians Friend, in the section where drummer acessories are sold. Go on line to ... | |
| Why can't all/most recordings be this good? Because they are, for starters, compressed. Maybe a new labeling requirement should be whether they are or not compressed. Often, if you compare an issued Cd againist the same music on an SACD, the difference will leap at you.Lastly, some engineer... | |

| Glass&Steel and just ugly audio furniture With 'no mouth piece hovering over you', choices are much easier. Glass & Steel are out, entirely. While there are good choices in wood audio furniture, like those on the CayinUSA site, they tend to be expensive since none are produced in any ... | |
| Shopping for a new netbook or laptop... Be serious, pick the Mac, which is the choice of most people who are audio engineers. Audio software is mostly developed for the Mac. Don't even think about net's. One problem with the Mac, BluRay, which is where the future of high resolution soun... | |
| Phono Stage Question The audio research PH units let you change capacitance. The PH7 lets you do it on the fly, via remote control. I had a PH3SE and changing the capacitance was done changing the resistors. | |
| XLR waste of time ? And money, too. | |
| Oppo BDP-83SE or Sony SCD-XA5400ES? oppo SE, Sony not even close now. The balance on Sony, in my opinion does not add anything. It the chips, chips etc. You need to get up to $10K plus to beat the oppo. | |
| Good beginer table, that I can upgrade? A great TT is the Denon 47F. Upgradable? No. In the used market these go for about $250 but only one that can be picked up is worth buying. The only upgrade that will be necessary is a good record clamp, a SOTA. When you want to move up better to ... | |

| help w/amp demo What a way to go. Wish a had a 'Sounds Real' type dealer in my area, one that comes to your system. That is the best way to determine whether a significant improvement in your system sound can be achieved. |
